i played through the game and it was a pretty fun expirience. I did encounter a few problems (some are probably the fault of my own stupidity)

The first problem that i encountered, wich i also saw other posts about, was that i didn't see the body where you have to bring the bodyparts to at first, wich lead to me being trapped in the dark after the lights went out and i couldnt swap to my pistol to use the flashlight. This issue would probably be resolved by adding a button to drop the bodyparts, this could maybe lead to other issues, like not finding the bodypart again or dropping it somewhere where you cant get it anymore (idk i am not a game dev). Another issue i encountered was that i didn't really now how to attach the bodyparts to the torso. i mashed E alot to put the arm on the torso but it didn't work and i was very confused. I watched some other videos and it seems like the bodyparts used to float infront of you, wich probably was alot less confusing but also kinda destroyed the immersion, so i am happy about the change. I would still recommend to having to mannualy attache the limbs. The last issue I encountered was not really bad, but in the section where the guy shows you the picture, I was to stupid to pick it up and with a little crouch and jump spamming i got past him. I don't know if you already know about this tho, because the section just appeared again later but with the more distorted chairs i could not get past him without picking up the picture. I don't know if that was intentional.

Hey man. Thanks for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed it a little, evne with the bugs.

The first thing, I will not be adding a button to drop the bodyparts, because Unreal Engine's physics is buggy as hell and it will lead to bigger problems (most likely the limbs glitching through the floor and losing them forever). If you have a bodypart, just put it in it's place. 

Secondly, I can't add a "press E to attach" interaction because I'm using some trigger boxes to detect when the limb is close and that sets up the next things. Just walk close to the spot while holding the limb and it will automatically attach.

The third thing I can't really do anything about haha, I mean there's a guy blocking your path holding a photo, it's pretty obvious it's important.

Thanks again for playing and for sharing your feedback, I really appreciate that.

God bless.
