Resignation
A downloadable game for Windows
RESIGNATION
Developed for the Feb 2022 Brackey's Game Jam theme of "It's Not Real".
NOTE: In game instructions say movement is WASD, but arrow keys work as well if that is easier for you.
Resignation takes on a concept of Mundane Horror, with the feel of dread and burnout manifesting into something more sinister within the mind. Follow our character as they navigate between the real world and another unseen nightmarish world, with only a few days left to escape. Combining 2D hand drawn graphics with original music and video cinematics we bring you a game about escaping an unseen pain.
If you like the music, the soundtrack is available here with a full expanded release coming soon, and documentary of the game development is on our YouTube Channel SometimesGameDevs.:)

I would play it if I could, but I can't get past the start screen. it doesn't matter what I try, it just loops - and yes I tried every key on my keyboard, I even tried my controller. no dice. Don't know why, it's not like I get an error message. shame tho, it looks like a nice game.
This games touched on the real horror in life, work. I really liked the hand drawn graphics. Good job!
Thank you! Watching your playthrough was very enlightening for us as to how to make some improvements, but we are happy that you liked the concepts and look of the game :)
I didn't play yet. However, this game's concept feels pretty relatable to me :(
NOTE: I will state my final thoughts in the answers of this comment after I have played it.
Sorry for late reply. The controls feels awkward to handle. Had a hard time to pass certain levels. The atmosphere is good.(It got me depressed lol) Overall, great work!
Thanks for the feedback. Im sorry the controls felt awkward for you. I forgot to put in the control screen that you could also use the arrow keys to move, I dont know if that would have felt more natural for you or not. And I am both sorry that it got you depressed but also glad to hear that we hit the intended vibe for the story lol. I hope you find yourself in a better place in life in the future where this concept is a little less relatable.
