WOW COOL GAME, i really liked the voice acting and the post processing might be the best horror game i ever played in this game jam :D

Keep this Nice work up!

Submitted

Damn I got scared, :D Nice game! It’s polished, for sure! it felt like a nice stanley parable but with horror-survival theme. I can’t for sure say anything negative, though it was hard to know what to do once out of the path, I found a note and I could not understand what to do with that knowledge… and then I died, and tried again without finding the note.

It would have been easier if I had more batteries while running away: though, should I have picked them up before leaving the path?

In any case: well done in 7 days, my review is positive overall :)

The narration really made it for me! Immediately made me want to do the opposite of what the voice tells, well done!
Overall, very neat little game, very reminiscent of 2010's indie horror titles. I enjoyed it a lot.

Submitted

I love the voice acting! It's an engaging game with humor. When I retry, it reminds me that I lost my last attempt, saying, 'You are a bad player!', ROFL!

Submitted

I like the atmosphere!

I really like the voice acting in the game. It adds a lot to the immersion and gives off a bit of that 'Stanley Parable' vibe, guiding the player to do things outside of the rules. 

The gameplay is simple but fits the theme perfectly. Really nice game.

Submitted

1- Controls are smooth, so are animations. I felt game is watching me all the time. It felt like stanley parable

2- I felt shocked when the road went missing. Good move.

3- The game keeps communicating with the player. I answered questions when ı died. Thats immersive.

4- I finished the game 3 times. First, I died second ı got back to home third I died again. The sound when monster comes is impressive, but flashlight battery is so weak. It is out of battery in a minute. I killed the monster with flashlight once but second ı couldn't do it even ı pressed letf mouse button. 

5- When you leave the road a little it disappears immediately maybe to be a bit realistic it would be better if after a while it disappears.

6- Voice acting is amazing. But I didn't like that guy ı think he is a scumbag :=)

Good work guys, congrats!

Really great graphics , felt pacing was a bit slow , but overall 10/10.

Submitted

Love the humor, love the aesthetic, you nailed it. 

Submitted

Yo.. this is really REALLY good! Voice lines are perfect. The idea is simple yet super effective. Baddie is scary. I'm a fan! You should totally keep developing this. Really glad i played it. Great job!

Submitted

The "are you sure?" text reassuring my decision to try again twice is hilarious. 

Feels polished and very impressive for only a week of work. Well done!

Submitted

Okay, i really should have stayed on the path! I love the art style of this so much. Great job! 

Submitted

Art Style is good and Post Process Effects Also Great Game!

Submitted

i like post-processing effects, really cool game

Submitted
