Quite atmospheric and an interesting premise. It manages to deal with a dark topic without being too explicit about it.
I didn't play the original version, but the new one with the color-coded lights gave me the clues to get past the first puzzle.
Things got a bit weird at the very end, the camera change wasn't reflected in the controls, the blur effect over the collected items/emotions was obscuring them, determination displayed twice and also there were two versions of the player character at the very end. In a way you could suggest this was expressing inner turmoil!
Hey!
The game has the right atmosphere, with the creepy ghost following like that and the sound did it's job, it's super creepy.
However, I couldn't pass the first puzzle with the door (I didn't understand what to do when with the switches on the floor, and then the door somehow opened but there was a bug? And I had a "door inside the door".
Let me know how can I continue from there :)
Thank you!
I didn't notice this bug. Thank you for reporting it. The idea of the puzzle is to press the buttons in the same sequence order as the lights. I should add the light with the same color to the button, but I forgot 🤦♂️
Cool game! How long have you been using unreal? is it difficult to learn?
I've been using Unreal for a year or so. If you already know Unity or any other game engine, you are halfway there this is a very good documentation https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/unreal-engine/unreal-engine-for-un.... The concepts are very similar, and coding with Blueprints is not that hard. The challenge for me was to learn C++ from scratch, it is more different from C# than I expected.
What about the compiling, in unreal restarting the editor everytime. And I heard Unity can have really long compile times
Unreal editor can recompile without closing it, but if the change is big, it's better to close the editor and recompile the game.
Unity can have long compiling times, but I haven't experienced in the time that I used it
