The graphics and effects are impressive, especially the meteorites and fire trails. The scene is short but impactful, showing how time can destroy everything. The sound design adds to the atmosphere. Overall, it’s a well-made and engaging cutscene.

The ticking clock and demon screams create a creepy feel. The slow zoom on the clock builds suspense. The visuals are well done. Overall, it’s a chilling scene.

I absolutely love it! The cutscene is both fun and creative, with a well-paced story that features a fantastic twist at the end. The villain’s animations, particularly the watch-checking, are a nice touch. The 8-bit art style and music fit perfectly, evoking a nostalgic feel. It instantly reminded me of the Prince of Persia.

So many animations for main character in a really short time - amazing work. TIme shift is communicated nicely with a time on screen, that’s a nice touch. Ending could be accompanied by more dramatic soundtrack but I love it anyway

I am a slow reader in this case. I would need a little bit slower speed for dialog speed. The dialogs were nicely written. In a short time you put a lot of development and story into a cutscene.

More time would suit this well.

For art - I love the visuals, nice art for characters and background. Also the sound of the air fits to the visuals, which I appreciate.

I love this cut scene, the visual, art and music is really great!

It is a cool idea! I like the dithering effects and the interesting combination of 2D and 3D.

I love the paper effect! Good cutscene :)

The concept is exciting and intense, playing chess with death. I like it and the music and art are great!

We are glad that you like our game! Yes, spikes showed up because of the lockdown and evil AI :)

Thank you for your feedback! Yes, the jumpscares look more like collectibles than jumpscares :) We’re glad that you like our game!

It is a cute and nice game. I was struggling at the beginning, but then I found the hints button.

Cool game! I like the art. The gameplay is interesting. I was surprised that dead bodies block bullets, but it makes sense and adds an interesting element to the gameplay.

I’m sorry, but I have no idea how to play this game. I tried several times, but still no luck. Maybe a better tutorial or some highlights could help. Also, I had a little issue with the resolution—I have a 1080p screen, and it seems to be not enough.

It’s a pretty good start for your first game. I like the art and style.

I love art style, blacksmith animations are good. Dungeon is cool and I like the upgrade system. Maybe I consider rebalancing game, two HP for enemies is maybe too much.

I enjoyed the atmosphere and art style is amazing. Great and relaxing game!

The puzzles were fun. I like art. Game is small, but great!

Really cool game. I love the idea :)

I struggled at the beginning and couldn’t figure out what to do. Maybe a quick tutorial or some hints in a dialog would help. Once I figured it out, the game was great! The art, concept, and mechanics are nice!

I think it’s a good idea and concept, but I’m having trouble with the gameplay, but overall a good game. Great job!

I like it and I love reference to The Thing. Atmosphere and art is great!

Just only thing for MS Edge game windows is too small. I had issue with reading dialogs and most of text. So I tried Firefox and it is working good.

That’s a funny game :)

Nice game! I love art and visuals, and writing is solid. It’s a little bit long for a game jam I think, but overall great game!

Interesting game. The platforming mechanics are somehow satisfying. The music and sound effects are good.

Just one thing. The resolution is too high, I think because I can not fit that into my full HD screen.

I like the idea. It’s interesting, and I enjoyed the game. It’s amazing that one person made this! Great job!

Great game! I enjoyed the game. Art is simple and it’s working well. I love the effect for respawning player; hints at the level’s start are valuable.

I love it! Destressing is funny. I like the art style and music is great! It is really fine game.

It’s an interesting concept. I like the atmosphere; audio and I love art! The dialogs are great, and I enjoy interacting with the environment. It is fun to play!

I like the concept, creepy. Art is great, limited color palet works good!

Hello, yes I will definitely check out your game!

Here is our game: https://itch.io/jam/game-off-2024/rate/3107182

Hi! Here is our game Stellar Secrets. Any feedback is welcomed and appreciated.

Fun real-time deckbuilder. The gameplay is engaging, and strategy keeps me hooked. I like graphics and art. I really liked the creative design of the creatures. It’s a great game!

I like it. The hand-drawn paper art style is great. The audio is chill. Navigation, exploration, and environmental traps are good! The weapons and how you get them as you progress are nice.

One suggestion: add some signal for the bomb ticking or a visual notice for the player. I got killed because, when I first placed the bomb, I didn’t know if I needed to interact with it to start defusing.

Thank you for your feedback. Yes, I agree that a save system would help, but unfortunately, we can’t implement one in time.

Yes, I will try your game and let you comment, thanks!

I like the game. I love the graphics and art. The signs are great! It took me a while to understand what each sign means.

I love the twist! The dialogues and jokes are cool. And of course, the gnomes are great!

Yesterday, itch.io was slow and showed a ‘too many requests’ errors. Is everything okay?

I tried the web version on Edge, Firefox, and Chrome on Windows and Linux (Fedora). Everything seems fine now. Let me know if you have any issues.

I want to say, it’s a really interesting game. I like the audio and the way you pick cyphers and place them on the monitor. However, I struggled with the controls for decryption and often found myself lost. I didn’t know when I was doing it right or wrong.

I really enjoyed the music and effects, and the art style is fantastic. However, I found the puzzles quite confusing, which made it difficult for me to progress.

Overall, it’s a visually appealing game with great audio. I thought the puzzles could be a bit more intuitive, or maybe I just didn’t get it

I really like the old-school style of this game. The music is good, and the art is appealing.

However, one thing that annoyed me was the movement. You can move half a block, which often makes me miss doors. That was quite frustrating.
