Toby's Room - Sinus' Version by DefinetlyNotSinus

made by DefinetlyNotSinus for Ludum Dare 57 (EXTRA)

Best Played on itch.io (link below)

Follow a father as he explores the depths of his child’s abandoned room and dwells on the past.

This Game can be considered a "remastered" version of my teams' original entry for the 72h ludum dare 57 gamejam. The way the original games' story turned out didn't really satisfy me. Because the story's main theme is very personal to me, I decided to restructure and expand the story so it is more in line with what I had originally envisioned. Of course, credit goes to my team, which developed the original version of the game (link below).

Great entry, quit sentimental.
I qould have like some puzzle stuff to force the pplayer to listen to the story and think about it.

Great jobs guys.

So sad!! Also, relatable. Thank you for sharing this.

The gameplay was I think a bit too "simple", and i think if the text was placed in the middle of the screen rather than on the side, and bigger, it would have been more interesting. But i really liked the sound design and the music, well done ! :clap:

I thought this was really interesting! The gameplay was simple but engrossing. I liked how you were going deeper into the room and the relationship at the same time. The music and art were also both quite good. Great work!

Cool game, love the art, audio and the story. Personally I'd like more gameplay elements other than clicking but the game works well as is, great job! I enjoyed it

I was pleasantly surprised by how personal it was, which is definitely nice to see! The quote at the beginning is a good one to be reminded of.

The art, sound effects, background track and simple gameplay provide a good stage for the little stories. Good work!

Very sad, but still a lot of charm and humor within the description of the items! Also very lovely art, great work!

Very cool that you used the extra category to provide an altered version (definitely will have to check out the original version) Fantastic audio and graphics! Touching story but with some humor in it and very charming game!

I really liked going through the references and was surprised with how much the feelings hit me for this. It made me miss my old room in my grandmas house. Great work with it.
