Aahh, AI. It's the new hot topic. But it's so expensive! Luckily The BGC knows how to solve this!

I had a lot of fun with this, even if the visuals are cobbled together haha! I think with more time spent on the UI and art and actual path finding (as previously mentioned) this could be a lot of fun! I would also suggest slowly introducing the elements -- mainly I just played around with the light, wasd, music and rocks I found the other things I didn't know how to use or didn't work? Maybe I didn't get far enough to use them? Either way this is a fun take, the animatic at the beginning with the visual gags were pretty funny -- the 99999 going off the screen got a chuckle out of me :D

Thanks :D

All of the elements are supposed to work but they are not perfect since the player is basically acting as a magnet haha

  • Lamp: attracts the player

  • Scary Sound: repulse the player

  • Health: attracts the player, despawns when touched and restore health (health mechanic is not very obvious I think)

  • Rocks: block paths

  • Scary / Happy music changes how scared the player is, it has some weird additional conditions (e.g. happy music + monster seeking is supposed to be not scary)

  • The light thing basically just affects the fear, which makes the game bearable in its state since you can just tweak it to keep the player not too scared haha

I would’ve loved to make the resources limited and make the pace a bit slower maybe.

With a lot more time I would love to turn it into a turn by turn puzzle game :P

This is a good submission; however, it was difficult to know how to solve these levels since you have to deal with so many mechanics at once. Also, the player's pathfinding was getting stuck in a few places, but otherwise, great job!

Thanks! The game does not have a real path finding which is why it’s so bad ahah, the player is attracted to the exit / items and pushed away from obstacles. I definitely think it would have been better with true path finding but I ran out of time!
