im actually quaking in my boots rn this game SUCKS (complementary) and is horrifying im so bad at playing horror games so I had my friend play for me and you've 100% mastered the feeling of fear needed for this we were all on a discord call and screaming so 10/10 i love what you did w it

the graphics are crunchy and the color choices are perfect in unison to create a very very unsettling experience from the get go. Audio kicks in to make it even worse and then the angels appear and you start wondering what the point of resistance is lol, you did a great job!

What I would say tho is that the camera sensitivity is 100% way too high and made playing an actual struggle as multiple times we got lost trying to find where the angels were, not because they ran away or moved but because a mouse flick was enough to send it into the wall. Lowering that I think would make the game way more playable and also more horrifying haha

Great work!! I'm really impressed, this feels less of a game jam or a proof of concept and more like a demo for a greater game. Excellent!

Very cool! The filter, assets, and SFX are all neat. I jumped a few times!

However, like other people have noticed, it fairly quickly just becomes a game of keeping the group of angels in one place while not letting them leave your screen. Once you figure that out, the game isn't that interesting. It would be nice to highlight which things you can interact with and which you can't.

Overall, a good submission!

I absolutely love the Doctor Who franchise, and you my friend, PERFECTLY encapsulated the creep and evil of the Angels, you made this game genuinly terrifying the art is amazing. This is one of the only horror games, that had me fucking terrified. at first. lmao after a certain point the angels just got so easy to galavant around. Overall the difficulty switches so much once u get over the fear. Game could be more difficult. Overall the enviorement of the game was perfect, you have done an amaizng job.

really creepy, genuinely had me scared at first. Once you figure out how the angels work though, its pretty easy to coral them all together and it just becomes a game of babysitting them until you stumble on the keys. Great vibes, needs more variety
