Really enjoyed playing this game
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Bro you gotta tell me how you got those graphics! I loved the pixelation and stuff. I did in-fact forget what I was supposed to do for a bit cuz radio man is hard to understand, but it wasn't too much of a problem. I don't think the restart button works right once you get in the car, I think I may have been softlocked once.
I am truly heartwarmed by your expression of appreciation for the graphics, I loved it too! Unfortunately, I am not completely sure on how the post processing and filter was made, since our other programmer Mikolaj did that stuff. I'll ask him for you and post the response here, thanks for playing! :D
At the very start, I somehow found an M16 in the house, and it seemed like that wasn’t supposed to happen, but I ended up using all the ammo right at the beginning anyway. By the end of the game, I was just walking around with a pistol. At first, I got lost and didn’t understand where to go, so I followed the road and reached a gas station where there was clearly an interactive object, but I couldn’t pick it up. After that, I just wandered into the forest looking for content. After some time, I finally stumbled upon a path and reached the tower! I also went back to the gas station a few times because I didn’t understand what to do next. But eventually, I figured it out and drove the car to the helicopter X). The game seemed simple, and in some moments, it wasn’t entirely clear what to do. But despite my criticism, the game is still good, and I enjoyed it! Great work!
Oh yeah you were actually supposed to find the AR15 in the house, that was intentional. Originally you'd find it at the gas station but I ended up deciding it'd make more sense to find it in the house so that you could fight your way through to the gas station. I'm sorry to hear that you ran out of ammo early on, even though we wanted players to be somewhat aware of ammo management nobody ran out of ammo during playtests. If you believe that it's a bug, I'll investigate it. Congratulations on finding the tower! I intended for the sign in front of you at spawn to guide you in where you'd want to go, if you felt like that wasn't clear enough then I'll investigate that as well. Thanks for your feedback and support!
Nice!
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Just tried out the game, love the comic-style art for the cutscenes and the retro feel in game takes me right back to the ps1 days! I found for myself it does feel a little easy to get lost and forget what the objective is. An objective UI could have been a helpful addition. Overall great work!!
Thanks for the feedback! I have intended to add an objective UI but I wasn't able to due to time constraints. I'll check with the SCREAM JAM admins if I could as part of a bug fix due to demand, and if I can I'll update the game with the next patch to be expected today or tomorrow. Thank you for playing!
Love the retro vibe, pretty scary and good voice acting. I don't know what happened to the girl though.
The daughters are in the car :)
great project! nice work and good luck!
Thanks, you too!
This was fun! Really loved the retro feel. The weapons could have had more feedback, but overall this game was cool! (and also spooky)
Thanks for your feedback, I'll look into making the controls more instructive. I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
Loved playing this! Was super enjoyable and was such a good experience!
Thanks for the compliment, I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
As someone who also made an old retro style horror game, you SUPER nailed the look! Good job!
Thanks a lot for the compliment, but I'd have to credit Mik for it who did the shaders and post processing!
Took me a while to find everything but at the end it was a really good experience. i knwo its too much but maybe a map or something to see what i need to do it would increase the user experience. Besides that the voice acting and sounds where great and the invisible zombie where a pain in the head. Really liked the game
I'm glad you enjoyed the experience, we were going to make a map at the start but couldn't finish due to time constraints. The invisible zombies shouldn't be as hard as it currently is as there are some bugs that we're in the process of patching. Thanks for your feedback!
Loved the way the story's being told and entertaining voice overs. Found it very hard to navigate using dirt paths since they'd split so much. Combat was fine, the same zombie moaning gets reretitive however.
Good effort
I'm glad you enjoyed the game! We'll look into the zombie sounds to see if there's anything we can do about it, and I'll take your experience with the dirt path into account regarding path design. I originally wanted to make the path a bit challenging, almost maze like where the player would have to backtrack with some trial and error, and I guess I was wrong about that. Thanks for the feedback!
Nice game. I enjoyed the aesthetic, and the voice acting.
I did find a bug where if you restart during the car section, then you will be in the car when you restart the game, making it impossible to complete.
Hi, thanks for pointing out the bug! Technically, the logic behind the code should actually enable you to complete the game which you can see for yourself by driving down the dirt path. I believe that it was part of an unfinished objective that was culled to meet the jam deadline, I'll look into fixing it, thanks!
Cute game, I love the look and feel of it! The menu buttons wouldn't work for me though, resume worked but restart and quit didn't.
Thanks for the input, I'm glad you liked it! I'm aware of the menu buttons issue, that's a bug that we're resolving. It should be resolved within a couple hours, I'll reply to this comment once it is.
I fixed the aforementioned bugs a few hours ago and went to sleep, apologies for forgetting. Menu buttons should work now!
The voice acting was great (including the zombie sounds if that counts). I also really liked the pixelated graphics and intro comic. My only issue is it's pretty hard to figure out where you're supposed to go next, but overall it was a fun little FPS :]
Edit: Forgot to mention I also loved how you couldn't have the flashlight and gun out at same time, it was interesting having to use the bullet fire to see sometimes
Thanks for playing! I'm really glad you enjoyed that, and I'm also glad that my intent of using bullet flash as a mechanic actually worked as a mechanic and not a "workaround" haha! I didn't recognise how player direction would be percieved until recently so yeah, I'm definitely lacking a bit in that department and I'm really grateful that you pointed that out!
Indeed, our voice actor is a legend.
Nice game!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Yeah, also got lost in the woods eventually, but after finding the radio tower and managing to have an amazing conversation with the department of defense who will compensate me for blowing up my house. Had a lot of fun, and really enjoyed the introuction comics, great art and story right from start!
Haha thanks! I really appreciate the kind words, our whole team poured their hearts and souls into the making of this game so I'm really, really glad that you've enjoyed playing it!
I did like the atmosphere in the game. I ended up getting lost in the woods. Interesting game. Good Job!
Thanks! And also, you can find your way to the radio tower through the dirt path, remember to use your flashlight!
I’m having trouble figuring out how to play. It would be helpful to include a guide or instructions for the controls. The only keys that seem to work for me are 1, 2, W, A, S, D, F, and LShift. I think I picked up a gun, but the shader effects make it hard to see.
Also, I’m confused about why I can’t call 911. There’s a cell tower behind the forest.
There are instructions for the controls in the game description. 1, 2 and 3 are the weapon switch keys. And also, the game is intentionally dark, you have to make use of your flashlight. The cell tower is out of order, you have to repair it by going up to it.
oooh, I missed those in the description, thanks.
np! have fun!
and also, remember to follow the dirt trail! people who didn't have gotten lost many, many times....
I got lost already. Thanks for the hint. Also, this game needs subtitles.
Well, in that case here's another hint. Look at the dirt trail and follow the same trail when you go back. And yeah, I agree that this game needs subtitles. We would've put them in if we had more time, but since it was the first time for a lot of us we kind of had to make a decision between what we'd put in and what we wouldn't. Thanks for the feedback!
