On Your Hands

On Your Hands is a video game made by a developer, it has gameplay, graphics, sound, and maybe even a UI. It's also good and I think you should play it. It made my brain feel really smart when I solved good puzzles and also made it a little spooked, but I'm a brave person and only screamed like twice (once per episode).

great puzzle game. sucks im stupid

After playing through the game from start to finish, I can definitely say that On Your Hands is a solid puzzle game with horror elements. - The gameplay was good. Puzzles gradually became more complex at a consistent rate, and all the magic was unique and fun to use. I did have a few issues with the 3D platforming (particularly on Map 13), but they didn't affect most of the puzzles. - All of the art was very well done. The environments are fleshed out with an abundance of minor details, levels are uniquely structured and colored, and there's a good amount of environmental storytelling within each level. - I generally enjoyed the writing and world-building. Exposition and details were given at a consistent rate, and I never felt overwhelmed by any of it. - I greatly enjoyed the audio mixing, music, ambiance, voice acting, and effects throughout the whole game. - There were a few bugs and softlocks, but they aren't too bad since the checkpoints are fairly generous and the bugs aren't completely game-breaking. - Accessibility options are a huge plus. Overall, I had a great time playing through this game. The whole dev team clearly put a lot of love into this game, and they should all be very proud.

The game gave me a similar feeling to Portal (without the quirky writing) with an alien horror theme. They use the main mechanic in such interesting ways. It's got great music, atmosphere, art, and voice acting. The ending hit too. Can't recommend enough, especially for such a small team. If it's too much, wait for a sale because I'm still thinkin about it a couple years later.

Works great in VR with UEVR. An excellent game that surely deserves much more attention. The Portal-like puzzles are always clever, balanced and there are many great mechanics that manages to keep the game fresh and interesting (and pretty long, it took me more than 15 hours to finish it). Fantastic art and atmosphere too, exploring the alien planet and its very diverse locations is fun and the horror elements keep you on your toes while you slowly figure out both the mystery behind the planet and what happened between the two protagonists.

tl:dr - Another World x Portal by way of A Story About My Uncle Excellent and fresh as, entirely worth your time

Too scary for me to play but it's so good! I recommend it very much.
