A short mystery made for ludum dare 47 - 'Stuck in a Loop'
The game is complete and beatable -- you will see a credits screen at the end! There are tips at the end of this page if you get stuck. It is possible to bet the game in around 2 mins once you figure out the puzzle.
WASD: move
Space: interact
You, an adventurer, find yourself entering a pub named The Deja Brew on a Friday night, oddly without any memory of how you got there. It seems lively, and there's a place to rest.
But something about it seems strange. After spending the night, nobody recognizes you the next day...

- Kingthings font
- gamepeanutbutters base code
- Blender 2.8 and Krita for art
- FL Studio, Blue Yeti microphone, cheap guitar, various random objects around my house for sound. Also sampled from the sonniss.com free gdc sound pack
Characters teleport instead of walking. They're all wizards.
The state of the pub resets every day.
Some things will happen independently of your direct actions.
There is a way to get an item if you can convince a few characters to do certain things at certain times.
There is a character in a hidden spot in the pub. If you're feeling particularly murderous for some reason, make sure to check everywhere before giving up!
