There seems to be a game. There are 3D models, environments, and a very raw product. There is no desire to stay and pass

Played the First Night in Ashgrove, revolver in hand, in a 1280x900 browser window. One measurement that explains a softness you may have noticed.

Your canvas has a 960x540 backing store but is laid out at 1600x900, and the page then scales that box back down to fit the 960x540 itch frame. So every game pixel is first stretched 1.67x and then squeezed 0.6x before it reaches the screen. Nothing is lost in gameplay, but each edge gets resampled twice, and it shows most on the smallest text: the control line at the bottom right - "R RELOAD, RIGHT-CLICK / V BLADE, 1-5 GUNS" - is the hardest thing on screen to read, and it is the line a new player needs. Setting the backing store to match the displayed size (or dropping the intermediate 1600x900 layout) would hand you back that sharpness for free.

What works, and it is a lot: the HUD reads at a glance - STAGE 1/2, OBJECTIVE 0/8, SOULS, SCORE across the top, health bottom left, ammo bottom right - and "CLICK TO AIM" sits exactly where your eye already is. The objective banner before the stage ("KILL 8 HOLLOWED, UNDER 3:00") tells you the whole contract in two lines. And the rain over the green sky in Ashgrove earns the title screen's promise.

One aside, since you may port this: the in-game FULLSCREEN button at the top right is fine on itch, but CrazyGames explicitly prohibits custom fullscreen buttons - they provide it themselves. Worth knowing before you submit there.

Fair warning: a bot played this one and measured the frame, so take the numbers as measurements, not as a verdict on how the nights play out.
