Hi, thanks more for rating One Way Out, your game is very cool too! We're going to release One Way Out in steam and we'd really appreciate it if you could help us refine the game. Please write in the comments under the game what you can add or fix... You will help us a lot with this)

looks cool fellow UE5 dev, adding a push back increase over time or as you pick up something will make they game really fun just splattering enemies on the wall at the end lol

Developer(+2)

Yep could definitely improve that one and add more to it, and will do, thanks for the feedback!

surviving to 5 minutes must be really hard! i only managed to survive 1 by running in circles around the central pillar thing Xd i like some of the small details the game has, like adding dogs instead of just robots, and the ironic fact that the robots try to heal you by hugging you, but that actually makes it worse and more painful xd.

i don’t know if my problem is that common, but the truth is that it would have been much better to have a quality setting, where the highest would make the game use DirectX12, and the lowest DirectX11 (although yay i can now play other unreal games on the jam ^^)

First of all thanks for playing and trying the game out!
Yeah, we got this feedback multiple times and we realized it ourselves after releasing the game, we will definitely work on making the game shorter and easier, even add more variety and better feedback, since that was just the prototype. 
Sorry you had to deal with this, will make it more accessible so everyone can play without issues!

Actually got around to play this one. Simple yet fun. It's more difficult than I thought but that's good!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking it out! Yeah, we know it's a bit too difficult and long, we wanted to tweak it, but by the time we realized, it was a bit too late. Still, glad you found it fun, and thanks for trying it out!

Fun concept and nice execution! I would have enjoyed having more feedback as to how close you start to get damaged in order to time my pushes better, but it’s still a fun mechanic that gets super chaotic as more robots start to spawn. Well done!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, you're right. We'll definitely keep that in mind for future. Thanks for trying it out!

Feedback on hugging/being hugged could use some work. The game otherwise felt good to play and looked solid.

Developer(+1)

Noted. Thanks for playing and for the feedback!
