I was somewhat expecting a little bit more, considering all choices lead to the same outcome and the game is extremely short, probably around less than 5 minutes long. It could also be a bug but the game ends right after the "Would I even notice" text appears. Though it is an experience that resonated with me and think it is a concept that can be explored further. I did notice some bugs/typos in the game, including a random E in the text and the English and French preferences being mixed. I will attach all the files regarding this. Not hating just some criticism and congrats on your first game Alice <3 I downloaded version 1.1 btw on Mac, still shows version 1.0 tho. Also, I felt like I could make out some words at the beginning of the game, the whispers sounded like some words in spanish which made it a bit goofy lol.
Thank you so much for taking the time to play it and write such detailed feedback. I really appreciate the criticism, especially since this was my first game.
You're right about the length and the choices. I wanted to experiment with the idea and atmosphere, but I can see now that the game is probably too short for the choices to have much impact. I'll keep that in mind for my next project.
And yes, the game ending right after "Would I even notice" is intentional, although I understand why it might feel like a bug. I probably should have made the ending a bit clearer.
Thank you for pointing out the bugs and typos too. The language preferences getting mixed up is definitely a bug, and I'll look into the other issues you mentioned as well. I also didn't notice the Spanish-sounding whispers, so that's honestly pretty funny. I'll have to listen to them again. lol
And thanks for letting me know about the version number on Mac. I'll check that too.
I'm really glad that, despite the flaws, the experience resonated with you. That's honestly one of the things I wanted most with this project. Thanks again for playing Axiom and for the kind words! <3
It´s a good short psychological horror project, making a great use of tension, introspective i would dare to say. Very nice representation of anxiety and alienation.
Thank you so much! I’m really glad the atmosphere and the themes of anxiety and alienation came through. This is my first psychological horror project, so your feedback means a lot to me. I’ll definitely keep going and try to improve with each project!
