Immersive atmosphere, an adventurous and creepy tone with the elements of suspense and exceptional gameplay, yet still not as good as your first game.
Starting with the negatives, there was an issue with sound. I kept putting the volume up and all the effects were just minimal. Once I put the volume down, everything was gone, so I had to keep my volume as high as possible. Like with the first game, I will say again - No Motion Blur. I am not against using it in the higher res games, but it doesn't suit the PSX style and really struggles to perform well. The optimization with this one was bad compare to your previous game, although tolerable enough to finish the game and find the second ending. And finally, I wasn't a huge fan of the way a character was directed to look for stuff in the room, then go to another room and suddenly the previous room changes, but that's a subjective matter.
As for the positives, the game shines and immerses the player deeply using an exceptionally build environment and atmosphere. The sound design (not including the volume bug) was so believable and the forest looked gorgeous. I could wonder around it for hours. The story seemed really direct and ominous, giving more creepy vibes and the traditional horror vibe. Overall, I think this is a great entry with some flaws that can be easily fixed.
Best of luck with the future games Vuk. Hope to see something fresh and different next time as well.
Thanks for commenting and compliments, and massive thanks for feedback regarding the bugs, I'll check the sound thing as it probably isn't a big deal to fix,regarding level design, you are right, I guess I just wanted to have player long enough in the house to be able to let's say "appreciate" work I've put into models and textures and stuff.Regarding motion blur I haven't added any and I'm really not sure why does it looks like there is, probably some dithering artifact or something I'm really not sure and I'm going to look for solution, and again, thank you very much! My game development journey probably wouldn't even go anywhere if it wasn't for you and your video on the first game, and thank you for it! And I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it as much as the first one, all the best.
You are very generous, thank you for providing us with great content. I really liked this one and I did enjoy myself, like I said, I prefer the first game, but that doesn't take away the credit from this one. I think you have a huge potential and I am eagerly waiting for the next game, which will be awesome.
