Minor bug? the line"now on your feet drone" doesn't play the correct audio file. Some of Darkwitt's lines also get cut on the last word.

oh i managed to cause a crash by stopping intrusions but not balance the waves lol


Also minor complaint, i found that one of the visual anomalies behind the left screen machine (appears as 2 orange eyes?) can be too subtle and i think i missed it once or twice.

The game looks good with and pretty cool idea with a simons says colour panel. As for the switch leaves to get the right brainwave. i do find that part confusing. its trying to get the right switch in the right direction. with you flipping two switches at once. making the game tricky and a pain. i think the wave length is good, but i think it be better for the switch on the middle left to power the waves, press the bottons and use a type of middle lever, up to adjust the power, down to decrease the power. cos its VERY EASY to get that mess up. when you find out. its already too late and you loose. i feel that would be a change. keeping that as a separete thing

It's a really cool idea and a unique take on the FNaF gameplay style and there was a decent bit of work put into this but...

 
First off: the game was rather very slow to the point it became boring and was taking way too long. It's good that it was going slow at the start so there was time to adjust, but maybe there could be a "switch" to speed up the process?

Secondly: why not keep the labels for the controls or at least have an option to see them? It became difficult to remember what was what and I almost made a couple of mistakes because of it.

Finally and most importantly: my game crashed... I worked kinda hard to get to the end, obeyed all of the clients requests, just for it to crash shortly after taking a look at the black goo client. 

It really isn't bad and has good elements, but needs a lot of refining.

Oh yeah, also the red looks more like an orange and a lot of the changes were really subtl.

Yeah this game reminds me that I am color weak. It's been a long time since I felt frustrated because of my color weakness.

Okay, so I figured out how to use the mouse wheel function, and that removed a lot of my frustration when trying to deal with the high-speed incursions at the end of the game, since it allowed me to "rewind" time.

I finally unlocked ending number one, though it seemed some of the voice dialogue didn't fit the written dialogue. And one or two places of the written dialogue conflicted as well, since one part ordered the drone to kneel and then the dialogue wrote that the drone in the ending was rising instead. I won't spoil the ending for those who are also playing, but I thought I should note those minor issues that I discovered when seeing ending 1. If you're looking for a proofreader to double check things matching with the vocals so it all lines up, I don't mind helping out, provided I don't have to edit anything that's graphic.

Surprisingly pretty fun and I enjoyed going through it ^^

Tried to play this game, but I seem to have a game-breaking bug. I've yet to hear any sound incursions. They're almost certainly happening because the game over seems to happen randomly and without visual intrusions active. The attempt that made it the farthest had me randomly pulling the auditory stabilizer, which managed to pull me a decent way past the first client request.

The concept is neat and it's a good level of challenge, but it's unfortunately unplayable for me because of this glitch.

(+2)

how do i get the transformation started im having issues with that

(+1)

any one know to start the transformation i cqnt seem to get it sorted

Not sure!  The tf should be happening in front of you, though he goes through a sequence of hypnosis first.

i cant do it i always get caught

may i ask how do you get all of the endings

Are there any hints towards the 4th ending? I think I tried a few things already but always seem to get ending 2 or 3

So, is this game a horror game, having any jumpscares?

So something that I'm noticing but I'm not sure if it's bugs per se, is the maintaining/adjusting waves seems optional.  I've yet to make it to the end, due to skill issue, but it seems that you can progress the game without needing to make adjustments to the alpha, beta, etc waves.  I'm sure that the ending will vary based on if you do as the client asks or not, but just wanted to point out that it doesn't seem to effect my progress from what I can tell so far.  (Maybe it effects the end and I'm just unfortunate to not have made it yet)

On that note, how many endings are there currently?

(-3)

What are the chances of getting an Android version, or is that in the "if it's well-liked enough" category?

Found an exception at the last part of the protocol, while the client was doing a request. Even attempting a rollback triggers it still:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Also, I'm on win 11, not sure why the program is identifying it as windows 8

That one I couldn't tell you, but I did fix the error that you were getting!

Thanks alot! :)
