The game seems pretty well built and the art is spot on, but it's definitel lacking on the level design, though. The hint on the 3rd room is simply not a hint... Had to come to the comments to find it just so I could progress on the game and maybe change my mind on it. Do you know that feeling of finally seeing the answer that was always on your face the whole time? That "OOOOH, why didn't I see this before"? It simply didn't happen (and it totally should). And I stared at that -hELLO- for quite a while still.
Next room was the platforming challenge and frustration again, admit that it was partly my fault for sort of trying to rush the game by now. But sending me back to the first room on every fail was very annoying and losing the 5 minutes on top of that felt too penalizing. I had a little less than 15 minutes by now, failed twice, decided to focus and tryhard on my last chance but ended up failing and restarting (had the feeling that passed through the moving platform when shouldn't, maybe a glitch but not sure).
So I restarted because I really loved the idea, the art, the overall gameplay and the escape room nostalgia. Had to go through the Intro text again and it felt too slow on the second time, there should be a way of skipping or making it go faster by holding a button for those noobs (like me) that had to restart the game. But right after the text, began walking right (was already holding D as text kept going) while also tapping E (to make the intro text go faster) and when I walked past the first sign, the text popped up but the character kept on moving right. He locked in the text screen and kept walking, clipped through two doors and got stuck on the box of room 3 (screenshot). Sadly I gave up after that :/
I realize that it's a jam game and it's expected to have some flaws but (to me) the flaws made it unplayable (at least for now).
Anyway, congratulations on finishing the game, on it's concept and art (tried to find out who did what but only found @Gamekrazzy's name. Did you do it all by yourself? If so congratz on that too, wow). These still made me like the game after all and maybe I'll give a try again later. Good job :)aotngZd5R2mGKAe6NOeJug.png
