I said it's an asset flip because i couldn't find anything original, visual or mechanics-wise. Usually, I find something good, but this is too simple for it being a demo. A demo has some new or interesting mechanic that makes it distinct and unique from other games. Im not saying it should have been a 10 hour experience for me to rate it good, i was saying that there could have been something to make it interesting for a short experience and excite people about what's coming.
Also just like you said, i don't mind free or paid assets. Making a game with some assets that don't belong to you is perfectly fine and i don't mind it at all, as long as it isn't stealing. Also i know these assets here aren't stolen, just sayin
The reason i said the game is 5% his, is because these free assets aren't his. It's only the simple programming.
The video shown is just supposed to poke fun at how not scary the game is. I mean, i just walked through the whole castle without being killed. The main point of a horror game is for there to be a threat, either real or psychological, but there wasn't any. That's the point of the video, just a showcase on what to stop the player from doing and to make me fearful. Just spamming a bunch of scary sounds isn't scary.
Also, do i really sound that hostile towards the developer? I just want to be informative and direct, sorry about hurt feelings i guess. I never meant to say that this game should stop its production, I'm saying it should focus on upgrading because it can be good.
Anything else i should answer?
