I really like the visuals and the fixed camera. It really felt like classic survival horror.
The only big issue I had is that it's really easy to die in unfair ways. In the first room with the rat, I died to it because I couldn't figure out how to close the note after reading it. Soon after, I died several times due to walking off a ledge because I had no idea where my character was (see screenshot).
Eventually I got the "entry 3 from linwood" note and I couldn't get it to go away, so I couldn't progress.
Camera angle reminds me of good old Alone In The Dark:)
thanks!!! haven’t gotten a chance to play ur game yet looking forward to it!
The fixed camera angles give the horror vibes, the controls give the "I'm a shambling undead" game-feel, and the stomping on rats gives the fun. The bridge in particular gave me some "Shadow Temple" from Ocarina of Time vibes! Great entry!
thanks for the comment!
The camera angles are a really cool effect,
I couldn't figure out where to go after the note. If I walk too far from the camera angle I die from something offscreen.Edit: Immaculate vibes. Love the visual style.
thanks for playing! don’t you worry many more will get got by the bridge of darkness
(If you walk straight past the left side of the light after the note you won’t die) we will try to fix that
Alright I'll be back thanks for the tip
