Absolutely flawless. The visuals and audio are both incredibly stylish and such a joy to experience. With a little more content, this could easily be released on Steam. Anyone who loves TOEM will absolutely love this!

THE ENDING, ARRRGHHHHHHH!!! It was honestly an amazing play, their little interactions where really cute and fun, how I wish the music dude would hear how a trumpet sounds :)))
Amazing. My favorite so far. I giggled out loud at that ending. I especially love all the scientists and their bickering. If you make a full game out of this I would absolutely buy it.
Awesome game! I wasn't too great at the puzzles so I couldn't finish it but the vibes are great! Looks really polished.
feels like a hidden gem, absolutely..
top humor, an ending I couldn't have guessed lol, blasting graphics,
cant even suggest something to add :v
Very pleasing, both visually and in terms of gameplay. Nothing much to add—everything’s great!
Oh, that's awesome! The graphics and sound are both great. Everything feels so cohesive and well put together.
*Inflation has even reached "42"... 😂
Very fun! I love the visual style, excellent job.
Well done, very polished entry
I love the storytelling, as if I were in the future and looked back to this time. Puzzles are simple and neat, but solving every puzzle will reward me with new cool stuff, so I have motivation to solve these puzzles!
This is just next level of what polish means. Amazing, great, fun, interesting, clever i can do this all day. Thanks for that submission! Congratz!
super job! loved playing this, felt cozy and polished. Art is fantastic :)
Great job, your game is amazing! I loved playing it, super cool
A fun game. I never stopped to think that one day, the things we use now and consider cutting-edge technology would seem old and unfamiliar in the future. The ending is wonderful.
wow guys you nailed it technically.. and ofc great sense of humor. thank you, had a good laugh!
Nicely done, funny and polished! Graphics are especially good. The Rush Hour-style minigame is simple, but it works.
Just a quick heads up, I have encountered a rendering issue with the background of the main room on Firefox (still managed to beat the game, though reaching that last digging spot downstairs was, let's say, a bonus puzzle).

Things work fine on Chromium though. Maybe something wrong on my specific setup since nobody else seems to complain.
Very polished, with a nice mood and the interactions between the scientists were funny!
What a surprise! What a game! So relaxing. And what a satisfying ending! 😉
Awesome audio and graphics!! Very good mood and story ! great puzzles ! gg to the team !
It sounded like someone was saying something after the outro, but apparently not?
I really liked the humor, especially the variety in attitude. Naturally I agree the one musical instrument is a weapon of mass destruction. 🤣
Graphics felt very polished, although the minigame design was a bit too simple for my tastes.
All in all, great job!
What a chill atmosphere you've created with just a couple of building blocks - Everything fits so well together and I really enjoyed the graphics, sound as well as the puzzles. However, the interaction between the characters and the humor really stood out to me. Great entry!
This is my favourite entry for this Ludum Dare event. It’s more than a game—it’s a really interesting take on how we interpret runes and other things archaeologists dig up. Of course, there’s plenty of humour in this entry, but it touches on something I’ve often noticed: some interpretations of artefacts are purely speculative... I solved every puzzle, but I must admit that I didn’t understand the final artefact—something like “61”. Is it a reference to the next LD event? Or is there another explanation? The main mechanics of the puzzles are clever - simple, but efficient. The minimalist aesthetic is gorgeous, and the characters are funny. The guitar music is cool too. I had so much fun playing. Honestly, this is professional-quality work. Judging by your names, I suspect you already work in the French industry—perhaps in communications? Anyway, thank you so much for this captivating entry. It made my evening! *Sérieusement, je suis bluffé par votre projet* ++
@geckoo1337 Thank you for your kind comment! The core team met working together as developers in the French video game industry, but we took separate paths in more or less related fields.
For those who didn't get (or get to) the ending: !> It is a reference to the 67 meme, and the fact that most people did not get it
I really enjoyed this game, but unfortunately it crashed every time when I got to the second level. hope it gets fixed soon (not sure if it’s an issue on my end, tho)
@tomtomgome Merci pour ton explication, qui ne m’éclaire pas davantage sur la signification de ce chiffre. Personnellement, je n’en avais jamais entendu parler. L’expression reste obscure… Mais bon, pourquoi vouloir tout comprendre ou donner un sens à tout ? Merci pour ton retour ++
ok the ending was funny. very good game.
SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIX well you know the drill. Cool game! Nice art and relaxing music. Great mood. I would reduce the "engine" sound you have at the machine, you can hear it almost everywhere and as it's repeating a lot it kinda breaks the mood! But that's a nitpick. Great entry!
