It to me felt like what one would expect from a horror game. It felt good to play but it didn't really stand out all that much. It all felt pretty much ok which is good but I felt it could have been more than what it is.

I did feel the idea was great though but it was just kind of generic in the way you went around with the idea.

Developer(+1)

is there anyway I could improve or what would you like to see in horror games? 

Submitted

Well one thing is the length which was honestly pretty short but that is understandable for the time frame. I personally would think it would be cool to have to place down traps around the house while the creepy person so you have to try and avoid him while traping the stuff (sort of like a high stakes Home Alone type of deal).  Also I personally think the head tilt is not really that creepy  but that is honestly just me. The sound effect stinger for  each scare felt like it could have been replaced with a random explosion sound effect and be just as scary. I honestly like the break in storyline but the way the game plays makes  it feel generic.

I did like the news in the opening as that was great for world building. Just wanted to mention that.

Great horror game! I liked the story and it really scared me haha
Good atmosphere and sounds, the assets were well used, nice job!

Developer

thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!!

graphics and sounds actually give you an atmosphere you need for that kind of horrors! Guess you kinda used all the graphics potential that unity can give you) Everything is done really fine, and it actually scared me. Which is surely the point of horror games) And it also fits the theme! So, great job!

Developer

thank you... I played your game as well! and i really like it, I'm glad you enjoyed the game.. so thank you for the feedback

Submitted

Holy crap the atmosphere is amazing! And i like how the story starts with a news report to get you to know about what's going on. Even though the head bob is a bit exaggerated, I still had a really good time playing this, great job! :)

I also liked your game!

dang bro

Developer

indeed

Submitted

I was so scared that my heart almost stopped. You are so good at creating fear with lighting!

Developer (1 edit)

thank you so much!! I might check out our game when I have time! But I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Spooky! The intro cinematic was really well done with the news segment. It would be cool to see this game expanded to add more development to the story. What happened to the rest of the main character's family? All of the other bedrooms were empty.

Developer(+1)

So I planned it to where his family went out on a trip.. and he was left alone because he had school, so they couldn't really bring him along.. I forgot to add that into the main story my bad haha but thank you for playing it means a lot! I might also check your game out as well!

Wow this game was spooky, well done had a lot of fun with it! I really like the news at the beginning to interduce us to the story.

Developer(+1)

thank you I will be sure to check out your game as well but this really helps me!!

Great atmosphere, I was scared walking thru the hallways of the house, the first time the serial killer was in the house it jump scared me haha, good job man :D

Developer(+1)

thank you for your feedback!

ur welcome!

Very nice horror game! I usually don't like horror games, but this one was interesting! The story was cool, and the whole game is creepy. The graphics are amazing, and the sounds are scary. The sensitivity of the camera is a bit too high, maybe you should make it so I can lower it in the settings. Because of the awesome graphics, I was getting very low frames per second, like less then 30. You should make an option to lower the graphics (post processing). Really good and scary horror game overall! Good Job!

Developer(+1)

thank you! I will take into account of your advice, if I ever get a chance to make another horror game, 100% and I will try my best to perfect these mistakes 👍

Submitted

really good game, creepy feeling and nice story!

Developer

I also played your game and I was amazed how well played it was glad you liked it!

Submitted

Really nice horror game! The intro is good and does a nice job of building up the plot and the visuals are nice. The objectives feel like something that should just be on the screen all the time rather than needing to hold down a button

Developer

thank you for the feedback I now know what to do! sorry this was my first ever horror game so I wasn't really sure how to put the mechanics in! love your feedback

Submitted

Bruh this game is scary. The building menace is really well done, and the intro was done in a really interesting way! The guy just appearing inside made me immediately try to go back to bed, but I couldn't. I think if you'd made him watch you but not do anything (e.g remove the jump scare), I would have peed my pants.

The extreme derp at the end was excellent, guy looks high af.

Great job!

Developer

I love that I tried your game as well! i was being a sarcastic but it really was a fun experience and the graphics were great, thank you for your feedback

Submitted

The graphics were awesome the beginning into with the news and the with the different shots you did with the camera were amazing! But it was kind of annoying that you had to hold down tab to look at the objective. Overall it's an amazing game wished I was someone who could play horror games but I liked it non the less.

Developer

thank you! I will be sure to try your game out as well!

Submitted

I got scared :D Graphics are amazing and location of the models on the map, the sounds and music is perfect for this game. You could add a sound when you turn on the power, I wasn't sure if I did it until I turned over. Amazing game! The face in the end was funny haha. I enjoyed playing! Can you rate my game by any chance?

Developer

yeah 100% glad you enjoyed

Submitted

Best graphics I've seen in this game jam in this genre!

Holy smokes, that opening cinematic made an impression. It set the tone and made me super creeped out straight away. I would nominate that you include more, possibly between cycles of when the character goes to bed.

As someone mentioned, I had issues with the tab key/controller. However, it didn't take me out of the game -- just something that needs to be fixed in the future, for sure.

Overall, this game is stunning and you should be very proud of what was accomplished here. Great job!

Developer(+1)

thank you! I will be sure to check your game out as well! glad you enjoyed, and as far as the tab key glitch I am aware it had something to do with the triggers and code messing up what number it was on so it increased the number when leaving the trigger which was not intended to happen unfortunately I didn't have time to fix this error as I only had 3 hours left and the code by then for the quests was very long and I myself was very tired so I couldn't really focus.. glad you enjoyed though!

The game is terrifying 🤣 and the graphics are very nice

Developer

thank you, it helps me out a lot!

It started off great at setting up the mood but the objective tab got bugged out on me and was a bit confusing and at the end the derpy face of the "killer" was so funny.

it was a really good experience  and really enjoyed it

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
