Nevertheless, the audio really got me into the game. Nice :D
That said, cool visuals that kill performance aren't worth it. Firstly, the game was opening fullscreen, but somehow without focus. When I would click to give it focus, it would minimize. After getting it into a window, it lagged pretty badly before eventually just freezing.
Maybe the blur affect is a bit too pronouced, I hardly see.
but after some try you get use to it.
Nice job.
But got a bit nauseous from the shifting view distance.
The sound really contributed to the mood, many games have you as a literal monster, but few make you feel it. Great job!
Thank you for your feedback :)
I felt the blur effect was a little high for me
Did you do the Models?
Otherwise it is unfair competition. Had to do the same for my game =(
The mood is perfect, I really had the sensations to be a monster chased by villagers thanks to great graphics and awesome sound design. The mechanics fit well, even if they are simple.
I think it's a great idea that fits the theme perfectly.
Great job!
I am glad you put a video up! Looks like a great game. The idea of blurring so you can't really tell what is coming added a real nice mood to it. Well Done!
Really nice graphics and I like how you made the tutorial part of the game. Really good job!
Thanks.
Anyways, this was very well done, although in some sections I feel I was unjustly stuck ... but its also because I wasn't playing well and was unable to recover :)
