@AI Im sorry :(

You have ruined my night.
Trururu  [author] 6 Apr, 2024 @ 9:32pm 
ahh i didnt see any notifications for these comments sorry.
@awoozy. Its good the game behaved for you! im glad you enjoyed it!

@synsomniack. yeah i couldnt get that to work smoothly as the trigger point tries to make the skull invisible while in the inventory so walking out of the trigger point drops the skull but as long as you dont walk back into the trigger and its in your inventory when you turn the light back on then it should work fine. but i can see that being more of an issue in MP with two people moving around the room
Synsomniack 1 Apr, 2024 @ 12:05pm 
Quick tip if you're running into a problem with multiplayer on the X marks the spot key ... Trying to step out of the X seems to drop the skull, and it get's very glitchy. We were able to get around this by kind of juggling the skull to get it where we wanted it, then turning the light back on caused it to lock in place where we wanted it.

Really well done. It was challenging and some of the puzzles took me (quite) awhile to figure out but you provided enough clues to get to the right solutions.
Thankfully I didn't have any glitches that other people have described.
Nice work!

@WellhungCHEEKs Thank you for playing! The red room just refuses to work no matter how i change it. i might just have to add a button into the room after some time. But im glad you enjoyed the rest!
WellhungCHEEKs 9 Mar, 2024 @ 11:15pm 
Great level with some really great references to the movies.
Only issue is with multiplayer on the candle room, it doesn't seem to count down.
Solved by getting the answer from that room and restarting, then not entering that room and using the solution from our first time around.
Thanks @Trururu for a fun little room :)
Trururu  [author] 6 Mar, 2024 @ 9:45pm 
@Dimitri Steels Ah sorry there were issues Did you kill them or yourself with the gun and get to the red room? the goal is not to "win" the roulette. Killing them will get you a note which should hopefully suggest doing it again. killing yourself will teleport you to the red room and continue the puzzle
Louis Dubois 6 Mar, 2024 @ 10:58am 
impossible to get the third key.I pass through all the challenges.. and the gun is not giving me the last key to finish
Trururu  [author] 5 Mar, 2024 @ 9:46pm 
@stebakov. thank you! im glad you managed to get through it and the fire room wasnt cursed this time.
Every time that number puzzle issue comes up i look at it again and remain confused as to how it could go wrong. and yet it does.
I was thinking of putting together a multiplayer level but all these bugs exclusively in multiplayer have put a stop to that whole idea. :bbtcat:
Stebakov 5 Mar, 2024 @ 2:39pm 
Hello, сool map, well done. We went through completely together, we had a problem in the room with cards, the red room. There was a code 8947 circled on the poles, it didn’t work, but purely by chance 8447 worked. There were two fours, I don’t know what this is connected with.
Trururu  [author] 2 Mar, 2024 @ 2:41am 
@gina2909 ahh im sorry. im not sure what would even cause random teleporting. most of my teleports are linked to buttons so i dont even know where to start troubleshooting that one. and the not being able to leave the fire room thing is an ongoing saga. it always works for me when testing and changing it then it just doesnt work for anyone else. Maybe you can try again in single player but multiplayer bugs im really struggling to fix sorry
Gina2909 2 Mar, 2024 @ 2:08am 
We acutally teleported in almost every room to another without even touching something.
We stopped playing the map after we somehow teleported into the fire room again, because we could'nt get out of there anymore.

The help was not helpful for us, because there were things mentioned which we never saw. Possibly because of the random teleports.
So the help menu just told us about all the stuff we missed :SadGolfball:
Trururu  [author] 1 Mar, 2024 @ 1:27pm 
@gina2909 ahh. The map is meant for single player and there are weird bugs that happen only in MP. Im trying to fix them though. Why was the help not helpful and what room was the random teleport?
Gina2909 1 Mar, 2024 @ 10:02am 
Using "help" was actually no help at all. We somehow just ported from one room to another, without even beeing able to do the things that were mentioned under help :sadMio:
Trururu  [author] 29 Feb, 2024 @ 10:52pm 
@mxastro not really any jumpscares in this one, its not really the mood i was aiming for
MxAstro 29 Feb, 2024 @ 10:34pm 
Want to try! Any jumpscares??
Trururu  [author] 28 Feb, 2024 @ 9:26pm 
@hand is trapped no, thank you! Im glad you enjoyed it, and im glad the game behaved!
Trururu  [author] 28 Feb, 2024 @ 9:25pm 
@cheekyskrublord Thank you! im sorry the game is bugging in the fire room. ill have to ask for help on how to fix this as i seem to not be able to
handistrapped 28 Feb, 2024 @ 8:48pm 
Best level ive ever played, fantastic homage to saw. thank you!!
CheekySkrubLord 28 Feb, 2024 @ 1:33pm 
Fun level however fire room completely bugged out, had to restart twice
Trururu  [author] 27 Feb, 2024 @ 8:35pm 
@loz Ive added you to try talk it through i wanted to ask a couple of questions. Im not sure if the correct answers are in the hints, i should check to update it. The game is inteded for single player so im unsure if multiplayer in that room could have issues but other people have mentioned this is a spot that has trouble with multiple people. The only interactable item is the candle which gives you a bit more vision(as though you picked it up and are carrying it) the room works with various trigger points around the room, you walk into one then a bit later later the next one unlocks then 7 seconds later if you walk into it the room will catch on fire and you will be teleported out
Ioz 27 Feb, 2024 @ 8:18pm 
@trururu Keep gettting stuck in the tv with the numbers on the wall. there seems to be nothing to interact with except the candle and nothing happens after grabbing it. we found the word, mask and eye, but cant get out of the room. not sure if its not working or we are missing something
Trururu  [author] 27 Feb, 2024 @ 10:27am 
@TheGingerVixen88 I believe its in the hints unless the hints are broken again. youre doing the smart thinking for a dumb puzzle. you just need *your* hand to make blackjack which is usually a jack and an ace, which are in the room somewhere
TheGingerVixen88 27 Feb, 2024 @ 9:18am 
Im confused on the blackjack part. two aces can either be a 2 or a 12, so you'd either need a card combo of 18 or 9 to get 21. I've tried all the card combos I can think of get to 21. Am I missing something obvious?
Trururu  [author] 26 Feb, 2024 @ 1:39am 
@beef thank you! I'll have a think of what i can change to make that puzzle a bit more readable
Beef 26 Feb, 2024 @ 1:04am 
Awesome room. I had trouble figuring out which spot the morse code was referring to in the red room, and tried a bunch of wrong codes until I realized spot "A" was where you stand to see the circled letters. Everything else was intuitive.
Trururu  [author] 25 Feb, 2024 @ 9:49pm 
@nanuka thank you! With relation to the gun puzzle Im sorry it was a bit confusing i didnt make it clear there was a peek option which ive added to the note after surviving roulette
This hint issue shouldnt happen as the only trigger points are when you leave the corner and the very end, Ive changed it to have no trigger points but im not sure why it was happening.
And the red room one i dont understand either. on the desk is a square where youre supposed to place the deck so im not sure why it doesnt show up for you. but thank you for the feedback ill change a few things
Nanuka 25 Feb, 2024 @ 10:19am 
okay, completed the whole map, got super stuck on the gun puzzle, main issue I had was I ended up with the wrong choice, read the note, figured out what you wanted but for the life of me couldn't get it right, must have played it 50 or so times before I gave it a break, overall a pretty good map with a few small bugs

Clues: As people have said, the clues seem to skip right to the end once you've done the TV, maybe just put them all in without any trigger

Red Room: Took me a solid 10 minutes to place the deck, not a bug exactly, but I kind of guessed what you wanted early, just couldn't find the spot, maybe put some way to highlight where the deck goes?
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 9:35pm 
also added new hints and some QOL improvements in red room to hopefully help with this
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 9:34pm 
@edward Thats ok! The game is meant for single player not multiplayer so i have no clue what issues in my level that could create. Once you open the drawers there should be a morse sheet for letters to get another position to stand and get a new code. you get this letter from the morse flashing light which you then put into the morse table again to progress
Edward 24 Feb, 2024 @ 8:29pm 
we got to the russian roulette part and can't figure it out even with clues. we're able to open drawers, found cards, but what?! idk...not my favorite. we gave up.
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 2:07pm 
@tauler hopefully fixed this but i never had any luck with having things in drawers :(
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 1:51pm 
@leben thank you! yeah you cant normally peek or skip in roulette but i needed a way for the player to choose the outcome which makes it all a bit strange. I tried to set it up so you cant die on the first shot and it was sort of intended to be done once or twice. And the Peek option is a zoomable item so was never sure how to tie functions to that. But i think youre right, adding someone on the other side might help
Tauler 24 Feb, 2024 @ 7:32am 
piece of paper falls through the drawers in the red room
Leben 24 Feb, 2024 @ 7:17am 
Having played through again, my suggestions to make it clearer on the gun part, is to make it more obvious you're playing with someone else and that they're firing the gun on their turn. Maybe a shadowy figure or whatever and have the gun point sideways on their turn. When the gun is pointed from yourself at them it suggests you're firing it. I've never known a roulette you can pass on too so I was just a bit confused without peeking, and there's no reason to suggest you can or should do this so maybe something to help with that. Just for additional flavour, maybe there could also be a different outcome like a different message if you don't peek and still "win"? That'd be cool.

No criticisms though, thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to see what else you do!
Leben 24 Feb, 2024 @ 6:55am 
That was amazing, especially for a first room! Loved all the little details and the end animation.

Little confused with the red room - I got there by accident without really understanding the game and I looked at the walkthrough to point me in the right direction with the circled A, circled numbers but this seems obvious in hindsight. No bugs for me but everything else made sense so I only did the expected actions.
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 4:13am 
@br0ther_bear By win the goal in this one is to shoot yourself and get to the red room, if you shoot them then you spawn back in the room with a note that (i hoped) would suggest to do the gun again to get the other result
br0ther_bear 24 Feb, 2024 @ 4:08am 
@Trururu
I got the key from completing the TV puzzles, then the key from the combination in the main room. I then played the gun game/puzzle and "won" that. When I returned to the main room, I did not find a 3rd key. I found the note next to the revolver, but no key.
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:58am 
@traenrek. I had a wrong slot setting for the cards, and the slots disabled after you successfully inserted the correct card. This bug has been fixed
Traenrek 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:43am 
Also found a gamebreaking bug. Putting cards in the hand can glitch it out so you cant put any more cards in the hand so you cant progress.
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:35am 
@Traenrek ah my walkthrough must have messed up when trying to fix it. does my spoiler text help?
Traenrek 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:34am 
@Trururu the walkthrough just shows Finale and something about poop.
Traenrek 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:32am 
@Vannaluv same here. stuck in the same part, any hints anyone?
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:16am 
@Vannaluv Did you check the hints? If they arent clear i can fix them There should be a flashing light you can use the morse sheet with which you will get a letter for a new direction to look at the poles in the corner from to get a new 4 digit code to unlock the last drawer
Trururu  [author] 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:13am 
@br0ther_bear hi yeah i tried to put a box over the TV to make it unselectable after completing it but if you get close enough you still can click it so thats fixed. And i made the hints last til a later point. but can you please elaborate on the Gun one. Did you complete the red room. If so the key should spawn on the floor next to the gun. If it did not can you please tell me the order you completed the 3 puzzle areas. (Gun, TV and Main Room)
