Hai, uhm, thought I would leave my thoughts. The game is fun! Its short but I didn't expect it to be too long. The masks are all unique and there are some really cool references too, same with the dialogue. The art style has its own unique and creepy charm and the sound design makes it feel so eerie and desolate.
I don't have many complaints with the game. The hitbox for the notepad seems way too big when trying to go from that to the gun, feels like when I was over the gun, it was still clicking the notepad. When you kill / let in the last person, it seems to not be able to choose between an empty husk or the last person again, so maybe make it only pick one of them no matter what, but aside from that it was great!
For things I would like to see
- A proper death screen: The old one is nice don't get me wrong, but an easier way to see that you died and give you the option to return to the main menu, go into a next run straight away or just go into the settings would be nice!
- A victory screen: I felt kinda underwhelmed when I won and all there was a small bus driving on the transition screen and that was it, maybe add a little more there!
- A hint screen / encyclopedia: I can't lie some of the things like "suit" or "growth" or "broken" really stumped me for the longest time and I didn't know what were killing me, so maybe a little hint on the death screen based on what caught you off guard or an encyclopedia of the various things you have seen and you get progressive hints based on how often you see it could be nice, also could add a nice little gallery of all the masks you have seen, I would love to see them all again!!
- Some behind the scenes: A little bit of like development of certain areas like music, mask design, inspirations for the game, or like little Dev notes on things that were hard to solve and how you worked around them would be cool. Obviously lock this behind once you beat the game because that would be cool!
- More masks, conditions and dialogue: It would be cool to see more of all of this, it was getting a bit repetitive seeing the same masks over and over so more variety could be nice, same with the dialogue. There could be some new conditions added too, maybe add some "special" masks that change some stuff up like changing the conditions on what you need to look out for (Obviously with a indicator) or some other stuff (I'm not creative so I can't think of anything but you could!)
That's all I have to say, while short, this was a really fun experience and I can not wait to see what happens in the future with this game!
