I think all of our elements came together to set a cool scene. The dust motes were a bit much for me, if those were intended to be mimic spores or something maybe give them a weird color. Otherwise, shooting, flashlight, etc all felt and looked engaging. Nice work1

Nice concept! Every object became a suspect. Mission failed)

The controls are really good, and the atmosphere is really nice and polished. Bravo!

Very smooth gameplay, and nice polished environment! The only thing I would say is that the dust particles were a bit too big and noticeable; they should be more subtle. Great job!

Developer

You're right! Thanks for the feedback!

Good game, it's intuitive and the controls are simple.

One small bug I've noticed is that the light doesn't always point straight ahead, but otherwise it's great.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!
It was supposed to feel like you are holding a lantern, it points to where your crosshair is pointing, but I couldn't find a model for that (also ran out of time), so it really looks weird now..
