Awesome game!! I loveee the vibe of the city it looks so polished! Mr. Fear is alsoooo very well modeled as well! I love the sounds as well. I think it captured that ghost town feel really well with random sounds here and there just to spook me too! The gameplay is quite interesting and is quite fun capturing Mr. Fear with the camera, though I do find the difficulty of the game quiteee high! (it could also just be me with my skill issue). Maybe adding some indicators or anything to help the player find the tapes could work? But honestly, this game was great! Very cool execution on an interesting idea! Great work!

love the feedback! I was our level designer for the project, spending some 12 hours total building the final level. But full credit needs to be given to our artists, they worked so hard on getting the vision into the project.

Interesting concept. Loved seeing the spirits shadows flying around. I got the skeleton once but never again.

I was not able to finish it for some reason. I had one tape left and could only put it into one player and it said it could not load it.

Are you meant to be able to leave the city area and enter the void of white? If not, maybe seal it up. Could teleport the players to similar areas if you want the city to feel bigger (Like how PACMAN teleports from one side of the map to the other)

Good work. Looks and sounds quite spooky. Might want to add a volume systme to the options.

Thanks so much for playing, I have (hopefully) fixed the collision and tape bugs if you'd like to try again :)
