Theme interpretation and application
i made the game by using the theme from two game jam, one from this jam which is defective-generation and from another jam which is connections, by adding both theme to the game, i made a psychological horror game.

I don't play horror games, but I decided to give this one a try since it said it didn't have jump scares, I got jump scared anyway by just the sound effects XD.
Great job on making it spooky! The ghostly figures were a nice touch lol.
Thanks a lot for playing the game. I’m glad that you liked it. Rate the game and thanks again for the feedback 😁
Wow, the art in this game is spectacular! I finished it and it was great! I was expecting a jump scare or a fight, but I loved the game. ;)
I’m glad that you love the art. It is a psychological horror game, so there won’t be any intense jump scares or fighting.
The art style is consistent and the controls are easy to understand. I have some issues with collision when entering new areas or moving past different objects and I wish directions were less vague. But overall the psychological horror aspect are very unique and its refreshing to see in this game jam.
Thank you for playing and the collusion problems will be secured in the next update after the jam is over.
I liked the concept, it's always rare to have a horror metroidvania game, also to occur in a "basement/dungeon", pretty neat. But I don't know if I could call the genre to be "psychological horror", it would suit better as a horror game since I felt that it relied on a lot of gore for the setting, also for more feedback, I had some troubles with the hitbox in the doors and since the main character had a sword I anticipated to be able to use it in some way. But overall I really liked the ambience, it got a great tension, which caused me to get jumpy and get scared some times in the game.
Thanks for the great feedback! And sorry for the hitbox issue. It will be done by the next update. And once again for playing the game 😁
One of the strongest entries in the jam. And this game is really scary. The atmosphere here is top-notch. The psychological horror is conveyed very well. The visual work is very good. Especially that man who appears sometimes. He is so creepy. But the game has a very noticeable hitbox issue. I often found myself bumping into doorways. I'd also like to highlight the doors better.
Thank you for mentioning what’s missing, i’ll make sure to make it right. thank you for playing!
Look great but sorry man I didn't understand how to pass the third door, I recommend if you can put the controls in the page maybe I didn't know what was the interact button. Love the art style. I will appreciated if you play my game.
Sorry for the issue, if the third door you mentioned was the door comes after prison cell, try to go touching the wall up-down. And i’ll make sure to play your game.
Thanks man, I'll try to do it
Scary it scare me
HA!
