That's hilarious, but I can't play windows games. Are you going to post a video of the playtrhough?

I don't care about the lack of levels, I still want to know how you managed that in two days. Pretty damn good.

Two minor (and I do mean minor) issues: firstly, when I opened the game it triggered SteamVR to open (not a problem, just closed SteamVR), and in the last level, I found it sort of annoying that holding down a direction didn't keep Liam moving in a straight line as the camera rotated (I can adjust, just prefer he'd keep moving straight as long as I'm holding down a direction) but that may just be me.

What? he is naked now? haha
i like it, it was fun and simple to do.
for some reason when i attempted the first level i was stuck after getting both the cheeses, but it worked the second time i tried.
could use some kind of walk animation for liam so he doesn't just slide across the floor... naked...
great game!

Why is Liam so naked and moist?! Funny game with interesting puzzle mechanics. I appreciate how there are many different ways to win a level. The voiceover really pushed it over the top. Nice work.

Really funny game, i think liam was nervous the whole time, not sure why. The voiceover was hilarious but the sound quality on it was a little crispy.

Make all your game characters very moist. One day I'll get enough Liam's to escape the test chamber, I promise.

moist and cool. also rip my ears.

seriously though, really funny game. liam dies a bit too easily at times, but it was a pretty unique concept and it was really fun to play!

Kudos for the humor and the VO! I had fun playing this neat puzzle game.

The music was a little annoying.
WASD isn't friendly with all keyboards (notably AZERTY), alternative Arrows or 5123 on numeric keypad are easy to set up in UE4.
