Would love to see more of this game! Unfortunately I ran into that issue of not being able to continue after dying, which was a shame. Can't wait to see more updates post-jam!

I liked the story parts that I saw, I just wish my potato pc had the specs to run this above 2 fps haha

This took me by surprise!

I actually was anticipating a quite scary game but I was shocked to see that wasnโ€™t the case. In fact, I will admit I had a little difficulty trying to figure out in what direction the game was going.

This being said, mechanics wise it worked well and looked mostly good doing it! I enjoyed learning about the ship! However, I feel the enemies and shooting was almost an after-thought to just a puzzle game as it even used the default UE4 sounds and physics.

I feel this is a good title, but has a case of mistake identity! Overall though, good job!

Hey y'all! I played your game and I really enjoyed it. I don't know if I'd call it a horror game, or at least not in its current state, as I found the music very relaxing actually. I liked exploring the ship and reading the story, and I think that this is the strongest thing about your game.
I'd like to see it developed further. Great job guys :)

Thanks for the feedback!
Yeah, we think it would have been at least a bit better had we got all the sound effects in. We had a few technical difficulties and weren't able to get our audio person in to edit the project.

I think at least most of the team is interested in developing it further (we think it deserves the extra love), and we actually have a better (darker) ending planned, so hopefully it's worth a replay when we're done!

Hey everyone! So we didn't get everything done that we wanted to, but we're going to continue updating this one!

One unfortunate issue, is if you die, the game doesn't reset. The only way out is to hit ALT-F4 and restart the game.

Hope everyone enjoys playing it as we managed to get done during Scream Jam, and let us know how you liked it!
