The demo for PAGER was a wild ride! The minimalist 1-bit visuals and eerie atmosphere worked perfectly together to create an unsettling office environment.  I was constantly questioning what would happen next. Looking forward to seeing how the full game turns out!

thank you for playing!!

(+1)

Great demo!!! The person who ran away after opening the door scared me and the running animation was too funny.

thank you!! glad you liked it!

(+1)

Love the style, and the gameplay. Well done!  PS: Did you build your own shader or was it one already available?  Think I might get the full version of this, I loved it!

(+1)

thank you for playing!! glad you liked it! I used an existing addon and did some experiments to find the right colors and parameters to get this look.

(+1)

Bro for real, never die i NEED this types of games.

(+1)

I really love the new details that were added to the floors that were already featured in the prototype version! They really make them pop out more! And the new floors were absolutely crazy! Can't wait to see what the full version has to offer!

(+1)

glad you liked it!! thank you so much for playing!

I had already enjoyed this back when it was just a prototype so seeing that you continued working and improving it makes me super happy. I love how each level has an added layer to it in comparison to their first versions (like having that crazy spiral in the middle of the looping hallways). The butterflies also add a bit of intrigue since why the heck would there be butterflies in an office, so I'm even more confused than I was in the prototype (but I think being confused is kind of the point here). Really well done and keep up the good work! Your game is the first one on my video.

Bro I already accidently broke the game........ and why the screen went red when I pressed c?

i have it too, i think it is for creator for a good style or for a test

(+1)

Nice prototype! The visuals were pretty unique and the game played well on browser. I was anticipating a jump scare and was really glad there wasn't any! 

(+1)

(1 edit) (+1)

One question. How do you move on android?? I'm sure it's an amazing game, but I couldn't move forward or backwards. 

(2 edits)

you...don't. it's a web game specifically designed for PC's (though i'm not sure if bilge is gonna make an android port)

(+1)

why is it all black? 

same question

(+1)

just click C and it will be other color and if you want to make it black restart the game

(+1)

but realy : same question

(1 edit) (+2)

It was a fun demo! Still not sure if the game froze or it just ended though lol

(+4)

fun demo, though it froze on me after the room with the passthrough walls, not sure if that was just the end of the demo or if there's more. 

The spelling mistakes and grammar ironically added to the atmosphere, as they brought back memories of working for people (who have english as a first language) who put no effort into communication at all, LOL

(+1)

Good

(+1)

I really enjoy this game, the dooms have such cool mechanics, the visuals is simple but so well done, i would love to play a full game.

(+1)

it broke halfway through, but it was a fun game. It also said to jump but im in sure how :/

(+1)

like i said, its good but kinda confusing. the whole thing where you have to do things before completing the task is weird but still cool tbh

uh you don't do anything there, just walk cuz the game doesn't care either

THANK YOU <33333333333333333
