Ranked from 42 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does you game fit the theme?
The game fits the theme through it's narrative and setting. You play in a boys mind, trying to escape his self-forged cage of depression, anxiety, and fear. This cage is not real, and is instead a trap of his own mental creation.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No, the music, sfx, and transitions were taken from assets I bought off of the Unity Asset Store.

Such an cute game, puzzles are not too hard, the story is full of emotion and visuals fit perfctly to all of that. At a moment, I thought levels will be composed to make a drawing of the brother or something. Maybe levels who visually match with the text in which case levels can seem a bit repetitive. But just a bit really. But otherwise well done ^-^

Hey!

First of all, congrats for finishing the game! I have to say, this was so good. I love the music, the visuals, the atmosphere, the puzzles, every bit of it! I tried to speedrun it and I think I managed to finish it pretty fast. You have to make this into a full game, with more story, more puzzles, harder difficulty... I wish it was longer ^_^ It's a very polished and beautiful game, very well done, one of the best!

It would be really awesome to have you playing my game too, if you don't mind of course. ^_^

oh this is so good, the puzzle and the story kept me engaged until the end. the mechanic is so interesting. I really like the way it delivers the text too.

the only two small problem that I had was that I was too engaged into solving the puzzle and I lost a few lines, and I thought the trampoline was a portal at first because the way it looks and I think that the first time they appear you jump from one to the other. not sure if it is even worth noting tho.

this is my favorite entry so far, I really hope you win this!

Well, it was certainly interesting. Not very challenging but it grabbed my attention and I finished it. Didn't expect to feel sad playing game jam games so I guess your narration hit some sweet spots... Nice job, hope your are doing well!
