This is an amazing little game that clearly had a lot of work go into it. I love the story and choice you make at the end. Additionally, the style of the game is awesome. I love the low poly mixture of assets, some are clearly asset packages but they blend in well together.
In short, I have to say, well done. This is a wonderful sci-fi adventure.
I very much appreciated this game! I have played another game with the same assets pack, and it is a great asset pack! The story was awesome and the exploration was cool too, I did however miss some more rewarding exploration, like perhaps a hidden key to a hidden room with a hidden figure, or something of the sort, nothing game changing though. It is quite the same when you have spent so long making such a beautiful map, that nothing but the story makes an incentive to explore, which is more than enough for me, but not for most. And I would really like some hidden secrets! Despite this, it was an awesome game, far above the Indie standard!
I did encounter two bugs in my gameplay, however, they were not on recording as it was on my way for the second ending. I fell through the map twice, once at the entrance to the firewall and once at the windows in the bridge. And then it is possible to go behind the stairs in the room with the hammer and get stuck for good. And then there is the code! What is the code for! :D I spent so much time figuring out what the key was for, but I found no answers! I first assumed it was for the door, but you can open the door without the key, so it must be for something else I assume?
Lastly, must games of this quality often get discovered rather fast on itch.io, though it seems as if it is being overlooked in the browse section. I would really recommend you change the thumbnails and make them more "flashy" so to speak, they need to stand out a little more, they need to scream for attention! I myself skipped over this game first, but gave it a change as the "most recent" section had nothing all to exciting. And then ask people to rate the game, so that it can reach "new and popular"!
Finally, the game is overall great, nothing much to add other than the exploration incentive. Fantastic work!
Thanks for this amazing response beta hunter, we will definitely look into the bugs that you have mentioned and try to clear as many of them up as possible.
Also your ideas are very interesting and we will definitely consider this when looking at future updates
Again thank you for taking the time to make a full play through and the time to post your feedback.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make a video! As Nathan said you've given us some great points to look into and we'll definitely aim to improve the game further =)
Hey there, if you are referring to the falling code on the monitors, it is a sci-fi representation of how a real-time simulation might appear as code to someone who is in the real world :)
Ah sorry, I think this must be a small mistake with the script and the understanding of the situation, the key is part of one of the puzzles to escaping the firewall. to the player it is a simple key which as you might expect can unlock doors and other locked objects, however to link it with the hackers external view we decided that to his program it would appear the player has just found a password or code to a locked or encrypted folder. We will work on the clarity of this for the next update :) thanks
I see. I got the key part, and that it was the players perception of a key. But if you enter the firewall room, you will not be able to return and collect the key, what then?
Hi there, as far as we are concerened there shouldnt be anything stopping you from leaving the firewall room once entered, and in terms of the keys use. Well keys open locked things that's all we can say :). Also as there are other ways of bypassing the firewall it is not critical the the key is found.

No, I mean the one you get when you pick up the key in the dungeon
