• Building a house
  
• The house is incredibly inconvenient
  
• The staff of the house (currently on leave) also think it's inconvenient
  
• No, seriously, why is the front hall connected to a closet, a storage room, a bathroom, and nothing else, what is wrong with this place
  
• I love it though
  
• All of the puzzles have clear, obvious, signposted clues. Many of those clues aren't clearly clues until you have a tool in hand or knowledge of what you're looking for. (The first time I found the redacted and then found out that more things redacted and I thought "hmm, maybe I can go not spoil the game for other people" and I was right and it led me to something cool and no, sorry, still no spoilers: FANTASTIC experience.)

• Interstitial cutscenes are repetitive and largely unskippable
  
• Not enough tools to manipulate the RNG for how RNG-heavy some of the progression clues are
  
• Seems to only be a few 7th Guest style puzzle minigames, I'd personally enjoy having more
  
• The charm of it being a walking simulator pales relatively quickly - I'd like a brisk-trot simulator at least

• Boy, the music sure is of the opinion that Creepy Things Are Happening all the time. Creepy things are not happening. It's fine.
  
• I kind of wish there were weird-shaped rooms. Playing an inventory management puzzle with the house layout sounds fun.
  
• This really makes me want to play Betrayal at House on the Hill again.

This is a fun puzzle-roguelike-architectural-travesties walking simulator. It's more-ish and satisfying. It could use some QoL tweaks, but honestly so could we all.

ten out of ten, would tweak the nose of my grandfather who is literally Time again by pausing mid-fight and just going away for a while

Fun little puzzle-platformer that reminds me of the Alwa games. There's only a handful of items but they all have various clever interactions. Plenty of timing-based puzzles but nothing I've run into that requires serious reflexes yet, having picked up one of the four Major MacGuffin items. The game is extremely forgiving about saving progress even through death, which is good, because it's also very, very easy to die - sometimes a lot! ...but it's also often the case that if you're dying a lot, there's an easier way to do what you're trying to do.

All in all: a delight. If you enjoyed the Alwa's games or Environmental Station Alpha, give this a shot.

Sixty minutes of delightful puzzling, with a few satisfying aha moments, no difficulty spikes, and a warm fuzzy feeling of accomplishment after finishing everything.

Relaxing and fun even as it's tense - the games are so short that the sometimes punishing difficulty of the higher challenge levels is never a frustration, and it's incredibly satisfying when cards and planning come together to let you slip through a dicey situation unscathed.

Blasting into a new timeline and getting absolutely bodied by the Vek never gets old.

Likely dog

Could this be a dog?

dog, O dog

Behold, dog!

A charming monster collector with metroidvania-esque exploration skills on a sidescrolling platformer with a turn-based battle system. It's fun! It's got good pixels! I like it.

RESCUE THE PUGS (or sacrifice them). COLLECT THE GOLD. DIE HORRIBLY ON SPIKES. REPEAT. I know it's possible to win, and maybe one day I will, but in the meantime, I'm perfectly happy accidentally honking a shopkeeper's nose by throwing a rock across the level and then dying in a convoluted way involving at least two arrow traps.
