Excellent work! I'm delighted you stayed with static camera shots instead of using panning cameras everywhere. Combat was fine, though it was difficult to see whether the player character auto-aimed from long distances - once I knew he auto-faced the enemies on drawing the gun, it made combat a lot easier. 

Animations are fine, though obviously the enemy walking animations could do with some work (but you have limited time!). The environmental design is excellent for the time you had - you get a very clear impression of a cold-weather outpost. Sound effects are great, the gunshots and footsteps are very crisp. The models are well-built and textured, lots of character.

The description of the virus in the records was great - detailed, and a little spooky! Overall, I really enjoyed the game!

If you want to talk to more people about this project or just fixed multicam in general, consider checking out the Fixed Camera Appreciation Society!

This was pretty good. I love the story and the artwork. Aiming's damn near impossible. I thought the zombies had way too much health and poor visual feedback until I realized they died in 1 hit and I'd just managed to miss 20 times in a row. The ambush at the end was a pretty decent escalation but they were very easy to juke so it ended up being a little anticlimactic. This is a solidly-told self-contained little narrative, good job!

Loved this one! Summary of video: unlimited ammo makes game less scary. But was absolutely enjoyable!

Please, could you put the windows label on your game?  I use itch app and it doesn't download it without it.  Thanks!

Thank you!

It is a fine game!  There are some blind angles, but works ok.  I really liked all the "pages" I found, like one of the old RE.  I would like to see it expanded, perhaps with not infinite ammo.  Good work!

The gun and shooting is great in this game, loved the dense atmosphere and it kinda fits both themes. great work!
