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 :)
WOW, that was fantastic! 5/5!
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 !
