I'm not the kinda guy to go negative easily. The first 2 minutes I had a ball, went to bed, dreamed, woke up and then had to lay there for 5 minutes doing fvck all, just wanting to end the game ASAP. It didn't.

What were you thinking...?

The way it is now, I won't recommend anyone to play/buy this game, because it sucks.

Yours is the first game [in almost 1,000 I've played over the years] to get this negative comment.

Based upon the first 2 minutes, you've got the talent to do great things. I sincerely hope you let your imagination do the work for you.

I get you, to each his own. Some people liked it, some people didn't. I can't please everyone and I'm not trying to. This was intended to be a demo/concept, but I decided to make it a full episode. You do "fuck all" in the bed scene because it's sleep paralysis and I wanted it to be "realistic". Not everything needs to be instant gratification/a few seconds tiktok video.

Thanks for playing anyway. Maybe the second episode will be up to your standards.

@ ACID,

Indeed, to each his own. I'm just extremely busy, so when I play a game, I want to move on as quickly as possible. I get the idea of sleep paralysis, but while twiddling with my thumbs [doing nothing], I can see all the work that's waiting next to the screen [you can see the shelves behind me, that are loaded as a result of that], so that creates a feeling of unease [not because you want to], that has nothing to do with the game.

You don't have to deviate from your standards because, like you said yourself, it is imply impossible to create something that pleases everybody.

Good luck with Chapter 2 [serious] :o]

Well I am still very new to this stuff, I have a lot to learn. It's a process.

Thank you for the encouragement.
