故事选题很好啊，我也是首次知道这个真实事件！在这场gamejam中很少看到关注女性的作品（我甚至还看到一些很低俗，用女性吸睛的作品...）。心跳声贯穿整个游戏，很有紧张的氛围。游戏通过声音指引玩家这个点很棒！支持女性主角支持全女团队的作品💜
喜欢这种讲故事的氛围！
The game has excellent sound effects and art, and the overall atmosphere is well controlled.
I really love your color palette and UI design, and the music creates a strong atmospheric vibe.The audio-driven interpretation of "Signal" feels fresh and original.It’s rare to find a game that offers a calm, story-driven experience like this nowadays.The worldbuilding and underlying story are thought-provoking as well. However, there is still room for improvement in terms of gameplay. The current experience leans quite close to a pure text-based game.
I like your art style and it matches the theme you have chosen very well
非常有意义的游戏，美术和音效也很适配，让人感觉有点淡淡的惆怅，叙事很不错，总之是很打动人的游戏！
游戏基于实事事件作为出发点进行设计，用昏暗的环境、心跳声、废墟背景、鸟叫声很好的烘托了氛围，煤油灯的倒计时让人感到紧张和压抑，而获得光明后我注意到背景似乎是清晨或者傍晚，那种独特的光色让我感受到安心一些，这就是游戏在美术方面给人塑造的良好体验。我比较喜欢的部分还有用鸟的叫声引导玩家，这可以让玩家的五感更加投入游戏过程中。游戏的文案很有韵味，面对一场人道主义悲剧，文案并非单纯的悲伤，反而是有对和平的向往、美好的亲情、对光明的追求，此中滋味更令人伤感。游戏性方面，制作组设计了不同小鸟的功能，我在前几次游玩时没有注意（我收集到鸟的时候数字123并没有变化，我没有注意到鸟已经在背包里），不过好在这没有很影响游玩，目前我只玩到了一种结局文案，不确定是否有更多，而且我注意到选项似乎是有对错之分，但是我还没有明白其中选择的逻辑。总之这是一款选题很独特，情绪体验在多方面做的很好的游戏，如果能够加强小鸟的功能的体现而玩家选项的逻辑及选项的影响的话反馈感可能更好！谢谢你们做了这个游戏。The game is designed based on real-world events. The atmosphere is perfectly set by the dim environment, heartbeat sounds, ruined backgrounds, and bird calls. The countdown of the kerosene lamp creates a sense of tension and oppression, while the unique lighting colors of what seems to be dawn or dusk after gaining light make me feel a sense of relief. This is a great aesthetic experience crafted by the game. I also really like how bird calls are used to guide the player, which helps immerse the player's senses more deeply into the game. The writing is very poetic. Facing a humanitarian tragedy, the text isn't just purely sad; instead, it expresses a longing for peace, beautiful family bonds, and a pursuit of light. This complexity makes it even more heartbreaking. In terms of gameplay, the team designed different functions for the birds. I didn't notice this during my first few playthroughs (the numbers 123 didn't change when I collected a bird, and I didn't realize the bird was already in my backpack), but fortunately, this didn't affect the experience too much. Currently, I've only unlocked one ending and I'm not sure if there are more. I also noticed that choices seem to have right or wrong outcomes, but I haven't figured out the logic behind them yet. All in all, this is a game with a unique theme and excellent emotional delivery across multiple aspects. If the feedback regarding the bird functions could be strengthened, and if the logic and consequences of player choices were clearer, the sense of feedback might be even better! Thank you for making this game.
This game features a highly distinctive art style. Its sound effects, BGM and environmental art blend seamlessly to create an immersive atmosphere. The storyline is engaging, and adding more varied gameplay would greatly enhance the overall experience.
Nice theme and fantastic audio！Love your game.
游戏的美术跟音效营造的氛围感非常到位，主角的呼吸声和心跳声调动了玩家的紧张神经，文案也是故事感满满。如果再增加一些玩法的趣味性可能会更好，加油！ The game's art and sound effects create an extremely immersive atmosphere. The protagonist's breathing and heartbeat sounds effectively trigger the players' nervousness. The script is also full of a sense of story. If more fun elements could be added to the gameplay, it would be even better. Keep up the good work!
I really love how the creators think through the perspective of feminism! It is both creative and meaningful
I liked the art that was there, but it's a shame that the character and birds are floating. The atmosphere and idea were solid too. I did find the signals too subtle for me to tell the birds the right story. Is it the sound they make?
@oxnh Yes, all these sounds are made by us based on the characteristics of the birds, judged by their personality traits and emotions. Perhaps it would be clearer to determine the correct story based on the current situation and the name of the bird.
能看出创作者们对角色和故事塑造的潜力！我很喜欢整体的风格以及很有人文关怀的内核，寂静与荒凉的氛围看似平静但让人深思。希望可以有更明显一点的提示，帮助我更好地了解鸟儿们的性格以及背后的故事。为作品所声援的惨剧默哀，希望在未来可以看到这个游戏被更多人所了解。
很好看的美术风格，我很喜欢这种用声音配合画面的形式
The game has a very distinctive style and is a great one
好爱游戏的音效和氛围塑造！题材选择上真的超级好!进入游戏就能听到心跳声，环境声，走路声也让整个场景让人感到不安，美术风格也很搭，音效和视觉共同打造了超绝的基调！慢慢阅读文字将会感觉到文案老师深厚的功底，很是吸引人。
游戏的完整性稍有缺失，比如设置里的一些按钮点击后没反应，人物暂时还没有行走的动画，以及鸟儿刷新的位置比较固定，都让人感到有些可惜，可恶的72小时怎么这么短！
但是总体上说老师们的游戏依旧十分强劲，出彩的感官体验和有深度的文字都让人眼前一亮！这样的游戏请务必再多做一些！
Absolutely love the game’s sound design and atmospheric world-building! The choice of theme is fantastic. From the moment you enter, the heartbeat, ambient sounds, and footsteps create a deep sense of unease. The art style complements this perfectly—audio and visuals work together to establish a striking and cohesive tone. As you read through the text, the strength of the writing really stands out; it’s engaging and thoughtfully crafted.
There are a few minor issues with overall completeness—for example, some buttons in the settings menu don’t respond, the character currently lacks walking animations, and the bird spawn locations feel somewhat fixed. These are a bit of a pity… curse those short 72 hours!
That said, the game is still incredibly impressive. Its outstanding sensory experience combined with reflective, thought-provoking writing makes it truly memorable. Please make more games like this!
A very innovative game. The design of using bird calls as guidance is really interesting, and the music is so immersive!
Interesting play on the theme, art is pretty cute!
音效和美术营造的氛围挺不错的，尤其是通过音效去辨别移动的方位，时间的设置也增加了紧迫感。可惜玩法上感觉稍稍有一点单一？除了文字选择感觉可以做更多形式的交互，期待它能变成更加丰富的作品。另外，如果可以直接上传到网站的话应该会比需要下载安装包的方式能让更多人体验到游戏。总之，独特的主题，有意思的尝试❤️❤️
Great theme with super cool birds. Maybe checking the spelling and keeping the Chinese and English punctuation more consistent would make it easier to read! Still a good try overall!
I really like the melancholy, dim vibe. The music and sound are made with a lot of care and really pull me in and matches perfectly with the art style. Very innovative game. Keep it up!
很喜欢游戏剧情和玩法的设计，随着剧情发展带来的音效变化也很好玩。很期待能有更复杂的地图设计！！
我喜欢手绘风格的UI界面和角色设计！ 不用担心作品不完美！第一次参赛多少都会感觉到紧张的，我最早还有几次因为时间安排问题弃赛了…… 你们已经做的很棒了！
这边提几个建议（或是说反馈bug？） 我这边window版本下载游戏后，发现setting按钮点不开，所以不知道如何切换语言 但是我又发现123背包那边进入后，默认的UI文本是“空”（中文） 我不清楚是不是只有我这样
总之！你们做的很棒！期待你们团队的下一个作品！
I love the hand-drawn style UI and character design! Don't worry about your work not being perfect! Everyone feels nervous in their first jam — I even dropped out a few times early on due to scheduling issues... You all did a great job!
Here are a few suggestions (or maybe bug reports?): After downloading the Windows version, I found that the Settings button doesn't open, so I couldn't figure out how to switch languages. But then I noticed that when I open the 1-2-3 inventory, the default UI text shows "空" (Chinese for "empty"). I'm not sure if it's just me experiencing this.
Anyway! Great work! Looking forward to your team's next project!
@shivvvy Thank you for the teacher's suggestion! We will build on this foundation and create even more elaborate works.
@yancheng Ahhh, the teacher is really meticulous! The heartbeat sound is indeed our little design to create an uneasy and tense atmosphere. The music at the beginning was also intended to make everyone think about what the war has destroyed and what it has brought. We hope everyone can enjoy the game in a quiet manner! We will also think more about what improvements can be made to enhance the integrity of the game. Thank you for your evaluation, teacher!
@yuriscat Thank you for your encouragement! Although there are still many areas for improvement, it is already very satisfying to have made a complete and playable game for the first time! Also, thank you for your suggestions. We will make better improvements to make the game more complete and interesting.
很有氛围的沉浸式体验！能感觉到独特沉静的气质。72小时能做一个文本叙事驱动的游戏真的好强🥺
Very cool art, and very good overall mood and feel of the game. Great job.
Very creative game! The narrative style, mechanics, audio, and art are all well done.
However, some key presses didn't seem to respond. There is also a bug worth fixing: when I open the inventory, time pauses, but I can still move around. If I bump into the bird while doing this, I can see the dialogue prompt pop up, and then I can just close the inventory to talk to it.
Honestly, though, this unintended exploit took a lot of the gameplay pressure off and allowed me to focus more on enjoying the story!
A very nice entry! The graphics and the audio were a great fit for the game. Thank you to @deng for the exploit you mentioned as I managed to finish the game and experience the full story :D
Very cool idea to use birds as a navigational signal! Art is very cool, atmosphere is peak! Great project!
@deng Thank you for your bug suggestion. I think your feedback is also very cute. Haha! We will optimize based on the suggestions you provided in the future. Also, thank you for liking our mechanism, music and art!
@balimaarthebassfish Thank you for thoroughly experiencing the entire process of the game! I'm sure you must have understood some of the small designs of our game! The music of the game actually sets the background for the game. If you listen carefully, you can hear some gunshots at the end. Later, when you enter the game and see the character art we designed, you should suddenly understand! In summary, thank you for your dedicated play!
@teaminister Thank you for your evaluation and feedback! We used the sounds of birds as the guiding signal. It's really impressive that you understood this level.
Gorgeous art, soundtrack and atmosphere.
@oller125 Thank you so much for your high praise! I really enjoyed playing your game! The settings are also very interesting. Haha!
Awesome art and sound design :)
A very complete narrative. I love the directional sound (left/right) that points me the right way, and how it links to the bird I'm carrying. Great job!
I love this! You all created an amazing atmosphere and a really moving story.
@unreststudio Thank you for your recognition! This is a very effective feedback as a music professional, hehe @roccay Thank you for your feedback! This is indeed a small design we put a lot of effort into. Thank you for noticing it. @chaseplays Thank you for your feedback! I also really like our story and the setting.
real talk this one got me emotional didnt expect that from a jam game the sound design carries hard just wish the bird mechanic was more clear at first
It's true that Asian games have a unique feel to them. The atmosphere is incredible! I really loved that each bird has its own approach, and despite the simple gameplay, it still tells a full story and creates its own little world filled with creatures. Great work and smart deeper meanings! 10/10
@alexandr-gerya I'm very glad that you like the sound design part of the game. When designing the sound effects, I did put in some effort and used synthesizers to try to create a middle state between birds and humans, more like the disembodied voices of those who were displaced and wandering in ruins. Thank you for understanding the depth of our game.
@golda Thank you for your liking! When we were designing the game, we did indeed consider how to make it more unique and creative. Everyone put a lot of effort into this aspect!
You all created an amazing atmosphere and story.
Interesting artstyle that makes for a great atmosphere! Sound design is also very good! Story is interesting and dialogs very poetic. I found the time limit quite strict, but once you figure the game out, it was alright, especially since the game area is not too big.
Game displayed fine on 1440p monitor, with only some minor visual issues. I had one annoying bug where clicking on the dialog choices didn't do anything, making me stuck. Otherwise very nice entry and I'm glad that students were involved; I wish I had this option when I was studying myself, because nothing teaches you better about working under pressure and time management than game jam. Awesome!
@ao-85 Thank you!! @dzejpi Thank you for your evaluation! We will also pay attention to this issue of time limit and may relax it a little bit. Perhaps this way, it can better enrich the gaming experience for players. Regarding the bug you mentioned, we will also optimize it. Thank you for your thoughtful feedback.
OMG! I love this graphic, incredible work😍 Atmosphere of the game is also great same for sound!
Love the somber, immersive atmosphere created by the game's art and sound design — from the heartbeat and ambient noises to the unique oil lamp countdown, every detail pulls you into the emotional world. The narrative writing is especially touching: facing a heavy theme, it never becomes melodramatic but moves you with its longing for peace, family bonds, and light. The idea of using bird calls as guidance feels fresh and original. While the gameplay is still somewhat linear and there are minor interaction bugs. Some settings buttons don't respond, it's impressive how complete and thoughtful the game feels given the 72‑hour development limit. For a first-time game jam, this level of polish is really good. I look forward to future updates that enhance the distinct functions of different birds and deepen the impact of player choices. Great job, and keep it up!
@anaastaska What an excellent evaluation! thank you @13pilgrims I'm very touched that you have such a thorough understanding of our game. And thank you for noticing our narrative design. We will also pay attention to situations where certain buttons do not respond to interactions. Thank you for your suggestion!
Simplicity meets beauty 😄 Really enjoyed the twists with the birds, they kept me on my toes the whole time.
There was also a lot of symbolism woven throughout the game that I probably still haven’t fully deciphered. The timer ended up being way more exciting than I expected too, especially tied together with the fading lantern light. It reminded me of mechanics like maintaining a campfire or feeding fuel into a signal to keep it alive.
Cute and adorable characters as well. Feels like a lot of care and work went into the whole presentation.
Very nice art! Once I understood what I was doing I had to play till I made it to the end. The story was captivating
I really loved the aesthetic and atmosphere of this game. It left me wanting more, which I think is always a very good sign. With a bit more time and development, I honestly feel like this could turn into something really special and interesting.
Really great work! :izakaya_lantern:
I really enjoyed the art style and sound design in this game. While it was a bit short, it IS just a game jam, after all. Would love to see where the story could go in the future!
@lloydlobo Yes! This is the very mechanism you mentioned, and it is also the ingenious design we have come up with. The little girl protagonist is a symbolic representative of us who want to voice our opinions on current affairs. Additionally, the various types of birds we designed also represent different meanings. If you have time, you can play the game again and listen to the sound design inside. Maybe you will discover more! We call for peace. We will do our best to make more people aware that innocent lives are still disappearing in this world... This is truly a tragedy.
@bonedaddy Thank you! This is a very high compliment.😭
@hagamosvideojuegos This is truly a very thoughtful evaluation! Thank you for taking the time to think about the deeper meaning implied in our game! We will also make improvements and optimizations in the future.
@rubixnoob13 Thank you for your affirmation! After this experience, I believe I will be able to do even better in the next attempt, with higher completeness and playability. I also really like your games.
