If it had inverted mouse option I would've donated. The frustration of seeing a hole above/below me and trying to patch it by looking the opposite direction every single time is apparently more frustrating than the devs can understand. it ruins the experience and is probably why the majority of games include it option. The usual thing would be to turn the game on, try to look around, get a little dizzy, look for invert, if there is an option continue the game. if not uninstall game and move on.
so i feel like i should start saying something to let people know that most people dont feel like asking for an invert option. sooo... please include an invert option before releasing a game please?
I really enjoyed this one. The twist in the end got me at first, but after thinking more into everything that we did it all made sense to me and made me apricate this more. Thank you for making this, I can't wait to see what you guys make next
Played through this game the other day and I have to say it's got plenty of character, a really cool, yet simple premise and a really twisted ending that I didn't see coming!
I love the constant escalation as we move through the days, I'm very entranced by the visuals and environments. I agree with other comments; the story, the writing, the experience makes you want soo much more. Yet I think it's perfect as-is, too. The posters are great by the way! There is so much the environment can tell you from the very beginning. :)
Sorry I suck in english but thanks a lot for making horror games like that, I'm sensitive but fascinated by these worlds and games like Descending, without jumpscares really allow me to experience horror games, thank you.
Great game. Really great atmosphere that made the game scary. No cheap jump scares or something like that. Pretty big plot twist, and overall a gud experience :3
YOOO i loved this game you guys did amazing honestly forget what everyones been saying this has been one of my favorite games of this year bro truly thank you for this
My man Leth i have just one question can we get some more games like this, pretty please, cause oh my god i love this style of resource management and this game scratched an itch in gaming i didn't even know i needed, the unsettling atmosphere, the subtle lore that things aren't what they truly are and my god the reveal at the end? you need to make some sort of tie in sequel or just more games like this, Keep up the awesome work man! probs gonna show this to my Mates next time they're over.
Had a lot of fun playing this game, was easy to play and the mechanics were solid. Just wish the tension was built a little bit stronger because it wasn’t fully horror filled like I hoped it be. Definitely worth a play through!
This was a lot of fun, I did not expect that twist to occur with the ending! Great job, loved the tension and balancing act of all the stuff to keep an eye on. This was a blast, hope you keep on making games!
I made a Short to go along with my playthrough. I'm new to this, but I wanted to create interest in my video and the game, but I also didnt want to give anything away. I hope it's alright.
I LOVED this so much. The managing of information and the creepy living space. The isolation and disconnection from the surface. This is exactly what kind of games I come looking for on the Itch.io site!! <3 <3
EDIT: The notes gave you just enough info to piece together what is REALLY happening, but without spoiling it!
It's an amazing game! Thank you for your work! I really love how you introduce complex stuff at the beginning, first there is nothing to worry about, but later it becomes very tense. Also, I love the lore, and the ending... Well, I am very grateful I chose to go in blind
Devs yous have made a special little indie game, it has everything to be a great game including a really interesting story and gameplay loop, amazing sound design and grungy stylistic visuals. It's not scary but has a really heavy atmosphere. It also reminds me of some indie greats....
* SOFT SPOILER IN READ MORE*
It feels like Iron Lung but you're a driller, if you know what I mean ;)
Really great game! Loved the atmosphere, the increasing pressure of the workplace, a solid length for a short horror game with a satisfying ending. Definite recommend and follow.

Loved the ending
This game was not what I expected but I really enjoyed playing it!
It was the most interesting game!
I was moved by the straightforward representation of workers, inhuman working conditions and alienation in a capitalist dystopia!
I can only read Japanese, so I used machine translation software to play the game.
this is a total masterpiece the twist left me speechless 10/10 game
Very challenging if you're unofficially dyslexic HA. My brain has leveled up thanks to this multitask challenge. Keep it up!

Amazing game really enjoyed it from start to finish the ending was great can't wait to play more of your games
Played your game for a video. I enjoyed the gameplay of managing the drills and the atmosphere is great.
also I didn't expect the twistMan... This game is fire!!! It's one of the best stories in game industry. Srsly :D
holly shit, the game is sick and if you're thinking about playing DO NOT LOOK AT THE COMMENTS, just scroll back up and just download it, its free
that twist was insane
Great game. Really great atmosphere that made the game scary. No cheap jump scares or something like that. Pretty big plot twist, and overall a gud experience :3
So refreshing to play a horror game that doesn't just repeat tired tropes and actually knows how to build suspense. Super chilling.
Found a bug - it's possible to collect the notes before opening the 4-digit combination lock on the bedroom by clicking around
Also, the panel seems to be mirrored but not all indicators match
Keep up the good work!
Amazing game and even more amazing story with even more amazing ending!
first itch game iv ever played and it was amazing love the game
Can we please get a sequel to this game or just something in this world. I really liked the esoteric soviet propaganda vibe
My man Leth i have just one question can we get some more games like this, pretty please, cause oh my god i love this style of resource management and this game scratched an itch in gaming i didn't even know i needed, the unsettling atmosphere, the subtle lore that things aren't what they truly are and my god the reveal at the end? you need to make some sort of tie in sequel or just more games like this, Keep up the awesome work man! probs gonna show this to my Mates next time they're over.
