really good game! im glad to have finally played it. i enjoyed my playthrough; very creepy, challenging and so interesting it kept me hooked til the end.

i love whiteface. his design is so creepy and simple. it's what stuck with me all these years since first seeing the game. the other graphics and sound design were also excellent in making an unsettling game.

the core gameplay was enjoyable, but the file interaction bits felt out of place. they became more of a nuisance as the game went on and interrupted the game's naturally creepy atmosphere. i think they were a neat gimmick, but ill-fitting for this game. i feel the game would have been equally challenging and creepy without them.

i thought some of the ways to unlock the achievements were creative and humorous. but i disagree with making the player earn all of them to see the final ending. i could understand the requirement if they added to the narrative or ending, but they felt like easily missed easter eggs that contributed nothing story-wise.

i was disappointed to see the game's effective subtle horror overtaken by obnoxious noises towards the end. but i really liked the final ending where you explore the uncorrupted areas. it was a neat resolution that i can't recall seeing in another horror game.
