Fantastic game, with interesting story, but, as most people in this comment section, I will have to point out that the graphic effects could be a little bit toned down. Other than that I would totally suggest playing this game and also I'm looking forward to a bigger game with this backstory!
The VHS filter is too intense, and when I try to move around the camera whips around like crazy, which only seems to happen when I am pointed at certain objects. It seems to change the mouse sensitivity to something increibly high, then back down again once the object is on screen. Sadly, one of the objects seems to be the hotel itself. I can't play it like this.
Fun game, although the camera effects could be toned down a little bit and it took a long while trying to find what to do to proceed to the staircase part, it felt kind of random, but aside that it's a neat game, good work :)
-filter (while too much) is a good look that has (thankfully) become very popular for a good reason
But, without criticism creators cannot grow, so:
*Too confusing after you lose your key.
*Effects are layered on so thick, just looking towards the front of the motel was kind of off-putting (made me a little queasy and I don’t have motion sickness).
*Tone down the effects, smooth it out, replace the manager voice with nothing at all or at least not the ‘villager’ sound.
A very confusing game. That doesn't make it a bad game though, but I've been spoiled [over the years] by FPS guiding 'you' somewhere. When the twists and turns grab a hold of you, you descend into the bowels of hell, and there's no escape.
Play the game, if you're trying to figure out what I'm saying... :o]
This was a pretty good game for being so short. That being said it was a bit light on the scares. However Howard's moaning made up for it. Still great game for being made in four days. Fantastic job!!
Very spooky game and good atmhosphere! The only thing i feel like was kinda missing is the direct horror. No big scares and nothin really unsetteling. athmoshpere wise perfect. but nothing really made me scared. But keep working! cool place
The game is sick and looked very much optimized,but some spiritual ghost entered my pc when i looked at the motel.The game was lagging when ever i was looking at it!.The game's story is very particular and do a particular thing to go along with the game which can take over 20 minutes for somebody!.The graphics looked amazing 90's low poly horror game.The best part that it was made in 5 days,its awesome!.10/10,Really deserving!.But try to fix the laggy issue!.Thanks
Nifty game ya got here partner, tense as a bail of hay! The text on the blue screen is cut off while playing 3440x1440 (as can see in video), everything else was great.
I enjoyed this game a lot! The graphics remind me of my childhood, so it hits the feels pretty good. Obviously it's a lil indie game, so expectations are not enormous.
Story: 3/5 - It's a bit vague and the only real insight given is about two conversations with Howard. Maybe adding a bit more interaction with the demon thing (forgot the name, so sorry :/). Otherwise, I think it's a really neat and entertaining concept! :)
Length: 4/5 - Just going along with the Story category and not giving it 5/5 because it'd have to be a bit longer to add insight. Length otherwise was great! Short enough to keep my goldfish-like attention span but long enough where I wasn't disappointed at the ending.
Graphics: 5/5 - I loved the retro look. That is all :)
Audio: 3/5 - Pretty sure I encountered the "party audio" loop at one point because it got a little quiet. Otherwise, more voice lines would be cool! Or at least some "moan" variations for Howard XD.
Solid job overall! Thanks for the good game experience :)
At the time of this posting, my let's play is still uploading and has roughly an hour left. Check back later if the link isn't working for ya yet! :)
Game have serious issues with FPS dropping whenever looking towards the rooms/front of the house. Also... it made literally no sense whatsoever. While there is a thin line between mysterious and annoyingly empty, this one is on the latter's side. No items, nothing really happens. Okay.....
Sorry to hear that the game isn΄t running as it should on your pc. The game was made in pretty much 4 days so I didn΄t have the time to optimize it as much as I΄d like. As for the story... Firemore will return...
Great work overall! I don't know why though but i get frame drops when looking towards the inn itself. I also gotta it's really refreshing to find something that doesn't rely on jumpscares to be unnerving.
The game was amazing. Some little bugs here and there however it didn't deter me from playing the game. I hope more comes out of the game if not a series based off of this game! Overall, give it a try, it's worth it!
Great creepy atmosphere to this game. The mystery is what really kept me hooked. I wish the ending gave us some more answers, unless this will be a series of games or this is just a demo. Overall though, good creepy game!
This was very cool and very trippy! I really enjoyed the look of it all and the uncomfortable feeling it brought on. The dropped frames in the beginning were a little weird at first, but it felt like it added to the overall atmosphere! A great game overall!
Great short horror game! I got lost a little bit after one of the sequences until the game dropped me into the final scene, but other than that (which could've been my fault lol) I really enjoyed it! Thanks so much for sharing your game.
I played this on my YouTube channel, if you'd like to check it out then follow this link!
Great game and really spooky atmosphere! Two small things that bothered me was that sometimes I was a bit lost and didn't know where to go and the camera felt a bit unresponsive and slow for my taste. But apart from that I really enjoyed it!
Here's some actual critique: This could be really well done, if there was more directions. I was there for a while wandering the entire map because I didn't have any hint of what I was supposed to do once I woke up for the first time. Secondly, you can kind of tell there was some sort of story you wanted to tell..? But you didn't really get much of it other than "cult". Just a bunch of random, creepy encounters, which sort of bugged out sometimes. Otherwise it's a great first game :D

Thank you so much <3 (Επίσης είμαι και εγώ έλληνας)

THEY SUMMONED A DEMON!?
This game has all the things that a good horror game needs: Jumpscares, demons, scary vibe... I recommend that you play this game! :)The linux build is broken, it gets stuck on a white screen after the opening text

Crazy fun thrill ride! The camera was a bit wonky but other than that the story was nuts! Check it out here!
-Great atmosphere

Kudos to all involved.
great game the sensitivity is all over the place but still fun to play
Good start to a game I think! Would love an update with some more content. Howard made it all worth it though haha!
This was a pretty good game for being so short. That being said it was a bit light on the scares. However Howard's moaning made up for it. Still great game for being made in four days. Fantastic job!!
Did not have any problems and it was also very creepy. Good Game!
Graphics and atmosphere are amazing.
I had two problems, a lot of lag when i look to the hotel and the mouse sensitivity.
In general is a good game and the history is interesting.
Keep up the good work =)
Had a bit of framedrops, but it was still very spooky.
might need to upgrade your computer, no lag here on a modern PC
I have a 3070 with a 10700k and i was getting frame drops so i'm not the only one.
maybe sneed got pre rtx 4090 thats why his dosent lag
no, just a very modest 3080 TI and 12700k with 4400 mhz g skill tridents...gotta game, yall!
Showoff?.Ikr.
What exactly is Howard's true identity?
I am very interested in the next one.
ハワードの正体はいったいなんですか？
次回作がとても気になります。
Your pal,
Sneed
Nice Game ^^
