Awesome experience! It's amazing how you tackled the theme!

Awesome, super creative game. It crushes your expectations the second you get the main gimmick and creates this awesome feeling of discovering something strange. Loved every second of it. Inspired me a ton.

The idea is quite creative and out-of-the-box! The atmosphere of the game was very mysterious.

BEST short game I've played.. LIKE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE

I had a lot of moments were the void is about to happen, but then I see what I needed to find, and then the screen cuts black, and I'm like "oh"


POTENTIAL SPOILER 😱

I haven't completed the game as far as I know, I've gotten to NEVERALONE but I think what the text is saying is that I just exit full-screen mode to escape the loop, and in the games description it says It is best experienced blindly and in Full Screen Mode! so I think that's it.
Correct me if I'm wrong so I can take another look and try to figure it out.

Developer

you beat it! I wanted to add more but I didn’t have anymore time :( and I thought leaving it this long was decent for the jam since there’s so many games. Thank you for playing! Your comment gave me a big smile :))

This was easily one of my favorite games from gmtk 2025 so far !! Great puzzle game, though it took me a bit after getting stuck to get to the end. The ending was pretty satisfying :D
