Spoopfest build was rough around the edges but I definitely had fun figuring it out. The reward at the end was very cool although I wish there were more camera controls and that there was a POV view.

Firstly, the lighter should autoquip to the hotbar like the other lightsources. It was annoying starting every run doing that until I figured out where to go and no longer needed it. Also it sucks and I'd recommend a better way to limit it than just having a poor radius. Maybe only being able to use it for a few seconds at a time (with a cooldown) or something?

The hints should be made more prominent as I only noticed them a while into my first successful run. Also I'm not sure if the equippable candle is in this build.

Everyone else has said it but the enemy in the first part is a real pain to avoid unless you know the trick. Unsure if the lockers were much help because they were too fast and pretty much an instakill to an unaware player. Not sure about the second enemy in that area as I managed to sneak past them without issue.

The other enemies were fine as they were slower and it was easier to get into a hiding spot.

Doors should have visual feedback when unlocked because I can see players getting confused.

I think it should be more obvious that solving the vent puzzle opens the door to the next area. It just spawns a bunch of t-posing NPCs and I didn't make the connection until my second playthrough when I was doing a speedrun. Also when you write the push hint text there should 100% be a pushies joke.

There's obviously a bunch of other stuff like the item interact texts being mostly wrong and a large part of the second part being unfinished (nothing interactable upstairs and the asylum area with the pig is mostly just a few hidden items with some cool décor) but that's not really a big issue atm.

Ps. If anyone needs a walkthrough, I've made a shitty vague map at https://imgur.com/a/zcvMKZ0

i cant read it

What part? Have you tried scrolling down?

Note that there's no walls or anything, just locations of points of interest in relation to each other.

Hey, congrats on completing it and it hasn't even been 24 hours since the release.

I did go over your notes and found them agreeable. The hscene at the end is going to get more animation work and have multiple camera angles options other then the 360° default. The equipable candle is in that build and you need to open up your inventory (in a spot away from thorn) and combine it with the lighter.  I think making the lighter just about useless other then  candles interactions was a mistake. It and the lantern are getting buffed. The reason it didnt get hotkey was the original '1'  hot key was going to be a different item that sadly had to get cut to honor the deadline. I will let you guess what item that was. As you discovered the second area while it looks good needs some further tweaking and player guidance.

Thanks for responding!

Also, one last thing. It wasn't initially obvious to me that you could read examined papers by pressing the E key. I just assumed that it was all pictogram based until a bit into the game.

I know it's always listed at the bottom but maybe put "press "E" to read this!" on one of the first pages or something?
