  • Unique and eerie tone! I love the visual design and the approach to the silhouettes and eyes. Makes it incredibly unsettling and creepy! The background story and art provided some context and I thought it was quite well done too. Great work!

Like the concept and art style. I think making the standing black figures 3D models would have been much more creepy, like you could make them facing and watching you while you pass them. Nice game overall

Developer

Thank u very much for feedback! We wanted to do 3D models, but didn't have much time within the jam :( But we will try to improve our skills and speed in 3D modeling in the future!)

Submitted

Maybe also rely on already made 3D models and play with materials, pretty fast workflow :D

Submitted

Absolutely love the art style.

Developer

Thanks! Hope u enjoyed it)

I found the concept for the game really beautiful, it got me jumpscared a couple of times and the character designs are pretty awesome.

In terms of gameplay it is pretty simple but effective, I found it a little bit unfair sometimes because of how close the character were positioned but nothing too frustrating, just had to do it in two attempts, the characters looked like silhouettes of models posing as intense anime wallpapers, but nothing experience bereaking.

Overall is a good and recommendable game from this jam, awesome work!

Thank u for detailed feedback and praise. We very appreciate that)

Stranger danger! Took me a few goes before I got the hang of it but really creepy and fun game - awesome work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Hope it was fun)

Submitted

That was great! The art is really cool, gameplay is simple and efficient and the sound design is pretty good! I just wonder if there could be another use to the run key appart from being an auto lose button ^^' 

Anyway, great entry, I loved it!

Developer(+1)

Running is not an automatic losing button. Perhaps we have overdone the complexity :D It's just that when you run, enemies notice you at a greater distance from them. But, you can still avoid their grasping hands if you stop and become absolutely quiet!

The game reminded me a bit of the ending nightclub scene of Farcry 3 for one reason or another, but 10000% scarier. Really enjoyable and scary experience, keep up the great work!

Developer

Thank u for feedback!)

Submitted

Very creepy game! Well done! 

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Love the black and white aesthetics. Too bad that i am really scared of jump-scares :(

Developer(+1)

Huh, I think that u was scared is good for theme of this jam. Thank u for playing and feedback!

Submitted

Cool game like the shadow figures and the different interactions when they pop-up on the screen. Did end up walking through the walls which ended up helping me reach the end quite easily, but didn't seem intentional. Though the music and aesthetic really help with the creepy feeling of it all making the jump scares of them popping up on your screen all the more potent. A other small addition that would be nice would just be button sound effects or bringing the music on to the start menu. Thought my audio wasn't working at first since there was a music volume option, but I wasn't hearing anything. Nice game had fun time playing it and definitely got jump scared a couple times.

Developer

Thanks for feedback and playing!
We had a button for music in options on the first screen of the game) Maybe it was not so obviously, we will take this into account in the future!

Submitted

Cool concept, very creepy. The art is charming and the atmosphere is great. 

Developer

Thank u very much!

Submitted

Loved the visuals, especially the monsters that were around. So a great game overall.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Great atmosphere, Love the visuals, The gameplay was sort of simple as I just held W and moved left and right slightly, but the feeling of dread and being a stranger was great.

Developer

Thanks for playing and comment! We appreciate that)

Submitted

Loved the environment, sound, art style, and gameplay, haven't gotten to the end yet even after dying over 20 times, but am excited knowing there are multiple endings. I guess one thing I would like is to know how exactly I died so I can try to improve each run as I don't know if the woman kills me because I'm too close or making too much sound.

Developer

Sorry, if winning was so complicated! The closer you are to the enemy, the more likely you are to be caught. But I'll give you a hint, you can escape from the clutches of the monster :) Try to be absolute quite, when the enemy caught u.  The running is the loudest, walking quieter, but you still make sounds. But if you try to stop for a few seconds, when monster catch you... you can see, that's happening)

Submitted

Great sound design. Super creepy.

Developer

Thank you! Hope it was fun too)

Submitted

Love the sound design

Developer

Thank u very much!

Good sounds and atmosphere. Simple, but challenging gameplay. (Only one thing should be fixed : unexpected splash sound at the start)

Developer

Thanks, glad u enjoy it)
We fix the sound later, after voting)

Developer

Thanks for more complete feedback)

Submitted(+1)

nice one!

Developer

Thank u!

Wow, that looks good. Deserver more attention. Beautifully done. Couldn't reach for the "good ending" tho, if there is any, game said that my time is up  and I couldn't restart :D
But I liked what i got :)

Developer

Thank u very much for feedback. We are glad that you liked the concept)
The game has alternative good ending, sorry that it was so complicated, we discovered a bug with time in our code too late :(
We'll fix it later, hoping more players could get through realm of dead, have more fun and see all the endings!
