How does you game fit the theme?
My game depicts the fears of life and that they are not real most of the time. You have to face them and not walk around them. It tells how the world of fears and doubts is not real.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I did pretty much the coding myself but I also used some standard assets from the asset store.

I finished the game and I think there's a couple of things I didn't like, I looked at some of the other comments and I don't want to sound repetitive so I'll avoid the ones I've seen already discussed.

The enemies can be shot from way too far and if you shoot at them they just stay still, so the game is too easy and there's no real challenge.

Some parts of the level are broken, I don't know how to explain were it is properly, but from outside, in the desert you can just come in through a wall to the main hall where there's the door.

I found the music not really fitting and in general not that good.

Great game, here are some things that would make the game more fun: The movement feels pretty slow. It would be good if running would actually feel fast. The gun needs a reload time. Its way too easy to kill the enemies. Also it would be better if the bullet hits would have a better impact on hit, or even a bit more visible than just a tiny smoke. 

Anyways, well done in seven days! :)

imo the game is really rough

For a horror game, it's not scary or atmospheric at all and overall there are some pretty big issues: The level is fairly empty (especially with the movement, I liked the jump physics tho) and everything looks the same, the shooting isn't responsive at all and way too loud compared to the rest of the game, and apart from a few lines of text, I just didn't see the theme here (you work through fears and doubts by shooting them?)

this looks waaaaay better than my game

Cool game! Very ambitious! Rated!

There are plenty of things to improve on, but for having only 7 days, well done, and keep up.

I liked the theme, it kind of reminded me of a game called "Clive Baker's Jericho"

And just like that game, the theme and story  are very nice, but the gameplay design needs a little bit of work.

But still... Great job! I liked your game. It felt like it was made with much love. I hope you only get better and better!

i like the game vibes and shooting part is fun, but the jump feels a bit floaty for me

Submitted

I had fun playing your game! Good job in the jam :)

Good Game, and Scary!!!!

Neat game, just really simple. Not much to do other than walk and shoot. Good work on it though!

I enjoyed playing this!! It's a pretty chill game, I found it kinda relaxing just walking around the map and collecting the gems. one small thing, the cursor was not visible in the main menu after finishing the game, so I wasn't able to navigate through it. But I think it was a solid game considering the time given to make it!! Rly great job ^^b

Cool game!

The shooting feels very nice and fun. However it's kinda weird to go from the main menu background of an ancient temple to futuristic rifles and zombies. The jump also doesn't work outside the temple, but other than that I had a blast.

Submitted

Im confused if the traps/enemies were not supposed to the damage you because the mines at the beginning were very real.

Other than that the camera manipulation when running and zooming was nice and the shooting mechanic was okay too. So Id say good job on the coding part. Good job

Submitted

Cool, spooky game with a cool message at the end! I haven't seen many 3D games so well done :) I would have loved for that big door to open after collecting all the gems (also there were 27/25) and some more visible effects from shooting (like a smoke trail from my gun to whatever I hit, maybe a little recoil on the gun animation) but I think you did a great job, ESPECIALLY considering you went the 3D route for a one week game jam. Well done!

This was a great game. But adding some like quality change will be great in the future cause all of the pc users can run it! Overall nice concept of the game, ive found out that you can just go down the map XD. But overall that's a nice game for a short period of time, Keep up the good work!

thanku, we'll surely improve it ;)

Awesome that you did a full on 3d fps shooter game for a game jam. But that is hard to make in a week, because of that it doesn't feel quite complete yet though.


- Jump is buggy
- Picked up more then 25/25 gems, but nothing happened
- Gameplay starts to feel like a walking simulator after a minute or 2.

I also don't quite get the corelation to the theme, I know it's your fears and all, but right now it feels more like: BOOM you're put into a world, shoot up some zombies.

You could make the gems a little more hidden, or behind puzzles to make the gameplay more intresting. The zombies can be a bit faster to.

Thanks for the feedback, actually after collecting at least 25 diamonds, you have to go to the big locked door in this picture, then it takes u to the ending cutscene, we'll surely improve the gameplay as u suggested ;)
