The idea isn't to hunt the monster down, but to evade it and escape. Weapons are there to scare the monster away, but you need to dump out a lot of bullets in order for that to happen
I do agree that we should've made it more clear on which character opens which doors, but sadly, we ran out of time before we could do that. There's a tutorial page in the main menu that explains the door system though
Thank you for trying out our game and we hope you enjoyed playing it
