I Need Some Space
Description
In 'I Need Some Space,' you awaken trapped and disoriented in a series of dark, oppressive rooms. Each room presents a new puzzle—a question that tests your wits, morality, and general knowledge. Answer correctly and proceed to the next challenge. Fail, and face the deadly embrace of closing walls. Guided by the voice of Evelyn—an intellectual psychopath doubting your worth—you must navigate this chilling game of survival. Will you prove yourself worthy, or will ignorance be your downfall? Survive the questions or face the consequences.Screenshots

Great job with sound. The theme of the jam is well disclosed. It would be great to give an answer without waiting for the end of the question. There are no checkpoints.

It's really great, love the voice over work ! But the game is really just lacking checkpoints unfortunately. Still a very inspiring entry!

I am getting an error when trying to start the game: "Following components are required to run this program: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime".

Cool to see a narrative-driven entry. And a very nice entry overall!
Sadly got stuck on my first try, space between the walls was too small for me to move but the door was open.
Still happy to have reached the end.

Really immersive narrative experience, it was a joy to play. I really liked how you combined it with trivia questions. Nice use of the theme as well. I felt like you made sure to keep the scope reasonable but really flesh out what you had. And I loved the voice-overs! One of my favorite entries for sure.
Are there multiple endings (not counting the game-over)?

Very polished entry! Unique idea and great visuals. I think it might have benefitted from some sort of equivalent sound or acknowledgement for correct answers to have a better back-and-forth between the characters, since the blank space with no "incorrect" was kind of awkward.

I alway like to see narrative games in the LD. And with VO! Nice!

Great job with sound.

Guys you take really intresting idea on limited space theme. I like the gameplay, graphics and sounds, made really professionally. Game is polished but I found one bug, if the walls don't kill you but are very very close, you move like teleport to exit, but in the end you can't escape. Nice entry!

Great game! I liked the exposition of the theme!)

The idea is interesting, and I like the visuals. The female voice acting was good, and the male one is okay but also sometimes it's a bit weird. I would liked more of story, and less of a weird trial quiz. But overall it is a pretty well made jam game.

The atmosphere is very successful. It's a pity that at the end of the questions you're too close to the walls, and that it takes a long time to walk 1m while stuck between the 2 walls.
I like the vision of the concept otherwise!

That voice is so hawt but i don't have the patience to do this all over again 10 times because i didn't get the last answer (or pre-last or pre-pre-last i'll never know)
Or at least let the player skip the voice lines if they know the answer already :(
