Confined Space by Osel13

[raw]
made by Osel13 for Ludum Dare 54 (JAM)

An epic tale about saving a timeline through crammed "limited spaces"

This game was brought to you by:

Zuzana "Lemra" Horáková - Visual Art;

Filip "Nemo" Majerech - Sound design & voice acting;

Alžběta "Betty" Poskočilová - Story;

Jan "Osel" Hermoch - Code;

This game was an unfortunately failed attempt to participate in Ludum Dare 54 event (theme: Limited Space). We failed because Code was finished about three hours after deadline.

Hope you enjoy our game

Best Regards.

I love the attempt at using voice acting! More games should try their hand at it! As for bugs perhaps you're all aware:
-After entering the time machine no text is visible for that specific line, afterwards it works perfectly.
-The window for the program does not properly fullscreen or is adjustable in any way.
As for the narrative some things aren't fully explained near the beginning such as why are the characters here in this moment or what is their motivation for being here so it just feels like people dropped into a situation without any backstory. Also the art does not give enough visual representation of the situation that the characters are in or maybe I'm just misinterpreting it.
That said this is a great first attempt, keep going!

Given the limited time of the jam, it is really innovative that you decided to add voice acting to this tale. The story has real depth and even even though there are some really minor bugs it is very well executed. (I would like to add that the "style" of the narrator reminded me of Disco Elysium, a fact that made me smile a lot through the whole experience) Very beautiful result! Good job!

Nice story and illustrations! The narrator did a good job too. I think this game would have been even better if there was some background music. Apart from the sometimes hard to read text due to the color of the background, I don't have anything else to say. Great job!

A pity you couldn't get it finished in time for the jam. Good work with the voice acting, don't often see that in a game jam. Well done!
