I can't find the game in the downloaded folder. Can someone please help?
Hi! Were you able to figure it out? The Windows version has a Hypnos.exe file once you unzip it, and the Mac version is just the Hypnos.app file. Hope you enjoy it!
I loved this game, because the puzzles were quite challenging and you also managed to implement a real "Myst"-esque atmosphere, especially thanks to the nearly mesmerizing background music. Thank you so much for your work! :) Gladly I recommended your jam entry in a little article on our blog as well as I uploaded a quick gameplay video. <3
Best wishes,
Sebastian
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I love the gameplay video you put together. Thanks so much for playing!
<3 You're very welcome, Ben. I'm glad to see that we were able to make you happy with our work! :) Keep it up!
the rocks-in-water puzzle and its map don't line up
Make sure you're staying oriented to the right rocks -- it's really easy to mix them up in some places. :) Thanks for playing!!
I've just completed that part, turned out that what I took to be a fully centered title in the titlebar in windowed mode, (which I used as an orientation aid) was only semi-centered.
I'm stuck on the puzzle that's "inside", any help?
Did you find the note inside? Watch the monitor as you turn the last dial. Thanks for playing! 🙂
