Thanks for playing and for the feedback, I definitely see what you mean about the white being overwhelming especially for a horror game. There's a balance between subverting what you would expect a horror game to look like while keeping everything visually clear that I haven't quite struck yet. I'm glad you enjoyed the experience overall :)
Wow this game is cool, I love the atmosphere you have built with the lighting and soundscapes, the game feels good to play, the only thing that was a little weird to me is the scale of the player character, it feels slightly too tall, though I only really notice this when passing through doorways so it's not such a big deal. Great job with this project!
Super creepy. Love the striking black and white aesthetic. The minimalism serves the game well. Love the biblical/eschatological references.
I'm not 100% sure if I'm playing the game right though. I press the hand podium in the central corridor, Azrael appears and I run to the other room (I assumed this was the exit the instructions talked about but I'm not sure). In the other room there is another hand podium so I press that one and then another angel appears and I run to the other end to another similar room (am I safe?). There's another hand podium here to so I press that one as well and another angel appears. So I'm running back and forth between rooms, but I'm not sure whether I'm doing what you intended or not. It could be very well I'm stupid, but I thought I would let you know my experience.
Anyway, great job! It's a really creepy atmospheric game.
Thank you for playing and for appreciating the themes! You've got the basic idea down with the podiums, it's a balancing act of attracting them to you so you can run through an area they were patrolling before. A hint is to always try and go towards the right of the map, the final exit is all the way to the right. I'm glad you enjoyed what you experienced though :)
