Very confusing, I think adding the controls into the game itself would be a good idea. It felt like I had to be dead on top of items to pick them up, which felt a bit weird. I'd say maybe just make it so walking over an item picks it up and maybe make the items a little different, I was never really too sure what I was grabbing.

The aiming is on the sluggish side and it wasn't terribly obvious what I was supposed to be doing. From the screenshots it looks rad as all hell, but after coming across a blue cube and trying every button I could think of (E, Q, Shift, Ctrl, Space), nothing happened. I'll come back to try this one.

Yeah the aim sensitivity really depends on your mouse dpi because it's a fixed value since I didn't have the time to make a settings menu. The game is also missing a tutorial so the best I could do was to explain the goals in the game description.

You should be able to pick up the cubes by pressing E, I'll check the code but I have no Idea what this issue can be due to.

Thanks for the feed back :)

Really enjoyed the look of this game, the fog effect was really spooky and set the atmosphere well (how did you make that?) and the reload animation of the shotgun was really cool too.


I'm not sure if the shotgun is supposed to kill the ghosts or if it is mainly a defensive tool to get away, maybe that could be explained better, but other than that, very fun game!

Thx

For the fog effect I used a combination of environmental fog (unity's built-in), post-processing and distance fog (shader)

Nah you can't kill ghosts with the shotgun you can only use it to move. You can kill the ghosts with the megaphone if you have a battery tho !

So I got to a red cube for ammo but my character is not picking it up, so I wasn't able to shoot. Am I missing something? Is there a key to pick up items?

Developer (1 edit)

You're supposed to pick it up by pressing E, I should have mentioned it, that's my bad
Once you have ammo you can reload by pressing R

I see, I will try it again now. Loved the ambience and the concept of the game
