Unique horror game health mechanic

I thought this might be really cool to have as a mechanic to use in the game. There weren’t really the best audios I could find in the toolbox but I made it work.

What I’m aiming for is a horror game that is replayable and has enemies that pathfind well enough to catch you even weaving through doors and such. I also want to have smart npc ai, like behaviour trees and everything, so the ai can feel just as good as alien: isolation.

Unfortunately, I suck at building anything so I don’t think I can make anything scary when it looks like trash.

The flickering you’re seeing is the grain effect I’m using, the video is 480p so it doesn’t look quite as good.

While one can argue that graphics are very important as long as the game is fun to play and offers an unique experience i think it does it’s job greatly

Basically, it doesn’t need to look good to be good
