- Enemy sounds poorly implemented, far too loud. Gun takes 5 seconds to fire after button press. Otherwise, a good looking game let down by technical issues. Theme implementation way too literal.

Art and sounds are great !
light managment seems nice too, but it should be lighter on the player vision I guess.
its just sad that the 1sec delay on shoot bug kills the gameplay ...
But without that bug, I'm sure it can be realy good.
I'll give a try if you update that after the Jam !
this game is impossible to see, even in a dark room at max brightness with no bluelight filter.
there’s dark and moody games — and then there’s dark and annoying games like St. Plage.
no, the game would gain atmosphere because it would be possible to see the game and play it. the important thing for a dark atmosphere is not so much physical darkness, but limited visibility from most of the screen being black.
making a scene almost completely black to create a very dark atmosphere works for movies because the movie continues even when you don’t understand anything. this doesn’t work for games because games can only continue when you can understand them.
pretty good catch of the mood you where trying to create. good use of 2D occlusion and light .
Fun entry! I'll admit that by the end I was so slow I didn't find the last monster coz I got a bit frustrated, so if there was a cool entry I'm sorry I missed it! Perhaps I should try another with fewer cursed bullets fired :D I really enjoyed the lighting and the overall creepy aesthetic
Spooky. Made even scarier by the gun. Nice lighting and nice sound effects.
Love the atmosphere and art style, the concept is cool, as some have said the sound for the enemies was a bit loud
Atmosphere was REALLY good (though the enemy sound was just a little bit too loud), really creepy!
I sadly couldn't find the last 2 monsters, not sure where they were hiding.
Excellent concept idea, surprising how scary it actually felt. The lighting and music were on point!
The idea behind this is awesome! I love how the shooting is tied with the movement. I felt like the movement was a bit slow and the gun was a bit slow to begin with. However that increased my terror when I ran into monsters so that must be intentional. The character design and the monsters design is very cool. I also liked that you let me know how many monsters were left.
