**IMPORTANT NOTE; You must use chromium based browser(Chrome,Opera,Brave etc.) in order to play.
There is a "todo now" text left of music box which will tell you whats the goal any time.
Gameplay Hint : After Collecting runes you need to keep pressing e or left mouse button to arrange light points to sphere. When you create sphere, you will get a hint for rune order(which you collected). To proceed to the next level, you need to arrange the runes in the correct order on the music box and turn the handle. The game is not over until you see a body lying on the ground. Have fun!
love yall!

The art style is really great and it has nice audio, but it is also too confusing.
Love the particles. I might've hit the softlock though, as I got a two-rune sequence and couldn't figure out how to put it into the music box after messing up.
I did not understand the ending, but apparently it should be so...
Необычный геймплей, есть некоторый сюжет и крутой минимализм с интересными механиками, 10 из 10
That said, the technical side needs work. Sensitivity settings are missing, and for me personally, it wasn’t always clear what I was supposed to do.
Still, it’s a solid foundation — keep going, you’re onto something!
But the presentation was great. The game looks amazing and the moments when everything turns dark and red really invoke a crazy mood.
Here's the time when I played it on stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=3h14m50s
At first, I was a bit confused because I didn't notice that the path extended behind me, but thanks to the text hints I got it and made progress. I also liked the effect when you start bending the environment and the music fades out, and this is a cool mechanic for discovering items.
I'm not sure if I reached the end or missed something, but I couldn't quite follow the last instruction when the music box changed.
Overall, I enjoyed my time playing and love the art and sound design. Nice work!
Oddly soothing and spooky atmosphere at the time. The visuals and sound design are great!
I did found the puzzle mechanics a bit confusing though that could be just me being bad at puzzle games.
I returned 4 stones to the music box, but couldn't figure out how to get the other parts. It did play a short melody with stones appearing on the screen if you shake your hands for long enough, but other than that I couldn't discover anything else and the music box didn't play for long enough.
The shift in tone when you leave the bubble zone (?) was eerie as if something was out to get me.
Great work on the game!
