I’m the builder of my friend’s game that I took part in and since the game released as a one player short horror game, I need some feedback on how to improve the game and since now it’s getting visits and we originally wanted to release the game in 2022 but due to lack of motivation and ideas it didn’t work out and now me, my friend and another developer that took part in are thinking of remaking the game just how we planned
For the first look, it was pretty ok but playing on even more was meh.
The first objective was already quite a struggle for me since I had to look for 4 minutes on where that last point was I had to check, I’d advise to not make that and instead let the player wait for idk 1 minute to search the apartment and then the next part begins
On Part 2, for some reason, the Objective font and movement were changed which I found weird. The running sound was still played when you were walking.
And also on Part 2 you can see the Trigger parts
Part 3 was no means necassary, it took me again another 3-4 minutes to find out on where I should place the 3 Items.
And Part 4… I think that you could just mash it up with Part 3. I get the idea of that the player may have hallucinations but Hallucinations doesn’t equal to new place imagination. There was just a new corridor in Part 4, which doesn’t make sense at all since in Part 1, you can see that the corridor was just one-sided. And it all ended with a simple kick message.
And for the Icon, I think you are better off without the man just T-Posing to the camera.
I am no expert on how Hallucinations work but I think making the player more panicked as they see more things getting weirder around his place and some Paranoia as well might be a bit better.
