Very nice and enjoyable game! You can see that a lot of work has been done! ☆ ( ◕▿◕ )。.:*☆

Unbelievable, what some people can do in just two weeks. Excellent work! It was a funny moment when it turned out I'd be the tiny dino :) That actually ties in so well with the Jurassic films we know.

I unfortunately run on Linux and when I tried to run it over wine it would just boot up a black screen. This is definitely an issue on my end, and I am sad about it because your entry looks like had a ton of work put into it. No expectations because I know that it could be a lot of extra work (not sure what the process looks like with unreal), but if you do push up a linux build please let me know!

I’m not really fond of this genre of games, but this was astonishing. At first, I thought ammo was unlimited and got out of sedatives at the first stretch, had to run for my life :D

Apart from smaller issues other comments mention, the game looks really promising! Congrats!!!

Woah, great, it's been an amazing experience
I really liked the ambience and the overall resident evil influence

I think you should add either a crosshair or ADS because it's very easy to miss your shots when moving.

Other than that this has been great!

Wow! Thank you very much for dedicating that much time to my demo! Truly appreciate you and very glad you enjoyed the experience.
Thanks for the valuable feedback too - Will look into adding an ADS mechanic with a crosshair. I think that's a great idea!
Cheers!

Incredible job on the game! It felt similar to some early 2010s games like dayz/7d2d. 

Personally im a sucker for these types of games and this game was incredibly fun to play.

The only issue I encountered was with the fp camera. It seemed like there was maximum degree to which the camera would move per mouse movement. It felt like I had to wait for the camera to finish turning before making another move, but other than that I really enjoyed the game.

Once again incredible job on creating this within the jam time!

Thank you very much! Im a sucker for this genre too. Very glad to hear you received it well!
In the settings window (ESC on Keyboard or Start on XBOX controller) you can adjust the camera sensitivity and it should fix that camera issue. The controls are all remappable from this window too!
Appreciate you taking the time to download and play the game my friend! Means the world to me.
