Great use of PS1 style graphics and UI, and mechanically solid. Really enjoyed this spooky penguin adventure :)
Running around as a cute pingu, with a wizard hat and an icepick, running over ghosts and spiders was just plain fun :D
I died one time running to another area, so off camera it simply went "you died" lol :D i had to alt+f4 to exit and restart the game, not sure if this was intended but that's how I solved it :D
Second attempt I ran through and managed to escape! had to alt+f4 to exit from this screen as well.
Had there been a sound when you bumped into monsters it would've made that part even more hillarious! This game has potential for very fun aspects with just a few more tweaks, sounds and a few more hints on what the controls are when you load in. But overall it was fun and with 3-4 random key presses one can assume the controls as you chose to use "well known" controls :D
Well done!
Thank you!! Having to press alt+f4 was due to time constraints. There were a few bugs and things I wanted to add, but I simply didn't have the time and needed to abruptly end. I plan on releasing another version with some of your criticisms addressed:)
This is such a cool juxtaposition of cutesy PS1 games and classic survival horror! It has a really unnerving feel to it, similar to ARGs like Shipwrecked64. I felt the UI was a solid callback to the classics, and the way things were assembled mechanically made great sense.
A truly unique horror experience - well done!
