Can relate to the game content :)
But the controls made it frustrating to play
Nice voice acting!

I love the ps1-style graphics. Your sound design is also nicely done. You had a funny idea for this theme. And your game is kind of innovative. I liked it.

Managed to complete the game and I got 3 minutes to spare :D Great game overall!

That game gave me some Silent Hill memories :D I liked that style. Also if you try to drag exit door at start you will get terrific sound effect (but I liked it, haha)

Nice visuals, I love PS1 style graphics and they work super nicely with the sound design you went for.
I found the doors to be quite hard to drag sometimes but I guess it works given the situation our poor hero is in.
Uncapped vertical camera movement is a nice touch that adds to the feeling of being hungover. Also, the voice acting is spot-on, `humor++`! :D

I like the hints scattered around the apartment. I could see people relating to the story. I think the audio is unbalanced and initial menu volume is way to high. I als think that moving could use a little bit of acceleration and deceleration.

Nice little experience! Love the visuals and the audio is hilarious but a little bit loud. Really fun! Good job!

The concept here is excellent and on-theme. The playability of the game was very rough for me personally (playing on a track pad though). The controls going in reverse and the screen shaking I could probably overcome with time, but the screen incessantly flashing white was very discomforting (understandable why you added it though). Fun little piece!

I really like the idea of this game but I found that the sensitivity to the mouse difficult while using a track pad, it was so sensitive that I ended up with the entire camera view being upside down. It was still fun to play as the intensity of the heart beat kept it enjoyable and the voice over parts were quite funny as well.

Nice concept and I love the retro graphics. I had a very hard time opening doors and the mouse sensitivity was a bit fast for my taste but overall, I felt very unstable! :D

I dig those PS1 style graphics! The game was simple and fun, and the voicelines were a nice addition!
Good entry!

Original take on the theme I couldn't stand the flashing lights in the beginning though. Might take it easy on those effects
Quite Good

Great game concept. The overall mood was really well done with the old school visuals, sound effects and excellent voice acting (rare in jam games!). The gameplay was a bit frustrating, and I wish that the debilitating lights/shaking/movement were a bit toned down. Looking forward to see what you make next!

Play this game on a Saturday morning and the feeling of Friday still hasn't left me, this was truly an immersive experience! I loved the sound of the beating hard I could really feel it.
Dragging to open doors was a bit weird, I couldn't lift the toilet seat up even though it told me to drag

Awesome idea and game. I love the art style and that its 3D, also the effects are interesting but after a little while make you feel just like the main protagonist... well done

Thanks I hate it!

Unique take on theme and mechanics fit it really nicely. Art and sound design work well together with the game. Great job!

The devs definitely know what hangovers are like.

Really cool graphics, and the voiceover was a nice touch too. I like how small the game world was, but how detailed it was inside.

Good job :)

I'm a big fan of the artstyle, kinda wish there were more games that looked like this. Unfortunately, I thought it was a bit frustrating to play. I understand that the point is to make the character difficult to control as a consequence of the hangover, but that "mechanic" does not translate into a very fun gameplay experience.

Still, stellar presentation. If the gameplay is tweaked a bit then this has the potential to be a really great game.

Solid entry! The only problem I had with it was how high the sensitivity was! Although that may have been the point to add to the unstableness, but either way it did make things a bit frustrating to play. Every game doesn't have to be built around being the most fun though of course, games are also the best medium for emulating another's experience, and this does that very well! Definitely felt unstable lol. Aside from the sensitivity (which may be intentional) I did not run into any bugs, so great job on the polish! Voice acting was fitting and the lines funny, sound design was minimalistic but good, and the retro visuals tie it all together! Great work :)

The high sensivity of the mouse is a problem

Love the retro graphics! I played for about 10 minutes and couldn't find the painkillers? I'll be honest I started to get frustrated after having to go back to bed for the fifth or sixth time lol overall I think it fit the theme well, I wish I had the patience to finish but still a fun concept!
