Looks and feels really good. I honestly love the idea of the turning rooms. The only thing I didn't like was the repeating puzzles, but that has more to do with personal preferences.
Interesting game concept with the rotating rooms and the dark ambient mood. However I kinda felt that the puzzles were unnecessary, and that it was putting me on a tangent away from the actual beauty of the game. Overall great job on the game!
wauw..really beatifull..didn't get off ground level yet, but will try more..there is a lot of walking involved, perhaps speed up the characters walk a little bit, great job
Really sweet mechanic. I didn't get them all in the beginning, and I had to peak in the pictures just to find out that you can actually jump! Good work!
Nice puzzle, climbing over sideways furniture fells pretty original! The only minor quirk I see is that the puzzle interface is a bit counter-intuitive: the arrow points anticlockwise while the rooms rotate clockwise.
Great game! It took me lot of time until I find out how to solve the puzzle though :D The graphics looks very similar as in my game. We have very similar art style :)
Such a cool idea, this being made into a full game I can see happening.

Neat! Love the idea and the execution. Best of all, this idea could be expanded a lot, so if you want to continue development after LD, you have a lot of things you can do.
Great idea and solid implementation, too bad there's not much of it. I also wish there was no embed ability on new LD site, because it makes voting process much harder. Your game doesn't fit the embed frame btw.
Played through the whole puzzle, nice varied mechanics and controls are solid. Great quality effort. Would have loved to have the 'room turn' UI overlay on the actual level.
The art style is really awesome! reminds of me of old webcomics or Where's Waldo. Clever use of the theme. Game plays nice as well. It's a shame you couldn't get any sound or music though. Awesome entry!
Cool idea for a puzzle game, bit tricky to figure out what to do though. The withdrawal where he only sees computers was darkly amusing. Really nice pixel art as well! Good job.
Really clever entry. Took me a moment to realize I can jump on objects to reach other rooms, I'm surprised how short this turned out to be. However the game was very well done and fun little experience, good job.
Overall nice game. I think the puzzles were pretty simple but that also goes with this kind of style! Looks nice and simple, the objective is solid! Great idea and great game!
I hate platformers, but I loved this game! The puzzles were easy enough once I figured out I could jump. I liked the mechanic of the screen getting darker.
I feel dumb, I'm not quite sure how to actually get anywhere..... I rotated the rooms, but I don't understand how to get to the other rooms above. Derp
Cool idea, I beat the game, but somehow the sliding tile puzzles (screenshot 3) never showed up for me? All I ever did with the computers was rotate the rooms to the correct position so I could make it up higher, but it looks like there was something else in the game from that screenshot? =/

Please add some music!
i like this pixel art and a little puzzle gameplay ;]
I'd love to see this expanded into a bigger game with more challenging levels!
Love the graphic style!
also check my project if you have some time x)
Now I guess I'll have to try it out for real...
Maybe I was too lucky but the puzzle was too easy, I wanted to play for a longer time :)
Anyways congrats on your first ludumdare!
Just two things: -too easy - the jump is weird (maybe just a jump animation could fix that)
I'm not entirely sure why computers turn rooms, or why you forget about everything if you don't use a computer, or why the exit is at the top...
But that's just me, I like themes to make sense :P
Pretty good job if you disregard the things not making sense :)
