Can't access your game page :(

majomirez 2025-04-08 23:43

It seems your game has not been published in itch.io yet

akinat0 2025-04-09 00:42

Still page not found :(

bluewoozle 2025-04-09 04:18

Unfortunately Itch.io is giving me a 404 not found error for your game.

This is super fun! I was able to access and play. My only issue is that it is too dark to see enemies. The graphics, gameplay loop and sound design is great.

enad96 2025-04-10 14:46

Wow, this entry is awesome! Really cinematic start, graphics look fantastic and cool take on the theme! Kinda gives the vibe of an early 2000s arcade game.

itch page now works. I really enjoy the atmosphere of escaping from swarms of insects. The appearing perks add more possibilities to the gameplay. One issue I've noticed is that the ladders and the winding are placed too close together, making accidental interactions too easy.

Really nice atmosphere and a fun game loop. It would be nice, if you could attack both monsters (left and right) from the bottom position.

The game simply looks amazing and the audio is very immersive. The only thing I found to say is that it would be a great idea to have a UI element that displays our own life and the damages on the elevator (even if the smokes/flames and the blood are already great indicators).

krakadushka 2025-04-10 21:00

@norabacu actually, you can)

hdvr02 2025-04-10 21:43

The sound and visuals in this game are just beautiful, great job

magnesiumninja 2025-04-10 21:49

Excellent atmosphere, and an impressive use of animation and FX for such a short jam! All of the interactions felt very tactile. I felt like the flashlight could have been a little brighter (or with further cast) to really highlight the space, but that didn't stop me from being able to play effectively.

bacontree 2025-04-10 21:59

Wow, this is great! Well balanced gameplay, great graphics and sound, and I really like the mood. It was easy to figure out what I was going to do and great progression with the upgrades. Great job!

anderson-job-loeffler 2025-04-11 00:11

Wow, really eye-catching game—loved the visuals! The entrance was super dramatic and cool, haha. The ambient sound added a great touch, and the controls felt smooth too. Solid entry, keep up the great work!

kristijan 2025-04-11 11:52

Love the art style of old PS games :)

mars88 2025-04-11 20:43

Very good game, I like the style, wish the pistol could reload a bit quicker

tomas88a 2025-04-11 23:34

You guys create the amtosphere of the game is excellent! Great visual and audio, good game!

arasander 2025-04-12 11:11

Love the atmosphere, I was really into it!

0x-void-x0 2025-04-12 13:08

I'm unable to play the game, let me know if you fix it and I'll gladly try again.

@0x-void-x0 could you please describe how you got this error?

0x-void-x0 2025-04-12 15:01

@impossible-teapot I just opened the itch io page and got this popup, it seems to be an array index out of bound error somewhere?

Let me know if you want me to delete that image if it is taking too much space or is an eyesore.

jtap 2025-04-12 23:42

Cool game, reminded me of Cold Fear with its atmosphere and mutants. Stylish graphics and nice controls. I really liked it, thank you for this game!

papykent 2025-04-13 07:20

I felt the same tension as playing Dead Space haha! Loved the art and the aesthetic! Great job!

heviosso 2025-04-14 14:38

Brilliantly executed. Great audio. Very dark. Kicks my butt every time.

x2shadow 2025-04-14 14:53

Very cool guys :) I especially liked the unusual visuals, there is a Dead Space vibe. Regarding the gameplay, it seemed that the elevator components should have either been moved away from the stairs or the stairs should have been made a little differently. I often pressed the space bar and accidentally started going down or up. It's still a bit difficult, you could have made the difficulty easier at the beginning, and then slowly raised it up

Крепкая, отличная игра! Мне понравились тени, классно смотрятся. Если не отвлекаться, то, в принципе, не сильно сложно даже. Хотя меня убили два раза, первый раз в начале, когда я ничего не понял, второй раз - когда отвлёкся и уже не смог сдержать волну чужих ^_^

P.S. Не хватило в конце светлого экрана с цветочками, чтобы порадоваться тому, как я выбрался наружу =P

zelberor 2025-04-21 20:36

Very good visuals and atmosphere. The intro audio is really unsettling. Nice work

alvaron 2025-04-22 16:17

Liked it a lot. Had fun playing it on stream! The mood was set for a nervous ride.

krakadushka 2025-04-23 17:00

@alvaron thanks! Also, has you recorded your stream? I'd like to watch your playthrough)

alvaron 2025-04-23 22:14
