It's nice to see tributes to Amnesia still going around, but this game's a dissapointing mess. It's a fetch quest that makes you fetch 6 levers in a linear space, the enemies don't feel threatening since you can sprint forever and they cannot catch up to you, and the tinderboxes is the most pointless implementation of the mechanic I've ever seen considering your lantern is infinite and super effective.
Not what I expected from the creator of Missing Hiker
You did the right thing by making a web build. People are much more likely to play a browser game than download a game. The games industry is very over-saturated right now and there are thousands of insanely good indie games on itch. You have to view it from the consumer's perspective. They choose which games to give their time to, and in all honesty your game is just not very good.
Everyone starts somewhere though, and getting feedback early on is super important. I think the best approach for that kind of feedback is to join a game dev community on discord and ask for feedback there, rather than expecting the average consumer to take the time to not only play your game but write feedback on it.
Hmmm... You're off to a good start but there's a lot missing here.
Firstly, labyrinths are confusing and rarely ever make for compelling gameplay. There's also no buildup so there's nothing scary about actually finding the monster as I didn't even get time to immerse myself in the game. Running into a dead end is pretty much game over, and there's no way to tell if it's going to be a dead end or not because it's a maze.
Not bad though, the sound design is good.
Pretty spooky! I really dig the VHS aesthetics. It's so common yet you're one of the few that did it right.
Two bugs I'm experiencing. The first is that if you enter the apartment while walking the footsteps loop for the rest of the game.
Another is that I occasionally had my view spun around 180 degrees for no reason. Happens about once every 30 seconds.
