I really loved how dark it was, but sometimes that meant that I got killed without realizing. I think it would be really helpful if the enemies made sounds or you made a sound when you were hit.

Loved the voiced intro. I like the idea of becoming more of a monster to beat the monsters, but unfortunately I didn't make it very far. \r<br\/>The lack of feedback (audio or even visual) when I'm under attack almost guarantees I lose a chunk of health before I even notice I'm getting hit. The only workaround I found was a lot of silly spinning to make sure nothing's sneaking up on me. \r<br\/>I really liked the visual-cone\/flashlight mechanic, though. It accentuates the darkness and made me paranoid about things sneaking up on me.

Overrun by mutants, monsters, horrible things. To survive, you must become like one of them, mutating yourself so you can become stronger than the rest. \r\n\r\nThis game is a horror, top-down shooter. Dark, scary and hard to survive in. Your objective is to find the monster that only legends talk about. A monster so heavily mutated, that it's DNA would make you the strongest being on Earth.\r\n\r\nPlease enjoy!\r\n\r\n\/\/\/\/LINUX USERS\/\/\/\/\r\nHi there, it seems (according to comments) that our game won't run on Linux. Seeing as I don't really have a way to try the game on a Linux machine, I'm not sure I can resolve the issue. Very sorry. I have uploaded a rebuilt version, I hope it works. If it does not, I can't really do more.","title":"Monsters"}
