I am a git, and did not read your description on this page before playing. Had to figure out what button grabs stuff. Maybe a UI element at the top of the screen with the controls would help?
Once i got it running, I thought I had to grab all three objects instead of just one, and it was kind of frustrating seeing the other items disappear. I think some sort of indication that it's okay to turn around would have helped a lot. I also think the affected style of writing doesn't end up doing you any favors. I could see a bit of this being useful (say, in the item descriptions), but I think it was a bit overdone, which left me feeling a bit annoyed by it.
Thank you for the critique. I'll keep that in mind for any future projects, and when the game jam lets up, I'll see about adding indicators/instructions to make that more clear.
Every time I downloaded and tried to run your game I got errors specifically
Application folder: Downloads/TrialofKnavery-v2 There should be 'TrialOfKnavery_Data' folder next to the executable
I noticed it's because your data folder isnt named 'TrialOfKnavery_Data' but instead 'ECAug2019-jam_Data'. please fix and re upload so I can provide feedback
Friendly tip always run your exe before uploading to triple check for tests. QA is important esp in game dev
