Spooky atmosphere

Very cool game and good graphics!

I got scared so good spooky game. Maybe the game is too dark.

The game looks creepy, I'm glad that I didn't find any stupid screamers. The location is too big and it takes a long time to walk from object to object. The traps are completely invisible. optimization is not particularly good. But everything looks scary and, in principle, not bad. Good job.

@cozary I have implemented a brightness setting in the pause menu but the darkness was intentional, I will keep that in mind for future jams for sure :)

@gnum Im glad you enjoyed it

@gruzdid I will keep size of the level in mind for future games thanks :) , and this was my first game jam so I did not think about the optimization and just wanted to complete it in time :sweat_smile:

Nice atmosphere, it was spooky. You got me with the floor and rope traps, I did not notice them. Well done! One thing that I noticed is that the proportions seem a bit off, every furniture look so big compared to our character.

Nice spooky game. I needed a lot of time to find the crowbar. Running after Ritual without stamina was scary as hell ^^

nailed the mood and atmosphere 100%

I really like the vibe of this game, something that remind me early 3d horror games or mods. ^^

You got me on both traps... Glad there were checkpoints. :sweat_smile:

Good job!

(Also, do you have the references of the paintings you used? I really liked some of them :smiling_imp: )

@master-yeet Yes even I noticed the proportions of furniture to be off but till then it was too late and I had to submit the game, I will keep it in mind for next LD haha

@lila-pause All my friends that played also took a lot of time to get the crowbar, maybe some indicator or a simple light source near it could help

@joshua-miller-pio Thanks a lot!

@blaise-ebuth I got all the paintings from sketchfab here is a link for it - https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/horror-paintings-zdzislaw-beksinski-3793aafef25d413dbeb0328768817df1

lol i got hit with both traps too! it was so dark in there! very spooky atmosphere.

Fun short horror game. A couple of scares actually got me. Good job!

Great execution of the topic. Got a bit lost at the start because I couldn't find that crowbar. Good atmosphere as well. As someone else said, the scaling of the objects was a bit off :D

lol I layed my fingers on alt+f4 for most of the time in case there are some sudden jumpscares or chasing scenes. The atmosphere is awesome, tho the flashlight perhaps could be brighter since the room is fairly dark

I'm not good at English, and at first I read the name of the game as "Boothroom" or something))

Classic horror story techniques - everything is as we love. It's a little sad that there is no chance to dodge the trap the first time. It's cool that you solved this problem with respawn without losing progress.

Thank you))
