I immediately jumped from the boat and got lost in the water, but after some wandering found the island.
@sayurinyooko If they see you they'll catch you. The trick is to sneak and not be seen. You can only see them when you're focusing, so you need to focus to see where they are and where they're going to avoid them. But you can't run when you're focusing so you have to balance it.
I had to restart the game twice because I fell off the boat and couldn't get back on, but once I stopped messing around, I was able to make progress. I felt the intro was a bit slow, and the other character moves slower than the main player. The ghosts are too fast also, which frustrated me a little bit.
The focus mechanic and its visual effects are pretty awesome, really enjoyed that. Overall, it's a good concept and an interesting story, I like it! Good work.
Holly s*t UE5 is pretty but demanding, loaded my laptop to 100%
Encountered a bug where after ghost caught me for the second time all I could see was black screen and respawn was not happening.
Also, I had an issue at the beginning that I could not jump of the boat when it reaches the island and after trying for a while, I fell in the back of the boat and was stuck in a collision box that prevented me from going to any of the sides of the boat so I had to restart the game and watch the intro all over again.
I can see it's well done, the character movement is well polished, the graphics are pretty, the sound design was good, but I couldn't progress further unfortunately. But great work with you game, it's really nice.
