Game mechanic is so interesting.I want whole game with it.

I just wanted to put my thoughts before finishing the game :>
So i loved it a lot. it was kind of scary in general not knowing where I was. when the match went out I was like witch direction :0

Fantastic short horror game, it's amazing how unsettling an atmosphere you could create with such a simple setting. The match mechanic was really effective at making me feel disoriented, there were actually points where I was wondering if I'd been teleported somewhere or just turned around in the dark. Really enjoyed playing this. 

sensitivity 100000000 lol

Good, very good

Loved it! :)

Interesting game, enjoyed it!

tip for morse code, get an audio program like audacity, record the morse code and set it to spectrogram, then you can literally see the dots and dashes

The morse code says: "Join them or LEAVE."

just played and I think I got the morse code

is it: .--- --- .. -. / - .... . -- / --- .-. / .-.. . .- ...- . --..-- / -.-- --- ..- .-. / -.-. .... --- .. -.-. .  .-.-.-

Yes!

Translation:

JOIN THEM OR LEAVE, YOUR CHOICE.

Very cryptic and uniquely designed! 
I did enjoy playing this. Compare to the "Core", this was definitely an easy one, yet I was truly fascinated by the complexity of the game and played it many times in hopes of finding out the truth about the place. Unfortunately, I was not able to translate the code, but I do hope that it was not another ending, because this game needs a second ending. 
Great Job, Mike! 

Thanks :) This game doesn't have that much content, since it was made in under 72 hours and because of that has only 1 ending, but the only thing that I haven't seen a single person figure out yet is translating the code.

I think the problem here isn't translating the morse code, it's transcripting it. I've tried for about 10 minutes or so and i can't translate it because of how fast it goes.

its definitely slow enough to be transcribed

Thank you for commenting on my video! Appreciated it <3

Hey, I should be thanking you. I love it when people play what I make, and it feels even more special when they decide to edit and publish a video featuring it. All the best to you.
