Mamma mia ragazzi mille complimenti, il gioco ha un'atmosfera pazzesca!! Bravi bravi bravi!!
Mille grazie! Molto lieti che ti abbia colpito in positivo!
Siete stati bravissimi!!! Ho apprezzato il comparto grafico del gioco ed l'esperienza è stato impressionante.
Grazie davvero! Piano piano puntiamo a migliorare <3
Game is deep, has an unique style, and a captivating ambience. The mechanics are simple, yet they make the overall experience engaging.
Thanks we work a lot with our artist to find an art style and create the correct ambience. I'm glad you notice it. Thanks as a designer I can say that it was a really challenging experience to make the experience engaging with simple mechanics but I like the result of it :)
Very nice style and premise. Mix of simple game mechanics and complex setting. Motion blur was way too high and gave me a headache looking at it.
Glad you liked it! Thank you for your feedback!
It was the first time we used the Unity HDRP and we had some performance issue until the last jam day, we need to improve it as soon as possible ;)
Not your fault, time constraint and all that. I think a lot of people recently changed to HDRP, because I've seen several games in the last week that have crazy motion blur and light streaking. Minor visual affects are probably very low on the list of concerns. Could definitely be turned into a larger game with many paths to take and different things to see, leading up to basically the same ending. Sort of giving you the "illusion of choice" situation that they had at the beginning of bio-shock infinite.
Thank you <3
