10/10

Developer

Thank you!!

My second all 5-star game of the jam! congratulations!

Really cool visuals, I love what you did with the pixel art. It's hard to portray a horror vibe with that so well done! The SFX are great, gameplay is great as well! Feels very well-made and balanced, and I think you could publish this for money after the jam, and the guys in black? just little guys wanting a hug. 

top marks! 

Developer

Omg thank you so much I appreciate it a lot!

Submitted

I know you aplied the theme in the narrative, but it is also when you run away from the monster! Nice ending!

Submitted

Super scary work with the sound design and environment! Other than the points I've already seen everywhere else in the comments, the game makes me wish that the camera was just a bit farther back or had a wider angle so that I could better appreciate the depth and "foreverness" of the darkness surrounding me. Overall my jeebies are heebied.

Having the monster move faster than you was evil! Tense game, I kept dying. Excellent atmosphere, you balanced the music, artstyle, effects and gameplay to create a very spooky effect

Developer

Thank you!! I will def make the game easier next time lol

Just wow! That art is just incredible, I've never really seen pixel art with that style and palette but MAN does it work, so good! The player and monster design are just incredible, UI is great, love the spinning key UI! Forest environment and cabin interior were very pretty too, I really wonder how you even make this, the ending cutscene in the cabin went hard and the one eye being shut when firing the gun, very nice detail, the main menu and well ending art is also extremely pretty, sound design is great but the gameplay does leave a little to be desired, juking a shadow demon's lanky legs is not particularly the horror experience I expected but the initial arrival of it was very cool! Excellent work!

thank you so much!! i appreciate the comment :)

darkly beautiful, i loved the drawings you would find scattered around ! the setting of the endless forest also really added to the sense of anxiety while playing, i personally have this fear of being lost in vast spaces and this rly hit that xdd a scary and wonderful experience!

Developer

Thank you!!

pretty creepy, only problem is that the monster was more annoying to avoid than scary, its slightly faster than you so it makes avoiding it impossible, but i love the artstyle and the idea, the atmosphere is great

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

The atmosphere is good, makes your heart race when the monster is near you. However, I think avoiding the monster is pretty harder than it should be. Not that it should be easy, but kinda restricts your movement. And maybe adding some clues to where the keys are in some notes could be great, too. 

Developer

There is a clue in the first note! But thank you for the feedback anyways!

Submitted(+1)

Atmosphere and art are SO amazing, as the narration and endings! Just a greatly conveyed horror situation.

The only nitpick I have is with the creature; after an amazing first impression (and lasting impact whenever it leaves the screen to come back with its unnerving theme) it sticks to you like a fly... And kinda becomes annoying as one, too (/;o;\). Also recovering health after some time would be amazing imo.

Wonderful job!!!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!! I appreciate the feedback!

Well first of all you guys did a good job a liked the game but it seems very difficult to play to avoid the monster i found a way to run from it by mioving diagonal and he slows when i do that i can manage to run from it sometimes by standing behind object until he like crashes but just a few second he teleport to me so even trying harder isn't easy but i would say it is possible to win if i tried many times and dodges his moves it will need some concentration btw x) but anw good job bro <3

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

The horror atmosphere is pretty spot on, art design and atmosphere were great. Though  I think the "thin gentleman" reveal is a bit too early (in my opinion). Could keep the suspense a bit more, but dodging the man gets repetitive a bit.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I def will take note of that!

Submitted(+1)

Awesome little horror experience! I like that the ideal way to escape the monster is to "loop" around it also. I definitely wish the monster paused when looking at notes, like another commenter said.

Developer

Thank you!! 

Submitted(+1)

Great work on the art and atmosphere! I got both of the endings, but I think the notes you pick up should pause the monster or at least slow it down a bit. You only get a brief moment to look at them before it catches up to you again.

Developer

Thank you!! Will definetely do that in the final patch :)

Slenderman 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Very nice art and spooky atmosphere!

Developer

Thank you!

amazing art, very spooky atmosphere! the shadow killed me so quickly though, how do you not immediately die?

Developer

you have to dodge it instead of outrunning it!
