good potential, too bad the demo is very short, also i suggest lettign the player control the movement of the android via the keyboard (arrows) and adding shortcut for actions
I really want more games that explore the narrative concept of androids in more of an emotional way and I think what you got here can really become that. Great job polishing it up and please, PLEASE turn this into a full game. And it to be the best it can be even if I have to wait.
Congrats on the demo, it's a very interesting concept, there is a lot of potential.
I have one suggestion, maybe you could use keys to select the actions, using the mouse kinda take you away of the game, using just a key would be easier and faster, and the player wouldn't have to think about where he needs to press.
Looks very interesting, love the visuals and audio. But I hope there will be a better mechanism to perform actions than choosing from a menu, for example keyboard shortcuts. Looking forward to the full game!
For few minutes, this demo brought me somewhere else, somewhere new but that felt weirdly familiar. I think the best games are about a feeling, so I really enjoyed this one.
Very cool concept. Games where you manage the emotional state of the player character are a pretty rare, so if you manage keep it this elegant in the full game then I can easily see this idea being very copied very fast. I can't wait to see where you take it.
I tried both versions, this and Education of an Android. The improvements are amazing! I liked the wasd movement but mouse-movement is easier, not to mention having the commands near the heart was a cleaner use of space. The graphics here are amazing; in fact the movement cycle is very fluid. I like the synthetic heart image from Education but the health bar system here is a snap to grasp. I encountered a small bug here when I accidentally contemplated an object twice. This led to a small glitch where the screen kept flashing and making noise like it was still loading Joy. I was able to keep playing but instead of contemplating the other setting Joy to Null, it went straight to Sadness. Good luck with development of this game! It's a wonderful idea and the demo is tantalising.
Thank you very much! I prefer wasd movement too. I plan to change with platformer commands and a unique "E" button for interactions, Limbo like, in order to integrate more actions perhaps.

I don't know why but the Mac version of this game doesn't work )^:
I'm really sad... I loved the original and wanted to play this one too!

Cool demo, has a lot of potential, got me intrested. I dig the visuals, and sound!
Really enjoyed this demo! I love the concept and would love to play an expanded version! I also really like the visuals and the sound effects.
The demo was pretty cool, would be interested in playing the final product!

I really enjoyed the demo - I can't wait to see what an expanded game looks like!
I did a video on the game, with some more thoughts, if anyone wants to watch:
Very interesting and funny video, thank you !
Thanks Romain, that's great to hear. I would love to do a longer let's play of this game (if/when it is completed) if that's ok?
Hello, friends! Nice work :) How to contact you by email or maybe on FaceBook?
Very interesting and fun game! I love the element of requiring a certain emotion to open the doors. Can't wait for the rest of it!

I really appreciate, that's exactly my goal as an artist.
I really enjoyed this demo. It has alot of artistic apeal and I enjoyed the concept of being a robot that has a heart. Keep up the good work!

Very nice comment. Thank you very much. This stage of the demo is just the beginning, a way to introduce the concept.
