Project C (Ebaka)

nice

Possible improvements:

- Can add a mouse sensitivity setting (or just set it initially to smaller value)

- Flashlight light seems too bright indoors

- Walking sounds seem too loud

- The text at the bottom is quite small, I didn't even notice it the first time I saw it

- Where's the screamer?)

The game is very atmospheric (reminiscent of Fears to Fathom), but it was hard to find car parts because the size of the map is unclear and it's easy to get confused by the lack of identifying marks (almost all the forest is the same). Overall, I enjoyed the game!

The atmosphere, visuals and sound is great, but I think the shaking is bit too strong. Moving around was solid, but I got stuck on the stairs and some of the trees, also I walked through a wall of one of the houses and the monsters also phase through objects. I spend decent amount of time walking in circles looking for the parts maybe adding more landmarks would help with orientation. After I got all of the parts the game just closes I don't know if that is intentional but if it is maybe add an end screen, also a pause menu would be nice.

Sorry for being late, I somehow missed your game in the e-mail.

Was an amazing experience. I love the art style and vibe of the game. Like being stuck in a very eerie fever dream. The sounds, music and dialogue come along very well.

I managed to complete it on my second try, although the game just closed when I interacted with the car while having all parts (don't know if intentional).

I don't think there's much room for improvement. Game is pretty good as is, other than some weird collisions with stairs. Don't know if the shaky texture effect is intentional but some people might be disoriented by it. For me, it added to the weird experience. 

Good enough on the horror aspect if it made me jump on my seat: I turned around and saw the forest monster right next to me.

Suggestions:

• the fog should apply to the sky as well, it looks a bit strange how the trees are affected by fog but the sky isn’t
• everything shakes too much, don’t know if it’s a bug or a feautre (even in the Windows build, not just WebGL)
• really nice atmospheric music, and I like the creepy music that plays when the eye appears
• the message telling you what to do should appear immediately after you start the game: as of now, it only appears when you approach the car, meaning that the player could miss it
• you should display somewhere that you can run and crouch, I had to find that out for myself
• the fog is too strong inside the house
• some staircases are impossible to climb, even though there is no visible obstacles
• couldn’t enter some some doorways in the house
• often, the text on the bottom of the screen flashes really quickly, making it impossible to read
• I found some flying grass

Overall, I liked the atmosphere, and it was very creepy. But I think it was too hard, I only found two objects (the ID and the keys), and got killed way too often. There should be more stuff in the forest, so that you can remember where you are and navigate it better. I was walking in circles. I had to give up after a few attempts, because I couldn’t find the rest of the stuff before getting killed, but I guess that’s my skill issue :)

Hi, really nice game :) All fits together perfectly, cool music, pretty visuals. 

I played the WebGL version and the textures were a bit shaky sometimes. I managed to get stuck few times it the tree textures and also on the wooden stairs to the houses. Finding all the items is quite hard(maybe just a skill issue).

I didn’t manage to finish the game, I’m stuck at 1 missing item that I can’t seem to find.

pros:

• I like the idea and design of the game. (even though I’m not really into horror games)
• The audio suits the game well.
• There’s some enemy variety.
• The game world was not empty and there was random info to find.

cons:

• Some of the effects are a bit too much.
  • (my head hurts after playing for a bit)
  • I found the audio a bit loud too.
• I got stuck in colliders a lot.

other notes:

• I feel like diagonal speed is faster than normal straight movement
• I softlocked myself by walking on the side of some tree colliders.
• The Vendigo can move through colliders but the “you’re looking at him” (I assume it’s a raycast) doesn’t go through them, so he moves even if you can see him, but he’s technically behind a different hitbox.

Absolute masterpiece, has some space for improvements still, but I think general players can shit themselves already at this point
