A nice horror game, although the story is a bit unclear; my own guess is about over taking drug and then **** **** (hope this is not a spoiler). The audio contributes a lot to the theme and feeling, nice work!
The last question is that I don't find relevance between the game/story and the "light switch" thing....
Hmmmmm.... interesting.
That got pretty gruesome. Looks pretty nice and the sound effects gave it a good atmosphere.
The progression could have used some work, it's way to easy to miss that one thing you need to check after checking everything else to trigger the next event. I missed to check the bed at first and thought I got stuck.
Also diagonal movement would've made it feel a bit smoother I think.
Pretty atmospheric game, I like the ambient sound effects and such. Graphics are well made. Reminds me of a 2D version of Gone Home. I feel like it lacked direction, though. I spent more time being completely lost and not knowing what to do than making progress. Pretty cool stuff though.
Good sound design, atmospheric lighting and graphics. The movement was a little clunky and the "interact" mechanic didn't always work intuitively. Game progression was kinda hard since you need to walk everywhere with that tedious pace and try to interact with everything. Nevertheless, a good entry with a very nice atmosphere.
Good idea but I am missing a bit of ambience and a bit more clues!
Awesome job with mood. I feel like I spent a lot of time wandering around interacting with random things, so that could probably be improved. Excellent work though.
Interesting game. I Included it in part 16 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/3EfYtGD2H88
Very well done! I actually got really into it and I got pretty creeped out. I had to shut it off before finishing. :O
Absolutely hated (that's a good thing) walking into rooms, since you couldn't see before you did.
The sounds were very appropriate and added a lot to the game. It could have used a bit more direction though, I had to walk back and forth many times at a very slow pace because I didn't know what to do. Still, awesome job!
Audio cues out of screen really added to the mood and tension, along with the audio. I do agree with others that the progression became a hunt and peck affair, where I was just spamming spacebar on items until I clicked the right one to trigger the next event. Overall interesting and intriguing experience.
