Played for 40 minutes, took forever to find last torch. Sprint kept stopping, story isn't entirely captivating, perhaps just needs more voices and some more direction? Interesting designs, but it was hard to play. Sensitivity is also set too fast. Can't wait for an update in the near future, cool ps1 jam.
I COULDN'T GET PAST THE TOTEM PART BUT GREAT GAME ALSO IMA UPLOAD ANOTHER VIDEO ON THIS GAME CAUSE I'M DUMB AND COULDN'T FIND THE LAST TOTEM
Fun game to play, interesting story, I will say the forest section needs something done with optimization or offer a setting to cap FPS because my OBS died in that section of the recording.
Another fantastic game from a fantastic developer.
Beautifully written notes as usual. Keep up the good work!
great DIEGO
such a cool game, i've only seen play-throughs of it since i am on a mac, but would love to be able to play it. seriously such a unique and captivating story!
I really enjoyed the game. Replaying it is hard because you just have to close the game and restart. I like the narrative, the antagonist is scary. great game.
I really enjoyed the game. I tried to replay for the second ending but experienced many bugs. The first bug the totem pole scene never triggered. The second bug the game returned to menu when walking to the building at the beginning. The third bug while collecting totems the game crashed and closed itself.
LOVE THE SPOOKY ATMOSPHERE, THOSE GUYS RUNNING AT ME EARLY ON REALLY GOT ME :p
aLSO REALLY NEAT THAT YOU MENTIONED HE IS "BETWEEN TWO WORLDS" i HAVE A GAME BASED ON THE EXACT SAME CONCEPT, EXCEPT MINE ISN'T that SCARY, IT'S ACTUALLY CALLED BETWEEN TWO WORLDS also.
gREAT JOB THOUGH!!
Not to be heretical, but I'm feeling pretty lit about this!
cool game but the way he chases you was kinda funny looking lol
/editloved the graphics and sound design! but i wish the ending/s0 was more intense!
A truly unique game! I love the music after you collect all the totems.
got stuck for a bit trying to find the last totem lol and i got scared pretty good. well done!
