No, I have listed all assets used in the credits

Atmosphere is well crafted and even though the assets are mainly pre-made, you put them together well and gave it personality, great job! Audio design was also great.

Feedback:
- Mouse sense settings please :( at least I didn't find them. I am a high DPI boy and that made everything quite a bit harder.
- I had a bug the first time where I couldn't interact with anything, thought it was my fault but after a restart it worked. Overall some small performance issues but I really appreciated the graphics settings

Submitted

Its a really fun horror with really good graphics and ambience. Its crazy what you made in 7 days. The only thing i wish was done better was the size of the project 2GB is a LOT for a jam game consider optimising it in the future lol.

8.5/10 :>

Submitted

Great work with creating the scary atmosphere! 

Love your game! Its so scary :O

Submitted

Solid game! looks great and interesting list sytem!

im always impressed with the rare unreal game jam entry that is somehow able to build and render well within such a short jam time lol. the graphics were really nice but there were a lot of issues with the game design and audio. and the jumpscare was more painful than it was scary, it was just really loud and out of nowhere.  getting the rendering and efficiency stuff in such a short time is nice, but maybe consider thinking about some other aspects of the design as well. thanks for entering!

Good

Very confusing and boring, i kept dying for no apparent reason and didn´t find the rules, but i think it has a lot of potential.

Developer

I think it's clear from the monologue at the start that the rules list paper is on the table in the living room. Maybe give it a retry and then give me your feedback. Thanks for taking the time to play and comment tho!

Submitted

The opening sequence is pretty good. I liked the voice acting on the monologue. As far the actual game, the atmosphere is pretty good, but i found the gameplay to be a bit too punishing. There were so many rules on my first night I found my self just getting hit with jumpscares left and right without knowing why and before i even understood the layout of the house. I think if you started with fewer rules and  slowly introduced new rules 1 or 2 at a time over the course of the days it would not only  give more opportunity for the suspense to build and make the game a bit more forgiving when your learning the ropes.

It's not so hard to kill the player where he is, especially when you have  a week and pre-made assets. Outside the house not all assets/resources have properly loaded or it's just empty, but overall not the worst game in this jam.

Submitted

Even though the house is an asset, great job on the atmosphere! it fits the game really well :)

Submitted

This is actually a very nice game! Really liked the audio and the map was put together nicely 

Submitted

2 GB asset flip GG its so over

Developer

No problems in using pre-made assets. Make sure to play it first and then comment by giving feedback!

Submitted

True. But you gotta use them correctly. The map design is good but the audio is a bit too loud.

Submitted

Oh, my God. You know what? This really is the best produced submission I've played so far, the scenes are so beautifully crafted and the story is compelling, it's just exquisite!

Submitted

really good game its really polished and just overall really good, though idk if it's just me but i'm playing on a laptop and the game seems to cut of some of the screen it could just be my issue, great job! :D

Developer

Maybe try to edit the resolution from the Options menu, let me know if you have been able to beat it, thanks for taking the time to play and comment!

Submitted

beautiful experience, well done !

Developer

Thanks for taking the time to play and comment!

Submitted

I was a bit overwhelmed and died because of the lights the first night x) Other than that it was nice! I wouldn't have minded if the neighbourhood was in complete dark at the start, it was weird to see the placeholder walls

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I would definitely try to edit the neighborhood environment in the next update. Thanks for taking the time to play and comment!

Submitted

Nearly gave me a heart attack, I'm hoping to see more of your projects!

Developer

Hahaha, be careful! Make sure to follow to look forward for future projects. Thanks for taking the time to play and comment!

Submitted

Couldn't play the input didn't work

Developer

Are you using keyboards or controller? make sure to check out the controls of the game written in the game page. Let me know if you still have the problem!

Submitted

you won't belive it but this is the first game i've found so far that has handled audio this well

Developer

Yea, the audio thing is a tricky one, thanks for taking the time to play and comment!
