the art is cool and the setting is eerie. i like it. it seems faithful to Silent Hill, from what i understand via cultural osmosis.
the controls seem faithful. i didn't mind them, but i don't think they added much either.
some sounds, like enemies screaming, are way too loud and hurt my ears :(
the game is pretty buggy.
- i fell through the floor and had to refresh the browser page.
- i randomly died after finishing a fight.
at first, i felt very weak in combat -- on my second life, i realized that i could circle around enemies and then they felt harmless.
i felt confused a lot of the time.
- how do i solve this puzzle?
- what is happening?
- where am i supposed to go?
i feel like the basis or foundation is very good! and the game just needs some tweaking with physics collisions and combat.
overall, i think that the experience is visually pleasant and i like the visuals the most. the monster designs are cool. the environments are nice and crunchy.
