holy shit a horror video game with actually smart characters who communicate with competent people
Amazing game. The voice acting REALLY makes this experience what it is. Well done to all !
I made a video on your game if you're interested :)really wanna play this but for some reason my computer freaks out and fps is very low idek why conidering i can play games like quantum break or like almost anything else smoothly at 720p im confused.. game looks really kool tho!
sooo, uhh my game crashed after i started descending in the beginning. at least second time didn't
The game was good until the cave. The cave was very poorly designed as there is no way to get away from the creature nor is there any audio or visual cue if the creature is near making the cave pretty much luck based.
I had fun programming the everbark, but it was still my first attempt at trying to make a simple monster ai. I did try to make the creature audible from a distance but - along with the cacophonous cave ambience - it tends to get lost in the noise.
Great building of atmosphere, visuals, voice acting, sound effects, and environment building. Gameplay-wise I didn't get it, it felt more luck-reliant on that skill(for example in my first playthrough the bug spawned right in the opening of the cave so he spotted me immediately). The peaking mechanics don't feel useful at all in the cave environment. In conclusion, great walking sim but lacks in the horror part. (If I missed something or misunderstood something please let me know).
horror is my worst enemy but i will happily watch a youtube playthrough of this masterpiece. bookmarked awooga
.
this was good!
Full Play NO Commentary
I forgot to let you know I played the game and made you a lil video:
Loved the environment and atmosphere. The creature was very creepy too! I couldn't find the 5th person, but that could have been on me. I'd love to see more based around this! Great game!
I'm eager to see where it goes from here.
Awesome!
Pretty cool to see this game being set close to where I live lol
Overall. a fantastic job!
Absolutely loved playing this game-such a blast!
This game is a gem-I'm glad I stumbled upon it.
I'm eager to see where it goes from here.
The game offered a decent level of challenge. keeping me entertained
pretty cool game
Make More Games!! AMAZING WORK! This was a terrifyingly good time!
I really like the overall style of the game and its narrative.
not sure if i played the game wrong but i beat it very quickly and left feeling wanting so much more, was so good for what was played though!
Really interesting premise and nice visuals.
Finally a 'Horror' game that capitalizes on the horrors of Australia! Well I assume? But yet a last I still had fun with one and you should try it out yourself if you want! But If you just watch someone play it for you, then it's right here?
Love the voice acting, creature, and glitchy spooky effects on the menu! I didn't show it in the video but I did quite like the way the menu handles as well!! I think my only complaint is that the archaeology team feel like they are trapped in webs (not sap) but the sequences are quite fun!
Fun and spooky. A very well made, little horror.
What a great evening spent playing this one.
What a great evening reading this comment.
