Escape from the Catacombs by Sichuan

[raw]
made by Sichuan for LD29 (COMPO)
You are stuck in the catacombs of paris. You have to escape before the battery of your torch runs out.

------------------------------------------------------------

There isn't as much play in this as I would like, but it can still take a while depending on how scared you are. I certainly am scared, and I made the monstrosity...

Web player is available, but I recommend downloading the client for full pee-your-pants pleasure.

WASD - Move
E - Interact
Shift - Sprint

- Removed water that looked like a missing floor in favour of dust clouds.

Nice mood and I loved that FOV effect. There was floor missing in the room with key.

Tough to know what to do, I found the fire so I just decided to roast myself in it. :)

too scary xD
Personally I do not like this type of game but the atmosphere is very accomplished, very good use of theme.

You can pick the key up with E, and the 'missing floor' was supposed to be water, but didn't have a material for it :D

Removed the water floor in favour of a dust cloudy thing.

Great game, super moody and creepy. Nice work! I'm going to have to give you a 1 for humour though.

Great scary mood, good ambient sounds, if it weren't day and sunshine outside i'd have been scared to death, hehe :)
Very claustrophobic feeling, nice!

Woah, creepy. I especially loved that effect when you went into the room with the furnace.

Really nice looking game, but I am not really sure what I needed to do :P I included it in part 11 of my Ludum Dare compilation video if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/-vf2U372Ego

Very atmospheric and creepy! I found the key and the fireplace with candles, but unfortunately got stuck at that point. Also, why use 'e' as the interact button instead of something obvious like the space bar?

The way onwards is not left or right, forward or back, instead look for up or down. Also I chose E as the interact button, for it is by far the most commonly used key in games for 'Interact'.
