Cool game! However the camera movement is a bit weird

Good game! I liked the way that you had to constantly press the buttons while trying to solve simple puzzles at the same time. The voice acting and calm music were great and really added to the experience. It was rather difficult hitting the number buttons (I always had to aim for the button above the one I was tying to hit) and winning and losing were a bit weird and anti-climatic, but other than that, it was really nice!

fantastic job! :ok_hand:

Good job. The movement is weird, but pretty neat. I just don't like how you have to press buttons constantly.

The voice acting was top notch!
Had fun playing this!

Good job!

That was great and really innovative! The voice acting made it really fun. Better plot than Lost.

This is a solid effort. The puzzle is pretty fun to figure out. It could have easily been boring just looking for keys and safe combinations, but the looming threat of not letting the timer run out makes it exhilarating.

awesome game! really enjoyed this one. the keypad input is a bit off when very close, but if you take a step back it works just fine. thank you for a great experience!

Very interesting game. The requirement to press the buttons adds a somewhat novel little challenge, but much more interesting to me is the psychological aspect of it. When I actually played all the way through the game, I kept pressing the buttons *without knowing whether I actually needed to or not*. You could have made the solution for winning the game be to let the timer tick down and I still would have completed the rest of the tasks first!

This is of course because I had already put some time into manipulating some of the objects in the game and so I didn't want to waste that time by needing to do it all over again, if the buttons did end up doing something bad.

As a nitpick I will say I felt the tasks in the game felt a little uninspired... a series of keys and numerical codes. But I think that the central concept of the buttons is interesting enough that the rest of the gameplay doesn't really matter per se.

All in all, a very unique experience! :smile:

The moment I saw the buttons I immediately thought of the tv show Lost :smile:. This was a cute little game. Yeah the keypad pressing was frustrating at times but solving the puzzle while also managing the button presses was satisfying. The interface was simple and clean. The music was delightful to listen to and voice over really added to the mood of the game. Congrats on finishing and submitting your game!

I really liked your game cool ideas :v:

Really cool concept. We would have liked to get to a similar stage with ours but crunch time started beating us. Loved the voice over and tension of having to keep resetting the timer. Well done.

Simple and stressful! Somewhat addictive for such a short game. The mouse sensitivity was a little to high for me. For increased difficulty there could be a different sequence for the buttons to press each time. Overall nice work!

Nice little game ! Had fun playing

I've made a video where I try out a bunch of Ludum Dare games, including yours. If you'd like to check that out here's the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pj-l261Esr0

Very cute "EscapeRoom"-type game, button presses on dial pads are a bit inacurate thou. I enjoyed it a lot! :D

@jimmakesgames Thanks for sharing that! It was heart warming to see someone react and play to the game. :)
I'll definitely check out the other games in the video.

Very cool game! It had a total escape room feel while taking on a unique twist for the theme in making sure you get back in time to press the buttons. You didn’t opt out of the audio category but I didn’t hear any audio on the web version? It could use at least like a beeping sound effect to warn the player if the countdown is about to end, and could add to the suspense. Great job!

@snowinn That's weird. Normally the web version has sound. What browser did you use ?

I was playing on Safari and the sound wasn't showing up. I just replayed and revoted the sound category for your game and I really liked it ! The voice acting was nice. Sorry about that !

@snowinn No worries, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :smile:

I loved it ! It worked very smoothly and I liked the voice acting (french accent?)
Also is this a LOST reference ?

@bordonne Glad you enjoyed the game. And indeed, you have found out my secret! I'm french.

I really enjoyed it! Love the mechanic of 'having to do thing x while trying to solve puzzle. Quite similar in vein to our game (up to the voice acted overseer character), think you might enjoy it :)

I like the basic idea - find key => open door => find more keys. The timer adds tension and fits in very well with the gameplay. I don't really understand how "stuck in a loop" realized in your game, but overall I like it =) Thank you for your entry!

I liked playing the game and I've achieve to escape, the default mouse sensitivity is a bit high, so it's hard to be precise to click the number on the numpads.
The voice is great.

I really enjoyed this. The graphics are neat, and the sound effects are so satisfying!

Nice puzzle game, with good audio. Pressing code buttons is a bit clunky at times but good job overall!

a great puzzle with boxes and switches and doors and keypads that would make a really cool VR experience, and could be expanded to any number of interesting puzzles using these mechanics in different and interesting ways. Nice work!

Nice job! Good balance between being stressful, keeping numbers in your head and exploring :) Mouse sensitivity was a bit high for my taste, other than that - well done, epsecially in the sound department!
