The Crete Escape (Game Jam)
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Adventure Ahead! Jazz musician Greta Goodnight plans herself a well-deserved vacation to the Greek island of Crete. Unfamiliar with its history and culture, a whole new world opens up to her, then swallows her whole as her peaceful vacation turns into an adventure from which there might be no escape!
In The Crete Escape, play as Greta Goodnight, a 40-something Jazz musician in dire need of the sun, wine and vacation in this hand-drawn point-and-click puzzle adventure game. Navigate through the strange lands of Crete, Greece, where things are not always as they seem.

This looks very nice, and it provided a fun 30 minutes or so. Some of the items were a bit of a pixel hunt, but the characters were entertaining. Good game!
Thank you for playing, and we are glad you had some fun with it. I agree some things took more searching than others, but we really went to the wire making this, another week of polishing and some more play testers, and we could have ironed out some of the winkles.
This is beautiful! I love ancient History, so it's a nice surprise for me. The graphics are perfect for such a tight schedule. Some lines are a bit too long but overall everything looks good. Congrats
Thank you for your kind words and doing a video of your play through too, these really help us with seeing how others approach the game. :)
A very nice little Experience, with an overall quite pleasant Feel to it. There are a Lot of very nicely done Elements, and although some Corners obviously had to be cut to get it done in Time (e.g. Cat goes *pop* ^^') and also a bit buggy in some spots, much of it feels quite professionally done. :)
Thank you for playing and your kind message, we did cut a few corners, in fact so many that we broke the scissors!
