I might just be easily impressed but the graphics are great. It reminds me sort of the Stanley Parable with the sparse office setting. It is very mysterious but I'm not sure what exactly I'm supposed to do? The game doesn't really come with an instructions and it appears there's only two rooms unless I'm really missing something.

The game looks very interesting. I love the music in the menu screen! Sadly, I do not really seem to get what to do... Maybe you should give a hint on where to start?

I didn't understand prime concept. Strange world ++

"I'm tired of not getting credit for the things I do here"... totally. Agreed, love the music on the menu. Awesome blender skills though. I still never found a way to win... there were some funny messages on the computers though.

Not sure what I was doing with the computer but I liked the atmosphere set.

I related to this game, and that makes me sad.

Nice touch with the messages. Gameplay is lacking some kind of depth and the messages that should just have been something extra is the entire gameplay instead.

I wasn't sure if there was any goal in the game. This isn't really my thing.

I loaded it up, clicked a computer, a blank screen came up that I couldn't click out of and no more inputs were accepted as far as I could work out. Did I miss something?

I really would have liked to have the music in the menu inside the game. Maybe even coming from a single computer and nothing more. The red thing, could have been buzzing too. Some more stuff like that to set the mood stronger.

Then I might have enjoyed more running around investigating the computers. However, there too, I would really have like to have some easier way to get away from them. Like clicking left mouse button again. Moving the hand from the WASD to click Esc on each of them made me stop after 5.

I think you definitely have the blender-skills to do an interesting moody and slick-looking game. But the interactions, sound-scaping and game-logic need some love as well.

Not entirely sure what was meant to happen but an interesting concept

You didn't provide a version for Linux OS, so no test from me.

@Rick Hoppmann Thats why I have a web version up, i was really hesitating between posting a linux version as well, but i wanted to have the spoilers as a separate link, and was only given 5 spaces... anyways, i genuinely prefer playing web player games for rating, its so much easier...

FYI I am also a linux user if that makes you happy in anyway, shape or form, but I know, and you do too which OS is the most common, and which is the least...

sorry.

I won, but how I did that I don't know, I was just taking a stroll next to a table after having read almost all screens. But the confusing world is definitely a plus.
