how come I can't move after I open the inventory?

Developer

First, thanks for playing!

It's strange, no one has reported that error so far... does it always happen with every new game?

Pity its so short, i think it's more likely a prototype or a proof of concept. Great atmosphere, would definitely play and pay for a longer more complete version with all kinds of jumpscares. I think you're onto something here.

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, it's very short and simple... I didn't have time to develop the story more and create more environments, but I'm glad you had fun.

Looks decent, but the file size is egregious for the length of the game. You should probably spend some time learning about what steps you can take to optimize your games. There are many people out there, such as myself, who don't want to spend over 1GB of bandwidth and storage on 5 minutes of content.

Developer

Thank you very much for your feedback about the optimization, you're right, but in the few days I spent creating this experience I didn't have time to do more 😞

Screenshots look so cool! Game is too scary for me, I'm not going to play that, I'm not crazy! ;P  But I love the result, with the creepy effects and the narrow field of view in the darkness.  The environments too look interesting, in this old house with forgotten garbage bags, etc. To me it seems to be reminicent of Silent Hill (?). I really like the idea, well done mister JJ!

Hahaha, thank you very much for your kind comments, it's a shame that you don't dare to play it, it really isn't that scary... 😈

Even though I had trouble finding the tapes, it felt a little short.
I love the atmosphere however, reminds me of RE7.
I see you have created other games/experiences, I'll try check them out when I get the time.

Developer

Thank you very much for playing and for your comment!

Yes, it's a very short experience, I didn't have time for more... I focused mainly on the atmosphere and yes, definitely RE7 has been the main source of inspiration.
