Finally a @bordonne game that does not have me pushing things!! Nice twisting of the puzzlescript mechanics there.
I also really appreciate how those creations always come with an animated gif of the gameplay!
Amazing storytelling, grasping characters (Harod!!) and fantastic execution, given the wonderful theme. Well done!
Great game, had fun! Seemed to be getting along fine by spamming summons without even moving, until the game froze on me on level 5 hehe. But I was indeed not using Chrome as recommended.
Hey there! Tried to DL your game but it goes Not Found... :( Let me know if you update it!
:star::star::star::star::star: **Marvelous gaming apparatus**
This handy playing device perfectly serves its fun-having purpose, with its sturdy mechanics and sophisticated design
-----------------
Omg this game definitely made my top 3 games reviewed so far, along with [Harod](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/55/harod-the-eternal-summoning) and [Dance Dance Summoner](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/55/dance-dance-summoner).
I was already totally sold on the concept, and then you dropped me in the freaking backrooms??? Five stars, five stars everywhere!
@creeper-nade I have the same issue!
The issue is that on an ultra-wide resolution, the viewport is stretched to fit the width of the screen, but in order to keep the width/height ratio, the top and bottom of the screen are cropped out, so we cannot see/focus on the Ask bar... I tried running it in window mode using Alt-Enter, but the window is not resizeable :(
Other than that, it's beautiful and one can definitely see that it is a work of love <3
@creeper-nade That did it, thank you! The main menu is still cropped out, but in-game UI is perfect :)
Gee, thanks @koolruz ! I thought I had removed it, but somehow I must have not saved after.
Thank you @skyler-newsome, looove what you did with Harod!!
Sadly my planning for this jam was really messed up so I ended up cutting maaaany corners (I think it shows mostly in the sound design that is... sparse, to say the least ^_^), like I litteraly rushed in the entire clue system during the last hour of the jam... I really wish I had time to add music too :(
Many lessons to be learned from my first ever jam, that's for sure.
@mrgaberson haha yeah I know I noticed! Not really a bug but a feature (in the sense that I was aware of it but too busy finishing a million other things ^^')
Another fun experiment is summoning the good demon then immediately summoning the evil one as well and survive long enough to see who wins that battle! It's doable.
Wow, that was indeed very atmospheric, well done! I was kept on the edge of my seat at all times. My only issue was with the camera lowering down by itself when moving forward, and maybe a little lack of audio feedback on the locked doors? Because of that, I wasn't sure I was pressing the right button to open them at first.
