I\u2019d make it smaller but more detailed \u2014 maybe add some locked doors, key searching, or even a few enemies to get in the way.\n\nAlso, in version 1.1 of the build, the cursor and the screen center are shifted slightly to the right.

I personally think its a bit too ambitious. Walking in sand with nothing around isn't necessarily super engaging, you should have moved everything a bit closer together with less height difference and clear paths.\n\nI was also taken by surprise that the doors in the gas station don't have any collision. If you don't have time to make doors work, it is obviously completely fine in a game jam to ignore them, but from a player's perspective its probably better to not have any doors at all, than have doors you can just walk through, ignoring the mesh. Its just a bit jarring.\n\nI used the first version build and also have to say the audio is rough. Very loud and I think the generator sound never goes out of the players range, meaning you can hear it all across the map.\n\nI know I am sounding very negative, but believe me when I say you have something on your hands here that could turn into a nice full game, I just think the scope was too large for a single dev over 3 days and what I am missing is an engaging gameplay loop or a core mechanic.
