Well I was going to play your game, but I guess it's not working now :slight_frown:
Looking forward to test your game! It really looks nice!
The screenshots look thrilling, I might try again tomorrow! :)
Would you tag me when this goes live? I would love to play it! Looking forward to it!
Curious about this game, no links tho :P
Can't wait until the game is out.
@png @xacer @conneli @devparty @hardcoded @pseudonclide hey guys, thank you for your patience. The game is now playable. Have fun with it. Feedback is highly appreciated.
Really glad I got to try this. Conceptually, I loved it. The ghost, the spooky house, the air of mystery and exploration, all well done. I had some trouble with the buttons however. I clicked first person and was definitely not in first person for my playthrough, and the Press E for Up button was stuck on the GUI after an elevator ride. But I don't think I can praise the aesthetics enough, well done.
@conneli , thanks for the feedback. Yeah, the first person is beta, if at all. You should play this definitely in third person view. Sometimes the GUI gets stuck. The walkaround is to move forward and go back to the action object again to trigger the trigger again. Did you manage to finish the game?
Spooky time! Like Halloween vibe! Graphic and color super! Like tips in game
I loved the graphics! I wished the ghost's movement was faster.
I think I broke it. Went up the stairs, then I think I fell down somewhere. Super cool concept though, love the mystery exploration vibe! Had fun floating around the mansion, figuring out the puzzles.

Sometimes I get options on the screen that I don't think should be there, like the option for "up" while I'm walking around.

Other than these minor nit-picks, amazing what you did given the short amount of time you had!
Graphics were amazing, really spooky Halloween mood. Some sound and music would have improved immersion. Managed to collect one vase before I stepped beyond a wall and fell into the void.
You managed to recreate the feelings I had playing one of my favorite games growing up (Adventure for Atari), minus the dragons. I really found the game fun and challenging at times. The way I felt like I was constantly rotating around the house, like it was one large cylinder shape was really clever way to make it feel like a loop.
I did get stuck a few times, i accidently sent the elevator to the 3rd floor when i was in the basement, and had to reload the game to get out of it, but other than that bug I had a fun time playing this. Love the ghost flowing in the breeze effect on the player.
Nice entry here :)
Cute graphics and incredible folding effect, where do you find the time to do all of this :p Just had a bug, falling down in infinity when going upstairs ^^
Really love the concept.
Thanks for playing and reviewing. We are aware of the staircase bug, where you fall out of the world. Currently we don' t know why this bug exists, because there are colliders present there.
Really great game. The ghost looks cool and the lighting and font set a spooky mood. The mood is good but sorely needs sound to be amazing. Puzzles were fun and physics a bit janky which could be reduced by disabling collision on picked up items. I especially liked the laser puzzle. One last thing, I wish you could go through the door at the end even if it just fades to black. Very nice game! Congrats.
I liked mood and atmosphere. Not really hard but really spooky! Cool, good luck to you!)
I liked the game! At first I was lost because I thought both elevators went to the exact same floors, but once I discovered that I was wrong I succeeded til the end ;-) I missed some music or at least SFX but it's not that big of a deal having an entertaining game ;-)
Interesting take on the loop theme. Although the character moved a bit wonky around some parts where I felt to get stuck a little and some lighting came from unexpected spots, the setting and atmosphere worked well. Very satisfying to get all the pieces together in the end after a thorough investigation of the mansion. Apart of duplicate E actions, the UI could have used a little bit clearer distinction between available and disabled options.
M7C1N01GWP.png **This game is really unique !** The fact that the player is turning around makes a super cool perspective all along. I really enjoyed to play your game mate. And the fact that is a circular space, I don't know exactly why but it's super easy to navigate and to remember where are the objects you noticed. . +1 for HTML5 (WebGL) it makes so easy to access. Well done ! Also I really appreciate that you put little clues everywhere in case the player is stuck. The difficulty curve is kind of perfect for a game done in 72h is impressive GG ! I mean the game is quiet polished already ! At least the player experience I don't know about the code ahah. I liked the warm mood and visuals as well, it was adding to the enclosed filling of the place. . I could totally see a game with this concept but extended. The character (soul) is in the center I really like the clothes simulation. It would be cool to have a more touching protagonist a bit like the one in "Little Nightmares". If you have a minute don't hesitate to check out our game :-) . Thanks for the experience, it was one of the more innovative game so far :-)
I forgot to mention all the mechanics there is : - Pick-Place - Movement in elevator - Filling - Interaction between two objects - Laser reflection on mirrors - Triggers - Doors - Stairs
...I mean 72h hey Well done !
Halloween vibe! Cool, good luck to you!)
Really well done, I gotta say. Nice work, seriously impressive for 72 hours.
Impressive game, I really liked the idea of being in a circular mansion, it's unusual and makes it unique. It has some nice puzzles, lots of details, simple gampeplay, and cool graphics. Only miss sone music or sound effect to be perfect. Very well done, super fun to play!
Wow, what an incredible job. I really liked the graphics, and the setting of the scene. The puzzles to find the vases are very well designed, especially the mirror puzzle. The concept of taking an item and taking it to a specific one is quite interesting. In general it was a very good experience. Your game is different and creative. I had some problems with bugs. The elevators sometimes did not seem to work (I was even stuck on the initial floor and on the floor above it, as the elevator did not descend below the initial floor), and one of the mirrors entered the wall and I was unable to get it out (although I still managed to solve the puzzle). Anyway, bugs in a game jam are normal, and your work here is magnificent. Congratulations.
This is very nice, I love the haunted house look, I wish it had some spooky sounds though
This looks fantastic! 🤩 Really has that vibe of old-school prerendered point and click games, and the camera stuck in the middle and rotating is a really clever, good fit. Cloth-sim ghost is just the icing on the cake. Physics/movement could use some work but it does the trick, and solving the level was fun. Did not expect the light beam mirror puzzle at the end! Nice work!! 👻
