- I like the offbeat vibe of this unsettling game. There’s certainly the genesis of something really interesting here: a photographer that murders when he takes the literal shot. Finding a gameplay mechanic as a hook or broader narrative arc could really enliven this intriguing concept.

Very cool premise :) Nice usage of the render textures, very stylish visuals, and playing with camera felt fun. There was something strong about removing the BGM after completing the photoshoot. Enjoyed the voiceovers and the creepy dialog, but could definitely use some more ambient SFX. Very unique entry though, hope you get to extend upon this idea because I yearned for more models.
Wow, thank you for giving such detailed feedback. I seriously appreciate the thoughtfulness. I'm working on expanding this into a more complete game, and more ambient SFX is a great note.
Enjoyed my photoshot day out!
Glad to hear it, thanks for playing :)
Ok I need more! XD That was gloomy
More is in the works! Thanks for checking it out :)
Nice stuff, short and effective, love it !
Thanks for the kind words!
Awesome, love the twist and the aesthetics are absolutely fantastic. I love the detail of the screen shown through the camera (I was expecting a you-can-only-see-the-ghost-in-the-camera twist, but this was much more creative!). I actually was more scared AFTER the [spoiler] happened, it just felt really eerie and quiet and freaky. Great job!
Thank you so much! I was really hoping that the music cutoff after the player... "takes a portrait" would be spooky; I'm glad to hear that it was effective.
Very eerie atmosphere with a very unexpected outcome, felt like Albuquerque New Mexico.
funny you say that i actually pitched this to Vince Gilligan as a Breaking Bad spin-off game but he just kicked me out of his house and called the cops on me for "breaking and entering" :/
This is peak. A very short and simple twist. Just wished it was longer. (I CRAVE FOR MORE FRESH MODELS.)
MORE FRESH MODELS IN YOUR AREA SOON (There will be more levels eventually. Thanks for checking it out!)
Wow! what a twist I guess I should have seen that coming with the game being called "Photoshooter"
Overall amazing game and Voice acting too. Can't wait to see what It will be like in the future.
Thanks! I'm working on an update with some more levels, so be on the look out!
I wasn't sure where you were going with the "Short murderous photo experience." But that twist made me smile; I would have loved to play more of this to see what the culmination would lead to.
Thanks for playing! I've got an update with more levels in the works, so it's nice to know that it leaves people wanting more.
