How does your game fit the theme?
The action happens right after the storm hits your town.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, we did everything besides sound effects. They are from ZapSplat.com.

I like it! It may help to include some directions on the main menu to explain the mechanics, but the game feels polished, good work!
Well done! The game actually feels quite polished, especially with the extra details of getting hit by the cars, all the sound effects, and the lighting/shadows.
we tried really hard, thank you very much!
Nice concept, I think this is the first horror type game I've been voting. Nice work overall, Good Luck!
Nice 3D and concept . I'm still not completely sure how the staring mechanics work (sometimes I can't get the aliens to disappear) but it's a nice idea, it conveys a paranoiac mood pretty well !
Thanks a lot for the feedback! You're right, we should've given a wider window for staring detection.
Aha the first jump scare got me! I think that restricting the player to only one direction can make for really fun gameplay. Also, dodging the cars felt a bit Frogger-esque which I loved, it really helped intensify the pressure of the storm!
It took me a bit to get a handle on how to improve, but when I did it really made the game enjoyable. I think it’d be wicked if there were to be an alien at first when you spawn in to stare at and watch vanish so that’s communicated early. But otherwise I had a lot of fun!
Thank you a lot for the feedback! I absolutely agree with you on better communicating mechanics early on.
Those pesky aliens are coming to get me! Why does no one believe me?! XD I like this game, it was simple yet fun. I didnt realize why I was getting attacked until I realize I was supposed to look my death in the eyes and smile like a badass. You would'nt have ever imagined a species smart enough to travel a million light years in a super powerful space ship is scared of eye contact. Social anxiety issues, I get it. Nice game! I liked the art style and the ambience! Was fun! <3
Thank you for the kind words! The aliens were constantly watching us during development as well. xD
Jump scare with the alien got me. Cool game but was a little confusing at first that you could only go in one direction. Loved the atmosphere
Yeah, I understand, it's not immediately obvious what to do with them yet xd
Thank you so much for playing our game!
At first, it was hard to understand what to do, but once I got the controls, it turned into a fun game with a great
atmosphere.
High score: 299
Appreciate it! It's really great to know someone liked the game enough to have a high score on par with the developers themselves. :)
Pretty challenging, I like it! Man the cars come out of nowhere lol
Loved the art style, and atmosphere. Its pretty challenging too! Nice job.
Thank you very much!
That game is terrifying! I always get hit by a car but manage to do 60 m
I agree, when there are a lot of roads spun together it's hard for me too xd
Thanks for the review!
Hee-ho. 62 meters - my limits)
Really nice game with a dark aesthetic :) It was challenging for me to get used to spotting the aliens while being chased by a ginormous slime but it was still pretty fun tho :)
Thank you a lot!
