The graphics are great. The concept is also nice. Thanks for this game. What shader did you use for the graphics mate?

LIMINAL SPACEIt would be nice if you could adjust the sensitivity. How does the theme fit with this game? The art looks awesome.

Slime HunterI plastered the theme all over the game with the little notes that you find throughout the map. There's a bit of a story that you slowly uncover as you explore the game and unlock new areas, though it is very subtle and hint out at a larger story surrounding the town. I encourage you to explore a bit more :) Thanks for playing! Love your game.
Love the look, reminded me of N64 GoldenEye.
Wish i could have moved a bit faster though.

The Dead Don't SleepThe aesthetic in this game was great, really felt like one of those horror VHS games. I think the pistol could pack more of the bunch. I did walk through a door and fell out of the map though, I don't know if that was intentional or not but it sucked to make it that far without taking much damage just to have the whole level reset on me. Overall the vibe was great and the game was fun, great entry guys!

Ghastly Garysuper creepy!! i really liked how the low poly graphics contributed to how scary everything was. and having the player piece together the story from items :)
Submitted
notes from bubble tea shopWow this game as creepy!
I would have wanted more mechanics to the game. But the creepiness was a success!
Making the enemies black in a dark scene was a genius move. Also, the notes made the game a bit scarier!
Well done, wonderful job :)

Death WishI'm not into horror, but your game is really good! It is well made and I can see how much thought and effort you put into it. Congratulations!

Gus, the ghostI've got to say this is a very well polished game. It has an eerie atmosphere which I personally prefer and you have done a great job at it. The interactive way of telling the story is good and boy it's scary. When that one AI ran across the screen, I left my mouse. Really enjoyed it and looking forward to the updates if you have planned some. Although mouse sensitivity could be increased a little bit. Thank you for this submission.

DEATH IS ONLY THE BEGINNING!Awesome game! This is really polished for the time constraints.
Feedback: 1) A mouse aim speed option would be nice. It seemed low on the desktop version and high on the web version. I could probably mess with my laptop settings to fix that though. 2) Having some subtle music would really add to the atmosphere, even if the music only played in certain areas. Or, if no music, maybe more variety with the ambient sounds. 3) The enemies could use some sort of 'damage' animation. Right now, you can't tell if you're hurting them until they're dead.
Very solid entry :) Thanks for sharing.

Lario's SlideVery good ambiance, great work. although I somethings weren't as intuitive and objects seemed random as to why they would open things, after playing for a while I went down some spooky stairs and went through a door and fell (out of the world?) and died, over all though it was a great scary experience, I was very spooked by the person that ran past at the start >.< and found the crawly guys 2 spoopy 5 me so I shot em >:3.

Sam/SaraThanks for you review! The objects you collect and the areas in the game had a lot to do with the story, and some of the notes you read hint to what they are, though doesn't explain it entirely. The void doors in the basement were an issue many people have also come across and I'm looking into changing it. Thanks for playing!
(like other people mentioned)I love the psx/old graphics kind of vibe, very nice ambience :D
Also, I've accidentally found out that i could climb trees xD
