TERRIFYING and Amazing game!

It was very hard to find my way around the level - however, I got there in the end and the monster being in the house was terrifying.

The main thing I'd like to see improved is maybe something to help the player locate where he is, half the time I was turned around and ended up going back to the house before I found the shed!

Super creepy and great atmosphere to start things off!

What I Liked:

  • I always enjoy some goofy voice acting!
  • That creature is incredibly terrifying.
  • The house had great design and seemed to naturally guide the player into finding the flashlight. 
  • Rain and lighting were some of the best I've seen this game jam!
  • Praise be to you for using an auto attach flashlight. Thank you for this!

Some Notes:

  • The design of the house was great, but when I got outside, it was too big to know where I was going. I eventually wondered over and over again before getting gobbled up by the monster.

This is a great entry! I think it could have been a bit better if the outside area had more guidance in mind when designing it. 

Cheers! And thanks for a great submission!

Good job at creating such a creepy atmosphere! It fits the theme very well 👏🏻

The glowing light cubes were very useful to navigate inside the house. However, it was difficult to find the shed outside without them. The area is very large but it feels a bit empty.

I managed to turn on the light inside the shed but the monster still got me 😱

This was such a neat experience, I really liked it! I absolutely loved going outside into the rain with the flashlight <3 Also, loved all the art on the walls lol

Enjoyed playing this - it had a good spooky feel to it and the environment was scary!

The light guides at the start helped eventually, but on the first run I got stuck in a corridor where the picture was and I couldn't see anything. 2nd run through was fine though...

Nice entry, well done :)

I also could not find the shed like in the trailer video. I went straight all the way to the farm and couldn't find it. I liked the lights to follow for the player in the dark, its a good way to keep the player moving in the direction you want! The voice acting though, LOL! DANG NABBIT!

Really nice game.  I really like the little lights as guides.  It really helped direct the process.  I also really liked the forest, rain and props.  All excellent.

I got outside and couldn't find the shed that's in your trailer video, so I couldn't proceed. Where is it? I get lost in games a lot.

Its easy to follow the fence but when you spawn just go straight ahead on where you spawned and you should get there!
