Excellent presentation.  There were so many nice little bits of polish you put in there like the tutorial voice overs.  The audio design was fantastic and created a really eerie atmosphere.  I got stuck though after I used a battery to open a crawl space but then I reached a ledge in the crawl space I couldn't jump over.  Overall this was really impressive!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed the presentation :) 


Sorry you couldn't proceed past that I wonder if it's a bug but it was close to the end anyway atleast I guess. Thank you.

  • This retro effect could be more mild. My eyes got tired fast :( I would compare it with blur effect. Some people just turn it off first they start playing new games.
  • Controls description is badly positioned because you have to figure out how to get to this description :)
  • Flashlight could be more bright.

Otherwise, I liked playing your game. It's being 3D is already deserves some praise. The environment, animation and the implementation of the virtual voice is fantastic. Have you made all the props by yourself?

Hey thanks for the feedback and i'm glad you liked playing it. Yeah I uh kinda ran out of time for adding some options, so controls and retro filter control didn't really pan out.

Ah no for this jam I had help of a buddy of mine for the asset side of things, I did some things, he did some things.  He for example made the awesome alien stuff as a highlight

  • Nice art style and vibes with the glowing lights, background ambience 
  • I like how you activate low gravity and backtrack through the same earlier parts which are now different.
  • I didn’t expect to crouch on C (ctrl is commonly used)
  • I didn’t progress past the vent in the second level, it looked like a doorstep I couldn’t jump over. The game was interesting and I would have played further if I knew how to.

Thank you :)

Ah the battery slot next to it would have opened it, but you were close to the end anyway. Also yeah maybe i should have included ctrl, I always like having it at c personally but I should definitely keep in mind ctrl is common for the future haha.

Really dark, really hard to look. The details in this game is moderately good and the retro filter make the game looks nicer but also make it harder to look :P. I sometimes doesn't know the purpose of the keys and items picked up during the gameplay.

I wish I could find more good thing to say about this game, but I would say the game looks nice. Good job.

Developer

Thanks for playing, appreciate the feedback. Yeah I am most happy about the graphics aswell. Horror level design isn't my forte

Love the environment that was built and the music fits it so well.  Also the arm animation for viewing the oxygen level is so badass lol

Developer

Thanks glad you liked that it was definitely some of my favorite stuff too
