It's not much, but I managed to put together something that can actually be played from start to finish. Even if it only takes a couple of minutes :)
It's a First Person Text Adventure (FPTA) And all you do is walk around and look at text, performing different actions in a specific order to solve the puzzle.
Controls: Walk: WASD Look around: Mouse Inventory: Use left mouse button to select inventory items when visible
Aim at the different texts to highlight them, When they are highlighted you can in most cases use the different actions and use left mouse button to scroll the text.
Nice game, I like the original gameplay. However I've got stuck at the screen where I'm supposed to input some code. I can't go back to check the code and all the combinations I tried didn't work :'(
I think something is broken with the link, the game has been stuck saying `Loading game for the first time...` for at least a minute now. Tried on both the newest chrome and firefox.
Realy liked the idea. Having a spacial oriantation in a textadventur is great! Only complain I have is that Esc key also the default key to exit the "lock mouse mode" so it was kinda frustrating to leave to exit the pin code window.
This is a great idea. I particularly liked the moments where the text inform you of something around you, then you had to actual move/turn to inspect those things, it would interesting to see this aspect expanded on. I think the music detracted a little from the experience, I think some ambient noise themed to the room you're supposed to be in would be great and some sounds made to represent the actions you're performing in the game (e.g. sound of a drawer being unlocked). Nice entry though, with great potential!
@Theras@steve Thanks! Adding sounds for the actions would be neat. If I get the time I would like to fix all the annoying little bugs that prevents the players from enjoying the game. I appreciate all feedback and tips on how to make this into a full-fledged game :)
Nice execution! I wasn't sure how a first-person adventure game would play out, but I actually really liked being able to walk around between panels. I LOVED it when the bookcase panel disappeared to reveal the small room behind it. Really adds a lot to the narrative!
Too bad it's quite short because the concept is quite unique and interesting. It give a weird feeling to the "text based adventure" style of your game. Good job, I'd love to see a longer game with the same concept.
Great concept, I really appreciated how you had the text boxes in the positions where props around the environment would be - I thought that was clever! :) I encountered a bit of a bug in the final event, where even when I pressed escape the camera would remained locked on the keypad. Luckily I managed to guess the code :P Kudos on a really cool game!

For some reason, option 1 was out of screen for the whole time, but I still could complete the game :)
Nice entry overall, I really liked the graphics (I love this minimal art style).
Really hope you get at least 20 votes!
