I really liked the atmosphere. I had no idea why I was receiving statue parts or why I was building said statue, but it was neat on a surreal level. That being said, there wasn't much game per se, it was more of an experience. A neat trippy experience. I would have appreciated some more context, or some more dialogue, because the 3 lines of dialogue I found were all pretty great. Anyways, I'm going to go stew in my own syrups now.
I was blown away by this. I absolutely LOVE the ps1 aethetic! It took me a minute to realise I had to pick up the package (I'm dumb), and even longer to complete work out the clues, but I got there. I like having to try and find the right house based on cryptic clues. Amazing job!
Great atmosphere, definitely felt like I was in some cursed alternate dimension. I found it quite interesting how finding each address was like a little puzzle!
Oddsburg sure lives up to it's name. Very strong atmosphere and theme. The little bits of dialog add a lot as well. Very nice!
Interesting game, I really liked the atmosphere. Instructions were interesting, and it added to the experience, especially when I delivered package to the wrong door by misunderstanding instructions. It took some exploration first, but after like 5 minutes I was comfortably navigating the town strafe-running through it.
Really good atmosphere and mood. Also very nice environments and textures, reminded me of retro games. I had trouble finding the address for the second package and quit after 10 minutes. Overall very good game, I had fun!
It took me a while to figure out what I was supposed to do, but I did end up finishing it. Very surreal. Loved the atmosphere!
Really nice mood and atmosphere! Also I love the little animation for each door, perfectly creepy.
Atmosphere was quite good in this one! I would have liked to have a little more reason to explore and/or a couple more deliveries, as the clues were really fun to follow and I was just getting into it when it was over.
Loved the aesthetic! This game is weird in the best way possible!
Liked atmosphere and mood of the game, sounds was great too, hovever would like to see more clues for delivering point
Idk what to do in-game, but atmosphere, graphic and sounds are truly amazing!
I have no idea what to do. Unfortunately, I have no experience in the games direction. I walked around for a while and had the expectation that I would discover something. :thinking: Grafic is top and music, too. :thumbsup:
Totally into this old-school vibe. Thanks for this entry, i liked it a lot!
Managed to complete it, I was so freaked out the whole time. I really like the steel district, more games need to be made in that sort of style.
Some addresses were a bit confusing (to me, there are two four layer buildings xD) and the SFX for the steps was a bit irritating but I loved the atmosphere and you got me playing until the end! ;-) Congrats!
Really cool atmosphere. Very spooky, and the strange dialog (and the... fish? what) add to that feeling. This could probably be expanded into a more horror-oriented game if you so wished. It was fun to try and figure out the clues, though I didn't find them overly difficult. Great work on this!
(I was running diagonally the whole time because it's faster. Should maybe be patched?)
