I am flattered, but I honestly think it was more luck than skill. I had some strange texture issues too, where a lot of the plants would have a clear, square black background when I shone my flashlight on them, so I assume the game was bugged out a bit.
Going in for another run soon, hoping to see if I can run into the monster!
I don’t know if the game bugged out on me or I was just exceptionally lucky, because I found all five people and made it out without meeting any monster at all: on my first go too. Amazing PSX graphics adaption, though, and the sound design was very thorough too.
I have to play it again, though, to see if I can meet this fabled monster all the other comments are talking about.
