My first complete fangame, made in ~2 months.

I like tier lists, so if you want to make a chart for the rooms in the game here you go (spoilers for all the rooms obviously): https://tiermaker.com/create/i-wanna-be-the-caretaker-621666

A well made carefully crafted game with a gloomy intoxicating theme. I really enjoyed the game and atmosphere. The quality of the game was over the top so I give it a 10/10. Would recommend.

For the creators first fangame, this game is very, very good. I'll leave it to the other reviewers to talk about the origins of the music, as I mainly want to focus on the execution of the game itself.

The gameplay and gimmicks are overall fun, and I found the puzzles satisfying to solve, however some gimmicks can require you to wait out long cycles before you can try a part of the screen again. I also experienced some weird bugs with how moving platforms behaved, and I would often slide off them without pressing any movement keys.

For me, the biggest letdown I experienced was the atmosphere and the visuals, combined with the music of course. I felt like there was a lot of wasted potential to convey the mental deterioration that the albums portray. The visuals of each stage don't feel like they are deteriorating, instead, it feels like you get a new theme with each stage. This problem is especially prevalent in stage 5, where the tileset and colors feel very, very out of place, especially compared to the direction the stage prior was taking with its visuals.

Conclusion: Good gameplay, fun puzzles, some mildly annoying stuff, decent visuals, good music. Would recommend.

This fangame in concept is just so cool, but even beyond that the way it executes upon the ideas laid out by premise is just awesome, the transition the game takes becomes unnerving and evocative as you see a playable depiction of one of the worst things that can happen to a human being. In doing so the player gets introduced to some really awesome gimmicks which, especially in the final stage, bounce off each other so well and make for some really solid platforming, all while being a very manageable difficulty. No part of the game feels compromised at any point, it's easy, fun, and artistic. This game should definitely should be something you check out.

Офигенная игра! Очень жаль, что для часика потрясного експириенса тебе пришлось потратить 2 месяца... Клевая идея с глазами и последний уровень сильно меня напугал. Но когда я увидел концовку, то страх пропал и сразу мурашки побежали) На данный период для меня это лучший фанмейд, который я только видел! Очень креативно и необычно. +1 пройденная игра в копилочку (7/1000)
