Good entry, very a atmospheric

wayward 2014-12-09 10:09

Very nice graphics and sound

kaijuu 2014-12-09 10:09

Really spooky game! So much like it

demy 2014-12-09 10:36

Ok, you gave me nightmares. Very nice sounds + graphics combination. But sometimes the main character doesn't want to go up or down for no reason, so you need to move around stairs for a while to make him use it.
Again, great atmosphere.

Daaaaamn, that was creepy, but so awesome! Mood is fantastic! Great job!

HelkeGames 2014-12-09 10:47

Awesome concept! I love the lights system and all! Very addictive!

semdog 2014-12-09 10:50

I've always hated big purple things that run after me. Thanks for that :(
but great game! Real sp00ky and atmospheric. Nice job

sathorn 2014-12-09 10:58

Wow, very nice atmosphere! Unfortunately though it's pretty buggy. Sometimes the character doesn't move or moves out of the map or the alien sound stutters. Also it doesn't match the theme too well :) But still, really good game.

oatsbarley 2014-12-09 13:05

Wow! Perfect atmosphere and great use of the audio, screenshakes, etc. for effect. It's impressive that you came up with something that's genuinely scary in the space of an LD.

joshua_burr 2014-12-09 13:07

I loved it.

ryannielson 2014-12-09 13:08

Neat game, looks and sounds great with some genuinely scary moments. Great use of screenshake as well!

Just a quick big. You're able to clip through the locked doors if you walk into them and look in different directions quickly.

Regardless, great game. It's really hard to do horror in 2D and you nailed it.

It's like a minified 16bit Alan Wake. Very creepy with terrifying (in a good way) sound effects. A bit hard to orient yourself, but I guess that's the point :D

Doesn't really fit the theme I think, but nonetheless enjoyable.

resty 2014-12-09 13:21

good game, i dare not play it ...

customphase 2014-12-09 14:03

Wow, it looks and sounds amazing. Not a big fan of a gameplay though. It needs some sort of map, cause its too easy to get lost

zayron 2014-12-09 19:25

Awesome Job! Last time I had this feeling I was playing “F.E.A.R. First Encounter Assault Recon”. But it did not fit the theme very well.

nsadie 2014-12-09 19:32

Great game. Great atmosphere. Was happy to be able to finish it in the end.

groydis 2014-12-10 10:29

I jumped the first time I got attacked, Brilliant, Lots of atmosphere. Great Job!

cabezotta 2014-12-10 17:27

Nice entry! Spooky!

si1ver 2014-12-10 18:39

Awersome horror atmosphere and really cool pixel graphics
I think that I could not sleep tonight...

whitematterteam 2014-12-10 18:41

Very good game! Sometimes the ladders don't work for some reason so you have to go back and forth and retry. Great game after all!

blister 2014-12-10 18:45

Really great game with Great ambience

yarek 2014-12-10 18:45

It's a cool game but it has a few bugs. Sometimes he wouldn't use a stair without reason and sometimes I could walk through a close wall. But anyway I like to play atmospheric games like mine :)

harley77 2014-12-10 18:46

Great entry!

headmade 2014-12-10 23:09

Ob boy the audio really makes the atmosphere work, good job! I also like the pixel art. Overall a good game.

arkrothe 2014-12-11 18:08

Super creepy O_O... The first few times when the monsters got spotted were quite terrifying moments.

But after a while they started bugging out or something and 3-4 kept getting caught on the same causeway simultaneously. It would be a lot more awesome if they were a bit sparser, but chased us more actively.

thopis 2014-12-12 12:44

Great atmosphere!liked the mechanics with the rotating head/flashlight!

2014-12-13 15:03

Awesome game :) Scared the bejesus out of me! Keep up the good work.

flashlight 2014-12-13 16:01

Basically it is like a maze game, but your idea of using lantern makes the game different from traditional maze game. I like your music which successfully make the game quite scary. The game could be better if there is something that can indicate player's progress or a minimap.

You may come to try our game "Flashlight", which has similar mechanisms that the only weapon of player is light and monsters afraid of light.(Though it is more in an arcade style.)

benmcnelly 2014-12-16 07:08

Very polished! Keep it up!

yodamaster 2014-12-17 17:50

Quite scary ...

JFlegle 2014-12-17 19:22

right when I thought I couldn't find the exit, I did. Yep I jumped the first time I died.

2014-12-17 21:53

Damn this is an awesome game :D How did you achieve the headlamp effect on that? ive been trying to get that effect in Unity for a while :/

abdurrahmankh 2014-12-18 03:35

great atmosphere, and horror! nice mechanics, but the only thing I didn't like, is you have no idea where you are at, its all the same, and I did not understand how the doors get open.

so the maze itself is not that good, but over all this is a great work.

grlmc13 2014-12-18 11:45

Thank you, guys for your feedback. You are awesome. ButtonMasherBros, thanks for review I laught my ass off ))) Yep, it's a lot of bugs in the game. Feel sad about it.

elendow 2014-12-25 13:01

Very nice atmosphere, like the concept. Good job!

gameattack 2014-12-25 14:32

Very good game. It has a very strong impact.

kddekadenz 2014-12-25 21:28

Unity web player does not support Linux.

blackbulletiv 2014-12-26 22:58

Holy shit, this scared me a couple times. Excellent mood. A bug I noticed was where the monsters were just within range, the musical "hit" would trigger many, many times.

dans17 2014-12-27 02:22

Very good atmosphere. I just wish there were more indications as to where to go instead of blindly wandering around a maze.

infectionteam 2014-12-27 12:08

We really like the atmosphere of this game, the idea to mix atmospheric soundscape with sound effects to make something musical it's very nice!

arcturusdeluxe 2014-12-28 22:57

Great sense of mood, the alien popping out at me made me jump a bit. Nice pixel art, and great audio work too.

indie4fun 2014-12-29 19:58

Love the animations and the "aliens" glitch! Good athmosphere!
