Niven Hedinger's short horror game "Passerby" turns out to be a gripping experience, where the DEV weaves together elements of horror, survival, and exploration into a compact yet intense narrative. The premise of navigating an abandoned town as the protagonist Nathan, a lone traveler, throws the unsuspected player into a sense of immediate isolation and vulnerability, setting the stage for a suspenseful journey.
The usual attention to detail in Niven's game design, from atmospheric soundscapes to post-apocalyptic visuals and creepy sounds, enhances the immersive nature of "Passerby."
On a side note, it's intriguing that there's only one ending, suggesting a linear but impactful story progression that kept this player engaged from start to finish. Without a beat, this is the perfect bite-sized horror adventure for fans of the genre.
Well done, Niven!
I didn't run into any bugs, hiccups or other snags, so kudos to either you or all involved, and thanks for making this very enjoyable game!
