This has a nice atmosphere to it, feels very polished.. but I have no idea what I'm supposed to do. I managed to get to some airlock, and ended up in some very dark place where I got hopelessly lost.

Very nicely done, just I need a map or radar to help me find stuff!
Lovely! Really good atmosphere. The dark stage is annoying though. I somehow found the way onwards and activated the wall.
But then it looks like i got caught.
Really well done, esp. for 48h only!
Cool game, though a little too hard to tell what to do or where, especially in the dark area.
This was great! I started off curious, but by the end it was really terrifying :O. The manipulating and looking mechanics worked out really well, especially with the sound effects signaling when you couldn't do anything.
I think the dark parts could use a little tweaking, if only just to make it a little easier to tell where the walls were. It made things scarier, but at the same time I got a little frustrated trying to figure out where I could go.
Just a controls issue, I think it would have helped a lot to let people look up and down slightly, because the way it's constrained the mouse-look feels a little awkward.
Also, from reading your post-mortem I see what the 'feature' you added was for, and it definitely accomplished its purpose for me, but it makes it hard to let other people try the game.
Wonderfull... Really loved it... :) Sound was great, gameplay was interesting... really was wondering what was going on...
Top notch polish aswell...
looks fairly intriguing! i would really like to try your game... too bad i'm getting always the following errors:
"failed to load plugin C:...Tempcap6B.tmp4.csx (126)", when i start the game.
and
"failed to load plugin XAudio2.csx" when i try to run the game out of Construct.
:/
Oh my, this was surprisingly engaging! Very effective atmosphere. Loved the dark part... and what happens afterwards.
Loved the Wolfenstein graphics.
this is really good. it becomes really stressful towards the end - speeding up the player's breathing sounds is really effective. high resolution textures on blocky landscapes always produce a very alien-feeling environment. it reminds me of marathon, which might explain why i was so prepared to like it.
is the face at the end yours? if so, that's a pretty appropriate way for the player to die - you're the architect of the player's death, after all. i liked signing the waiver, and seeing what had become of it when i opened the construct file.
I was very impressed by this game. I admit that I wouldn't have enjoyed it nearly as much if I hadn't seen and used the map, so maybe I'm biased by stuff from after the judging... but I loved it. And at the end... well, I didn't see that coming. Took me by surprise! :)
Great atmosphere, intriguing gameplay and plenty of polish - well done!
This is excellent, and also technically quite impressive considering the short timeframe you made it in. I really enjoyed the atmosphere, and the breathing noises add to it a lot.
I only figured out that you could right-click stuff to examine it a while in, so it would have been nice to be told that.
Unfortunately I also got stuck in the dark area after the airlock; my laptop screen is usually way too bright, but even with it I couldn't make out much more than a few lit walls amongst a sea of darkness. Which is a shame, because I really wanted to see the rest, but after wandering around aimlessly for a couple of minutes and getting the feeling that I was moving in circles I got annoyed and quit.
But still, one of my favorites of the entries I've played so far! Maybe I'll retry it later.
Great stuff! The dark area was a bit annoying, but other than that I enjoyed it. Those statues are intimidating. The wall at the end was perfect. I kept wanting to left click things and hoping they would react or something would happen, but you really can only interact with doors. The audio kept the tension level high. Good job, sir :)
I get "failed to load plugin C:...Tempcap6B.tmp4.csx (126)" under vista64 with the latest DX/Net/XNA/Yourmom installed. I really want to try this, any ideas?
Really nice atmosphere (breathing! perfect...) and graphics. Controls are fine, everything -- I was a little confused about what to do, but really I feel like that added to the effect. It definitely got tenser as things went on; perfect job of building up excitement and sucking me into the world. Creepy, somehow. Surprisingly so.
