How did you implement the Theme: Death Game in your game?
I implemented the "Death Game" theme by trapping the player in an isolated rural school controlled by a sinister, corrupting "Gamemaster." Survival depends on a lethal twist of childhood schoolyard rules, forcing the player into a high-stakes psychological game where a creepy doll stalks them the exact second they break line of sight.

Did you implement any of the Bonus Challenges, and if so, which ones?
Yes there's a gamemaster giving insights time to time but the voice corrupts strangely sometimes.

Does your game contain AI-generated assets?

No

I liked the atmosphere of the game, very creepy ^_^

I didn't think this far. This is my first review, and I'm already pissin' my pants. I'm not a horror guy. The game was alright, it has content. The flashlight was quite neat, and I liked that the cursor showed what could be interacted with. The atmosphere was great! I filled up the van, but I am not sure if anything was supposed to happen or if there was a next step. I found three problems. The first problem, the default volume is quite high, and you can't escape the generator's UI other than putting in a code. The second problem is that you have to jump onto the foundation of the building, and the table in the spawn area has no hitbox. The third problem is that the game simply has no death, although I admire your attempt to save that in the response. This is a neat game, 6/10.

Thanks a lot for the feedback, this is my first ever attempt at making a game hence there were many issues with this one. I'll try my best to incorporate those changes.


Thank you for taking your time, appreciate it.

Unfortunately I didn't get to play this game. The Baldi character is a well established horror character so it seemed like a promising game. It looks good, the ambient sounds and narrator voice are creepy. The tasks are simple, but give no indication if they are actually completed. I cleaned the classroom, I collected the fuel, and I entered the code on the generator. Nothing changed, I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but nothing happened at all. I looked all around for quite a while but couldn't find anything new so I had to quit. The creepy doll that looks at you when you look away is neat, but without any progression, there was nothing else to do. 10/10

Thank you so much for reviewing my game!

Actually once you collect the fuel, you have to hover your cursor over the van's fuel cap, and it should prompt you allowing you to refill it. That should help with the progress.

Also a quick heads up, there is a rare bug where the narrator's final voice lines might not trigger even after you complete all the tasks. It usually works perfectly, but I wanted to mention it just in case.

Thanks again for your time and feedback, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your playthrough!
