Really like the design of the character. The controls were a bit weird, but it didn't impact the experience too much.
Great mechanic! Finding the true form of nessy was really funny. Also I might borrow the way you made the tentacle for our game.
I like the interactive intro sequence. The controls were fluid and the game ran at constant 60 fps. As mentioned by the other commenters, windowed mode is a must have for any ld game. I would have liked a tutorial or an explanation of why the zombie dwarves were after me. Also the 100.098593% capture made me feel very good about myself ;)
This game was hella neat! Loved it!
I didn't expect the supernatural element to appear even if it was a setting in which one could read others' emotions with their smartphone, that was quite the pleasant twist. The beneath the surface theme has been implemented well.
Even though some might not like the extra humorous elements, I think it was ok, as I personally think detective games need a bit of tension-relieving humor.
The random police officer in another style got quite a laugh out of me as I didn't expect it.
It's also interesting how Jacek and Kayode seem to have been together. There aren't a lot of games with LGBT characters, but the representation you give them in this game is lovely.
Great Job!
Cool concept. Like the music.
HOP, HAP, HAAP!! Very charming.
Thank you :D
That boss fight was intense. The lasers made it so much better. Keep up the good work.
Like the concept. The controls were a bit on the floaty side. The game has a nice color pallet.
Woooh I did it! Very addicting and hard (in a good way). Really like it. My poor spacebar though.
Nice to include a tutorial. Most game skip that important step (including our game :) ).
Great sound design. The puzzles were hard at first, but after I read you can use the pump it became much more manageable. Also it's very logical that you must take the chalice to the surface to win, that really made it more rewarding.
Some context about the world would have been nice. But the music and art make up for it. Really funny!
Very true to the original. Wasn't expecting that twist ending.
I lost it when I became a unicorn. This is the first game that made me laugh out loud for 2 minutes :) The sound is also amazing.
Screenshots look interesting, sadly I got the same error as DustyStylus.
