How does you game fit the theme?
The game takes place in a building where we think nobody is inside, but there's actually people

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code myself as well as the music and some of the sound effects. Some other sound effects are coming from Soundly. For the 3D models, I was helped by Pegasix.

The light effects are amazing! The game is beautiful and feels really polished. Well done!

Developer

Thanks !

This game was amazing! The way you made the glowsticks slowly go dark really shows great game design. The music is also great at building suspense!

Developer

Thanks a lot !

Submitted

What an awesome, ridiculous enemy! Great take on the theme. Sound levels were a bit off, but other than that, nice work.

Developer

Thanks !

Submitted

I really liked the vibe and aesthetic of the game! Great graphics and music too. Also a big fan of the glowstick lighting system. However, I think the gameplay could use a bit more spicing up, since it seemed like all you really needed to do was find and turn on the levers. I also didn't ever really run into any of the enemies until the end because they didn't follow me into the hallways. I think it could be cool if you needed to hide from or distract them and they were more aggressive to compensate.

Developer

Thanks ! I agree with you, we need more than the levers in the game, and I think that mechanic is very basic too. That's why there is more level planned, as I wanted to expand the game further. And yes, the enemies aren't as aggressive as I planned, even if this game is the only one that I made where the pathfinding works correctly xD. This game certainly needs more work. I already thought of the "hide" mechanic, but I ran out of time very fast in this game jam (especially for personal reasons). I have planned an update at the end of the jam who fixes bugs and adds what I wanted to add in the first place. Thanks for your useful comment anyway !

Woaaaaaaahhhhh! C'est cacahuète! Tu avais commenté mon jeu de la Game Jam 2021.1 ;) Sinon trop bien ton jeu! J'ai pas réussi à le finir, mais je donne un 5 étoiles quand même xd. (Je viens d'aller voir et c'est quoi les chances! Mon jeu avait fini #280 overall et toi #281) 0_0

Developer

Ah salut ! C'est vrai je m'en rappelle ! Merci beaucoup pour l'avis sur le jeu, et t'inquiète même moi j'ai du mal à le finir (il se peut que pendant la période de développement j'avais bloqué le jeu en Easy parce que je suis nul mais tkt xD). Et genre on est vraiment à côté pour la dernière jam ? Incroyable le destin xD

Submitted

The graphics look very good! Did you use post processing for Unity3D? Or some other game engine alternative? I used Unity2D pixel art. The UI feels really clean and so does the gameplay. I didn't get too much time to do the UI that well.

If you don't mind, could you play and review my game? I need some constructive criticism lol.

Developer

Thanks ! Yes, I used post-processing for Unity (HDRP). Yeah, I love to design UIs in my video games so thanks a lot about that !

I'll surely play your game, don't worry !

Submitted

great game! the ui is good, the gameplay is smooth, really one of the best games on this jam!
check out my game too if you can :)

Developer

Thanks ! I'll play your game now

Submitted

Really nice game, scary and entertaining. I enjoyed the music, and overall design. Only critique is that the levels were very large but otherwise great effort!

Developer

Thanks ! The large levels were intentional (especially the highschool one) to give the player large areas to run from objects

Submitted

Game crashes. I don't know what's the reason.

Developer

Really ? It crashed when playing or when the game launches ?

Submitted

When it launches. It might be caused by my computer. I don't know.

Submitted

Nice concept and great sound and design
