Don't let them know!

Don't let them know!

Help the NPCs without letting them know that their world is not real.
Otherwise the simulation will crash!

Be aware that NPCs become suspicious if you act directly in front of them. Distract them with sounds and guide them with objects that you place into their world.

Beat the 5 simulation stages and post your time: (My PB: 2m22sec)

This game was made for the Brackeys Game Jam 2022.1
The theme was "It is not real"

Controls

• WASD / Arrow Keys : Moves Camera
• Left click : Enters spawn mode. When already in spawn mode, then places object
• Right click : Despawns any selected object except ground. Cancels spawn mode when active.
• Middle click / Scrollwheel click : Creates a sound alert to distract the NPCs temporarily
• Scrollwheel : Rotates to be spawned object when in spawn mode

Known Issues

• In case newly spawned objects rotate without touching the scrollwheel you can try deactivating "smooth scrolling" in your "Logitech Setpoint" software. The problem was reported with a "Logitech MX Vertical" mouse
• There are some minor bugs! I know... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But feel free to report them and I will try fix them after the GameJam rating period has finished.
