Really really cool. I ended up running into an issue where all non-music audio cut out for the last quarter of the game or so, but still had a lot of fun.

The survival aspect was really well-executed. It felt like picking up a set of shotgun shells would unlock a new area for me, since I’d have the ammo to explore a new, more hostile place. Ended up with 68/76 items at 36 minutes of playtime.

Great atmosphere too. I gotta admit, I was kinda hoping for a jumpscare somewhere, but I’m not upset that there wasn’t one. The game builds tension well with the bloodstains and spooky music. Great job!

It is incredible of the best of this edition of the jam.

Happy to see another horror game submission! Loved the galaga minigame (mad props for a game within a game) :-)

This is a very impressive game… Amazing atmosphere. I loved that the more hurt I was the slower I walked and dropped more blood. Having no HUD also adds to the threat, highly realistic game. Wonderful job!

I finished the whole thing and it was pretty fun. I wish the monsters had some sounds though.

The game really gripped me. It took me 25 minutes to finish it. The artwork is beautiful and atmospheric. 

Really great job!

The scope of the game is huge and the pixel art is fantastic. 5/5. Great job!

I really liked the sense of having to investigate the map! And the map was huge! The music also put me in the vybe. Great game!

It's nice to see another survival-horror game, but this is on a way different level than mine. Map is huge and designing every location should take too much time and effort. Reminds me of Silent Hill. Monster designs are pretty cool. Sometimes a very thin dark vertical line appears on my screen, I think its from background since player seems uneffected from it.

Played for a few minutes but then I got stuck in the inventory. I think it had to do with fullscreen. When pressing ESC to close the menu, the game was no longer in fullscreen but I was still in the menu and couldn’t do anything.

The game felt a bit too slow for me. So I would have liked a way to move faster (like holding shift to run).

Otherwise, the game looks great and I like how the theme comes through with the graphics and music.

Pretty impressive to make a whole survival game with a big map for a jam.

Ok, this has got to be the most immersive game of this jam. I have not had the time to finish it yet, but I will definitely be back to do so.

Very nice atmosphere and art :)

Having Spent 47 minutes playing this game, I think I can say its a banger! 

Love the art style of the game and the atmospheric music is perfect. Level design is great and I did have to explore every inch of the map to find the endgame area, but it was a fun experience and I really like how you have created the map for this game. All the UI elements and sounds work great, though I noticed partway through my gun effects sound stopped (but this might have been me clicking on something off-screen that caused it. 

Needless to say, I think this is going to be a top contender for this Jam! :D
