WOAH WOAH WOAH, you NAILED the mood! Normally I'm impatient during cutscenes, but your opening was spot on, and really put me in the right vibe to travel through your maze. Speaking of, I also love mazes so this was wonderful. The sound on the nothing box was really satisfying, too. I think I would have loved to have been able to sprint or something, since wrong turns happen in mazes. But, overall, super cool! (Good name too :D)
So.. is cinematography the right word? Cause whatever that was it was soooo good. Amazing atmosphere, love the movement on the big shrub models, the overall style of this game was just incredible.
Would love to see more levels, especially if some puzzle elements were added. This has serious potential and I hope you expand on it after the jam is over.
Very nice looking game. The graphics, audio, and general atmosphere are fantastic and all work together well. I definitely got lost, and it would have been nice if I could move a bit faster after reaching a complete dead end.
Lovely game, smooth, mysterious, and moody. Nice animation and cinematics. However, there should be a way to skip the intro if you die. The enemies killed me couple of times, so I had to watch the scene over and over again.
Really beautiful. Love the art direction, the mood and atmosphere.
I was ok with the intro the first time, but there really needs to be a way to skip it subsequent times. I know I know this is a game jam, but that makes it even more important, honestly. After I died a second time, I just called it. Was curious to know what was at the end of the maze, it looked interesting over there.
Really nice atmoshpere, beautiful music and dound design !! I need more !!
Thanks for the feedback everyone! This was a lot of fun to work on. @trevor-shoe, As soon as I have a bit of spare time, I'll see about adding the option to skip cutscenes.
Nice atmosphere and concept. I don't like the music (found it oppressive) and the graphisms were cool. Good work. Oh and btw itch.io say that you update it 10 hours ago... Is it normal ? It's far after the end of the Ludum...
First of all, the camera work is insane at the end, I definitely did not see that coming. Environment and level layout is great, the concept of walking through a maze is good, but better when there is enemies lurking around, giving the player this tension. Moreover, the concept of using nothing as something is very interesting, so great job on that. Nevertheless, great game and hope you guys have fun while making it.
when I use the casket, stunned enemies sometimes move to some point. Enemies are not dangerous at all, the maze is almost linear. The game is played in about 5 minutes, which is good. So, the game is just a walk from one point to another. About graphics, mood and sound and I will not talk, and it is clear that everything is very beautiful.
The cinematics are awesome. Lovely game.
Super nice mood and atmosphere, and the graphics are really good ! Congrats :)
Excellent mood and music.
I got some serious flashbacks from the hedge maze in the original Alone in the Dark game!
The movement could have been a little bet better, would have loved to be able to step back and maybe walk a little bit faster there are some weirdness in the animations and some clipping going on, but still very impressive in the time frame.
I love the setting and low-poly graphics! The mood set was also really nice. My only complaints are that controlling the character is sometimes weird and sometimes the hedge would get in the way, blocking the my view of where I was going. Overall, great job!
Great music and a good idea with cutscenes, the game is easy, I wanted more.
I tried running it, but it asked me to download "DirectX Runtime". Then it came up with a window asking me to agree to Unreal Engine 4 Prerequisites - I wasn't doing that! (Maybe because I use Unity...) I would have loved to play this game.
