A fantastic mix of 2D and 3D nightmares with the pinch of creepy voice over and phenomenally built environment - solid 10/10 demo! 

When you are trying to showcase a game for people to play later, you want your main demonstration to be short, straight to the point and explaining the game's main mechanics - this did all that and even more. The atmosphere is so visceral, dim and absolutely bonkers creepy. The voice over (I hope it is not AI) was great, the optimization was well handled and overall I enjoyed my experience with this. Hope to see the full game very soon. 

Best of luck with this. Cheers!

Thanks bro ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ I'm really glad you liked the game, and it gave me a lot of motivation to complete it. Fortunately, the voice isn't AI ๐Ÿ˜ I tried to get help from a voice actor for the voices.

Do you trust the voice behind the door?

Much like Tormenture, the 'game-within-a-game' mechanic is on full throttle here, where you play as a young child who wakes up in the basement of an amusement club and has to retrieve items in the 'game world' and bring them to...something...in order to gain powers and advance in the 'Taskelvania' 2D platformer world. 

I enjoyed the aesthetic and the puzzle elements involved in this demo, especially the VO quality of the 'entity' in the painting. I'm just not that great at platformers! As any great demo should, this left me wanting more, so can't wait for the full release!

Thanks๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™ It's my pride that you enjoyed the game. Stay tuned for more events in the full version! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ”ฅ
