Although not super scary I remember when sonic exe first existed. Compared to todays horror games its not that scary.

I turned the volume up to 1 and still went deaf to this gorgeous sound, these animations and gameplay are just amazing, I hope the game will blow your mind

I'm not a big horror person, hell anything remotely close to horror scares me haha but I did my best to pull through. For some reason I couldn't get past the final boss even after pushing the health down to 0 (but reading the comments, I see there's a flying Koopa I also needed to beat). 

It's clear how much effort went into this, and your passion is telling; keep going! 

(just...don't do horror games for my poor heart. i kid, I kid) 

Also, concerning the flying Koopa, I think it's because it's own Health bar was not clear to see, maybe that's why some of us didn't know it needed to be attacked too.

I have to honestly admit I found it kind of funny… even though I’m strictly against license violations. And I also have to say, the game could have been much better without Mario or Luigi and with its own original idea. The foundation is good, but I’m not sure why you’d lean on such well-known genres and characters. Original ideas would have been a lot better.
The atmosphere is good and the gameplay is solid, but the jump sound only plays when you release the button, which feels kind of wrong. If the assets and sounds were changed, the game would honestly have been a real gem for me… I really mean that.

This brings me back to the old days, where I was so into creepypastas I was scared to run any file that said .exe because I thought that meant it was haunted. Fun throwback with interesting ideas brought into it, and really captured the vibe of those old games that used to scare me! I think it would benefit from a lot of polish, like in moments where the enemies are talking to you, the music would be constantly looping with each change of dialogue, and the dialogue boxes would stack on top of each other so I couldn't even read the text. I think the fights were fun, and it genuinely had a decently spooky atmosphere at times. Great job and keep at it!

Liked the animations and dialog(:

It was a fun chase, but I'm stuck in this boss fight T ^ T

Developer(+1)

Oh okay.. So some people ( not everyone.. Like 20% people ) seem to get stuck or confused on this part.. And by looking at it.. You didn't do anything wrong or get stuck.. You just didn't kill other ( the frying koopa ) on the left side.. That why the lighting still shoot at  you on the left side.. You see.. In the second boss fight.. You have to finish off 2 frying koopa on both sides.. The left side and right side.. And then you can continue playing this game.. And get 3 endings.. You don't have to if you don't want to.. But I hope this helps out :)

Never stop creating what you love, I believe in you

Spooky, not a big fan of horror myself but enjoyed nonetheless.

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

To be honest , the graphics are kinda weird but the gameplay is really satisfaying . Also Goombas hurt a lot even if you jump on it and the bosses are pretty difficult to fight but it was fun and I enjoy difficulty so it's great .

Nice work on your game! I did struggle to kill the second boss as even though his health reached zero, he didn't seem to die and when I got too close, I died myself. However, I did enjoy playing! :) 

Developer

I am not sure if this bug or not. But by listening your words.. It Dosen't sound like a bug.. You might hurt enemies ( frying koopa ) shield bar ( the Grey bar ) instead.. If this is the case.. Then you didn't kill it completely.. You need to destroy the shield first.. And then kill it.. Same goes with other koopa on other side.. And try to stay away from them little bit.. To avoid getting hurt.. If you did exactly that i said.. You should continue play the game perfectly fine.. I don't know if it was obvious or not.. But Regardless.. I hope this helps :)
