it's scary 💢!! which means it's perfect for this jam, loved playing it! congrats on delivering it!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you loved it😁
As soon as I saw you could get in the lockers...
Truly horrifying🤣
The unique walking animations make the game creepy. Nice!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it😁
Good game. The atmosphere is scary. Art and sounds are good. It's cool that the monster sees the flashlight when it's on. The controls are unusual, but they feel unfinished. My character moved in jerks and sometimes stood still when changing direction abruptly. When you have to run away from the monster, it's especially scary :D.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it😁
I completed the game, and I think every aspect of it is fantastic and truly impressive.
Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me, I appreciate it greatly 😄
very nice visuals, voice acting is well done! impressive work, i like the charm of the simple animations. in the beginning with the tutorial, i couldn't figure out a way to get rid of the tutorial text to read the first white eyeball icon as the tutorial text was displayed over that text.. great job! sound design is very good and the various fx add a nice level of polish
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it😁
As for getting rid of the tutorial text, it says at the bottom "Press TAB to toggle this text" lol
lol....... oops
Great art, 10/10 voice acting, amazing aesthetic and atmosphere. I only wish the walk was a tad smoother but since its not like the monster is much faster, its fine! I'm sure it was difficult to make a ragdoll animation like that, I sure couldn't. Great job!
Thank you so much, I am so glad you liked it and I really appreciate all your kind words😁
Also yeah it was really hard to set that up lol, it took like 2 of the jam days alone just to set up walking to the right, especially because I used this game as a learning experience for that exact feature🤣
Cool game! Love the ragdoll walk. Really creepy and atmospheric, and very scary when I got caught. Great work!
Thank you! I 'm so glad you liked it😁
Best walk animation I've seen so far.
Thank you, it's truly magical🤣
Really polished game! Love the spooky effects, especially the static when the player approaches the monster! Great atmosphere and story!!
Thank you so much! I put a lot of effort into the polish and atmosphere so it's really nice to see that recognized😁
The fact that we can’t see directly through the windows adds a touch of weight: the text gives free rein to our imagination! There’s something satisfying about the juicy effects of the monsters closing in on the player, killing the monster (I promise I didn’t do it the second time!) and the archaic movement of the characters. At any moment, I could have had another monster jumpscare out of a locked door haha. I like the sound detail at the end when we’ve decided to kill the “monster”.
I can’t really find any bad points, except that I’d have liked it to have lasted longer and that I sometimes get my feet stuck when I’m moving forward, which requires a little step backwards to unblock. No big deal.
Thank you so much! Reading that made me so happy, I really appreciate all the kindness🤩
Very engaging and atmospheric game. Nice graphics and sound design, with text elements giving a sense of forboding. Good work.
Thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed it😁
I just released another bug fix patch 😁👍
I liked your game, the story looks horrible and the entity looks very Slenderman I really like the animation of your character when he walks, it looks like he's drunk lol
I'm so glad to hear you liked it!😁
I have a bad habit of making a lot of my game's stories very tragic🤣
Had fun playing this! The animation are so goofy it gives a unique feel to the game. I had to use the gun once, but it felt very nice, I wanted to shoot more! hehe Good work
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I did my best to make the gun feel impactful and fun to use 😎
I also plan on eventually making an extended version of the game with a new section of the Asylum containing more "creatures" and maybe even a sawed off shotgun too!
Nice ! Honestly a good horror game !
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it😁
Wow, fantastic! Love the atmosphere, the lore, the everything! Good job!
Thank you so much! I'm so happy you loved it🤩
Hard to believe this is a solo project, so polished. Wow! I love this style of horror, reminds me of detention.
Thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear that🤩
Good game, it's gloomy, it's scary, it has a plot twist! Although I didn't quite understand what main character meant in the end of the game.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad to hear you liked it😁
(Lore Spoilers Ahead)
As for that lore bit, there is a lot of hidden details throughout the notes and other reading in the game that all come to the conclusion that the Rowan Walker(aka the player)'s brother died and that the grief drove him mad/insane. In the good ending, when the player finds his brother's grave he comes to reality and in the end decides that he really does need help to get over his grief. Rather than the alternative, since in the bad ending he ends up shooting the monster (actually a asylum staff worker) since he is hallucinating and when he gets to the grave the grief overcomes him and he ends up offing himself when the police arrive to arrest him for the asylum staff worker's murder.
I just fixed the bug where sometimes going into a room and moving too early would make all the players joints backwards😁👍
