Really good sorry and artwork. The gameplay was scary and had great atmosphere. I would love to see this game expanded on in the future. I also love how you get buff when you reload.

I'm getting distinct Darkwood vibes.

That is a spooky game somehow hahaha. Enjoyed the game until it looks like I cannot shoot and move at the same time making it spookier.  I really would love to see some visual feedbacks like enemies getting hit else everything is good so far :) I also like the sanity bars and stuff like phasmophobia but on 2d :D

Cool entry this. I really like the loss of things. They all had a real big impact on what was going down. I found some of the game loop a bit clunky. Firing the gun was a bit flat. A bit of juice here and there will elivate this already great game. Super good job. Kudos

This game has a really good atmosphere, I liked the stamina system, reminded me of Amnesia. Sfx were good too. My main concerns are the feedbacks, you don't really feel that you hit an enemy or take damage. Sometimes I had trouble to shoot but it's because I had trouble understanding you can't move and shoot at the same time. The screen appearing when you die also dissapeared multiple time instantly for me because just before I was in a middle of a fight an clicked everywhere lol. But the game has a good concept and atmosphere, with just a small fix on the feedbacks he can be really great ! Loved the atmosphere, Good job !

Man this game had a really good atmosphere. Liked how you can't shoot while moving or reloading. It gave me a hardcore feeling. the game also made me explore the map a bit which was fun. Liked the lighting & sfx too. 

But I had problems with feedback about losing health and stamina. and does the player lose health slowly over time? cause I think that's what was happening to me...

overall this is one of the better games of the jam I played so far!

Developer

Thank you for the kind feedback! The way you were losing health over time was due to you having low sanity, this value is lowerd when you are in the presence of an enemy and the lower the sanity value, the more health you lose over time. The sanity value does regenerate over time when you are not in range of the enemies. Stamina is lost when holding shift and moving (sprinting) and regenerates while still or walking but at half the rate for the latter.

liked the atmosphere and the concept of leaving behind a part of yourself after every death. I feel the health, stamina and sanity bars might've been better horizontal but regardless the game is good, great job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Loved the atmosphere here felt like I was right in the action. The visuals are great too. Did have some fun with the gameplay such as spinning around while walking xD The controls were a little clanky with you needing to stop to shoot/reload etc. Still a solid entry, good work xD

Thanks for the feedback!  I hope the lack of cursor didn't affect your gameplay too much, that wasn't intended!

I loved the gameplay for this one and the story at the beginning I think that was really cool.  I had an issue where when I picked up bullets I would get the clicking sound and it would say you have no bullets but otherwise really well done.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We will be looking into the clicking issue promptly.
