I think it's incredible how faithful this games feels to to something like the original silent hill games. It legitimately feels like I'm just playing a new Silent Hill. Amazing job in that department. There's so much to like that I feel bad for even criticism at all. I think the first lock puzzle needs to start with the hint. I was stuck for a while because I had no idea that addition was necessary. The only other puzzle I didn't like is the statue turning one. I still don't even know what the answer is, I just mashed them randomly for a while until I accidentally got it right. The last criticism is that the combat feels very janky.
Other than that though, this is awesome! I definitely had more of a positive experience overall. I know this may not be representative of the final product but man, what you have here is really something. You nailed the early silent hill aesthetics. Can't wait to see the full game, good luck!
