Nice game :D
This was really very well done. Sound was excellent, graphics were amazing, fitted the theme really well. Solid game.
Reminded me a lot of Lone Survivor. Very good job! :D
Man! I liked it lots! The moodiest piece I've seen so far in this LD! But... I met "that thing", threw "that thing" at it, and couldn't progress any further. I dunno what I was supposed to do but I went back the way I came and nothing happened. So... Didn't see very much!
Good job though guys! Atmospheric!
This has a super great mood and presentation! I really liked it! I couldn't get past blob man, I tried 3 times and couldn't get it. Cool non-the-less!
The whole mood of the game is excellent, through the use of nice artwork, and sound design that absolutely nails it. Seriously, the sound was spot on.
I have some issues with the gameplay, in particular the combined unexpected deaths and the long waiting times between death and when you get back to a point where you do anything except just walk forwards. While I can respect that this adds a whole level of magnitude to each death, making you think over any decision which might kill you quite carefully, some aspects of the game can be quite counter-intuitive, meaning some of the deaths feel a bit frustrating.
Overall, a good game which could be made excellent if you somehow solved the aforementioned problem. Excellent mood, and even better sound design!
the mood is amazing and the art is great and the noise is phenomenal. But when i died on the blob the game was over for me and i didnt want to walk all the way back. a bit confused.
Very nice sound, gameplay a bit minimalist but I suppose necessary for the mood.
Yes, the mood is the best that I had seen in this LD, but the gameplay maybe is too slow and I don't know how to pass the Monster. A great game but with some flaws.
wow, at first I was like "pfff slooow" but when the trumpet player thing happend it really started to creep me out! very good job on mood/audio, and the graphics fit very well too! Very unique, good job!
It didn't work for me! :( This game looked really neat, too.
Been a while since a jam entry freaked me out so much. Is it possible to get past the pale thing? Feeding him rat corpse doesn't seem to work, same with bullets.
Wait, was that the point?
Wooo ! the mood is fantastic, simple but very effective sound design, nice graphism.
Great use of underground without it being obnoxious! Really not sure how to get past the damn blob, and getting back to him takes quite some time so I eventually gave up. Sorry :(
Pretty good!
Oh yeah... the mood is great. Awesome graphics and sound. Great team you have there. My only problem is that was too frustrating to come back slowly every death. Great entry, guys!
Excellent use of sound and ambiance. Awesomely detailed and pretty surprising to see such a polished game done for LD! Great work.
how do you get past the monster?
5 stars for mood definitely! :) I wish there were checkpoints, having to walk so slowly back to where you died was a bit tedious. But amazing game for such short time. :)
Really atmospheric, loved it!
Dark and tense. Love it. Also an interesting use of theme. Wondered if there was a story I missed; regardless, as a mood piece it works very well.
Can I kill the blob? At least I know he can kill me. It was nice, but having to go all the way again was a game breaker for me.
This was a very well made game, not only was it gorgeous the sounds were great and it was very interesting to play. The only small gripe I have is how long it takes to return back to where you came, but that's not a big deal.
This is by far the tensest, most well produced entry in the jam in terms of visual and sound design. I almost jumped twice, the first time when ther rat squeeked and then the trumpet player (NICE JOB!!!) But, as MonsieurS said, when I got killed by the blob thing and went back to the start, I felt I didn't want to do everything again at all. Especially when the pace is so slow. You should seriously add checkpoints since your games thrives on the element of surprise, going through all that again and again is just flat out boring after the first time. Still, very highly ranked for me!
Aha! The bat death made me laugh, a real laugh, drawn sharply like the plunger of a syringe that almost escapes the barrel. The trumpet player is sublime. The receding rain satisfying and pleasant. I wished for footstep sound, and the gun sounded small compared to the terrifying Rat. Minor quibbles. The BEAST, I did not know how to pass. Lovely mood, stark noirish sadness and doom.
Five stars for mood! Though when I got killed, I didn't really feel compelled to try again, because the walking is very slow and it's a bit boring with all the long stretches.
I... I died for a big and strange monster, and I shoot him!!!
So, I try again and this time, I killed the rat ^^
Fucking awesome
(however I don't like games with a order solution :/ )
Very good mood, well done. It's a great entry.
nice game and pixel art!
really nice feel but no idea how to get past the first monster - no hints anywhere - great job
Very atmospheric and nice looking. Good job.
