This is my 1st attempt at a horror game,I tried my best! This Ludum Dare was a lot different, I took risks, scoped big, and try some new stuff. I had a lot of fun and cant wait till the next jam. Thanks for playing!!!

For quite a while I thought nothing was a lieXD. I liked it, it did give me a bit of a scare and the puzzle was actually neat.
One note would be that at times I didn't get that I was moving. Some repeating texture on the floor would be cool.
Great job!

@evgenimp thank you! thanks for the feedback, if i update the game Ill change the floor or throw some on them so you can see that your moving. Im glad I could scare you *evil laugh

That atmosphere of this game is pretty good! I also had my audio turned up so even when the doors opened I would jump :smile: In the sections with the long hallways it didn't feel like the player was moving, either some graphics for the floor/walls or at least changing the shape of the hallway would be a welcome improvement. Good entry!

The audio really completes this game. It's really spooky. I started playing without the sound and was wondering what even going on. I appreciated the puzzle. Great first horror game. Great entry.

Ok, despite having a quite simple art, the atmosphere in the game is well made and pretty spooky.

@artyom-volkov thank you! I made art as needed, I am not the best artist so simple it is

Nice atmosphere, I like how you played with the idea of nothing, if you want to try and improve it I would say try to add some sprites and light changes

pace feels slow with the time locked door ways and the long empty featureless arrays.

thank you playing and for the feedback, I made the doors timed so you wouldve explored the big room

Your game was really cool!! I was so tense at all times, i got stuck in the puzzle.. "I'm so bad at it haha", there's moments where i jumped, awesome game!

thanks so much! Im glad you enjoyed! for the puzzle, spoilers : it basically a number pattern and there a simple rule ex: x*2 makes the pattern to be if we start with 1 = 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and so on. I hope it helps! As for your game, I got busy and so havent had the chance to play it yet but I will as soon as I can, thanks for waiting!

A lot of mood in there. Horror feel is enriched! I wish things are a bit faster and it should have some art. Other than that, a decent entry!

@bilalch213 thanks for the feedback and playing, can you explain more about it being a bit faster, is it pace?

So far, this has been the best "spooky" entry I've played in a long time! Sure, there's not a lot of like, action per se, but that builds up the tension and suspense for when things DO happen! Great entry!

Simple graphic but great mood. The sound effects help enhancing the atmosphere a lot! Nice work!

Creepy! Good job! The ambient sound is awesome. You loose orientation a bit in long hallways, because there are no textures, but maybe that's intended. Use a different font next time, because it looks a bit out of place.

Thanks so much for playing and for the feedback! Ill consider using a better font next time @zubspace

You did a great job of setting the mood and creating good ambiance in this game. The graphics are very minimal, which normally I wouldn't think of as working well in a horror game, but you made it work. Thanks for sharing it with us on the stream last week!
