I will be honest, it was a interesting game and i see what you were trying to do but as an experienced horror gameplayer it wasn't too scary at all, but as this is a demo I SEE ALL the things it could become! Keep working on the game :)
In fact, I was very inspired by Re and wanted to make it similar in atmosphere, but as for the location of the rooms, they make little sense. This is a maze with a simple task to get out of the house, I'll try to finish the rest
Obviously, there was not a lot to see in the demo, but it creates this amazing tension and you expect something to happen all the time. I was literally scaring myself... I loved it! Keep going on - fix the bugs, add stuff - and it's gonna be a pretty decent game! Thank you!
Hola Drevja, lo siento si no te gustó el juego. Visite este proyecto más tarde, habrá actualizaciones frecuentes y ¡puede cambiar de opinión! Que tenga un lindo día
Really enjoyed this game, just a couple of things that stuck out to me, but I talk about it at the end of my playthrough if you would like to check it out!
Overall a good start! Not a bad experience, but it definitely could use some polish. There's a lot to say, so I'd appreciate it if you'd check out the video. I might come off a little harsh in my dialogue, but in the end, I wish the best for your game. I understand how hard making a game can be, as I have made some myself. Keep working at it!
By the looks of the screenshots your game looked nice, but unfortunately, I got a little disappointed.
As a player, you basically only have to go through hallways reading notes and collecting keys.
When I got to the numpad without knowing the combination I stopped playing. Usually I don’t give up on games.
I have written some feedback for you. This is my personal opinion. I hope you can use some of it.
Pros
The game was running smooth.
I didn’t encounter any bugs.
Cons
The drag system to open doors was a little annoying. I would suggest only to use the “E” to open. And then let the door stay open afterwards, unless someone haunts the house and closes them of course.
Every room looked the same. Very monotonous experience for the player.
No backstory. Why is the player in the house and what’s his purpose?
The radios were very loud. And I could hear them all over the house. I suggest you make some audio zones. So, the player only can hear the audio, when he’s in the zone. The sound effects are definitely something you can work with. Perhaps some creaking floors, whispers, footsteps etc. You should try and make them spawn randomly around the player.
Also, some ambience audio such as music to play in the background.
The jumpscares were misplaced. It seems like they were only there because it’s a horror game. I suggest you make some creepy tension at first, then put in jumpscares later on. I know this is hard. I’m struggling with this myself.
I’m curious to know about your plans for the game. And I would love to play again, when you have developed some more content.
Hi Aces Games, I am very glad that you liked the game and that you appreciated it.
As for the points that you described.
1. This is a door opening system, you ask me, but this system was immediately calculated and so conceived for the game, I will not change it.
2. This game is a demo and I will try to make the world more interactive.
3. The background has been made so far for show, but this is also planned.
4. Sound from the radio, this is unfortunately a bug. But I'm already trying to fix it!
5. Sorry, but I don't agree with you here either, I specifically asked my friends to test these jumps in almost all places, and we made a general decision that they were chosen well.
Thanks for your feedback, it is really very helpful. Thank you
Good Demo, but not too scary in my opinion. I hope it will be even scarier when Full Game comes out.
For the key, highlight it so it’s easy to see and The location of the game it is better not to be similar to the Baker Main House. Ooh, to open the door I hope don’t drag it but just press one button to do it, this is better.
But I still enjoyed, I like the Controller Support, Great work!
Disclaimer: I played the game before the 0.2 update. The game looks and sounds nice. I appreciate the controller support and how the controls function in the game. The second jump scare got me pretty good.
If you plan on making the game longer, it might benefit from a sprint button. The dark hallway behind the red light was extremely dark and I couldn't really see. Maybe, a flashlight could be added or it could be lightened up?
I totally derped on the code lock trying to reset it thought, lol. That was all me though and not an issue with the game!
Overall, I enjoyed the demo and I think it has the potential to turn into a really great game. Keep up the good work, dev!
This was a great demo! There are definitely things that could be added to make it feel more unique, but for what it is, this is a very enjoyable experience! Great work!
Hello Adrioniс, I am very glad that you played the game and you liked it, I am watching your channel and thought that you missed my letter. Thanks again for such a great video!
Played this yesterday, I can now see that you're planning on updating again soon so I shall deffo be revisiting. Really enjoyed it, creeped me out a little bit, I'm looking forward to the final product! The atmosphere was fantastic and the graphics are fabulous, I did have to turn them down from ultra to high cos it started lagging a little bit, but I don't mind that! I would love there to be more jumpscares, is the scary looking monster lookinmg thing in your picture going to come into play? Because that would be insane!!
Hey Micheal, I enjoyed playing the game it was very fun to play through. There was some glitches such as when I was reading the notes and pressed escape I couldn’t move I wasn’t too sure what caused it. Then some of the tiles on ceilings weren’t lined up. I enjoyed the attention to detail, and how well the game played through. I can’t wait to see more keep up the great work.
Hey Michael! Thanks so much for making this game, I honestly had fun exploring the house and getting scared of the jumspcares! Real quality graphics, sounds and reactions in this game. So much potential for a DEMO. I left a bit of feedback on your game in my gameplay below:
Sorry guys, but starting February 24th the game won't be free of charge. On February 24 at 0:00 I will change the monetization feature of Brad, now the game will cost $ 4.99 and now I will explain why.
I work alone and I need resources to develop all my ideas and show more people ideas. If you buy the game, I can make a page on Steam, buy resources for higher quality and have more energy to develop the game. In return for the purchase of the game you will immediately receive a key when it comes out on steam, you do not have to buy again. I will add to the credits everyone who bought the game on the "Demo" status.
Don't get me wrong, I want to make Ravings better and without you it will be very difficult. Thanks to everyone who left and leaves feedback on Ravings, whether you like the game or not, it is very valuable to me. You are best!
In honor of the fact that the game is now paid, but some do not have the opportunity to buy, I will give 30 Ravings keys on my Twitter to those who subscribe to me. Immediately after subscribing, you will receive an instant key.
If we collect $ 100, I immediately launch the page on steam
Updates will continue to be released, but with a slight delay.
Hi Mike! I wanted to express my gratitude and thanks for having made this and for reaching out to me to play it. I can't wait to see more from this game and your future projects. Thank you again for the hard work and much love!
That's still good to hear. I wish you the best in their completion. You've done well with the details and the quality so far. I can tell you are going to make even more accomplishments!
This game was very good and it made me jump quite a bit. I encountered one bug when I got stuck in the door. But other than that it was a pretty solid game and scary!
Maybe add an info section, I don’t want to watch a video and ruin the game for myself but Downloading the game just to see what it’s about (like a story, Who am I, Where am I, What is happening?) would be nice before a download.
Hello Andy Arachne, there is no such plot. I made a couple of sketches inside the game in the form of notes and that's it, in the future I will try to write a script and make it better.
As for the informational section, I will try to do it, but I do not promise :)
Hello dear Andy Arachne, thanks for giving me 5 stars, I am now very grateful to you for that!
As for the errors that you wrote in the review, I will try to fix it, it will take a long time to go over Ravings with a file to bring it to normal quality.
Thank you again for telling and appreciating the game, this is very important to me!
This was really good! I really liked this game and think it has a lot of potential! It took me a bit to find the flashlight. After i did it went pretty smoothly i liked the battery system a lot of newer games don't have that and i think it can cause some panic in horror games when your running out and don't have replacements. I liked the atmosphere and setting a lot and it had a good story for whats here so far! it took me a bit to find the key but it wasn't the games fault. (i have colorblindness >.>) The jumpscares were well placed in moments where i was lulled into a false sense of security and then it would hit me hard! I would say to make the battery system work a bit better maybe have the battery's glow in the dark a bit? With the way the flashlights worked it was hard to see them on the desk. Heres my playthrough if you wanna see!
Friendly suggestions: end the demo with a bang, make it memorable. Also do something with the note templates, either remove them or blank them out or something, I understand its an early build of a demo but that did break immersion for me pretty badly. And the flashlight shouldn't have batteries or maybe at least warn the player that it drains and doesn't have battery replacements.
Hello dear mrguderian, thanks for the tips on finalizing the game. I will accept these facts and try to make the game better. A bit of a controversial point with a flashlight, of course, but thanks anyway for the advice, it's really important!
Well done!. This game honestly might have had the most well placed jumpscares that I haver ever seen in any horror game and if it's not number one then it's at least very close. I loved the graphics and thought it looked beautiful. It was very creepy and made me feel very uneasy in a way that most other games don't especially not short walk through games like this but this was super well done for so many reasons. If you are able to come out with the full version of this game I will definitely be interested in playing it.
Hello dear EdgeMuffin, thank you for such strong and kind words. Not expected!
I tried very hard on this project and am very glad that you liked it, the full version is planned, but it is very difficult to do it with high quality, I think you understand.

Had fun with this one XD thanks for developing this! Here's my playthrough:
Hello JokiGAME, I'm glad you liked the game, you are great!
iwas suppose to make a vid before but i couldnt find the flashlight but after another try i found it...great job making the game everything was good
Hello lucidthasensei thanks for playing Ravings, this is very important
I will be honest, it was a interesting game and i see what you were trying to do but as an experienced horror gameplayer it wasn't too scary at all, but as this is a demo I SEE ALL the things it could become! Keep working on the game :)
Hello LeMuffinGamer, thanks for the great video, you are the best
The Demo 0.2 for Mac din't run in my macOS Mojave. Is Catalina or Big Sur needed?
Edit: I forgot to add execution rights to the executable... all zipped apps need to.
I'm glad you went through the installation!
This was a WHOLE lot of fun! I had an amazing time! My only bit of feedback is to have an actual ending but I loved it! I hope you enjoy my video :D
Hello CKob, I'm glad that the project was fun, this is one of the most important feelings that I try to achieve!
Why is the dining room/kitchen/living room and some hallway layout so close to being identical to the RE7 baker residence?
Good question)
In fact, I was very inspired by Re and wanted to make it similar in atmosphere, but as for the location of the rooms, they make little sense. This is a maze with a simple task to get out of the house, I'll try to finish the rest
Obviously, there was not a lot to see in the demo, but it creates this amazing tension and you expect something to happen all the time. I was literally scaring myself... I loved it! Keep going on - fix the bugs, add stuff - and it's gonna be a pretty decent game! Thank you!
Hello ThatRussianGamerGuy, thanks for your positive feedback, it's very important.
Update coming soon!
Kidding aside, I think this game still needs more polishing.
but, for its alpha state I couldn't blame it.
perdí 40 minutos de mi vida, quiero que me los devuelva.

Hello KendoGunSop, thanks for your positive feedback. I will accept your wishes, but I do not promise that I will change everything.

Hi Lady Random, there is a sprint in the game like a flashlight, but the flashlight is simply not very good location and few people found it
Thanks for the great comment, I am very pleased
Great job!
Thanks for letting me know, I totally missed the flashlight and sprint button.
This was a great demo! There are definitely things that could be added to make it feel more unique, but for what it is, this is a very enjoyable experience! Great work!
Hello Adrioniс, I am very glad that you played the game and you liked it, I am watching your channel and thought that you missed my letter. Thanks again for such a great video!

I would love there to be more jumpscares, is the scary looking monster lookinmg thing in your picture going to come into play? Because that would be insane!!
Keep up the great work!
Here's my playthrough :)
Hello Sashtopia, thank you for such warm and pleasant words, I am very pleased!

Thank you for such a cool video, I really liked it, keep it up!
New update is coming my friends! Prepare your gamepads and mice, it will be hot🔥
Hey Micheal, I enjoyed playing the game it was very fun to play through.

Hi J-BAIR, unfortunately you played the old version. There were many shortcomings in it, but I'm still glad that you really liked it. That's cool!
Hey Michael! Thanks so much for making this game, I honestly had fun exploring the house and getting scared of the jumspcares! Real quality graphics, sounds and reactions in this game. So much potential for a DEMO. I left a bit of feedback on your game in my gameplay below:

Hello dear Leoharp, I am very glad that you responded to my letter and decided to play Ravings. You are the best!
I am glad to have been able to experience and feel free to let me know whenever you make more projects!
So far, no new projects are planned, I want to complete Ravings and The Last Survivor!
That's still good to hear. I wish you the best in their completion. You've done well with the details and the quality so far. I can tell you are going to make even more accomplishments!
It will be a very long and thorny path, thank you for believing in me and always supporting me, this is very valuable to me! :)
Is this available in VR? This is what VR is made for in my opinion. Take the fear factor +5
Hello dear LordHill, I dream of making a horror vr, but unfortunately I don't have such large resources for creating a vr.
if I was well off, I would help lol, unfortunately I'm in the same boat.
Keep up the good work buddy.. Gained a follower
Hahaha, thank you!
This game was very good and it made me jump quite a bit. I encountered one bug when I got stuck in the door. But other than that it was a pretty solid game and scary!
Hello dear Nastronaut, thanks for such kind words, I will definitely try to solve the bug with the door, if it was not just an accident.
Regards Michael Derek
Really liked the game, I did scream a lot, but I am a big baby. But yeah super enjoyed this, can't wait for more.:D
Thank you for your feedback, I will improve the game!

Creepy atmosphere nice game
Hello tamturk, thanks for playing the game, I like it :)
wow new update already! nice game btw here my video, sorry late. Subscribe my channel ^_^
Hello NexusRed91, thanks for uploading the video, you are on time!
I will definitely subscribe!
But unfortunately you played the old version. Better go through, you will not regret it
Maybe add an info section, I don’t want to watch a video and ruin the game for myself but Downloading the game just to see what it’s about (like a story, Who am I, Where am I, What is happening?) would be nice before a download.
Hello Andy Arachne, there is no such plot. I made a couple of sketches inside the game in the form of notes and that's it, in the future I will try to write a script and make it better.
As for the informational section, I will try to do it, but I do not promise :)
I hope I can help you with something else?
I have big plans for Ravings and I take into account everyone's opinion about the game and what should be added / removed. Regards MIchael Derek
That was mostly it, I have it downloaded but plan on playing it later after breakfast and I take the dog out and such,
Great news, I will be looking forward to your review!
Hello dear Andy Arachne, thanks for giving me 5 stars, I am now very grateful to you for that!
As for the errors that you wrote in the review, I will try to fix it, it will take a long time to go over Ravings with a file to bring it to normal quality.
Thank you again for telling and appreciating the game, this is very important to me!
Can you change the door opening? I don't like the drag way. Just pressing E button would be nice
Also when starting game change 0.1 to 0.2
Hello about dragging the door, sorry but no, I personally really like it :)
Thanks for the indicated error, I will definitely fix it
Hah, thanks. And remember, I'm still waiting for you! ;)
This was really good! I really liked this game and think it has a lot of potential! It took me a bit to find the flashlight.

Hello dear Maskly, thank you for such a great and pleasant review. I am always glad when they appreciate your craft;)
As for the flashlight, I made them really very dim, oh what can't you do for the sake of the atmosphere of horror!
Thanks again for such nice words, I appreciate it!
Friendly suggestions: end the demo with a bang, make it memorable. Also do something with the note templates, either remove them or blank them out or something, I understand its an early build of a demo but that did break immersion for me pretty badly. And the flashlight shouldn't have batteries or maybe at least warn the player that it drains and doesn't have battery replacements.

Hello TsukuruHouse, thanks for playing the demo. I am very grateful for that!
As for the flashlight, you probably run out of batteries.
