Amazing game, great visuals!!

Atmosphere reminds me of Dead Space which is amazing!

Chases felt intense!!

One thing is I expected more feedback when the gun shoots, or when the aliens die --giving that the game looked fairly polished-- but didn't really feel the impact.

Also I don't see the theme clearly but overall REALLY COOL! Seriously good job!!

+ I think you'd love the atmosphere of our game, feel free to check it out whenever <3

Developer

The theme is in the story but you have to get there lol, I plan on nerfing the game cause dear god. Thank you so much! I had some production issues during the last two days and had to forgo effects to have content so rest assured, I'm in completle agreement with your feedback! And I'll give your game a go as well!

Submitted

nice game and cool visuals and gameplay, but i don't see the reference to the theme honestly

Developer

It's in the story

Submitted

cool game! def has those Dead Space vibes u were going for B)

Submitted

This game really nails the spooky, Dead Space–inspired atmosphere, it made us feel genuinely uneasy in the best way! The level design and visuals are impressive, and the environment really sells the tension and space-horror vibe.

really beautiful graphics honestly!

A few issues popped up during our playthrough: insta-death moments can be frustrating, especially since there’s no option to skip the intro. It’d be great to see savepoints or checkpoints added, as some of us couldn’t fully reach certain objectives due to other minor bugs and level gaps. Healing felt a bit slow at times, and the challenge is high, but that adds to the thrill for those who enjoy tense gameplay. Also some tweaks to the ui would be good, since right now it's kinda stretched, but for a short time you did great!

Overall, a stellar, immersive horror experience with amazing atmosphere and solid visuals. Very fun, spooky, and memorable jam entry, excellent work!

Made me feel uneasy. I like that. Dead Space vibes and inspiration. Atmosphere works. I wasn't able to finish the game as I found a hole (probably forgotten gap in wall during level design) in the wall and of course I went there. :-) Causing me fall to the void and at that point I had to reset. Overall a good game. I enjoyed it.

Developer

Was there no texture (as in you had an open view into space) or was there no collider where you could walk through the wall?

Submitted

It was an open view into space. It looked like there was missing part of wall. So, I think there is missing wall object, therefore collider to prevent you from "falling" off the map. It was closer to an corner

Developer

Any remote idea where it is? I'm not seeing it

Submitted

I'm sorry for such a late response. If I'm correct, when you leave the room with the gun and healing pod, going straight and on second intersection turn right and very next intersection "room" has it right around the corner to right. On left side of that same intersection there are overlapping walls (meshes) causing flickering or I think it is called "Z-fighting".

Hey really good stuff here I wasn't able to get very far because I kept dying

everything looks really good cool stuff

Stellar as always, thanks for telling me about the game jam! giving dead space a run for its money!

Submitted

This might be too difficult for me! I could not reach all 4 reactors before getting killed! Healing also seemed to take a long time. I do enjoy the theme and spooky space vibes

Developer(+1)

Yeah I'm removing the starting enemies ebcause..dear god. I'm also increasing max health to ten but some enemies do 2 damage and the healing bay heals 1 hp every 3 seconds instead of ten seconds. Sorry about that! Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

This was awesome! A very nice homage to Dead Space! Amazing! I hope there's more to this someday!

Developer(+1)

Yeah this isn't even close to the full demo. I had to make a lot of cuts for the game jam. I also plan on having the full game out for halloween 2026

Submitted

I feel you.  2026 seems like a very long development time but to each their own.

Developer

I plan on it being a big game with  a lot of complex stuff and I never seem to give myself time.

Submitted

Fair enough

Submitted

Great atmosphere, does a great job of channeling it's inspirations. The overheat cooldown seemed to take a long time, and I didn't seem to be able to heal at the healing station. Also not entirely sure how well the game itself fits the theme, though maybe I just didn't get in far enough. Still an impressive amount made in the time frame👏

Developer(+1)

You gotta stay in it. it's 10 seconds per hit point. I plan on changing it but I can't until the jam is over

Submitted

Finally got around to play this one. Very high quality. Love the Dead Space inspiration. If you polish the text and the particle effects it could pass as a AA game.

i loved deadspace so i adored this aswell, great job! def rated, i'd love for you to rate/check out my game if you have the time. /jam/jamsepticeye/rate/3928723?after=40#post-14418594

I tried to download your game. But the system detects it as a virus. Could this be something related to codesigning issue?

Developer

It's just an antivirus bug, not sure why it happens. I've had that issue a few times

Submitted

Unfortunately I had the same issue. However I watched the trailer and that looks wild. Good on you for getting that submitted 

Submitted

A Dead Space inspired entry into the Jam?? That's what I'm talking about. I really liked this one, I can't believe this got done in the scope of the game. You're an absolute mad lad, well done with this one!

Developer

Oh my god it was exhausting but I got lucky and my weekend (thursday friday) was part of the jam

Amazing game! A Dead Space inspired horror nightmare! It's very challenging but the atmosphere and the gameplay are really exciting and pretty incredible for being made within 5 or less days!
