Game has a great mood to it! Mind you, genuinely thought that the spider scorpions were only going to be visible on the screen and invisible in the first person view!

I think that the player on the map needs to be made a little clearer (since you have very limited movement to compare to see where you are!

Great work and wish you the very best of luck with the competition!

I find the map very difficult to use, and struggle to figure out my own position on it. Interesting concept, though.

This is an enjoyably terrifying game. That spider is creepy. The atmospheric sounds are really cool. I am pretty sure that no matter what difficulty level I choose it selects insane ;)

The Game is very difficult but I liked it that way. I've been able to beat Easy and Medium Working on beating hard right now.

Very nice!
Really tense atmosphere, and not be able to move while looking at your tablet worked really well.
Also the sprint mechanic was really good.

Very good job!!!

Nice mood, but the RenderTexture (?) you're probably using to draw the tablet was broken.
