Laverino by Kirass
Horror puzzle. The player plays as a child. He was put to sleep in a crib, but he cannot fall asleep without his toys. His toys are alive, so when the child finds a toy, it will run away from him. To find the toys, you have to solve a simple puzzle. When the player catches a toy, it stops resisting and sits quietly on the crib. Location - room. Night time, rain and thunderstorm outside. In the room there is a baby monitor with a video camera, if we get into its field of view, we will lose, since the nanny will see that we are not sleeping. We will also lose, If dawn comes and we do not have time to collect the required number of toys to fall asleep, then the nanny comes and we lose. Dawn at 6:00 am.
Controls: W - Forward A - Left S - Back D - Right E - Interaction Q - Drop

I adore the toys, so well modeled.
It for sure has a creepy atmosphere that i didn't like (in a good way).
Nice job! it was so satisfying placing the last toy in the crib. Took me 5 minutes to play through, nice time for a game jam!
Liked how you created a eerie atmosphere with the music! The nanny in the window was scary.
I nearly completed the game but got stuck on the drawer with the keycode, where the last toy was hiding.
Great Job!
But the little puzzles were very nice
Иногда поисходил какой-то QTE, смысл которого я так и не поняла. Что происходит в этот момент? Также не поняла в чем суть робо-няни, если можно по всей комнате ходить прямо перед камерой, и все нормально.
Suna no oshiro :) Прям очень нужно заглушать основную музыку когда играет шкатулка, две разные темы параллельно - это ужасно. Также непонятно зачем давать возможность игроку забирать игрушки обратно из кроватки. Я сделала это случайно...
Про хорошее, чтобы не было все сплошной критикой, классное настроение, лаконичный джемовский формат, и при этом игра ощущается законченной, милые игрушки)
Some critiques I have: I think it would've been slightly more intuitive controls if click would toggle pick up and set down. And the look-around is a little too sensitive.
I wasn't able to find the 5th teddy bear (probably my own failure lol) but still enjoyed the game a lot! Also I like how most things are really cute and then the nanny is wayyy creepy. Great job!!!
Keep up the good work!
- The sensibility was too high on my Macbook/trackpad, and the keyboard made the game hard to navigate.
- I got stuck on exiting the music box and could not move anymore or do anything but open the sound menu.
- I don't know what triggered the speed challenges (pressing keys), but it was always too fast for me to complete. So, it didn't bring value to the game
Great entry otherwise
As the game has a slight rotation when moving, I would have found it way more interessting if the rotation would be towards (and also looking at) the creep in the window.
It also seemed to have some Qick time events, at least it felt like it...

The idea of trying to find plushies in a dark house while being stalked by a nanny is cool and the mini games/ puzzles were a nice addition but it would've been a lot better in darkness
I didn't really feel the horror elements too much here, but I'm also glad it wasn't a jumpscare fest.
Nice game :)
EDIT:
My rating of your game is changed to be lower to reflect your foul play in this event.
Coming to your page and digging more, you have 200+ karma from feedback yet you only have 3.75 ratings given.
I dug even deeper after seeing this and you posted the same copy pasted message to plenty people and never rated them.
This is cheating and please stop it, this kind of behaviour is not welcomed in this community. @pov @aegisfate



I started doing this, but later I stopped doing this and now I am doing other things. I will definitely edit the feedback
where I left such a review and give an objective assessment. Contact me discord if this happened to you: user126273394
You are upping your game in the 'feedback' category and fishing nice people coming here and playing your game and giving you an honest rating. Which results in upping your game in popular games category.
Not cool.
Now looking at the comments it shows your team is having some weird behavior to try and up your game artificially. That's a bummer - I don't think your submission needs that to stand out :/ @burchyn is right. Not cool. Please stop doing that :pray:
The theme is very well realized.
First of, thats creepy af! And allthought this game defenetly need a lot of polishing i like it! Thanks!
I couldn't get past the music box. Just couldn't figure out what do I need to do there and after some clicking around, the mini-game broke.
Good luck to your team in future projects!

And disrespect to your team for spamming comments like "I really liked this game! It's awesome!" without playing the game, speculating on karma. This is absolutely obvious from your statistics.

The gameplay is simple but efficient!

Good job!
Also it wasn't always clear what was going on with the camera and why I had to occasionally press button to continue. Some visual and audio feedback regarding being spotted would be nice.
was really sad to see proofs of cheating system in the comments :'( it would have placed alright even without that, im sure, you are skilled enough to win this without any tomfoolery, камон
`Karma from Feedback given: 423` is the current counter.
Even though they claimed they stopped doing that above.
CC @pov
Good job !
And the worst part is that you claim to have stopped doing it, but then you actually continue doing it for more than a week. Shame on you.
