10/10 WOULD PLAY IN A DARK ROOM AGAIN
Mood = 5/5
really cool mood
I do not see how the theme was implemented....
wow!!!!
I got stuck at the phone part :/ great mood you set up.
thanks for playing guys! the phone part is pretty dumb, the clues are 'H', 'menu' and 'escape'. should have made them clearer but my mic is terrible. hope this helps!
Not sure where '10 seconds' but the atmosphere in this game was fantastic. It had me feeling the things described. Very good job there.
creepy... nice sound effects
Disconnected from the theme, but pretty awesome mood you set in there !
Very good mood setting!
I'm also stuck on the sound puzzle, is it something that require knowledge of the american phone system (i.e. a menu key that is also a number for landlines?)
thanks! and nope, the sound puzzle only requires knowledge of rpgs i guess, its mostly about where you're looking! i'm writing a post-mortem, so will put the answer there for everyone who is stuck! there's a lot more after the sound puzzle i'd like people to see!
Nice graphics, the puzzle was just too much for me!! Nice work!!
Yeah, I really really tried to get past the phone, but it was seriously cryptic and I couldn't figure it out. The atmosphere, music, and even visuals are really coherent and I was having lots of fun with it tho. Can't wait to have the solution!
It's as surreal as I expected it to be but I'm also stuck at the phone puzzle. I'll check back later for the solution and will give it another go.
Great atmosphere to this one, it was surprisingly effective in what it set out to do. Definitely do more with this one if you can, I'd like to see where you could take it with a little more time. Nice work!
thanks a lot for playing! i'm really glad you enjoyed the mood.
the solution to the phone puzzle is at the end of my post-mortem

it's in stars so you can find it easily! i hope it helps you understand my silly mindset when making it!
Nice ambient sound, it would help if when I tried to interact with something that wasn't interactable if I got some feedback to let me know I was doing it wrong. Good job!
I hope it'll be ok if I will make a 3d version of it? And with better graphics. It was very atmospheric, I enjoyed playing it. However your game is disconnected from the theme.
This is not the kind of game I'm really into, but it's definitely come together enough that it feels like a lot more than a weekend went into it. Good stuff!
Loved the mood of this, special graphics, I like the minimalist style. Nice storyline, you write pretty well! I liked it and immersed myself in it.
OK, so I managed to finish the game, I liked it a lot, your writing is very good and the minimalist art style adds a lot to the atmosphere.
Awesome game. It definitely reminded me a lot of playing RPG's on the SNES.
u have a mood for sure and that is very hard to do
It's a little spooky and the puzzles don't make much sense, but I liked it.
I wish it wasn't fullscreen by default because fullscreen applications screw up the window management on Windows XP.
Not much to do with the theme as far as I could tell. But it was a great little game! Lots of mood and the simple drawings only made it more creepy. Nice work :) It reminded me of something I can't quite remember...
surrealistically crude and atmospherically haunting. a personal and cogent entry. nice work!
