Neat little game, very good interpretation of the theme!
Assets could have been better... But Gameplay was good and a huge + for voice acting
STOP RIGHT THERE! -and read my comment! :P
It was just the right difficulty. I had to restart from the checkpoints several times, and without the minimap it would have been much harder. The sound track fit the vibes, and the robotic voices were great! For some reason the movement felt constrained, and I think that the walls had too much friction, but over all, it's a great game!
Very nice 3D graphics, so few games actually manage to create this many assets. Story is also a nice addition. Gameplay seems a bit difficult though.
I loved all the voice acting. It really helped to set the urgent tone. I appreciated the story, and how well the gameplay fit with it.
The controls felt good, and normal was a good difficulty for me. I made it through after maybe 10 deaths.
This was a great entry.
very good. can definitely tell a lot of work has been put into this one
That damn rat!!! I included it in my Ludum Dare 46 compilation video series, if you want to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/4GNiWeaqklM
Used your sources to compile on linux.
Great game!
Great intro and story, really complements the gameplay. The minimap really helped. Great idea to have different difficulties. The voice acting was amazing. I could fill the passion / work for the game when playing it.
Audio of this game is incredible. This was an overall great game. Good job!
The audio and beginning cut scene are great. Nice challenging game play too.
I don't understand why, but I really enjoyed the game so much. Except times being brutally murdered. The rat is adorable) Great work!
Good game, the atmosphere is really unique! Eventhough there are some difficulty issues, good job on producing a high number of assets in a very short time! :)
Good game
Thank you, everyone, for your kind words! I really appreciate it!
I added a Linux build (inspired by @voidsay). Unfortunately, I don't have any Linux computer, so I can't test it. Please let me know if it doesn't work properly.
Your Linux build works great! Unity dose a really good job at making builds for all major platforms.
Hope to see you in many more competitions!
I learned a few things from your entry (especially how to upload a usable source file for unity) will be making you competition soon :wink:
I liked the game though I died too many times. Voice over and music made it more fun to play.
Neat game. Managing the rat is definitely an interesting mechanic. I think the game is mostly fine, although I think the player control and physics could use a little work.
In particular, running and walking feels a little.. janky? Like your character doesn't move very smoothly, there's a lot of stopping and starting. And there are parts of the game where you literally have to walk through enemies--there's no room to maneuver around them. I think the "you have to walk past enemies while getting shot at defenseless" part of the game makes sense, but it doesn't work very well when you can't actually walk past the enemies.
That said, I still enjoyed fighting my way through to the ship. It was an appropriately stressful experience.
I enjoyed the music and the voice acting.
One interesting thing: there was a bug where the rat was both in and not in the backpack.
This was so cool! I didn't get it at first, but once I realized you could press e to give the rat oxygen, with the catch that it could escape, the whole game got super interesting. The story behind it was simple but gave the game a purpose which I liked a lot, and the voices made the game a lot of fun! It could use a bit more polish, but the concept is really interesting, and I enjoyed this a lot! Great work!
