Really cool atmosphere. I really missed having some guidance on where I could escape to; I reached the bonfire but didn't know where to go after that. Keep up the hard work!

Cool game!! I liked the environment my feedback is that the environment couldve been a bit more dark but other than that it was all good.

I would appreciate if you play my game too!! 🩷🩷

Hi! Thanks, I will rate your game today too.

Got scared immediately and ran away, so far away, starting swimming, then ran off the map! Had fun though, and great graphics!

Hi! Thanks for playing

Ok, this is a solid game project! atmosphere is good, but it feels kinda empty, i suggest you can add more stuff and variety to it!

The killer is very good if you ask me! ofcourse, there are some bugs, but since even i use godot, even i have some bugs with the navigation meshes lol

One more thing is that, this game is not optimized, like i was lagging a lot in this game, so id suggest optimizing this game...

Overall, its a solid project, with A LOT of potential with future updates! good job!!!

Also could you be able to rate my game too? id really appreciate it :)

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I am aware of the optimization issues and the NavMesh bugs. I started too late(6 days before the deadline) + this my first game, so there is a lot to work on. I'll take a look at your game tonight. Good luck with your Godot projects!

YO! I would love to know your opinions on the game... was it good? was it bad? like that you know :)

I have to tell you, it’s the first time I’ve managed to get the good ending on my first try XD. I’m not sure if it was because of the terrain or what, but the enemy passed right next to me and then got stuck running in one spot. Later it detected me again. I’m not sure if it’s due to the AI navigation or the way the enemy tracks the player’s position.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback. The enemy getting stuck is a NavMesh bug I am currently fixing. The Al probably missed you because the detection settings are still too weak. I will increase the difficulty because getting the good ending on the first try should be much harder. Good catch on the navigation issues

intersting gameplay idea to have the killer just let you loose and hunt you dow

Interesting game!

On my first playthrough, I must have missed the truck, I ran so far down the road that I ended up going off the map. I was able to beat the game on my second attempt, though.

I liked the game overall. The AI was a bit janky and seemed to get stuck in the air at times, but it was still fairly tense. The bear trap definitely surprised me!

Great work overall!

Developer

Glad you liked it! This is my first ever project, so the Al and the map boundary issues are definitely on my list of things to fix. Good to hear the tension and the bear trap still landed.
