I was definitely frustrated at times but I still love it. Great use of ambiance and music to fill in dread and I can totally feel the Siren and Resident Evil inspirations.
Good horror game.Really I noticed great inspirations in the classic PSX games. It was a good decision, as I like the horror classics. Congratulations on your game.
I finished this game and honestly, I have to say I really like this style and I LOVE the art and music you guys made for the game. It has a nice aesthetic and I really think this game is gun.
(mac) It says I don't have permission to use it, I tried following manuals, videos, instructions, the actual mac guide, but i couldnt get it to open, please help!!
aaahh!! its not an unidentified developer thing, i know how to fix that !! its this thing!! im the only administrator ,, i tried to follow the mac os guide butttttt it wasnt working, but thank you for trying and if u figure it out notify me !! <3
Is there anyway to fullscreen? I want to play it on my native resolution of 1920x1080... but for some reason it shows black bars on the sides for me :(
Well the game is fully playable...but like I said, the pillarbox thing when going to full screen on 1920x1080 makes it so half 1/4 of the screen is black on either side :(
Hi Otomon, tech lead here, I just wanted to give an explanation wrt why we don't support other aspect ratios. To put it simply, the boundaries of the camera change if you change aspect ratios, so things which should be off-camera would be visible. That might not be a big deal for an FPS, but for a fixed-cam horror game it can really effect pacing, suspense and combat.
(as an aside, this is one of the reasons why the HD Silent Hill remasters aren't as good as the originals: the change to 16:9 gave you much better visibility than the game was designed to have, and often made the camera angles uglier and less effective)
But! We could add an option to stretch the screen horizontally (sorta like when you play GameBoy games on a GameBoy Advance) if that seems like it would improve your experience. The characters would all look short and stubby though lol. But if that's a feature people want I'm happy to add it in the next update :)
Hey there, shoutouts to Big Flan. I really enjoyed this game and took the time to read some of these comments now that I've finished the game. I don't think this game is too difficult, as a matter of fact, I think it's just right in that department. My only real nitpicky issues are that the game is too short for there to be mechanics involving gun repair and workbenches. In my opinion (which I know you didn't ask for, sorry!), I believe gun jamming should remain, but that there should be a way to clear the jam without going to a bench. The entire first run through gives you more than enough ammo to make it through the entire game but I think my gun jammed within the first 20 shots. I also wish you would have let me shoot the Devil or the Source in the face, but I understand the time constraint you guys had so no issues there for me either.
Overall, thanks for making this and letting us play it. I'm going to follow you guys and I expect to see even greater stuff! Thanks again!
hi! sorry you're encountering issues with the mac build. could you be more specific about the issue you're encountering? as mentioned in the description, the build is not notarized and without some extra steps it won't run.
This is one of the coolest indie horror games that I've played! It really felt like I was playing Silent Hill 1 or the classic Resident Evils. Of course, I had to cheat because I kept getting bodied lol. This is a hidden gem though! I made a 3-part series.
Cool short game overall, the setup is good and tense. I love the fact that characters are already menacing so when they turn on you, you begin to think about EVERYONE you've encountered so far that you'll now have to kill/evade and that was stressful.(I really freaked when I realized I had to go through the cafeteria again) I ran into a few bugs (fell out of world, blocked by stairs geometry) some of the paths where not easy to find.The controls are ok overall but OH BOY did I needed the cheats! I feel like the gun jamming is more or less a death sentence: there's WAY too many spots where you'll simply end up in front of a barrage of enemies you simply CAN'T get through (do people actually finish this without cheats?) I think the gun jamming is not a bad idea and adds lots of tension but it could have been for just a few pulls of the trigger or make you waste a magazine instead imo
This was an excellent game! Short and simple, but the buildup was great, controls were smooth, I love the minimal approach to the storytelling. So glad I got it!

Wish there was a sequel or another game set in this universe, this game has an interesting lore and background.
What a game this was; highly impressed.
Short and sweet. With an intriguing story that left me wanting more.
Everything is executed masterfully, and what amazing camera angles.
We need to see more from this world.

big sur 11.6
im sorry if you've already gone over this, but is https://support.apple.com/en-ph/guide/mac-help/mh40616/11.0/mac/11.0 at all useful? otherwise i'm not entirely sure myself, as i've no experience with how running unsigned apps works anymore in macOS
aaahh!! its not an unidentified developer thing, i know how to fix that !! its this thing!! im the only administrator ,, i tried to follow the mac os guide butttttt it wasnt working, but thank you for trying and if u figure it out notify me !! <3
Nice game!✌✌

the game will only run in 4:3 resolutions, and will pillarbox if using widescreen monitors.
Ah dam... thats too bad, heard great things about the game but its currently unplayable on my monitor, maybe u can add a "cheat" to allow widescreen?
sorry are you having an actual technical issue when trying to fullscreen or are you just annoyed it's 4:3
Well the game is fully playable...but like I said, the pillarbox thing when going to full screen on 1920x1080 makes it so half 1/4 of the screen is black on either side :(

Hi there!
The Gameplay Trailer is amazing, but the MAC version is NOT working (I'm on macOS Catalina 10.15.7)
