made by lagoe for Ludum Dare 47 (JAM)

[UPDATE]

Sorry guys for the delay, now the link is up!! This is my 3rd jam here, and unfortunately this time I did not have much time to spend on this (but I wanted to partecipate anyway :smile: ), so I had to take like 2 extra days to fix the game and make it at least playable.

[GAME]

So, about the game, basically is a creepy escape room where you need to find the key to go to the next room. There are some puzzle (sort of) that we put together to make a little challenge for each room. Unfortunately we didn't make all the puzzles that we decided on paper, but we will add these in the future for sure.

[CONTROLS]

WASD or arrow = MOVE

Cursor = Camera

Left-click = Interaction

[FINAL NOTE]

Our objective for this Jam was not only to make a game that follows the theme, but we wanted to try to recreate a PSX style feeling when playing this game. Let me know what you guys think about it :P

The link worked fine for me, maybe you have corrected it... The style is nice and I like the implementation of the theme. The mouse sensitivity, however, is way to high and makes it very difficult to point your camera in the direction you want. I also think that you should at least mention the controls in the beginning: they are intuitive enough but the players shouldn't be guessing what they are supposed to do and start pressing random keys... I would really like to see what the game looks like when you're done with it!

Edit: I played and posted this as you were updating your game and game description, so it's not super relevant anymore... ;-)

Nice atmosphere and artwork. The light beam was perhaps a little too narrow, a bit wider would maybe have been less awkward without losing any atmosphere. Good job!

The mouse sensitivity was kind of fast but I got used to it, but the game is way too dark.

Very good graphics and atmosphere of horror in the game. I liked the retro artistic style. It really resembles Playstation 1 games, and brings a good nostalgic feeling. I liked the puzzles, although I believe I shouldn't have been able to finish them all. Maybe the game could be a little clearer, or the character a little faster, but other than that I think the experience was very interesting. Congratulations.
