Considering you made this without prior coding experience it's actually a very attractive concept piece!
I would genuinely like to see this game continue to be fleshed out as the art and ambience is definitely there!

If you need some good resources to get you working with UE blueprints don't hesitate to message me through the jam discord, I have so many tutorials saved from over the years i can link you. =)

This is a promising start for a good horror game! The setting and mood of the game are appropriately creepy. The red overlay and the noise will be excellent when you guys add the entity; it'll be nerve-racking!

My very humble suggestion might be to have a simpler control scheme—perhaps a single interact button for every action. I can see myself getting a bit flustered trying to hide from the evil entity, only to get confused at the controls for a split second and die because of it.

Other than that, it looks really promising! Keep up the great work!

EDIT: Also, the concept art looks sick! Cool stuff!

Promising start! I'd recommend changing the hide key though; unless it was placed far away for a purpose, H is a little out of the way to reflexively use during gameplay. Great work on the atmosphere, concept art was cool, too. Keep it up!

I think the game is a bit to heavy on the post processing effects. They'd probably work well when you've changed to the scene but It's a bit much for just regular gameplay. 

I really liked the shader that tints the screen red. The movement feels smooth, and aesthetically, it's very pleasing. Great job!

Love love love the art! The menu screen, death screen and the pages (especially the hand drawn stuff) looks so good. Huge fan! Very intriguing concept as well and the monster design looks very menacing.

I hope you get to work more on this and finish it, even if you didn’t have enough time during the game jam. For artist with no prior programming experience, you’ve done a great job! Keep it up!
