Your game is fucking freaky, man. It may be the 1:30 AM thing, but this game is damned scary.

Wow, that was great! I really liked all the little snips of info on the rooms, and it gave a really great mood!
@Josh:
Well that's great! Scary is the mood what I want to give, though I honestly did expect too much in that regard. Thanks. :)
@binarycoder:
Thanks!
This game is amazing. The atmosphere is really haunting and put together. I love the logs and crazy bulletin boards.
Fucking epic.
Wow! Thanks a lot man! :D
Had fun listening for monsters and wondering dark rooms. Second game I've rated and I'm already giving out 5s. Nice work!
Thanks so much! Nice to hear you're on good rating roll. :)
The mood was excellent- the way you used the limited range of vision and the sounds of robots really made the facility a creepy, lonely place. The simple graphics suit it, and the sparse audio serves to further improve the mood. Good job. Of course, one critique- the memes scattered everywhere really annoyed me. I'll give you points in humor for trying though.
Thanks!
Scattered everywhere? I didn't think I put that many memes in there. Of course there were a couple things related to "arrow in the knee", "nyan, nyan, nyan...", and maybe another one, but I can't remember anything other memes. Nevertheless, one thing I was concerned about is that it may take away from the creepy mood... but I was having too much fun with it all. :D
loved it.. wd!
Very nice game, I loved the graphics and the mood :)
Thanks guys! :)
Scared the shit out of me :O
The first note says "still alive". Was this an accidental Portal reference or was it intentional?
@Cell:
Lol, I guess that's good then. :)
@Jacic:
Does it? Well it's definitely unintentional.
Super annoying sound effects but good writing and mood =)
Enjoyed playing through this. Quite atmospheric, and I liked the attempt and making the facility seem inhabited by real people instead of faceless scientists. The 1337 and kittens and stuff were a bit jarring though, I think it could do with more timeless humour to sell the futuristic setting.
The bit I most enjoyed was the room with the platforms leading down into the darkness. It worked well with the limited vision range.
The enemies had me stressing a bit, as they should do. Their introduction was a little confusing as I was more focused on reading the computer logs, and I assumed the noise was coming from one of the computers, then suddenly the robot was on top of me. The upcoming enemy could be signposted to the player better with a lot of blood and a suspicious long corridor, for example.
Nice to see a 48 hour game with lots of backstory text!
@agerstant
Yeah they were generated with Bfxr. Thanks!
@Ishisoft
Thanks! Yeah, looking back the humor does detract from the mood, but oh well, it's there now.
Impressively complete experience for a 48hr entry - well done! The enemy sound definitely creeped me out.
Thanks, that's good to hear!
I like that Skyrim based humor :D Great idea ;)
Thanks for game!
Addicting!
