PROJECT ABEL [CONCEPT DEMO]

Hey dude, you've constructed a great atmosphere, here.  Kudos on your sound design--I especially like your use of deep ambience, and those zombie monster things sound genuinely alarming!

Any plans for music? In a lot of ways with the horror genre, less is more, but it can be beneficial to have some select, subtle music happening here and there. As a sound designer and composer I am especially interested in providing a soundtrack to a game like this. If you were interested, I'd be willing to compose for you, all pro bono.

Otherwise, keep up the good work! I'm excited to play this when it comes out!

Ah the nostalgia this game brings back.

I cant wait to play the rest of this when it comes out.

I love the atmosphere and the build up.  The game is similar to resident evil and silent hill but is its own animal.  I like where this is going!  I will be playing and waiting for more!

Had to check out the update! The atmosphere is still amazing and I love this super low-res pixel art but I still felt there were some issues holding the whole thing back. You have to investigate every. single. object. This gets really tedious really quickly and kills curiosity because you're checking everything not because you want to, but because you have to. Second is that it can be hard to tell what's what in certian areas due to a lack of contrast between wall, floor and door. Some areas are really well designed and are easy to navigate, but others not so much. Lastly is the combat, it's still far too clunky for its own good. By the end of the video I felt like I needed to go back to an area with enemies in it but had no desire to do so due to how slow, unresponsive and inaccurate the combat is. Detailed feedback at the end of the video. I know I was hard on it, but only because I can see this being awesome!

Very good game i like it so much.The full game when it's going to release?

Hey Awesome game!  I also have the idea to make a 2D old school survival horror like Resident Evil, This is very well done. Congrants! I'm still playing it, I hope you finish the game, I'm following.

This is the kind of horror we need more of nowadays.

Did a little review on your indie game to tell our fans. Keep it up!

Inventory on widescreen monitors shows up offset to right

It's pretty hard to differentiate obstacles from floor at some places and find passage

Could be nice to be able to interact with objects from all sides

Some parts I loved and others I didn't. You've absolutely nailed the visuals and sound design, by the end I was impressed that the game could convey important puzzle information with only six pixels. However it doesn't seem that the player is meant to fight back, and because of that I was confused as to why I got a pistol so early on. Monsters take over a magazine to kill, or the pistol is wildly inaccurate, and you only get about 3, as far as I found. Without any sort of visual health indicator, taking a number of hits in a hallway you're encouraged to explore feels a little cheap and it's hard to tell how much damage you've done onto the monsters. I'm excited to see a horror game in this style but the combat needs some fine tuning. It also appeared that the inventory was displayed partway off the screen. I know this is just a demo at this point so all I see is potential refinement.

Just finished playing, as you have mentioned already the KB+M really needs work, very clumsy and hard to control. 

I thought the grainy look to the image might be a bit to much, definitely have some in there but I just felt it was too much.

Need a fullscreen option as many times I was clicking off the game in window mode.

Perhaps change the aim to allow for full movement on the crosshairs, at the moment its aim the way you are facing and with a short distance. (Unless I'm doing something wrong?)

Atmosphere was great, really felt creepy, perhaps add more sound effects like creeks in the floorboards when walking over certain spots. 

Reminds me of that online web game...Dead Frontier, but with a RE twist.

Keep up the good work!

Really cool game. The art style is great and the atmosphere was spot on. The keyboard controls were strange, but i know the controller was recommended. The camera also feels too zoomed.  But those are just my opinions it was a great game.
