This game is really interesting. I like it, but since I fudged up so hard I will do a second video about this. Though if your interested about my video, you can check it here.
Awesome throwback to old school gaming, made me feel right at home with 3rd person fixed camera angles and I highly recommend this game for anyone looking for a short survival horror experience!
Really creative concept--though, I do have some criticisms.
Having the entity chase you around constantly kind of kills any incentive for exploration. It puts you in a panic state and the last thing you want to do is spend too much time interacting with your surroundings. Perhaps the entity could have been triggered a little bit later in the game, once you've been given a bit of time to scope out the lay of the land. The fact that the game is monochromatic (not saying it's a bad thing: I appreciate the stylistic choice), and the fact that the architecture/level design is kind of bland, makes it difficult to distinguish where you are--this problem, again, is amplified when you're under stress because of the monster.
I don't want to make it sound like having a monster chase you around is a bad design idea. It's really not. But if implemented better, it wouldn't get in the way of the immersion and exploration aspect of the game (which is what I really like about survival horror).
Other than that, good job. Hope you continue making great games!
I had a lot of fun! Despite not understanding the controls a whole lot. i believe if you can simplify it. it will help with a learning curve. granted i don't understand how you would go about it! BUT! this game is a must try and love lore you here and there in the game.
thats true! im not hating on the controls by any means. felt a little off..but that could the very curve players may need to learn to get good at the game.
Finally was able to upload the game, last time I tried I had a sound issue (Thanks to SteamVR popping up), re-recorded and got new footage, feedback, suggestions and an ending achieved.

Hey, I'm looking for a new horror game to play, but I don't do well with jumpscares- does this have any?
It's hard to say. if you're saying like an FNAF Jump Scare of something screaming right in your face. No, that is not in the game.
no

I liked it a lot! My only issue is that the scares became predictable, and it took some of the fear value away from it. Other than hat, good job!
all your games are awsome alex, btw did u know itch.io has a discord :)
Survival Horror для русских пацанов!!!

can you please make it for mac.
I am looking into it, I only have a PC.
Hopefuly you can make it.

I never played a game with this concept. You use possession to defeat a demon. It's awesome, it's unique, and it's fresh. Check it out!

Really creative game. I love the mechanics of using other people to survive.
Honestly I like the controls. It's different and adds an element to master. :)
