Maybe, I'm missing something, but I have very little idea what I'm suppose to be doing. I like the premise of this game a lot. Having to escort a box and when carrying it you can't shoot is a fairly interesting idea, especially with the theming you chose. I just am not sure how to play this game. There's a little room I can go into with lore but there's no button press, no new exits, nothing to change how I approach the game. There are two doors and I can't find a way to open them. By jumping under them, I can phase through the wall above them and see there is stuff behind one of them of them, but not the other. The most notable thing is a beeping sound will start and increase intensity and then I will die. And I have no idea why. I have no idea how to stop my death or even what caused it. Maybe that's the point - you'll locked in a room with a mysterious box and it's driving you insane. I don't know, I feel like I'm missing something.

Interesting game, but too hard for me. I could not carry box through elevator, it flew in air. But i liked old style graphics.

Quick reminder to get more players: Use a thumbnail for your game. Otherwise your game is presented with this grey box. Some great Games are not played because of a missing thumbnail ... You can still change it by editing your submission page :)

I love the look of the gun sprite, 2d billboard sprites in a 3d game is always a look I love. The first monster looks really good too, and the levels are neat. The atmosphere is wonderful. Do the teleporter pods recharge the box? It doesn't seem to be working for me. It's always a challenge to telegraph what the player should/can do in a game jam game. My game has the same issue. Still, I love the feel of this game, I think you really succeeded in delivering on a heavy atmosphere and mystery that left me wanting more. Reminded me a lot of the SCP series.

Interesting, i like the mood on this one. Remind me half life. The idea to protect and escort a misterious box is very good !

The visuals and the atmosphere in the game is really interesting. I do not really understand the gameplay idea, and I was never able to survive for very long. Overall is this an okay little jam game.

I really liked the ambiance of your game, however I didn't know what to do, to keep the container safe, it lost life no matter what I was doing (on the cold or on the heat).

But, there is some potential in your game, it gave me some Half-Life vibes !

this game can make me nervous. but i can't understand what's wrong and why am I dying, that break all mood.

It was a very bad idea to use the same sprite for switch buttons and environment because it confuses the player. A minute ago you saw a button and now it's just a piece of some object with no functionality. I am talking about yellow ones.
