The game is good, but feels out of touch with reality and the game theme at times (what is a full hd doritos pack doing in a pixelated game for example). I did however have hard time playing it because of the blur..
I beg you, please remove the motion blur. It does not make the game feel "real", because the blurr is so strong, that i cant see anything. It also sends my cpu usage to 100%. Please, at the very LEAST add an option to remove blurr completely. I cant play like this.
Also, please add a pause menu for when you click ESC
where are the settings.great game for your first major project! the colliders were a little sticky in places, but otherwise it was a generally good experience playing. keep at it, kudos!
This is a good one, although there are some copyrighted sountracks or music at the start inside the store:
scary but unbeatable and the stairs were glichy
short and sweet game, similar to the After Incident. Thanks for game!<3
A very fun game, it puts you in a situation that can happen to anyone. Congratulations to the developers for this great game. :)
Very fun! I had hard time finding the items at the store but can be oblivious at times. Can't wait to see what else you make!
Leaving my playthrough here if anyone is interested:
loved
Just some evening shopping.......
I liked the story.. pretty creepy being home alone and things start happening. i do have a few things i noticed if you wanted feedback.. finding the items in the store took quite a bit of time, if you ever do an update or a different game and decide to do something similar.. maybe have the items more noticeable? have them blink or something? light up when you walk up to it? also, maybe sprinting would be good? it was so slow walking lol.. and i kept getting stuck on random stuff.. walls? was kind of hard to turn sometimes because of it. Just some ideas if you ever do another game or something lol good game though, was not expecting certain things to happen ahaha
It was quite spooky, I liked the different sort of endings.
awesome!
Pretty good game really enjoyed it from start to finish looking forward to play more of your games
Quite a spooky twist on the "home invasion" type horror games. Really enjoyed that you can tell where the 2nd intruder is, very good !
I made a video on your game if you're interested :)GOTTEN BETTER 7/10 !!! awesome work bro
Fuck you
fuck you id like to see you do better than this
I made this comment as a joke while frustrated how hard this game is.
Can't see anything. I dont know if is my pc fault, but is too dark to play.
неплохо
This type of horror genre, the home alone ones, will never go out of style.
It can happen to anyone, anytime... maybe tonight... so lock the doors always, and sleep tight!
It's the third game in my video.
Enjoyed your game. Multiple endings were good, never knew what to expect. It would have been absolutely terrifying for real!!
i really loved this game i knew i heard something from under that bed lol. it scared the fuck out of me.
I really enjoyed this game, the jumpscare was great, and I had a lot of fun while looking for the milk—it was just elusive! The idea of the game is very interesting and frightening! The tension was off the charts!
But when THE BEHOLDER 2 ?
? ? ?
He's under the bed lmao
i am downloading it
