Reminds me of Exit 8. I personally don't have the patience to play spot-the-difference, i wish the anomalies were a bit more obvious.

@slavturtle it's a pretty big inspiration yup! :) ,i'm going to work on adding more (obvious) anomalies after the jam ends ,thanks for the feedback

Nice fun memory game, I couldn't figure it out in the beginning, but it was smooth sailing after a couple tries!

Nice game, fun spot the difference sort of mechanic. I think it would have been nice if it highlighter the anomaly in some way when I got it incorrect so I know for next time. I was confused about what I kept getting wrong sometimes. But that is just an opinion, I can see why that might ruin the game too.

Some anomalies were probably too obvious, some other are hards (probably fine tho). I don't know how well you want to balance things like this in an Exit-8 like, felt a bit too unbalanced to me. I whish you added a twist on the gameplay, but it's a complete game that's quite fun. Congrats, it's a great first submission!

@rawb i feel like it might make the game too easy as people would just rush in and just check what they had wrong on that room, which isn't the aim of the game.
Though i might add it if the player takes too long to figure it out, Thanks for your suggestion and feedback ! :)

I got to floor seven! At first I felt kind of frustrated with the small differences, but later having finished it, I realized the differences weren't usually that small, I just didn't know what normal was. So I think if I have anything to say about this, it would be it's good to show what normal is if you're asking to spot the difference. Kind of thought provoking in that way, good job!

Really nice memory game. I found it really hard at start, didn't know where to look but after a couple of tries I understood. I can tell sometimes I could not find differences so it may be cool to have a feedback on where the anomaly was after a lot of tries. Anyway great work!

Good mood, nice and cosy style. I wish the diferences were more obvious.

Reminds me of Exit 8 and Shinkansen 0, but in a nicer setting, as commentators wrote above, the game would not hurt the diversity of anomaly, and perhaps some kind of catchy soundtrack, in total a very nice game

@heretic exactly, i really like those games too!, as for the soundtrack, i thought about it, but without spoiling much, some anomalies require to be attentive to sound, so it might feel frustrating when these appear, thank you for your feedback

@bx007 that's the idea, wanted to see what 2D anomaly game would be like, thank you for your comment :)

Very clever! You had me doubting my own memory so much. Such subtle differences. Such an insidious game...

This game made evident how bad my memory is! Some things were evident, others not so much, so I would have liked more feedback on what I got wrong. Otherwise graphics were simple and cute, I like that a lot!

Loved this entry, really fun anomaly detection game. 2D was a great way to experience it. Great Job! I'll be looking forward to the post jam release!

It would be cool if you were able to make it so that when you walk into the wrong door, it zooms into the anomaly that way you're able to tell what was wrong! Pretty fun game, hello from the stream!

I thought the art was cute. At first the gameplay was a bit confusing, after a few minutes it seemed like it was still at the beginning. I reached the end, but I confess that I passed a few levels without understanding why.

Congratulations for the game.
