Quiet, Please! Post Compo Version

QuietPlease

Since making "Quiet, Please!" for Ludum Dare 22, I've taken some time to improve on it and add additional content. I was really happy with what I was able to accomplish in the 48hr time period, but I had a lot of ideas that I was not able to get to.

The biggest criticism of the compo version was its length. This updated version has new areas, new and improved puzzles, an intro and a lot more sound and art assets.

The new version of "Quiet, Please!" can be played in a web browser (Unity) here:

The original, 48hr entry is here.

Here are a few screenshots from the new version of the game:
