Absolutely!

Thanks! I’ve been working on an update where you can find a clue about what the correct sequence is.

Thank you! I've added a few things to it over the past few days. I will upload a new version this weekend once the voting is done.

So I did a few experiments to see if I could reduce the GPU utilization. I have a 3090 and am playing the game on my primary monitor, which is an LG 120hz 38" widescreen. I'm not limiting the frame rate on the GPU and have Vsync set to Fast. I had a suspicion the grass foilage might be part of the issue. I think these tests confirmed that is true.

1Game as uploaded, with grass foilageFPS 75, 99% FPS 63, GPU Utilization 98%
2Game as uploaded, no grass foilageFPS 108, 99% FPS 98, GPU Utilization 97%
3Game limits FPS to 60, with grass foilageFPS 60, 99% FPS 55, GPU Utilization 82%
4Game limits FPS to 60, no grass foilageFPS 59, 99% FPS 57, GPU Utilization 54%
5Game limits FPS to 120, with grass foilageEffectively same as 1
6Game limits FPS to 120, no grass foilageEffectively same as 2

So I'll see about fixing that in the next patch. :-)

Thanks! I think there might be an issue with either UE5 or something I've inadvertently done. Another person reported the same high GPU utilization. I asked about this in a few Discords, and people generally think UE5 is more GPU-hungry than UE4. Some even referred to that behavior as being typical for UE5.

Thanks!

Properly creeped out. Thanks!

This is so well done. Enjoyed playing it and could see you making this into a longer game.

Great idea for the theme and well made. Love the artwork and audio. 

I really enjoyed playing this one. Great atmosphere and properly creepy. Thanks for making it!

Thanks!

I wanted to play this one, but all it showed me was a white screen with piano music playing in the background.

Thanks! Appreciate you playing it.

Thanks for trying it out!

Thanks! Was fun to make it over the weekend.

I love this so much!

Thanks!

Thanks! I enjoyed making it. Eerie was one of the goals.

Thanks! Was fun to make and there are likely more than a few ways that short story could be interpreted.

Thanks!

Send help. I'm still stuck in the maze. Great job!

Enjoyed this one. You definitely made me feel cold. Can't wait to see your next game!

I really like the mood you established for this game. It was highly enjoyable to experience. Can't wait to see what you create next!

Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. This was fun to make.

What video card is in your computer? I wish I had time to add some graphic settings so maybe it wouldn't be so laggy for you. I had a few people play it before publishing and they didn't report similar issues. Sorry!

What a fun game to play! I really enjoyed the overall story and scenery. Keep making games. Can't wait for the next one!

Thanks! I appreciate the thorough critique. There are definitely a lot of places you could take a concept like this. Especially darker places. I did though want to keep this fairly light hearted while trying out some subtle horror elements. Your feedback is very helpful.

Thanks for the feedback and the video. It’s very helpful.

Thank you.

Thanks I really appreciate it and thanks for the video. Hope all is well!

Thank you! It’s funny how a cardboard cut out can be scary. Who knew? Thanks for providing feedback and for making the video.

Thanks! Glad you loved the posters. I had a lot of fun making those. There is a lot of source material to work with there.

I appreciate the feedback. It’s all been really helpful in understanding what works and what doesn’t. Thanks for taking the time to play it and for letting me know what you think!

Thanks! It’s fun watching people from different countries and backgrounds play this. I appreciate the video.

Thanks! Was definitely going for unsettling and subtle humor. Appreciate the thoughts and video.

Thank you. I will definitely check it out. I do think there is a lot more I could do here. I like that idea.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it as it is quite different.

Thanks! I’ll check it out. Appreciate you making the video and playing.
