It was simplistic but it was fun to figure out the loayout of the store while being chased by SpookerManager, the fact that the list of items is random really help to enjoy every attempt, nice work !

Developer

Awesome, thanks for playing :)

I enjoyed the game but I don't think the night manager liked me back

One minute to slap the list together is good for urgency, but I think a few more markers in the store would make it less frustrating to find the items. The short time limit really does make information fly in one ear and out the other in a blind panic. 

Would play again, bringing all my coupons

Developer

thanks for the feedback and thank you for streaming this:) It was really fun to watch.
I wanted to make it hard so people would experience the jump scare/get frustrated and try again, but modes of difficulty is def something to consider adding here

Fun game! I believe that i needed a bit more time than 1 minute before he starts running at me like crazy,  but that might be just me. i believe that with a bit more work, it could turn out truly awesome!

Nice entry!  I really liked the idea of the randomly generated list. It reminds me of this cool game called 'Night of the Consumers'. The game felt very scary because it made me constantly move away from the creature. Maybe you can add something that the player can use to slow down the enemy. Great game! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

I thought the footsteps were mine at first.

I would have liked it if the signs were on either side of each isle instead of in the dead center. Also, I feel some ambient droning sound or something could have been nice to make things more ominous.

Overall its a simple game but still pretty fun. 

Developer

thanks for the feedback!

Monster scared me :'( Really enjoyable to play though, love how the grocery list was randomized every time. 

Developer

Thank you! Ideally there would've been 50 + products to have to find to really make no two games the same, maybe in the next version!

I loved the creepy and chaotic nature of the walk animation for the monster I thought it was a good twist on just the robotic like movements that you see with most monster AI in games like these but everything about the game was well executed! I feel some form of ambiance music would be a nice touch since at times I didnt feel much pressure and forgot about the timer. maybe the music could speed up or get more distorted as your time runs out or the monster nears  on you.

overall I really enjoyed this game keep up the great work :D

Developer(+1)

thank you so much! Yes a distorted generic supermarket sound track would be a great idea! I will be sure to put it in the V2 :)

Submitted(+1)

Amazing :D I can't wait to see what you end up doing with V2!
