This game was kinda nice,the story and characters where creepy, the music is good, the art is very good, but i did not find it very scary and there is not too much gameplay, the game is almost an interactive novel, wich i am not a big fan of. But i liked it!
Also, there are some grammatical errors and the game would randomly crash, wich made the experience a little bit frustrating.
The game has potential to be very good, the graphics are nice, the sound and music are good and i really like the castlevania like gameplay, but at the current state it has too many bugs to be fun, but it has a lot of potential!
The graphics have a nice pixely style, and the music is nice, the problem i could find is that the mouse cursor appears on the screen when playing, but its a nice little concept.
Disclaimer: I only have played until the second room, after the incident in the car, because i got stuck on one of the first puzzles and gave up.
The game has nice art, the story is intriguing, the sounds and music are ok, but some sounds seem to be compressed or something and i think the music does not always fits the atmosphere, but the main problem i have is that the puzzles arent exactly puzzles, the only way i could find out the answer for the first puzzle was searching the words on the white board on the internet, and i dont really like that, because it ended up being a research that just takes time, rather than a fun logic puzzle.
I wish i could experience the rest to give a better comment but one of the first puzzles made me lose interest and give up.
The game has an interesting concept, the visuals are good, the sound is well made,the platformer parts where nice and it is kinda creepy, but i think that the face of the character being on the screen at all times subtracts from the immersion, she always looks bored and never reacts to whats happening, and i tink the ending was too fast and anti-climatic.
But i liked it!
Holy shit this game is good!
The graphics are very well made, the sound is well used, level design is great, the history is very cool, the gameplay is fun and i really liked the mechanic of blood and bullets.
The only thing i can nitpick is that sometimes i felt the game could have used some different ambient noise or something, but overall very well made and very fun game, also its kinda creepy.
This beta is very good, the pixel art and colors used are very good, just like the music, and i am intrigued with the take on the rapunzel fairytale.
The only problem i can think off is that i did not find the game scary at all.
For a beta this is pretty good, i definitely want to see more.
The prototype is kinda cool, the graphics are strangely nice, the music is good and the idea of being the grim reaper is very good, but i fell like the collision with enemies and mainly the spikes are kinda off, like, when i hit the spikes by the sides they still kill me and sometimes it looks like the enemies are not making collision with the player and they still hit me. Also the jumping is too small.
But this could become something quite good if worked upon.
The base for this game is very good, this could be a great game, the basis for a fun gameplay is there, the graphics are good, but this looks like just a prototype since it has no sound and no obvious objective, i would really like to see this completed.
This was great!
The atmosphere is very creepy, the story and writing are very good,sound and music are used quite well, the only gripes i have with the game are: the graphics are not very scary,sometimes they are almost funny, and i found a bug towards the end in wich i had to put the clock hands on two clocks, but i ended up (by my own mistake) putting all 4 clock hands on only one clock, making it impossible to put any clock hand in the other clock.
But even with this little bug i finished the game by restarting the checkpoint, and overall i really liked the game!
Ok,the game is kinda nice but i think the way the caracter moves is a little bit too erratic and imprecise which makes the game frustrating when you die,and when you die,you have to start all over,wich makes it even more frustrating.
But i liked the the graphics, they have a very "meaty" look to them,and the music is also very good.
This game is very nice,the atmosphere and sound are great,the graphics are nice and the theme of the game is very creepy.
The only problem i could find is that the ending is kinda anti-climatic, but still i liked the game.
I think this has a lot of potential!
The graphics are very good,the story made me a little bit intrigued and the music was weirdly pleasant.
I know this is just a demo but i think the character should move a little bit faster, even when sprinting i felt like the character was too slow.
But overall i really want to see more of this!
This game is really weird,and i really like that!
The pixel art and the sounds are very nice,but i think the low framerate is a little bit distracting sometimes, but i really liked the concept even if i did not fully understand what happened.
I found this game to be ok, i really liked the sprite for the cat and the monsters,even if the animation for the monsters is a little bit janky,but i have some problems with the game,most of the time i did not know where to go, the game not having tiles for the ground made the navigation even harder, and i think the lives system for this type of game is really not needed.Also i think a little bit of ambient sound or music could have made the game getter.
But i am really intrigued by the idea of playing with a cat as the main character.
This was very interesting, very original and slightly creepy, the only problem i can think is that it is too short, has no sound and when it start to get interesting, it ends, but nonetheless i liked it!
The idea for the game is very,very good!
And i think you guys pulled it of quite well, but i think that there are some problems,i think the game is too easy since the alien is scared easily by the lights thus making the encounters with him vey rare, and the bar for the power usage is too big, making very hard for the energy to run out.
But i really liked the concept and i think the execution was good,the graphics where nice just like the music.
Its a nice little game, here are the things i liked: the inventory system works quite well and it looks like the one in resident evil wich i like very much, some of the character sprites are charming even if they are kinda blurry, when there is music it works well, the story behind the motel is kinda interesting and the ending is very cool.
Now he things i did not like: i think the game is too silent for most of the time, the combat is not very pleasant since the character has a delay to turn in the direction i am pressing and the final problem is the sides of the screen are cut, making it kinda hard to read some of the text.
But overall i liked it!
I liked the looks of some sprites and the music was used very well,but i had some problems with the game, i think that the sprite for when you are hurt is a little too big and sometimes when i killed the enemy it would still hit me.
But its a nice little game and i really liked the final chase scene.
Very good game,only problem i can think is that there is almost no sound,but the game is great!
I like the concept, but the controls are a little bit buggy,like when i want to turn a corner i get stuck to a wall.And the game could benefit with some sound and music.
But the concept is interesting and i would like to see more done with it :)
I really liked the concept of going against the rules and that you have to switch between light and dark.The creepy and weird atmosphere are quite good, but i think that there should be more checkpoints because it gets a little bit frustrating and repetitive when i die and have to do a bunch of maps again.
But overall i liked it,and also really liked the cover art for some reason.
Ok, but be sure to have winrar installed on your computer, if you do not have it dowload it here http://www.win-rar.com/download.html?&L=0
The jam has completely vanished from the game jams list, and the host for the jam does not reply to any topic, is there some way to enter in contact with the host? Someone knows whats going on? Any information would be very nice.
It also disappeared on mine, and it looks like the creator of the jam did not respond any of the community topics, so maybe, just maybe, it was cancelled, but then again i am just speculating...
Thank you for the comment, and yes there is an unnoficial way to play in windowed mode, when the game is open press alt+enter, altough i dont know if the game plays properly in windowed mode since i designed it for fullscreen.
There is a bug when i die, the game keeps alternating between an image of the outside of the castle and inside the castle, and nothing happens.
I really liked this game, the concept and axecution are really good, the only problem i found where the controls, sometimes i just wanted to go a little bit forward and the character would end up jumping, but it did not happen often to be frustrating.
In conclusion the game is very simple and a very good way to spend some minutes.
Dude, i dont know if this problem is just in my end but when i click on the exe it says that the Blacklair_Data folder is missing, so maybe check it out just to be sure if there is no problem with the game.
Its kinda fun, but i think the instructions could be clearer and there could be some ambient noise rather than just the sound of shots and monsters,but its pretty nice!
Wow thank you for the kind comment,and i agree i should take off the screenshot with the glitches,thanks for the opinion!
