Nice game, nice concept

kptemre 2016-12-12 14:02

Artylo, I couldn't open it . I mean I have downloaded exe and opened it. I saw a spinning room and everything but I couldn't find the correct button to start the game. It is windowed mode atm. Maybe it is breaking up something. I am using dual monitors and it opens it in the middle of monitors. half on left - half on right (ofc I can pull it as a window but maybe that's why I can't interact with it)

Works on Wine. I enjoyed the aesthetics.

boddiul 2016-12-12 14:04

The best point'n'click I've seen this LD so far! Nice mood and concept

starlight-glimmer-is-best-poney 2016-12-12 14:05

@kptemre the button shows up when you move your mouse to the bottom of the screen; move your window to a single monitor maybe.

I've got the same problem as @kptemre. I pressed every key and button, but nothing happens. So the feedback is going to be based on the title screen.

The spinning room could use some better graphics. The pixels are clearly visible and aren't very nice to look at. The font isn't always readable. For example, the 37 at the top looks more like an 'n'.

I tried it on Wine/Linux, and sadly it said "Cabinet not valid". (This is not a complaint, given that you didn't say it was Linux-compatible, but I thought I'd give it a try.)

nnnnneeeedddd 2016-12-12 15:52

I moved my mouse to the bottom of the screen, a little circle comes up, but I can't click it. Also, the sound stopped working the third time I tried running it. The aesthetics look brilliant though

This game is really relaxed and peaceful. I love it. Well done.

Very interesting,, this gamplay sistem reminded me VR games.

nycolas 2016-12-12 16:01

Graphisms interesting and nice concept. Good job.

artylo 2016-12-12 16:22

I couldn't say anything about Linux or Mac OSX compatibility. It seems to be a hit or miss situation for both operating systems. Development time was a factor, and sadly I lack the tools to port efficiently.

modernman 2016-12-12 16:31

Aesthetics were nice.

lukbebalduke 2016-12-12 16:46

Same here, dual monitors, best thing I've done! Hahaha, nice "game", even I would consider it more like... something that you experience that a proper game. I really liked the art style and the artistic felling behind it all.

kebb 2016-12-12 16:49

Nice game, good job!

jimmothysanchez 2016-12-12 17:24

I really liked this one. Is there an end state though? I think I found all of the things there are to find but it never gave me a message saying so. Maybe I missed one?

pusty 2016-12-12 18:38

Great entry! I just love games with narration :D

creativwhisper 2016-12-12 19:34

Interesting, i like this type of games. Very personal. The interaction system is very cool and well developed.

artsicle 2016-12-12 19:35

Cool concept

drsnuggles 2016-12-12 19:51

Wow, nice game. I like your teenage voice :-)
Why i can't rate Innovation?

mrevilguy 2016-12-13 00:27

This is like dinner date without the dinner. I liked the voice overs and and the graphics, but I hope you do actually read all those books!!!

plaw 2016-12-13 03:23

Thoughtful :)

uliana-galich 2016-12-13 19:26

Really cool game mechanics and it's a somewhat challenging game, which is a good thing! Also, it's fun.

cxsquared 2016-12-14 21:55

This was really fun. It had just enough of a Stanley Parable feel while still feeling original. The writing was spot on in this.

kappaix 2016-12-14 21:58

Really interesting! Found it tough to get past the title screen, after that I enjoyed myself.

You did a good job with the voice acting and the low-key music. Definitely fit the theme and I quite liked the aesthetics as well.

Well done, thanks for sharing!

boltkey 2016-12-14 21:59

I love the graphical style of it. Also, I am glad I am not the only weirdo who has had a plank of wood in his room for years for no reason whatsoever. I don't know whether I "finished" this game, but I think I found all the places already. There should be some progress indicator perhaps... Also, kinda good music. Loved the narrative.

blaster391 2016-12-14 22:02

Liked the cheeky 4th wall breaking, and the art style was very interesting. It's a great effort and fairly different from any of the other games I've played so far

bigpan 2016-12-14 22:12

I had a really hard time starting the game, the title screen was tricky. The game/concept itself is ok, it fits the theme perfectly and the narration is nice, but I felt it's lacking something. Nonetheless, congratz!

hempuli 2016-12-15 20:48

A fairly melancholical experience! It was interesting to realize that I was exploring the developer's own room, and listening to your occasionally witty descriptions of things there was nice, especially after reading your foreword in the description. It took me some time to realize how to get forward from the title screen.

nilead 2016-12-15 20:52

Looks nice visually and the narration is cool, although what is the objective? Is there an end game, anything to do besides spinning around the room? Cool narrative experience nonetheless.

guigs 2016-12-15 20:53

Nice narrative and visual. Good Job!

afinkyu_pheaky 2016-12-15 21:00

Nice and relaxed from the visuals all the way to the dialog. The second monitor truly is a great investment.

stylo21 2016-12-16 08:48

Interesting concept, great narrative.

deathbysnail 2016-12-16 12:01

Another Ludum Dare voice acting game! There aren't enough people doing voice overs in this compo, I really enjoyed this :)

mr-madcat-2 2016-12-20 11:12

Cool idea.
I actually really like the look of the game.
It has something very unique about it.
And the voice over was pretty good too.
With a bit more "gameplay" (however you want to define that) this could be really amazing.
Keep up the good work!

minato4th 2016-12-21 20:58

Hello! I done some update for my game you can try it by downloading Windows PostCompo on game page
http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-37/?action=preview&uid=125051

mrwillowb 2016-12-22 05:50

Nice art boring game play.

tkachov 2016-12-31 10:27

Pretty nice. I'm not really into walking simulators, but this looks and sounds very good. I think you can do an adventure game with controls/graphics similar to this.

Btw, played that on 16:9, though I've used Alt+Enter to enter fullscreen mode and it was just 4:3 in the center with black bars on the sides.

yuigoto 2017-01-02 18:44

Looks really cool and feels a bit like some click'n point games like Myst for me. :P The soundtrack is also pretty relaxing.

As a non-native english speaker, I sometimes have problems when games like this one don't have subtitles, but this one's pretty clear and the voiceovers are really easy to understand. :)

Good work there!

jupiter_hadley 2017-01-10 18:31

Nice graphics and voice! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/xG2aiO_VsBw
