I felt immediately engaged roleplaying as this monster, and I liked the voice acting too. A bit of music would fit nicely I think. Good job!"},{"author_name":"crafteverywhere","author_uid":"54824","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 7:42pm","epoch":1440617820,"text":"Cool.

Everything made sense and worked within your confines of the simple interactions (kudos on the elevator lights for up and down). It would have been nice to be able to strafe when I was searching the hotel room doors, but that would honestly be my only complaint in the entire game.

I laughed like a moron when the first guy floated away into the skies. The constant rotating gave me slight motion sickness, and a little too much of the game was rotating around to touch false doors. Overall great game.

I wouldn't stay there though\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It's really easy to accidentally skip text by holding down forward just for a little bit.
