Audio scared the shit out of me. xD Nice name though. :)

Cool idea, wish the view port allowed me to see more of the scenario. Or that at least there was a hint as to where the portal was (an arrow?).

Good game. Sometimes it's a bit too hard to know where exactly the portal is, and sometimes I feel it's really dependent on luck alone if I can or can't find the portal.

Audio is very scary. The game is very challenging :) Nice job.

Hahahahaha, this one really threw me for a loop and I was constantly disoriented. Lotsa fun!

Audio is great - could have done with an indication where the portal was, however, allowing me to chase it down! Jumping was a little imprecise - had no sense of really being in control.

Thank you for all the comments, I'm glad you had fun with the game and get scared with the audio too. In the near future we intend to improve those ideas and fix things like "Where is the portal?". Sorry for my English, I am not native speaker.

The funny part is that I was responsible for the music and sounds, without knowing any theory or practice with it, I loved all these feedbacks.:D

Good concept, scary audio, funny name and generally nice. My only complaint is that there's no way in telling where the portal is, it's just luck. An arrow or something would be helpful :)

I don't like installers :(

The game was fairly solid in all aspects, though it was very repetitive. Not being able to know where the portal is makes it almost impossible to go back in time more than two or three times.

Nicely done, though i think your audio needs a little work on, i think it's too loud. Also, had a hard time figuring out what was the portal in the first place.

Regardless, nicely done :)
