I enjoyed this game as it reminded me of a mixture of Reloaded (for the PlayStation) and Hotline Miami.
The mouse needed to be locked and confined to the game window because i kept losing it and wasn't able to aim at the monsters.
Other than that it was a really fun experience!
yeah im a noob and didnt know how to lock the mouse to the window without locking it to the middle of the screen lol, something ill work on in the future tho.
Scary but "fun" to play horror survival game :-)
For your first attempt for a horror game this is not bad at all! The atmosphere of the game was indeed spooky and eerie. Especially by good use of audio and sfx and the lighting. Also the blood marks were a good guidance and good for the horror ambiance.
Controlling the character could maybe be a bit more polished. The turning with the mouse was not so smooth to aim. But I discovered that when I was far enough of the creatures I could shoot them will they were not moving and dead before they could reach me. A recoil effect on the creatures when hit would be nice also by the way.
Nice self made pixel art and the audio fitted well for the game style. Theme and NO UI both checked.
Well done horror game, nice job!
PS: Nice devlog once again also!
Thank you for your kind Review <3, Aiming and moving being a lil clunky was actually what I was "Aiming for" (Bah Dum Tss). it was a bit smoother but the game posed literally no threat, with the slightly more clunky movement It put a sense of urgency to the player to take things very slow, cause as soon as the player finds out they can just sprint through the whole game without getting hurt, it takes away from it LOL.
Ah.. Check.. Thanks for explaining that... 😬
You succeeded in that 💪🙂
Excellent horror game! Great visuals and lighting too!
I felt that making the character move faster would make the game a bit zippier.
Yeah i was really trying hard to make the game not zippy lol
GREAT GAME!! I like the horror atmosphere
Thank you!
The most action packed game I've played so far. Dying felt a bit annoying bc it meant I'd have to spend a while making my way back to the big building. I think the lighting at the end was done very well. Congrats on that!
Ty, and yeah the game was short enough where is you knew where to go you should easily sprint back to where you were but too short overall to make me want to add a checkpoint system
I like the horror theme of this game and think that you did very good with that.
Thank you!~
NP.
Love the ominous atmosphere, and very good sound design! Maybe it would be nice if the camera could follow the player faster because it's hard to see what's coming when sprinting. But I guess getting jump scared by monsters like that contributes to the experience :p
Yeah it was kinda just to try to get the player to not sprint everywhere lol
Goddamn! That's impressive, awesome one. Love the scary atmosphere
Spoopy scary!~ <3 lol Thanks for playing that means alot to me ^^ !
Best Game I Played In This Jam So Far, I Think We've Got The Winner!
:O omgosh no wai! <3
Not a bad game! It would be nice if you made the gameplay more varied after the jam. Almost had a heart attack from the exit fullscreen button LOL
lol, and yeah Ive got that a few times, I think it would be a really cool project to expand on, add UI too and an inventory and what not.
really liked the use of lightning and its fun
Thank you for playing!
love the lighting effects and the general atmosphere! very spooky. well done, especially following the themes of light/dark and zero UI
Thank you for your kind words! I tried super hard to get the atmospheric feel, since Ive never done anything quite like this before.
nice atmopshere and pixel art! a little bit scary game!
Even a little bit scary is good enough for me, Was not expecting my first ever horror game to turn out that great but I really love how it did ^^
More scream from the woods!
Very cool concept and I like the sound design! It was a bit hard shooting enemies because they just got close very fast and killed me even tough I've shoot them, so maybe knockback would be nice or more health. But for your first horror game, you've nailed it!
Thanks for playing , yeah enemies where still a bit hard to balance perfectly, if you spam your gun at them they dont stand a chance but if they see you first your in for a bad time lol
Awesome game! Perfect use of zero ui with the blood leading the way. The shooting is a little hard to do and movement is a little chunky but overall I enjoyed the atmosphere. Entering the building was very cool
Thank you!, and yeah I kinda felt the game needed a lil clunk, thats what makes it scary :P
i like the game
Thank you for playing!
