This game is so good. I couldn't stop playing it. Unusual controls depending on the game type but still easy to adapt to controls. I liked the atmosphere and art very much. It was spooky. I had fun. Thanks for submitting this :D
No, I could not survive the nightmare! XD I did enjoy it, even if that music will haunt me in my deepest sleep. I loved the whole atmosphere but did have a bit of trouble aiming. Would LOVE to play this with controller support! :)
I quite enjoyed the PSX style, though I think the aiming is difficult on a keyboard and is more suited to a gamepad which may be part of why people have struggled a bit. Not sure if some tweaking to make diagonal aiming on keyboard possible might help? I also had an issue with rolling since if I was holding a movement key my browser tab would close or open a save dialog or something, it seemed to not be being handled fully. Very interesting though and I loved the visuals!
I just dont like the mechanics it can be improved if we could aim with mouse. Juicy vibration effects. Well Done!
Haha its nice, but I do wish if I could aim with the mouse. Its a bit hard to dodge and shoot the enemy at the same time.
The production is carefully crafted. Amazing!
Liked the camera shake on shots, good luck with the Jam :)
really liked theme and visuals :)
Thank you!
I loved the style and the mood. Just that music and title screen really brings you in and i loved the ps1-esque graphics
Thank you for playing! :D
