very cool idea! I love the style! Could you rate my game too?

Pretty cool game, none of my people survived :)

Hope that you'll also rate mine https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690

Just barricaded one person in the house and survived all the 6 days, lol.

Not really sure what just happened, but i love the art and music.

Submitted

Nice mood and polish, well done ! I managed to survive a few days

cool concept  :)

good concept, the light effect is a sucsses

Nice game, I love the vibe at night! It was a bit hard for me to understand what was going on, what I needed to do at day, what I need to do at night (when you can't see anything really...) A nice entry overall!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback and for playing. There is an electric generator to switch on to have light during the night, but did not introduce it in dialogs.

I really like the style of this, had some old flash game vibes. Needed another go once i knew what i was doing :)

I absolutely like the visuals including the little details about those night visitors. I managed to spot a group of three standing around while the storm was just brewing and it managed to convey the ‘Cabin in the woods’ feeling. I think I cheesed the game by just placing all population counter relevant elements (aka citizens) in the same room all the time no matter what.

Stunning work! The visuals are beautiful, and the gameplay is so smooth and fun. It's clear that a lot of passion went into this, and the result is nothing short of amazing. Fantastic job!

Hey!

Creating everything from scratch is pretty tough, I commend you for that. The gameplay is fun, the night is a bit fast, and it seems like seperating the group while constantly repairing the barricades can almost guarantee your survival. 

I like the visuals, they have a certain charm to them. Also, this is more like a personal problem of mine, but whenever I see "horror" on the game tags, I'm very hesitant to try it out (I'm VERY easy to scare :D). This one is thematically horror though, and I really enjoyed it.

Cheers!

Well done on the mix of art styles, blends together well. Good submission :)

That's a cool concept! And I like the vibe you're cooking up. I did have some trouble determining exactly how I should go about things and it felt like there were a lot of guys to manage in a really short time. I think some more work on this would be worth it and fun! Keep it up!

Love the aesthetic! Nice combination of 2D sprites and 3D assets.

Fun game with a spooky vibe. AI issues and clunky gameplay didn't overshadow the excitement. A few UI tweaks could enhance playability.

Submitted

Hee-ho. Beautiful game. Cool experience. Thank you

Very fun! A few bugs and AI gets stuck sometimes but it didn't ruin the fun for me.

I think adding UI indicators like what needs a repair/barricade or just health bars would be a huge quality of life improvement (instead of having to mouseover every doorway to find a breach).

Opening graphics are rad...gameplay is super clunky though and despite having expositional dialogue, I did not feel that it really touched the essence of what the player is expected to do. There is too many guys to control many of whom died before I was aware of their existence but the game actually became easier when I only had 2-3 guys since I just barricaded and repaired the entry ways of one building each and "won" the game without ever finding a use for the fuel cans or futzing with the generator at all - not sure if that was intentional or if there was something I was supposed to do. Saw a medkit and what I thought looked like an axe but was not able to discern if they were interactable or not...as my only tangible options were only ever repair or barricade  

Developer

Thanks for playing and your feedback. I indeed wanted to let player discover by himself that the storm is not the real problem (surely a bit unfair). The real goal would be to save a maximum of guys, but I did not focus on that, as there was (as you saw) other things to fix. You can give weapon to citizen  to defend themselves, and even attack with right-click (forget to mention it)

Really cool concept! Maybe I would have added 3D models for the survivors and slow down a bit the game. Overall great work :)
