How does you game fit the theme?
Every step the player takes they have to figure out what floors and walls aren't real in order to progress. The gameplay hints at a story of the entire "event" the character experiences as being a nightmare (not real ;) ).
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
We made the entire game ourselves with help from Google. This is with the exception of Unity standard assets for polygon rigs and animations, Syntystore art for said polygon rigs, and fonts from 1001fonts.com.

Hey your game reminds me of our own :D Lights and fake walls! Yours is much scarier though. Good job! I liked that you had to learn the levels to save battery time.
we already talked in the other comment section but thanks so much for the kind comments 😁 I'm glad it scared you, that was the whole point of it hahaha
A very interesting game! Trying to find secret walls and actual paths is difficult and tricky. The flashlight mechanic isn't very good though: you can still pass through fake walls and you wouldn't be able to discern any walls without the flashlights anyway. Other than this, the game is pretty fun!
thanks for your review, it was actually by choice that you could go through the fake walls without the flashlight because once you know that you can consume less flashlight battery... at first we couldn't go through without flashlight and we decided that we should be able to because they aren't real, so why wouldn't we be able to go through? plus you can complete the game without a flashlight (if you survive of course) hahah
I'm glad you still had fun with our game!
Nice theme use. The mirror scared the pants off me.
hahaha thanks!
Honestly that mkirror took my friends hours and hours to make ! I am glad you enjoyed it haha
I like the idea of the fake walls! And its 3D - pretty amazing
thanks man! I tried your game as well, I tried to go through the tutorial twice but on the second run then the game bugged out so I had to restart the game (just to let you know)
otherwise love the assets, ui and music they all look and sound amazing!
This game has a sweet concept! I like how you have to manage using your flashlight to not die while not using it too much to run out of power.
thanks! you also have a management kinda game with food and trees it's pretty fun as well haha though, I went to 200 and I thought made new enemies or different things to do could have been fun as well
but good job thus far with this game, it is great!
Yeah, I was hoping on at least 2 enemy types, but due to time restrictions (and my inability to make pixel art animals) , I didn't end up doing it. Thanks for playing though!
Good stuff! The sensitivity setting was very welcome! Not a lot of people added that.
thanks for being fair with Rate for rate (not everyone actually do a rate for rate haha)
and yeah! my friend and I had different mouse settings so we were like hang onnnn WE NEED IT!
This has some pretty nice concepts!
Wow, I'm amazed that you managed to make a 3D game in one week! What an amazing work!
Honestly it was our first game ever and we thought it could be fun to try our very best (aka very little sleep hahahaha)
but thank you very much! did you manage to find the exit by the way?
Yes I did.
I hate the mirror, I got scared by my own reflection T^T!! lol
But on a serious note, this was a great game! I had fun playing it!! Great job ^^b
yeah the reflections took many hours to manage! thanks a lot for the kind comment!
I'm not fan of horror game but I like your game
yeah, it isn't everyone's taste, that's why easy mode is a bit less scary cuz damn these zombies are terrifying haha
but thanks!
and again love the game you made!
Awesome work! I would like to report that, even playing on Easy, I still managed to scare myself with my own reflection sometimes xD But sadly I did not manage to find all the three coins, I just got two :c
Great job!!
thanks a lot! Yeah many hours were spent on this reflection haha
by the way, did you manage to find the exit?
and again good job on your story-telling I loved the artwork!
No I also didn't manage to find the exit :( I ran out of battery on the flashlight and I got very lost. (I have a very bad sense of direction lol)
And thank you very much! <3
i like the game
nice aesthetics and idea
great work man
Thanks man! :D
I am happy you enjoyed it!
and again great work to you too!
Ooh that was creepy! Excellent touch of seeing yourself in the miror! Nice work! I couldn't quite figure out how to get out of the maze though.
Thanks for you kind comment! Even though I knew the ambience music was my own voice, I was still feeling the rush haha!
My friend mifra, made this really nice mirror effect!
Perhaps the exit isn't very obvious, or maybe there is no escape from reality 😱 but alright, in the future, I'll make sure to make the exit a bit more visible
it took me a while too (Helix made the maze), which is why we added a mode without enemies haha. Glad you enjoyed the effect, too many hours went into it!
Hey guys!
Thank you once again for playing our game!
For those of you who played our game, what was your fastest time in the maze?
Anyone can beat my 45.34 seconds?😋
A fun romp, keep up the good work!
thanks! You too, your game was a cool adaptation of the ghost-hunter style games, a lot of potential! :D
Not everything is real. But of course the spikes are real. ;)
yeah, that's the tricky bit isn't it :P hahaha
