I kept running into issues, one where the ladders on each far side would sometimes get me stuck in walls when I try to get off before getting all the way up, and another where if a specific task in what I assume to be the kitchen comes up I suddenly lose the ability to do *any* task. \nOtherwise, the art style and the audio are amazing and really get that \"sinking feeling\".","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":637509,"author_name":"John llyod Apolo","author_uid":"john-llyod-apolo","epoch":1619497259,"text":"I like the idea and the art but it's confusing if I have done the task or not espesially the bottom right task.

I figured it was kind of like doing tasks as a crewmate in Among Us, but it was hard to tell if you've done the tasks successfully. I got the green switches and one red one as my first task and I was woefully confused with it. I thought that the camera was a little restrictive, I would've liked to see a little bit more beneath the player, especially since you have a lot of verticality in the game. I also found myself stuck from the ladders pretty often -- in future jams it might make more sense to just make teleporters if ladders are giving you a hard time.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":692698,"author_name":"MikoziQ","author_uid":"mikoziq","epoch":1620153325,"text":"After reaching bottom and hitting button\n\nPros: \n\n- Cute, hand-drawn graphics!\n- Fish in a tank is a humorous touch\n- Funky animation of main character\n- Good soundscape for mood building\n\nCons:\n\n- I'm not exactly sure what the goal is\n- Only 3 screens were ok to activate\n- VERY JANKY ladder controls: sometimes you climb, sometimes you drop, you slide on it like on ice. \n- Because of ladders, I got stuck in a metal wall (screenshot attached)\n- Some arrows indicating 'event' were broken in place\n- Kitchen, first aid, bombs and electric plant events - I had no clue whether I should go check the are or click some buttons.
