Oh my gosh, I was SO INTO THIS. Absolutely love the take on the route in the anomaly games (no loop--you have to go back to the beginning which is sometimes really terrifying)

I'm really excited to see what's going on in the full game! IMMEDIATELY wishlisted.

I had. SO MUCH fun playing this lol. I had to sneak in a spur-of-the-moment upload midweek because I was so excited to see this lol. Thanks for making this week WAAAAAY better for me!

Absolutely adore the art direction, color scheme, playstyle.... just... YES. Absolutely can't wait to see where you go in the future, dev!

(Also I did cut out approx 30 minutes of me going HOW DO I DO THE FINAL CROC!?!?!?? Don't let the time fool you. I got stuck like... SEVERAL times.)

I really loved the story (what I saw of it at least!), but I did bump into a few bugs! The largest of them being that if I clicked on the game in the phone, it would error out and 7 times out of 8, that crashed the game, both in the desktop and in the web versions of the game. I did manage to play it to get what I assume is one of the extra endings, and I did also get the "locked out of the phone" ending as well. 

But I could NOT for the life of me figure out where to go to get into the settings or the photos! And I suspect what I needed was in there to get the main ending. 

I did really enjoy it though, and I think this has a ton of potential! I look forward to see what you do with it in the near future, dev! I also hope someone figures out the main ending because the curiosity is eating me ALIVE.

OK this was AMAZING. I was absolutely loving this! First of all, I'm a sucker for job horror. Second, the atmosphere was awesome.
Third, THAT ENDING???? WHAT? 
Don't let the thumbnail fool ya, I was on board the entire time lol.

My only note is that the chucks from the final skirmish seemed to not have gotten translated from (I assume) russian for the english version.

Wow that's CREEPY! I love the atmosphere! Honestly I was so unnerved most of the time waiting for something to happen it was almost a relief when it did. 
I'm excited to see what the rework of this game has to offer, dev! I'm also excited to see what on earth happened to the senior investigator in this. Like why is the junior investigator going into this alone!? Whose idea was THAT?

I have also never been so happy I learned my basic 1-10 in Japanese lol. 

So.... I am TERRIBLE at this game hahahah. But I loved every second of it! It looks like it takes most people 20-30 minutes or so? 

...let's just say... it took me longer than that. Like a lot longer. BUT I might actually give nightmare mode a go with this one because the gameplay mechanics themselves were SO FUN!

This was so cool! I got more and more disturbed as time went on. By the time we got to the end I actually had to like.... take a few seconds to breathe before making a choice hahahaha. 

WOW--Chapter 2 was such a big jump from Chapter 1! I was surprised to see the price tag originally but IMO it's definitely worth it. I had a ton of fun doing the voices. Probably too much honestly hahahah.

My only real bug found was with the police at the end. Which gave me a giggle for sure lol. 

This is. SO much fun!!!! I'm actually quite shocked at how scary it was. The premise seemed pretty simple but it really had a good atmosphere going for it. I can't wait to see the full version when it's released!!! 

This was creepy but really fun! I loved the visual style, and the gameboy vibes were too accurate. 
A terrific pixel based horror game that doesn't linger after the party's over. I honestly didn't see the ending coming and was surprised who I felt bad for. 

This was TERRIFYING. The first tape certainly is hitting hard. I can't wait to see what else you do with this game! I do think that final scare was a little less impactful than the other more subtle scares. Those got me fearing for my life lol. 

Glad to help! And I'm glad the feedback wasn't over the top. Looking forward to what else you develop in the future.

I had SO MUCH FUN with this demo. I'm so excited to see the full version of the game once it comes out!!

Going out to tighten the bolts was freaking me out every time. I had my ears peeled for rustling in the bushes and was ready to bolt at any time hahah.

OH MY GOSH!!!!! I'm so excited for this!!!!! Can't wait to see the revamped version Ollie!

Hi, so I unfortunately ran into quite a few bugs when playing the game. I love the concept and I think with a few updates it could really shine. You've got a good atmosphere building here in the beginning!

Bugs/Notes:

- The policeman never leaves the front of my house after we speak. 

- The task prompt shows the current and previous prompt overlayed on top of each other and is unreadable

- It's not immediately apparent if you die in the final fight that it's not just a glitch--a scene acknowledging "You Died" or something like that would definitely be useful. 

- There don't seem to be any punctuation marks in the game, and some lines are repeated. 

- Speaker tags are inconsistently showing (Sometimes the dialogue says "James: blah blah blah" and sometimes it just says "blah blah blah"). If we aren't going to have a speaker tag for when we're speaking, that can be confusing

- Names are changed (we refer to Adam, and the speaker tag says his name is James at the last order scene with our coworker)

- There's a few times where the model shows both the "closed" and "open" state at the same time. The microwave in the kitchen is one example after we get food, and another is the black van at the end--you can see the two-door back of the van with one door open, one closed.... and also one open lol. 

I'm looking forward to seeing what you'll do next, dev! Hope this wasn't too detailed.

Oh WOW! Ok the scares were definitely amped up for me in this one! I played the original upload and haven't played 1.1 so can't speak to those changes, but this hit waaaaay harder than Final Night for me. I got the bejeezus scared out of me at least a few times. 

And I definitely noticed that the audio stings and jumpscares were timed more effectively here in my opinion. It showed a LOT of improvement!!! 
My only question is wait what happened at the end there!? I couldn't see anything! I HAVE QUESTIONS!

I'm recording tonight!! I already bought it the day it came out hahahahah

This took me longer to complete than expected, but I had TONS of fun playing this! The vibes were awesome. I think not being able to phase through enemies when fighting got me into a few tough places (my own fault lol) but it does lend a certain sense of realism!

Really though, the aesthetics, sound, and gameplay were AMAZING and I can't wait to see the full game! 

Absolutely LOVED playing this one! I did get stuck for a long time with Valerie and the gramophone puzzle, but eventually got it. The visual style is just GORGEOUS and I absolutely loved it. The mood was super intriguing the entire time, and I did not see the end coming! Or at least not all of it. 

I'm going to have to go back and see if I can play other things from you, dev! I think your sense of style is right up my alley!

This was so much fun! I wish there was a bit more diversity in the endings (I wanted to be a hero!!!)
But that's me being sad lol. I thoroughly  enjoyed the experience. 

This was so much fun! I'm psyched for the full game as always, and can't wait to see what the devs do next! I was THOROUGHLY grossed out but I really love the over-the-top atmosphere. It's REALLY creepy, REALLY gross, and REALLY scary at times.

And that's the demo!

This was so much fun! I think this captured the vibe of PS1 era games really well. Short, sweet, and with fun dialogue! Overall a REALLY solid psx indie game in my opinion. I had an absurd amount of fun. 

This was AMAZING!!!! I didn't know much going into this but I didn't expect it to hit that hard. I'm absolutely excited to see what you come up with next dev!

Oh I'm excited to see where this goes! I love the vibe, and I'm interested in where you'll have the story go in the full version. 

Ooooh I'm excited for this one! Very spooky vibes so far, and there wasn't much horror going on in the demo, but the atmosphere alone was pretty horrifying!

Oh gosh this one is going to be terrifying. I love the environments pictured!

Absolutely cannot wait! Good luck with development!

This was fun! I'm not quite sure I get the ending fully but I loved the visuals and the atmosphere! It was way more cinematic than games I've played from you in the past as well and I feel like this game is showing soooo much of how you've improved as you've made games. GREAT job!

I looooved the atmosphere in this one! I think for me the jumpscares didn't quite hit as hard. Could have to do with timing of sound cues but I'm not quite sure. Definitely the atmosphere of this was AMAZING though. 

The lighting was super cool, and the part where we had to manipulate the body had me sooooo grossed out. The tension and atmosphere were really A+. I think maybe a few more subtle scares where there aren't sound cues even would have made this absolutely terrifying. With the plotline I think that makes more sense. 

But that's my personal opinion, and I'm still thinking of this game a week later so it definitely had an impact on me. Excited to play Meat Market when it comes out! The whole plot is a really cool concept and I'm excited to see if the next game is related.

So I had...suuuuuch a hard time completing this lol. I actually had to stand up to take a break and forgot to restart my recording when I sat down again (oops). So I don't have the video of my reaction like I wanted. BUT. 

I looooooove what I've seen here. I am going to have to go give your other demo set in this world a go because I really found what lore we got here fascinating. I would like to see a little bit more story integrated here? Maybe some sort of difficulty setting for people like me who are absolute garbage at multitasking lol. But I thoroughly enjoyed the experience regardless and did feel like the ending was fair payoff for the mental anguish it took to complete the levels lol. Good job dev!

I was SHOCKED by this game. I knew going in it was going to be spooky but the turn still caught me completely by surprise. I absolutely love the art style and I can't wait to see more! 

This was an amazingly wild ride from start to finish!
It feels super nostalgic in some ways--like I'm watching an old martial arts movie. The characters were zany and gave me many a laugh. The dialogue also had me giggling. Overall, a really fun game!

I had SO much fun playing this oh my gosh! I played the first week for my channel and 6 hours later it was so late but I'd done a whole week and I was so proud. I had an unbelieveably fun time doing the voices too. The dialogue in this is so well written and engaging and AHH. Did I mention the music was amazing? Because OH MY GOD. And the full on OP like we were in an anime had me slackjawed before I even started playing the game. AND THE ART???? OH MY GOD????

Needless to say I'm on tenterhooks waiting to see more of this. 

Hoooly moly. This was absolutely terrifying. And the graphics were AMAZING. Once I saw it was by Solitary Studios I should have known I'd be scared silly! Yet there I was--unable to scream bc I had no air in my lungs lol. 

I honestly ADORED this one. I was so disappointed when the demo ended because I wanted more! Looking forward to the full release!! 

I haven't been so on edge for a while in a game lol. Good job on the atmosphere!

This was SO creepy! The atmosphere was awesome, and I'm thoroughly confused as to what's going on honestly, but I'm super eager to see what the full stories are when this comes out entirely! The sense of dread and tension is really well built in my opinion, and most of the scares got me GOOD. A few didn't quite get me (after a while, someone walking across the hallway didn't freak me out anymore) but there were always more scares that succeeded!

All this to say, I wishlisted this one SO FAST. 

I was so confused by this game but it was so much fun anyway! It took a long time for me to realize where to use the wire cutters, and then I felt SO dumb but honestly it should have been obvious. That's on me lol. I LOVED the twist at the end! Well... twists I guess lol. 

I KNEW that guy was weird!

This was SO creepy! I had a lot of fun with it! Water scenes always creep me out tbh--I'm from somewhere with a lot of swampland so dark water is one of the scariest things to me! I was so happy to get out of that section jeez..... 

I had SO much fun playing this!!! I actually recorded myself but apparently OBS doesn't pick up on your game as a game and didn't record that part--just my facecam. 

It's a real shame because I had SO much fun. I played through 4 or 5 times to try and see everything we can see. The mood is pretty tense, and I LOVE the leaf pile mechanic you've got going here! My only question is... CAN we save Johnny? How many endings are there? I will 100% replay this if there is a save-our-friend ending and I just didn't find it. 

I would adore more of this honestly--if you make (or have made, I haven't checked out your dev page yet) a game using this mechanic that's longer. An hour, maybe? I'd play that SO GLADLY. It reminds me a bit of Radiolight in a way. The general vibe, not the gameplay. Very atmospheric. 

All that to say, TERRIFIC job dev!
