The Last Tumbler

title.png
Grandmother doesn't have much time left.

She vaguely remembers her first melody from a brass music box. That she lost along with her childhood.

In this game, you must pick the locks of her memories past. Each memory reveals a piece of the mechanism. Let her hear that very first melody, one last time.

Controls

* Left and right arrow keys to switch pins
* Hold space to lift pin

Lift pins to the correct height for them to lock, and figure out the correct sequence.

Tools

* Engine: Unity
* Visuals: Drawn in Art rage (Wacom)
* Music: Made with Beepbox
* Sound effects: Tapping and scratching surfaces with an ear pendant

One word comes to mind when I think of this game: style! The graphics are absolutely stunning. Amazing work!

It’s simple, but very beautiful... However, I found it frustrating that the timing for releasing the button wasn’t more forgiving; even when I had the right combination, I sometimes had to start over because I released it either too early or too late.

I enjoyed the minimalist art style. I wasn't as much of a fan of the brute forcing required to solve the levels. I don't know if I just missed it, but I would have liked to see or have some additional mechanic for figuring out which order the pins were in other than just trial and error.

Figuring out the correct solution was a bit painful! Too much trial and error? Lockpicking minigames usually help you with visual or aditive cues (and your visuals are GOOD!) I really wanted to finish this entry, but couldn't get past the first lock :'(
