Creeped me out so much!
Awesome!
Pros and cons are down below) Check out my video here (the game is the 2d there):
Advantages:
1. The spooks were pretty cool, I especially liked that you cut off the escape routes. Even though the player can not move, that was terrifying.
2. The pacing was cool. I love how the game manipulated the way the player looked so something would happen in the different direction. That is a nice game deisgn)
Disadvantages:
1. Maybe it would be cool to see the monster more, to see it come closer to you. Maybe it would be awesome if there was a spook involving your blanket (like something under it like in the old Grudge).
2. It was really strange that all this stuff happens and the main character just tries to fall asleep again and again. No panic, no second thoughts, no screams. Maybe you can consider explaining the lore a bit more at the start, for example you could use the sleep paralysis concept making the player hide from spooks by closing their eyes or something like that.
Overall:
Enjoyed that a lot! It gave me good bit of spooks so I am happy) Still, I think the whole concept is a bit weird and unexplained that is why I rate the game 4/5 for creativity but 5/5 for gameplay because it was good. The game has so much potential! I would like to see more projects from you and I hope my rating will help you in your jams!
Hope my feedback was useful!
Nice game. Simple and small but fun to play. Very creepy.
Thanks!
Wasn't sure when I could or couldn't open my eyes with space bar. Also submitted to multiple Game Jams so not sure if this was done in the required time frame.
You can only wake up after each sound plays so that you can't see what's happening until it's already happened. This game was made within the time constraints of all the game jams. Sorry for the confusion.
Ooo creepy and atmospheric, I like it :D
Thank you!
Wow, amazing. Very good atmosphere and sounds, works very well alltogether. As someone mentioned before, i didnt want to open my eyes in the game after hearing the sound. Awesome
Thank you! Glad I could give you a good scare!
Awesome! Very scary horror! The atmosphere is better than AAA horror games!
Wow, thank you! I appreciate it!
Anyone playing this game should definitely put on headsets and play it in full screen. Turn off the light if you think you are brave enough 😉
All the sound effects felt real. After hearing some sounds I felt like not opening pressing space bar again 😆.
Nice game though👍.
Thanks for the comment! I put a lot of work into making the sound effects, so I'm glad they worked out!
