Island loop by Varbin

made by Varbin for Ludum Dare 47 (JAM)

About the game

Gloomy 2D adventure game.

As a result of the shipwreck, the boy ends up on a mysterious island, and finds himself stuck in a time loop.

To get off the island, he needs to solve riddles and fix the time.

Just like our hero, other people also got to the island, but they could not do anything and turned into monsters.

Gameplay

We find a broken watch dial. To fix it, we need to find the parts and connect them in the chapel into a single mechanism.

Each time we add a piece to the mechanism, the time until the level is reloaded increases. What gives us the quest further.

When we have collected the entire dial, time will stop resetting and we can get out.

The graphics are beautiful but I am confused about the goal. I tried a couple times and I kept falling off the island. Maybe some more direction would help.

The game is so pretty, but I got stuck :(. I found a battery and a can but after that I couldn't find anything else.

@some45bucks hello) thank you for the feedback ^^
we managed to do only 1 quest. after collecting the battery and the lens, you need to turn on the projector on the top floor. and find out the code for the safe.

Woah, the game is very nice looking! I was definitely a bit lost my first times playing it, and I fell off the world by going too far to the right one time. Really cool puzzles, and really amazing mood you've set! (I don't know why you opted out of mood, I would rate this 5 stars!) Great work all around!

Very nice moody artwork! I figured out how to open the safe, but did not know what to do after that?

Very nice graphics and moody :) I didn't found what to do after open the chest, and you should add game space boundaries ^^

Good visuals and mood and you seems to have inventory and interactions all sorted so congrats. Would love to see where you would take this narratively. Is the plan to finish this post-jam? Also english language option would be really appreciated though I understand if that isn't a priority.

A bit of advice: if you have some content that you're planning to add, but that's not yet in the game - don't add it in Screenshots at itch io.
