I really like the visuals and atmosphere, and the concept is really cool. I found it to be a little slow paced, with most of the play time being just walking, however, when the "friendly neighbor" showed up, it was actually kind of terrifying so good job on that! Also, the controls are really creative, I especially like the interact mechanic :)
Thank you very much for playing. The walking speed is an issue for this game but since it's horror it has to be slow. I came to the conclusion that the map should have been smaller since wandering around is really boring. Thanks for the feedback, it's really appreciated, have a great night/day!

Cool and spooky game! Great aesthetics. A little too slow, but I see how it would of been difficult to fix while still being limited to 3 buttons. Good job overall :)
Thank you very much for playing. Yes the walk speed is a problem, but as you mentioned, it would have been hard to interact with objects if it was faster. A great compromise should be found though. Have a great night/day!
Love PSX horror games :D
Nice game!
Thank you very much for playing. I've tried my best to make the game look as PSX style as possible. Have a great night/day!

Very nice game) Cool graphics, idea) The control is a bit inconvenient… (noob such a limit) But for me, a little too complicated… And the butcher is stupid for me… I only met him when I got 2 canisters and a key… And he got stuck between the trees… But I have a chance it wasn’t…( (because I’m a duck, not a person) But the game is cool))))
Thank you very much for playing. It's really hard to read your message with all your parentheses but you're a Duck typing so that's already pretty good for, just as I said, being a Duck. Thinking back about my developement pattern I actually think you are right and the killer might get stuck on trees. Huge L for me. The controls are bad because of the limitation but since the killer gets stuck on trees I suppose it's fair enough for both sides. Hahahha, have a great night/day!

The aesthetics are really nice on this one
Thank you very much for playing. I did really aim to make the graphics feel like a PSX game. I can't wait to play your game as soon as I'm home. Have a great night/day!
Cool game ,now imagine not knowing anything ,trying to get gas ,hearing some sounds ,seeing a friendly guy :D Trying to ask him for directions and get hit with a weapon :) I thought he was my friend D:
Thank you very much for playing. Haha, that wouldn't be very cool from a friendly Butcher. As they say "Butch or get Butched". I can't wait to play your game as soon as I'm home. Have a great night/day!
PSX style horror, really creepy - a great game. Good luck!
Thank you very much for playing. Have a great night/day!
Retro + horror = spooky AHHH game. Good game though
Thank you very much for playing. I believe that the controls, designed just like if I was smashing the keyboard with my a**, made the experience even spookier. I can't wait to play your game tomorrow. Have a great night/day!
