I liked the visual,it's very good-looking.Audio design needs more work than just step sounds and other sounds in the begiging,maybe some ambient.The map is huge and rooms are looking same,so i'm lost and didn't find the key,that's why i didn't complete it.Also fear factor is not too high,in the begining the game is really stressful because you must to find key immediately,but then enemies AI shows yourself.Enemies are stuck in the map and then you walk without parasites that trying to kill you.Also optimization,i know that optimizing Unreal game is difficult,FPS was normal,but I've had a lot of friezes.This game definitely have a huge potential, but you should fix a lot of problems i described.Good luck with your future projects!

Great work! Was a little too dark for me with my monitor at least

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll keep that in mind and maybe adjust the brightness for the next update.

This kinda gave me rough Outlast vibes, haha. I would love to see a bit more with the AI! Honestly, as much as I searched, I couldn't find the key. I did explore a lot though!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll work on improving the AI and make the key easier to find next time!

Quite a creepy atmosphere and a decent world, if a little cramped.  The deanos sat around don't move, which is creepy enough but picking up the power pills and distributing them doesn't end well.  Overall pretty good although the flashlight is like looking through a straw and I had to give up finding the key because it was giving me a headache.  Good effort.  10/10 would mutate deanos through a drinking straw again.

Thank you so much for the feedback! I’ll try not to make such mistakes next time.
