Unsettled by a strange call on the intercom, Carl hastily takes the elevator down. When the doors open, he realizes he is not where he should be. An uncanny, strange yet familiar place lies before him.

Perturbé par un étrange appel à l'interphone, Carl se hâte vers l'ascenseur pour descendre. Lorsque les portes s'ouvrent, il réalise qu'il n'est pas là où il devrait être. Un endroit étrange, dérangeant et pourtant familier se trouve devant lui.

What I liked

- Beautiful, interesting and mysterious level design, I liked the overall variety, none of them felt exactly the same or overstayed their welcome which is rare in the kind of games

- Decent short story

- Graphics look pretty good

- Gameplay, while super simple, worked well

What could be improved

- Not much honestly, it was a decent game, I just wish it was a bit longer but since it's free, I can't complain too much

Here's my full gameplay :

[ITA] Storia molto interessante incentrata sulla libertà di scelta, sulla vita e la morte. Un'esperienza horrorifica e liminale allo stesso tempo.
[ENG] Very intriguing story about the freedom of choice to live or not. A unique horror/liminal experience.

Very well done for a free game. It's just a short walking sim that depends on heavy atmosphere and audio to set it's mood and tell it's tragic story of an event in the player character's past that changed his life and left him a haunted man. Visuals are well done, the audio is fantastic. It's only about 15-20 minutes long but it does it's job wonderfully in that amount of time.

A very good liminal space game , nice work :)

Full Play NO Commentary

I love the atmosphere! Not knowing what can come around each corner. To top it all of the gnomes were the cherry on top!

Totally Loved The Game, The Art Style, The Music And The Thought Provoking & Highly Interpretative Concept Story. 

Here's My Take On It. I Wonder What Are The Authors Thoughts On My Interpretation.

I'm a Korean gamer who visited your booth at BIC Festival. If you remember, I'm the guy who insisted that I'd play at home. Partially because I wanted to get all the stickers (which means I had no much time), and partially because I wanted a better experience for this game. Downloading now, and keeping my promise. Glad that I found your game at BIC.

I had to search for your business card in my bag because the BIC website didn't have your itch.io link. Usually I would throw the whole bag into my treasure box until I re-open it for recalling good memories. And I had to struggle with the password manager I recently changed to sign in to my itch.io account. Which means I was pretty impressed by your game. Do I sound too egocentric? Never mind. I'll just try the game tomorrow, tomorrow because it's past midnight here.
