A good start!
Top tip: when text is appearing, make the first mouse click show all of the line, not skip to the next line. I can read faster than it was appearing, so clicked to make it go faster, only to skip the end of the sentence!
Good to have some environmental audio in there.
Overall a good job. Nice one :)
This was so immersive despite the small flaws and "linearity" in animations. I was completely devastated when the game ended so fast. I need more of this! :)
Please, keep it as quiet and calm as it is. You can make a really dramatic game from this.
Nice, love the concept. A little bit too short in my opinion.
I want more, add some sounds! and a mirror to let the player identify with the char :)
Very good job on the graphics !
awesome, This really set a mood. I think you should go ahead and make a bigger game out of this :D
Really liked the immersion here. It's a shame it ends so soon, though I understand given the limitations. Are you considering turning this into a fully fledged game?
Thanks for the comments everyone! :D
@Aceria: that's a very good point about the text boxes. I'll keep that in mind when I get back to working on it!
@manabreak: I'm sorry I hurt you so bad, but I'm stoked that you were immersed in it! I was planning on adding in very minimalistic background music, but I'll have to keep in mind that the quiet adds to the drama.
@juaxix: I didn't trust my skills modelling humans... in fact, this may or may not be the reason the game is in first-person ;).
I am definitely hoping to work on this game further - the last 72+ hours have left me a little burnt out, so I'll be taking a few days off first, but after that I'm planning on getting back into it! I had an idea for the core concept of the game right when I started development, but unfortunately I didn't get time to even begin to implement it. I don't want to give too much away (I want it to be a bit of a surprise), but I'm hoping it'll make the game a bit special :)
Nice beginning. Really enjoyed playing this. Wanted more.
PSA: there was a bug with the Mac version which prevented it from launching. It should be fixed now :)
noddy2006: http://www.makehuman.org there's a nice program for creating human models, if you need any. :) In my opinion, background music would not be that good, considering how much feeling the ceiling fan noise alone added. Are you going to keep a dev journal somewhere (tigsource forums etc.)? :)
@manabreak: Cool! Thanks for the link, that looks pretty sweet. I'll see if I can work it in somehow :).
I wasn't planning on keeping a journal or anything, but I could post updates to my blog (samuelhindmarsh.wordpress.com) from time to time if enough people were interested! Regardless of whether I end up keeping a journal, I'll upload the latest build of the game each day I work on it to GitHub so you can always play the latest version if you are so inclined :P.
Great atmosphere. I was impressed at the potential scope of this game as far as the development and story. Would have liked to see a bit more of the narrative.
Text speed is a bit slow in my opinion and it would have been nice to skip the "intro" to be able to explore the room like you recommend. I clicked on a few things but most of them weren't too interactive so I left to work but... the game ends :(
WOW, the mood is incredible. And the graphics are very good too. I just think the game is a little shorty. Waiting patiently for the continuation.
Sweet!
Interesting, but There's not much gameplay. I want more!
Could you add a web-player based version?
cool but short
I like the style and the mood! Great start, really leaves you hanging on for more.
Game was decent, but i wish it had more!
Was really nice. I like this style of 3d point and click games. It was a shame it was so short, I was actually anticipating what happened next. Oh well, good job anyway!
