Game is really fun, looking forward to see where this project goes.
Gunplay is real snappy. Everything looks and feels super polished.
Incredible job! The dithering effect and coloring was absolutely gorgeous. I really enjoyed the monster design, especially the animation. The gameplay was super fun, but I never really ran out of any resource. The last section was fun after realizing the note wasn't just something creepy but some gameplay advice lol. Great job!
Thank you !! Ye I wrote a shader that reduces the colours on-screen to a 64 colour palette and downscaled the viewport to create the pixelation effect. I think it worked quite well :)
And you're right, I need to make the game more challenging, with less abundance of resources. Thanks for the feedback!
WOW, that was fantastic! 5/5!
Thank you!! I really appreciate it :)
This was fun! It's so stressful haha. Very impressive as a 7 day game with a lot of polish in the details. There's even little scripted story moments. Nice!
Thanks!! hahha I'm glad you found it stressful xD
Glad you enjoyed the story too! I put a lot of thought into the writing :)
That was a great experience. Good job on the atmosphere, the story telling. The game really gives me a eerie vibe. I wonder what's with the baby crying? also is the character we control part of the project? judging the way the character move. One drawback is that the mechanic is a little bit basic, but good enemy design anyways
Hey glad you enjoyed it :)
Without spoiling too much, the sounds you can hear are produced by the test subjects. They each have their own motive. Some want to escape. Some want revenge on the lab technicians that did this to them. And some don't understand what's happening but instead their memories are leaking through. The main character's identity will be revealed in the full game... vaguely.
And yep, you're right. The gameplay is a little too resident evil at the moment. I have LOTS of ideas for mechanics I want to add so watch this space for updates. Thanks for the feedback!
Holy Crap, This is really well made. Loved everything about this. feels very resident evil like. Nice Level Design, Lighting and sounds. Tho story I wasnt interested but I do like the environment story telling. I feel like this would be even more terrifying in first person as I would feel much more immersed Tho overall, fantastic job.
Thank youuu! It's funny you should mention first person, as I'm currently trying to decide whether to switch... First person is typically scarier. But I do like having the player's animations on screen because it looks cool. Maybe I'll give players the option, like in RE: Requiem. Thanks for the feedback :)
GOD DAMN, Everything is super well made and well implemented, the gameplay, the visuals, the sound design. I really enjoyed the gameplay, a fantastic survival horror. Amazing job and keep up the good work.
Thank you Peyvand!
Your game was super cool too! It's nice to see the classic Resident Evil / Silent Hill style reimagined in 2D.
I hope you keep working on your game too :)
This is reaaaally good. I can see this being a full-fledged game in the future. The combat and movement feel super smooth. I wasn't particularly interested in the lore, but the gameplay was more than enough.
Thanks Temi :) ye I plan on continuing the game's development. The lore isn't fully fleshed out yet so I can't wait to write more of it !
Insaaane that you made all of this in 7 days and so well polished. The gunplay feels reeeally nice. Super impressed. No qritique to be honest. Great game.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the gunplay. I wanted to make each shot feel super punchy :)
Hey I just played your game and rated it. Loved it! Reminds me of The Shining :)

I'm shocked how you made such an incredible game in a week. It turned out very cool - from the first seconds to the end, everything was done superbly. I don't even have the words to describe how much I enjoyed it! I'm a fan of similar games, and I want to see the continuation of the game :)
Haha thanks Kalina I'm glad you enjoyed it! I really enjoyed your game too, the artstyle was awesome. I've followed you to see the progress of your game too!
Bro how is this game made in a 7 day jam-. Gave me a lot outlast x silent hill 1 vibe with the location but with guns, so it felt that I had a little more in control. Kudos to you!!! this is really great!!
Yesss Outlast and Silent Hill were both huge inspirations for this game! Thank you so much :)
Absolutely phenomenal game, my favorite entry so far! Really stellar work, the gun felt good to use, it was super spooky, and atmospheric. Keep it up!
Thank you so much! That means a lot :) and yesss don't worry I'm going to continue work on the game. Thanks for the feedback man. Your game was awesome too!
such a wonderful game i admire your game and level design and i finished your game and love it.
shooting is your main loop game and i think you can inject juice to shooting feel for example camera shake when gun shoted.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the level design. I'm primarily a programmer so I'm quite new to building levels. So that's a lovely compliment :)
I'm continuing work on the game so I'll make sure to beef up the shooting to make it feel more juicy and impactful. Thanks for the feedback!
What a cool game! You were able fit so much in such little time even a video trailer!
Haha thank you SkellyEBro! Yep, this week was a crazy rush xD
glad you enjoyed it!
Just like in Silent Hill! How cool.He also implemented camera controls and character movements. It's crazy.dude.I love horror shooters.
Thank you so much Silent Hill vibes is just what I was going for! I'm really glad you enjoyed it, your feedback means so much to me :)
