This is such an impressive submission, congrats!! Really polished and well made. My computer also had trouble running it, it started wanting to overheat pretty quickly.
Thanks for playing! Thanks for the feedback! We’re going to try to improve on it after the jam, hopefully we can fix the issues you encountered.
Interesting setting that lends to a great atmosphere. Great build up into the main encounter with the monster. More player direction would help out a lot, but game was very enjoyable. Good job :]
Thanks for the feedback! We’ll see if we can improve that after the voting period ends :)
Awesome voice acting, pacing and atmosphere. Gives me a Resident Evil 4 vibe! I didn't get too far because I only have an old machine and it couldn't handle the game, but I really liked what I played!
Achieving RE4 vibes is a huge compliment, thanks!
And thanks for letting us know about performance issues on older machines. We’re planning an update after the voting period, so we can maybe look into adding options to make it more playable on older machines.
But we’re glad you enjoyed the part of it you got to experience!
Well done! The aesthetics are so good. I think adding some hints on the UI about what the player should do next will improve your game.
Thanks for checking it out and leaving some feedback! We’re planning to update the game once the voting period ends to help clarify things :)
I liked the game! I missed a crosshair in the center of the screen for the weapon.
I had a little trouble understanding what to do and where to go, since I don't speak English very well.
Falling down in that place at the end and making that creature run gave me an unexpected scare, haha!
Overall, the visuals, dialogues and sounds were very well done.
Congratulations to the team!
Thanks for playing and providing us with some great feedback!
We’ll take your point about the crosshair into consideration and possibly add that in an update after the voting period ends :)
We’re also planning to improve clarity on what to do and where to go as well, so hopefully that won’t be an issue anymore once we update the game.
We really appreciate the compliments!
Great visuals and VO!
thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing game. I love shooting that gun. The sound and visual effects where outstanding.
thanks for playing! :)
Wow, I Love this game, though i wish my computer can handle it, when i was recording, the fps was unbearable, im replaying it though!
PS: i love the gun model.. i just don't like the part where the monster knock me off the cliff, i was in the bush with the monster, until suddenly he pushed me over... i didn't even see the man :(
Thanks for playing and really glad you enjoyed it! Sorry you were experiencing frame drops :(
Also thanks for replaying it, hopefully went smoothly the second playthrough. Did you post your recording somewhere? We'd love to check it out.
We really appreciate the feedback. We're planning to update the game after the voting period ends, and that cutscene is on our list of things we want to touch up :)
Ofcourse! no problem! compared to my game, this is magnum opus.
About the recording, I'm planning on releasing them this saturday at my channel, I'll link your game on the description and on the comment, so they can visit the game out instead of watching my horrible fps recording xD!
Also also also, i tried the second playthrough, i do say the fps... were a bit.. uhmm... low but better when i was recording! it could be my laptop though so pay no mind! Good job nonetheless!
This is acutally a great amount of work with tons of information and a massive team. It is so polished and everything is well designed. Thanks for this amazing game.
Thanks a ton for checking our game out! We really appreciate the kind words and we're super glad you enjoyed the experience.
Really amazing game! I have so much to say about this game, first off I found myself standing right next to the bush as the cut scene started which added a whole new element to it LMAO.
I also really loved the voice acting I found myself saying the same lines moments before the main character would.
As for level design and everything I also thought it was really good I appreciate the fact that you could go inside every house and everyone house had some level of interior decoration instead of just leaving the world empty and lifeless.
I was pleasantly surprised when the ladder became a two in one deal with a shotgun as well LOL I also really loved the final fight it was super fun.
the only negatives I would have at all is i randomly got hit immediately as the creature spawned and the first cut scene was a little confusing as to what was actually happening maybe due to where I was when the scene actually started.
amazing work you guys did a great job!!
Thanks for playing! :)
I'm happy to hear you felt like the dialogue was close to what you were thinking as a player. I'm glad that you liked the level and liked all those little details (we were very close to not being able to add them due to time constraints haha).
Awesome to hear you enjoyed the finale. Sorry you encountered that bug in the fight. We're planning to fix up that issue and hopefully going to clear up any confusion during the intro cutscene. Thanks for the great feedback, we really appreciate it!
This was great! I played the original version as well as after the bug fix, and I have to say you guys did super well. The level design was great - really good visual queues to guide players, solid use of valves to keep progression natural, and a solid jump scare when the ground gave out!
I also really appreciated the quality of the voice acting, as well as the overall aesthetic you went for.
Well done!
Thanks for playing and glad you liked it! We really appreciate the feedback!
I designed the level layout and order of progression so I’m happy to hear you liked that part and noticed the use of valves :)
I’ll pass the compliments on to the team, they really made it all come together!
nice work, especially that final boss fight, the art style is very unique too, but I think I would remove the bars
Thanks for playing our game and for the feedback! The HUD is admittedly not the prettiest. We will take your feedback into consideration.
I thought this game was really good! This is really scary!
Thanks for playing!
Very, very cool submission.
The visuals were fantastic. I also like the use of whatever weird warping effect you had going on. It gave a retro feel but wasn't as hard to see as pixelation would be.
The music was superb, set the mood well. Unique tracks for unique sections made it feel like a movie score.
The level design was cool. Looping back on itself was a nice touch.
Voice acting worked well. SFX was well made too; nothing felt like it was missing, in terms of sound.
Overall, possibly the best game this jam, definitely the best I've seen so far (and I've seen some fairly good games).
Wow! Thanks so much for the high praise! We all worked really hard on this project, so its really nice to hear you liked it so much. There were a lot of great games this jam. I'm thankful you count ours among them.
Awesome story and graphics! Loved the feel of the environment. Only issues I ran into is the movement on slopes felt a little janky and I wasn't able figure out how to defeat the monster in the cave, any advice?
Hey! Thanks for playing the game! To beat the monster in the cave, you have to shoot it with the rifle 8 times. Thanks for the feedback about the movement on slopes. I will look into that and try to get it fixed as soon as possible.
Fixed the issue! That was a movement bug introduced in the most recent build due to a previous bugfix. Thanks a ton for the help tracking it down
some good graphics, nice feel and movement to the gameplay, and definitely gives a good horror vibe :)
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed the experience!
Great job! The monster in the cave's movement was awesome hahah, caught me by surprise!
Thanks we are super glad you liked it :) it was a lot of fun putting it all together, and our team worked super hard on it!
Seems pretty cool and I really like the graphics (and I always love to see voice acting in jam games {see my game as proof}), and the audio and animation is good. That said, I admit I was stuck in the town with seemingly nowhere to go--I obtained a crowbar but it did nothing. Offer me guidance dear devs
Thanks! Use the crowbar to open wood planks to get inside the mine!
It was really fun to play, i had problems with the first monster but besides that everything was really really good. Loved the voice acting
Thanks for playing! I am glad you had fun with it.
An amazing game, I loved the pacing of the game, the voice acting was well done, the overall coding was great.
10/10 would fall 5 stories and survive with only a scratch again
Thanks so much for playing our game :) It was super fun watching you go through all the moments we set up.
