Help


I can't rotate properly or my cursor is visible in WebGL


The WebGL export seems to have some trouble to handle the page focus. I recommend to play on the Windows build or reload the page and focus out only when you finished to play.

I don't know what to do with the black smoking cube in the last room?



Tip 1:

!> Ohoh it seems you found something corrupted. How could you corrupt your run?

Tip 2:

!> Maybe you can try to use the laser to corrupt a data? What is a data actually?

Tip 3:

!> You should try to corrupt the memory card and then jump

A very neat prototype with some good ideas behind it. Well done!

i think the difficulty curve could be better, and less trial and error (the laser puzzle where the button was in the last room)

Very cool! Fun puzzles! :) The button just seems to be a bit sensitive of how and where the box is placed which made the gameplay feel a bit finnicky at times but otherwise good stuff! I also enjoyed the beginning music

The music and visuals go together perfectly, and the 3D effects look great too! If you’re looking for some games to rate, feel free to check out my profile.

The game hooked me in some way it’s a fun puzzle game but there’s a really annoying bug or perhaps a design choice where I can’t rotate the camera a full 360 degrees. Also, it’s not entirely clear how the theme of "old technology" was explored.

this is my favorite type of jam game! intuitive gameplay, amazing graphics, great vibes. my one and only nitpick is that i struggled with figuring out how to swap weapons and that brought me out of my zen mode but other than that 10/10!

The music and visuals are awesome!! It felt really trippy stepping out of that first room and seeing the "outside"! I love the physics glove the most! Pure hl2 vibes!

Some game mechanics (the glove and the checkpoint system) felt a bit unintuitive for me. I think adding some visual hints would be great. That said, I really liked the sound design and the visuals, especially the 1st location theme! Your game reminded me of Portal in a good way

I had so much fun playing your game!!
I managed to get into the little spot with the purple light in the room with the giant box, but couldn't find anything here however..
For the last room, I didn't understand at first what the black smoking cube was for, and so I tried several time to shoot the respawn element in the air, jump quickly into the void, and try to shoot again the respawn element when falling down from the sky when I respawned...

Really cool mechanic! I had a great time playing this game!

I just ran into a small bug with unloading the crates, but it's no big deal—the game is still super fun to play!
