Neat concept! I think I had a bug on my first run where i spawned into a big empty black void unless the maps are random. I got completely stuck and had to restart. Everything after that was working perfectly!

Game is cool but the moster on the final tape gets your same identical velocity and i don't think that's fair. Good job on the entry!

Nice take on the theme, the gimmick worked well. It got quite suspenseful when the monster showed up, also supported by clever sound design. I felt like the art style was combining too many different things from neon Tron-like colors to low poly 3D. Maybe less would have been more here. Overall, really nice game - good job!

Simple but effective, feels like a playable version of one of those analog horror videos where the victim is represented with caution sign stickman. I like how one of the tapes tricks you into thinking there's a second creature by playing distorted noises.

Neat concept! I like the echolocation machine. The monster seemed to just run to where I used the echolocator, so they never seemed to be much of a threat.
