Ceri here!
At the start of the Spooktober Jam, I discovered the first sketches of the main cast of characters for your project while browsing through the hashtag for the jam. The concept of battling inner demons while solving a murder mystery was what drew me to your game as I'm a big fan of Occult Crime Police (which has a more comedic bent to it and is more spooky than out-right horror) and anything that has a strong focus on its narrative.
So I downloaded and read through the alpha demo today. Here's my thoughts
First Impressions
- I like how the slow reveal of what occured 4 months prior to the game's start plays out during Nick's first night in the cabin and if he chooses to look at the dead deer after he meets Grayson.
- Felix has quite the ominous air to him despite his courteous and dapper appearance. Definitely keeping my eye on this guy.
- Grayson is quite an oddball but has a fun personality and I see a lot of myself in her. Now I'm curious about her backstory
Questions
1. Will you be adding more options to the main menu (such as settings , extras and quit) in the full release plus a CG gallery and ending reference guude in the extras?
2. I think the title screen and other menu pages would look better iwith a dark grey or black color scheme with white or bright red lettering for the options to fit with the drama oriented mood of the game.
3. How many good and bad endings (no spoilers)?
4. Will the full release be 100% free?
I will return with a review of the full release when it comes out! Here's to you guys for drawing me into such an interesting story!
