Didn't understand everything , but the idea is interesting and graphics look fantastic. Got stuck in the doorway at the end.

I just kept getting stuck on a room that only had text, and two things saying no choice. I tried all the patches but I couldn't get past this

@porcus-pie Thanks for giving my game a go. You need to hold down the space bar on either of the two choices The

@shephard-joseph Thanks, from the sprite work I was really excited to play this

I must admit I actually had a lot of fun with this game once I got it working. The core mechanics were really simple yet they worked really well, and the movement was spot on. It was very fluid and easy to control. The graphics as well worked really well, they were so simple yet at the same time they told you all the information you needed to know in the game area. The lack of sound was slightly dissapointing, and I feel even some music could work really well in this game. And it may be slightly obvious from my comments above, but some instructions would clear up some of the more confusing areas. I also found that when unloading into the van, sometimes it didn't unload, the counter would come up but nothing would happen. I am however sounding slightly negative, but I really had fun with this, and I would honestly really enjoy seeing a post-compo version being made.

P.S. In Gamemaker a lot of people often prefer using a zip file rather than an installer for LudumDare, it's just easier for the reviewers

got an error when i started the game and tried to interact:

___________________________________________ ############################################################################################ FATAL ERROR in action number 1 of Keyboard Event for D-key Key for object obj_player:

Moving to next room after the last room. at gml_Object_obj_player_Keyboard_68 ############################################################################################

@marjoriep Sorry to hear that. When I played around with the 1st release of the game I noticed I forgot to remove the D key from being used to skip to next room for debugging(ironic, i know). It saddly didn't work, crashed the game and i got the same error as you.

Controles are arrow keys + space bar to use + c for slower walk.

Thanks for giving the game a go and leaving some feedback. Next ludum dare i will put a screen with the controls at the start :) .

@porcus-pie Hey ! Thanks for giving it another shot. I appreciate you taking time to write up so much advice and having that much patience to come back for another go.

When it comes to sound and general explanation of the mechanics to the player, they ended up gettting pushed to the side to actually finish. I was creating the installer minutes before the deadline. I nearly cried when 15mns from the end i noticed deleted one of levels. Thank god for back ups !

Thanks for the tip for the folder. I can see how having to install, play and then uninstall a game on your computer could really put people off . I guess this is the kind of noob mistake i have to learn from - -'.

Anyway thanks again !

@shephard-joseph No problem, it's only fair we give each game a fair go. And yeah the sound didn't bother me too much and I guessed it was a time thing, it didn't affect the game at all.

Wanted to play, but the game required to make changes to my computer to run when installing through the itch-app and that is a no-go.

Would be awesome if this was available for other platforms as well. Also a web version would be great!

Had some trouble with it, crashed many times but I did managed to play it (a small screen with controls or something could be useful) I really liked the idea over all and the art/animations are good. Pretty good game, just sad that it's a bit inaccessible.

The game looks interresting, with nice mecanism. However, I got somewhat frustrated, mostly because death was too sudden (It took me a while to undertsand what was happening). But,it was still enjoyable. I liked the character's animation.
