Please update Be a long journey
Wow. that for some reason was pritty scary to me! Not because of jumpsary stuff or anything it was the kind of lingering with you scary because decrepit facilities with an unstoppable hungry monster scares me for some reason! 0_o gg dev!
Scary little game, loved it!
The game has a new idea that is really cool, to advance you must free the beast by lowering the pressure and restoring power, athough there is a good ending i think this game should not, that would be a cool ethical dilemma and makes you think "Do i really want do escape?", make the game longer pleasee.
Amazing game. When I was the people floating I was petrified. Really good psychological thriller. Wish it was longer though.8/10
I can't play it! (I'm on MacBook btw)
I can! (I'm also on MacBook btw)
Very nice, wish it was a little longer though.
When I move all of the textures start mashing together
pic?
i surprisingly managed to escape on first try, and then i went back to get all the endings. great game and story-telling! love the mini puzzles that aren't too hard but hard enough to keep you going ^^
so far so good, i like the endings i've gotten. still trying to figure out if you can get into sector-L
Sadly that sector isn't in this gamjam version of the game. You can get an idea of what's inside if you fail either of the last two puzzles.
The full extent of the facility will be explorable in Claustrum (mentioned in the description).
Amazing game! Loved the mini game/puzzle aspect and just the general overall tone. I've only gotten one ending so far, but there's a feeling of unease/dread and of a big moral dilemna throughout the game. I loved it!
wow just.... wow!! This is an amazing game and I'd love to see more! If you ever get the chance, please make a 2nd game!!!! I'd love to see more of Andrew too :
Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I am actually working on the fully developed version of this game as we speak!
Very cool game ! Love the design and atmosphere ! Keep up the good work :)
Greetings brother. I really appreciate the way you have presented this game in a very well-short way.
finished it first try
I enjoyed the main part of the game... the plot, ambiance, atmosphere, tension, etc. The puzzles are good, the sounds are very effective and the style is nice.
What a great short game it was. I liked the style and atmosphere. Original concept and something refreshing! Keep on the good work!
This was incredibly atmospheric! A great little game. I fully recommend.
Thank you very much!
The game is certainly challenging. Make one wrong option and back to the beginning you go. I wish there was a checkpoint system or safe rooms. (along those lines) the game is very atmospheric however, when you die the screen turns black and you hear horrifying sounds, i wish there was something more like image. But the game is really good! The puzzles are challenging (but can be solve) and the game gives you good world building. Good Job!
Thanks for the kind words! This is just a slightly improved version of what we made during the 48h gamejam. If we make a longer version we'll probably add checkpoints cutscenes etc. Glad to hear you still enjoyed it!
How do i play in android?
We'll make a mobile version in the future if we keep developing this game, for now that was just a mistake in the page.
EDIT: Android version now available
