A neat little game. Even without the usual things trying to scare me [jump-startles, sound FX, 'scary' music, etc.], this game comes with a strong atmo of its own. And it's just because of the lack of the aforementioned, that CRUX becomes interesting. I have a tendency to turn to the right [in games]. In hindsight, it looks like I should have checked out the fire first, but I'm not sure if that would have been of any significance . The game ran smooth, with no visible bugs or other hiccups. I thoroughly enjoyed playing it. Well done.


Personally, as a writer, I would have placed the town/forest somewhere. Below is an example of how I would have written the intro to the game [not that you have to do something similar. This is meant to help you, not criticize you];


"Chloe is a private investigator, who lives in a long faded away town, known as Crux. A place close to the [southern] border with Mexico. Tonight, she is working on the open cases of various missing locals, who all have one thing in common; they went missing in the nearby Crux Forest.

People who live around there, claim that paranormal events occur during most nights. The town’s police detective, Pranav, called her to investigate the strange phenomenon, as he is too busy trying to solve two recent murder cases, that eat up all of his time.

In order to collect visual evidence, she brought along a camera, to record her nightly endeavor."

Deeply thankful for the input. I was amazed by your comment, coming from a person, who does a little writing, your suggestion is gold. Thank you! I am trying to build up more story driven games and your feedback for more than helpful. Definitely doing better next time, I promise.

@ Niven Hedinger,


You're welcome, Niven. 

Check out my Amazon link [stories] and the link to My Free Music [on my channel] and if you like/want, we can work together and come up with a game that's something different.

I like your approach and am willing to invest time and effort into getting you help things done.

I prefer synergetic [work] environments in which the only goal is to make progress and turn whatever is at hand, into a win-win situation for all involved.

Whatever you choose, I'm on your side.

Kudos to you, good sir.

Thank you so much Sir! 
I do have your info and contacts and will see, for sure. I am very humbled with the offer. For now, I am doing something else, but if I get back with the games, I sure will contact you. Thanks. 

@ Niven Hedinger,

Sure. Take your time. Everything in life should be done at the right moment. Even if we aren't aware when that moment has arrived or passed us by.

"Rationalization tends to be the last refuge of desperation, but then again, I am desperate to understand the rationale behind everything." - DR

Well said, Sir.
