I really like it! But I hit a bug. Second time I was supposed to talk to Emily I could not find her at all. I would love to finish the game tho!

EDIT: I restarted the game! I honestly really like it! Love the end

I enjoyed this game quite a bit. The music was really catchy, and I absolutely love the character models you used and the way they move so fluidly. If I have one critique, I would add some more sound effects (for picking up the trash, going through the bead doors, ect...). But overall very strong!

I'm a sucker for in-game cinematics/events so I really liked the ending, if not a bit abrupt as it cut to the main menu. Some textures like the skybox were a bit too low in resolution and the walking speed was a bit too slow...then again someone said the walking speed for my game was too fast so maybe I'm in the wrong haha

But overall I really liked this one!

I didn't have time to play the game until the end, but from what I saw it is cool! Great job! It looks like a full-on game. I like the old-school aesthetic and the vibe. Oh and I noticed you can enter the bathroom from the outside. You can put an easter egg there if you'd like hah.

Nice camera work at the ending. I also appreciate how Door Guy was creepier than the guy literally named Creepy Guy.

Ok played it for real this time. I liked it a lot =D

Good stuff: an actual story/progression of events instead of just find 5 pages. Lot of work put into making the club and all of that (i know that you used some assets, but still), eerie atmosphere on the parking lot ;p

Bad stuff: kinda cheesy/b-class horror plot =D Player movement could be a bit faster ;p

Unique setting for a horror game! Must say the track that's playing in the club had me grooving along. I unfortunately uncounted a problem - when I was meant to take the trash outside, my mission said "Talk to Emily" but I was unable to find her, after dumping the rubbish in the bin the game told me to go back inside, however I couldn't hit the trigger to progress the story. Would love to see how the story unfolds!

Sorry you ran into that bug! Ran out of time to do too much debugging, but we plan on working on it more in the future so we'll keep an eye out for this issue and make sure it gets fixed.
