Sound Of Ignorance

when the wall particles shifted for the first time i got goosebumps. I think i did find a bug though - if you try entering the combination before getting all to runes you can softlock yourself

On Firefox I am seeing only black screen.

The game looks good but I couldn't undrestand tha main mechanics. Overall good job!

I am confused. :'D I collected 5 runes, then clicked them in random order and then I got stuck.

The art style is really great and it has nice audio, but it is also too confusing.

I thought the runes were the rainbows and cats and unicorns for so long ;_;

Love the particles. I might've hit the softlock though, as I got a two-rune sequence and couldn't figure out how to put it into the music box after messing up.

Great, creepy mood. The mechanics could be a little clearer, I also spent quite a while on trying to figure out how to get the signs which, as it turned out, weren't runes. And I also softlocked myself by accidentally staring to enter the combination prematurely. Great entry, thanks!

Good mood

Sound, atmosphere, everything is on point! Beautiful melody! And yes, I also got stuck when I entered the wrong combination. I had to reboot a couple of times. I didn't understand the ending.

I didn’t understand too. And thank you so much

Very atmospheric and beautiful!! If after death I am offered where I will hang out - I am ready to walk in this darkness endlessly

I did not understand the ending, but apparently it should be so...

Обожаю атмосферу в игре и рисунки на фоне, процесс затягивает. В особенности здесь я люблю звуковое сопровождение. Идеально подобраны музыка самой шкатулки и напрягающие тихие звуки, когда выходишь за пределы сейв зоны. Единственное что стоит добавить - это больше подсказок, так как уходит много времени на то чтобы понять что делать
Необычный геймплей, есть некоторый сюжет и крутой минимализм с интересными механиками, 10 из 10

I moved it jam to extra, fixed a lot of bugs and added new stuff. If you wish you can give another shot and maybe try again lol. Thank you so much for trying

Very difficult game to figure out what was happening, but the music and atmosphere was amazing. Great environment and mood. Would like to see clearer instructions and how to play laid out a bit more, but it was really a nice time

Very trippy and I do like the visuals!! Wish it was a bit more clear what to do. I played your game on stream today (ManishaGameDev), just dropping a comment + rating now :) Thank you for your patience while I was playing haha

@midnightmist i do little improvements on gameplay after getting feedbacks in ur stream and it helped a lot. Thank you so much!

incredible experience, great game

Wildly cool, fantastic use of music. Properly spooky, with trippy visuals that manage to still be understandable so you can progress. Awesome work, keep it up!

I shouldn't have played this right before bed. Nightmare time. But in all honestly, very creative, I can't believe you even came up with such an idea so quickly. Well done, and congrats on your submission!

Very cool experience, if a little confusing. Here's a vod of me playing https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2427848024?t=2h11m11s

Whoah, awesome! Love the vibe of this game, even though I have no idea what's going on. I wasn't quite able to understand the whole gameplay sequence but the experience was awesome nonetheless. The game also crashed on me in browser (using Chrome). But I love the hand-drawn artstyle and the unique feel of the game. Good job!

Little confusing, but very interesting

I love this art style!

@baizeqwq artstyle loves you too!

Really cool concept built around mystery. It feels like something in the vein of "Layers of Fear" — where the core drive is uncovering a hidden truth. The visuals are great, and the audio fits the vibe well. There’s real potential here — people love madness, mystery, and that sense of the unknown. Plus, you’ve got a strong visual style that could really help the game stand out.

That said, the technical side needs work. Sensitivity settings are missing, and for me personally, it wasn’t always clear what I was supposed to do.

Still, it’s a solid foundation — keep going, you’re onto something!

Hey man! I really struggled with the puzzle design. I didn't know how to collect symbols at all.

But the presentation was great. The game looks amazing and the moments when everything turns dark and red really invoke a crazy mood.

Here's the time when I played it on stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=3h14m50s

I love the art style and soundtrack, unlocking a new part of the music was awesome. Combined with the particles, visual effects, and animations, everything looks great and creates a cool, immersive atmosphere.

At first, I was a bit confused because I didn't notice that the path extended behind me, but thanks to the text hints I got it and made progress. I also liked the effect when you start bending the environment and the music fades out, and this is a cool mechanic for discovering items.

I'm not sure if I reached the end or missed something, but I couldn't quite follow the last instruction when the music box changed.

Overall, I enjoyed my time playing and love the art and sound design. Nice work!

Quite creepy, the visuals, especially the way everything moves, is unique and settles the mood very well. A bit confused on the purpose and directions in what to do, which kind of comes with this type of mysterious game. Interesting entry and nice job! :)

nice game!

Thank you for submitting your game to my stream. You didn't catch me there in time to play so I did so off the stream :slight_smile:

Oddly soothing and spooky atmosphere at the time. The visuals and sound design are great!

I did found the puzzle mechanics a bit confusing though that could be just me being bad at puzzle games.

I returned 4 stones to the music box, but couldn't figure out how to get the other parts. It did play a short melody with stones appearing on the screen if you shake your hands for long enough, but other than that I couldn't discover anything else and the music box didn't play for long enough.

The shift in tone when you leave the bubble zone (?) was eerie as if something was out to get me.

Great work on the game!
