It feels like an adobe shockwave game from 2001

Pretty good graphics, audio felt mostly good (maybe the scare crows could be a little better, but everything else was good). Don't know if it really fit the theme, still felt like using a gun really, but it was pretty good overall.

In before steams steals your sniper skin for their CSGO weapons :D Nice try man.

I'd like to play this, but I don't see how to navigate to the web game from the web link.

This game gives me nostalgia. Pretty nice!
Good luck!

It felt like I was shooting a flare gun? It was interesting. Definitely felt like a throwback game.

I like the look of the game, the darkness adds a nice element to it. Also the fact that it's an FPS game is pretty cool. Nice job!

The windows version didn't seem to grab the cursor, but luckily I was able to play with a gamepad. The turning was pretty slow though.

Gave up at 21 scarecrows remaining, since it felt like the bird-sounding-bats also got disinterested and stopped picking up the scarecrows.

I didn't quite understand the function of the "blood meter" since you could also shoot without it.

With great graphics, this game has ALMOST an amazing atmosphere, but it doesn't quite feel right. I think mostly due to missing ambience and wierd looking scarescrows. Also i don't understand what my gun is doing to them.

Sets a pretty creepy mood! It does kind of feel like you're just using a gun though. Nice game! :)

acrimiens 2015-04-21 01:06

Yeah, so nostalgic, i love that. Good Luck!

My bat friends dropped a scarecrow on my head 10/10 would play again.

Very scary mood, well done.

Aiming with the mouse becomes a little hard overtime because it stops mapping the aim right. The theme is pretty interesting. The graphics and audio are great! When I ran short on ammo, the scarecrows started flickering a lot after being shot.

Lovely atmosphere.

One complaint: the Web link leads to a website which is not English and has no game? (Or I couldn't find it, as it wasn't in English)

reccy 2015-04-21 13:17

I think you nailed the atmosphere, but the Windows version didn't really keep the mouse inside the window. The gameplay is pretty cool though. Good job :)

The foundation is there but I think the game would definitely benefit from a good measure of spice, variety and bug fixes.

dyfer 2015-04-21 14:22

good tree animation ... the idea too

flygamer101 2015-04-21 14:30

Nice game, like the graphics.

Jeremias 2015-04-21 18:54

Your filters/shaders create a very intense horror mood/atmosphere. Congratulations for achieving that effect :)

seconddimension 2015-04-21 19:35

Definitely a good mood you set, the scarecrows were pretty scary

arttut02 2015-04-24 09:08

Liked the mood in game. The cameras "noise" effect was nice.

kinosawada 2015-04-28 03:52

Good graphics and nostalgic! ^^ Good Job

mrodrigues 2015-05-01 07:35

The mood was really good! I was a little confused at the start as to how kill the enemies, though!

thoughts:
- I like the attention to details, for example, the birds in the menu, or that you can see the 'health' of the scarecrows in the amount of tatters their drape is in
- the message in red on the underside of the screen only showed up long enough for me to register that it was some sort of helpful 'use this to do that' message, not to actually read it
- some of the scarecrows where (felt?) significantly harder to take down (or, well... up, really); was this intentional? or just something I (didn't realize I) was doing wrong/right?

Very dark and tense mood. Resembles a game from another time. Well done!

depp 2015-05-07 23:29

I can't figure out how to play the game through the web link.
