The sonar system is very well thought out, interesting game and narratively well brought.

Nice work!

What an innovative idea! One of the favorite entries I've played so far. The boss fight gave me chills. It is one of that either "Dafuc is this?" or "This is art!" moment. I personally like it. Good job!

The first part was actually satisfying and really unique, but the final boss is really weird and really doesn't fit with the rest.

Gah how in the world did you make that reflecting sound wave, that's brilliant! The music was on point, and damn a boss battle too? Though I wish you'd used the echolocation in the boss battle, it did feel a bit odd that the game became a bullet hell and ditched the main mechanic that had made the game stand out. It fit thematically to have that crazy angel dude but if you'd used the echo mechanic in the fight that'd made it that much more memorable. Still though amazing job alex, nice seeing another great game from you!

The waves are just an array of points that with some raycasting and stuff reflect from the walls and reveal those walls. 
But the reason the echolocation was ditched is that (spoiler alert) the sun was revealed so does the light, basically, you can now see the world and there was no reason to use abstract shapes and echolocation. I agree that probably I should've used the echolocation at the end in some way, but I wanted to create a "WHAT?" effect on the player and disorient them. And I think I did it??

Very cool concept, cool to see you around btw :)
The visuals are quite nice and minimal, not more than needed, and the audio suits it well

The echolocation is really innovative, and I find it makes the atmosphere more creepy, which is what you’re trying to achieve when making a horror game. Do you mind rating mine when you get a chance?

The UI is nice and the fact you use echolocation is just extremely innovative. I personally used pixel art for my first ever time.

Could you try out my game? I need constructive criticism.

I'm Not Alone! (A Story of Anxiety)

I'm a big fan of this game. The echolocation is really nice innovation, which creates a game that's equal parts chill (all those bell chimes) and anxiety inducing (as enemies creep forward). Nice job!

This concept is great! It's very much a slower paced game, but I really like the bits of story so that the game doesn't feel bland and stale. Sound was great and might leave my ears ringing for a while lol. Cool Game!
