Love the vibes and how there's multiple outcomes! I found a couple but I'm curious how many there are total.

I found the signal! It's a very atmospheric game. I liked looking for all the options for getting badges!

Gorgeous! That toast deserved it!

I ended up playing through the entire thing because I was curious how many little paths there were. I’m really impressed with how well put together the whole game is. It gives me great escape room vibes. The graphical effects were well done and made everything feel visually cohesive. The initial gun loading animation stood out, and I liked the visual language around the achievement hunting.

I might be missing something, but I’m not really sure what the signal is or how it connects to what’s happening in the game, even after finishing it. :)

Great game! I really enjoyed going through all endings. I only found the last one by looking again at the screenshot on the top of the page haha. The ambiance and set up are very immersive

@beastpanda our idea was that you have psychosis, and are interpreting various things as "signals" to shoot. I think we could have done a better job at selling that, but we also wanted the experience to speak for itself - as telling you what's going on somewhat defeats the attempt at simulating psychosis.

Thanks for playing, I'm glad you had fun!

I got all the endings. Would have benn great if the puzzle pieces would be used for multiple endings.

Great use of UE5! Massive respect for taking the time to strip out unnecessary plugins and optimize the build size — it really makes a difference. Hunting for the different targets was genuinely engaging. Solid work!

Atmospheric as heck and looks nicely polished for a weekend jam game! But I have absolutely no idea what I'm supposed to be trying to do here. I guess that's wasting time?

The game felt immersive and very polished. I really liked how the scene was set up, great job with props, interactions and audio. I found all the signals and got the true ending.

The idea with putting subtle hints on the game page is genius. 🙂

Great game! Everything feels nice and fully finished. The graphics and audio tie everything into an atmospheric, mysterious experience. Very solid entry.

This was very well made. Well done.
