Although is is quite confusing, this is a really cool idea! The audio is spot on and the only downside is the clear lack of direction (direction as in a goal), So we are blind and protecting humanity from pig demon things... What is the main purpose of the game? Of course you can tell i didnt get that far but that did not stop my from enjoying this game! I love it!

Nice concept but I couldnt engage very well. it felt like I always heard the same sounds and nothing was happening

I updated the description with more hints/guidance. If people are still finding it too confusing to complete the game, I may go ahead and put up a map for you all.

Had my volume turned up quite a bit to try to understand what was going on. Now I understand that getting murdered by a is pretty startling when you're doing that.

I think this is a really sweet concept, I love the idea of taking away sight in a game - though the tough thing is it can't quite imitate real life with blackness as in real life you still have a sense of direction and when you collide with stuff etc. I would love to see a few more indicators of what was going on - maybe if your screen got darker or brighter the nearer you were to a light source? Or if you could somehow indicate that you were turning? As is, I love the sound!

Nice concept for a game.

I closed my eyes and moved around. I was completely lost. It seemed obvious to me that I should use my mouse to spin around until I heard that my target was in front of me, and then move forward, but the sounds I heard didn't correspond to what I should hear if I spin around in a room.

Eventually, I opened my eyes and discovered that the game ignores my mouse input once my mouse cursor hits the edge of my screen. This makes the game completely unplayable for me.
