I'm very bad with horror overall but i wanted to give this a shot, now with some feedback: i think just the head being a bit bigger would already be scarier but not in a cheap jumpscare kind of way, would just be more unsettling and threatening. Also the lack of landmarks makes this really difficult to keep track of where i am, i basically have to keep mental track of where the start is. I did however really enjoyed it, the atmosphere is eerie and the sound design compliments it really well, the old school horror graphics work wonders here, overall it's a very fun and cohesive experience, the timer is also good to keep me from just hiding too much, very cool entry, congratulations!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":734726,"author_name":"Hawkin","author_uid":"hawkin","epoch":1633478070,"text":"Nice spooky environment. The floating head really got me haha. Nice touch.\n\nI always like entering a game jam with a personal objective of what I want to achieve (or improve on). Did you have a personal goal? :smiley: \n\nSo in my opinion, the level design was a little too large (or a little complex) for the time limit, especially without any additional aids. Some ways to change that could be:\n* Breaking the puzzle off from the main room in 4 separate paths, that way it's easier to mentally \"check off\" an area (maybe you did that, and I couldn't tell because I kept losing track of which direction I started facing)\n* Maybe giving the player a way to mark where they've been, like a spray paint can or something. You could even limit the amount of paint, for challenge!\n\nAnyway, those are just some ideas that came to mind. Overall, the mood was well done!\n\nSomething to think about for the future: maybe you could think of a way to integrate the timer more into the game, like it's the timer on the elevator returning to the surface, so you need to make it back. Some screen shakes when the timer ticked down and the sound played would have sold the effect!\n\nBy the way, if you sit on the main menu enough, the ambience track stops. Maybe not playing on a loop?","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":735246,"author_name":"nardandas","author_uid":"nardandas","epoch":1633482216,"text":"The maze was suuuuuper hard to navigate - some help would be appreciated.
