Pretty solid game for your first time, simple but clear graphics, the fog was a bit distracting for me, maybe you could have a simple ground texture and apply a slowly moving fog effect, it would be a simple but strong improvement. The background music was very atmospheric, went great with the mood.
There are some minor improvements which would make it more player-friendly in my opinon:
- Add the floating "e to interact" instruction to everything I can interact with. If only some of them have it (like the gravestones, but not the lamppost), I'll need to keep pushing it to find interactable stuff, while if it's consistent, I don't need to worry about that.
- It wasn't obvious for me that I need to keep talking to the police officer after they told me that the area is closed and I assumed that it was just an expositional warning. This resulted in me running around all over the place trying to find anything interesting, but because I did not interact with the policeman, I could not interact with the lamp and the boy gave me no quest, I it was just wandering around aimlessly.
Overall, nice work, keep it going!
