Hey ! I used your game in my low low budget short film. Ill leave it here if you want to check it out
Thanks for reaching out about this game! I had a fantastic time with it! Its unlike anything I have played in the horror genre. The unique art style is both minimalistic yet detailed. I hope you continue fleshing this game out because I would love to see where this story goes from here!
Thank you so much! Your video was very funny!
A very Unique Style of Gameplay. Very different controls than I'm use to, but got a handle on it pretty quick. Definitely gonna keep a watch for the Full Release.. Great Work.
Thank you so much! It was a delight to watch you play through
This was a very original take on the horror genre. The gameplay is a nice step away from most horror games where you're roaming around waiting for a jumpscare to happen.The art style is really unique as well. I wasn't sure how well the combat would work with the controls but it ended up working out and I was surprised that it was much better than I thought it would be. There are some bugs but regardless of those, this was a really good demo and I'll be waiting for the full release!
Thank you so much! Your feedback in invaluable to improving the game.
great game I love it https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2279635057

NICE
thanks for making the video! It was very helpful with patching the game
Some parts or the game are actually scary, and the combat is a lot of fun! Especially because I was not expecting it, the grid movement is really nice and it adds a lot to the experience.
I did manage to find a displacement bug inside the convenience store and I do believe the "free roam" mode can be improved, maybe with a different key that you can toggle instead of holding, I would even argue is not needed, the game plays perfectly as it is; I feel the controls could be different, like rotating with arrow keys instead of Q and E and making those for vertical and horizontal attacks instead, but that's mostly a suggestion.
Overall a great experience and can't wait to see more of this game and the spooky skeleton buddy at the end.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! Your video means a lot! Its super helpful to see what works and what doesnt in realtime. Your mention of chapter-based releases is a really inventive thought. Ill keep it in mind.
thanks again!
