Behind the Noise
There are some mornings when you (ok, when I) wake up and can't find something you need very much, your (my) home looks like a clutter labyrinth. But even in the loudest noise you always can hear the signal of hope.
How to play:
1. Turn on sound!
1. Walk around your first location and try to find some music hints
1. Follow the music. If you're walking for some time and there is only noise or you lost the music, turn back until it is not too late! Don't let the chaos absorb you! (ok, nothing happens to you, just noise and clutter, you are punished by boredom)
!!!Disability TW!!!
1. You need to be able to hear sound to play
1. Images on the wall are quite noisy (pun intended), black and white
1. You will hear brown noise, if you're sensitive to this things proceed with caution
!!!Disability TW!!!
If the controls freak out:
This is due to unique combination of Wayland, Mozilla and WebGL. Go to this awesome bug on mozilla bug tracker, and add your +1 there.

Thanks to:

I got a bit lost with the last cassete haha! I really wanted to find it because it was just so close but couldn't find the path lol. Cool idea!

I really liked the concept of chasing music signal and the way you construct this game; the music was great too, so I think I'll look into the artists later lol. The only thing I wondered after playing was that the difficulty between the levels wasn't well-balanced. The second level was quite easy to find, so I think it would be better if you extended the duration of the second level rather than the third. But overall, I really liked how you developed the concept and gameplay. Good work!

This was sick! Great job, I'm sad it was only 3 levels haha

Well… it wasn’t bad, but it felt a bit too simple.

These devs have GREAT taste in music, haha!
For real though, this game is such a vibe. The core gimmick is simple but works really well. It honestly feels a bit underutilized, and I mean that in the best way possible. I want to see more of this! Invisible walls? Non-Euclidean world design? Darkness? There's a lot of potential here to turn what would normally be annoying and confusing mechanics into something interesting and engaging when you have the music to guide you!🎵🎵

I'm with most of the previous comments: a bit too short, but there's potential for extending. Like maybe put some puzzles in, or give player a pencil so they can manually rewind the cassette ;)

Cool idea with good execution! Definitely got through it pretty quickly but I enjoyed the concept presented in the description! Well done!

Did you steal my playlist? :D

Got good use out of my headphones, classic music picks! I doubt anyone will get this but I feel like I'm in that one Funhaus office wallpaper. Works for the great message and nice little maze, good work!!

Well made small labyrinth with good overall idea. Nice songs to find and easy to see your way even with that texture on the walls. Nice job.
Wuppos29 Apr 2026, 20:18
This was fun! Am I right in thinking that the maze changes depending on whether or not you follow the music? If not, it defenitely felt that way to me :D I think this was a very nice way to do a maze game. It was way more interesting than just being lost in a maze until you find the exit. Well done!

I can't say that I enjoyed PLAYING, but the visuals are amazing!
Finding the casettes worked good for me. I was motivated to find them all. ;)
