The game's alright, but I have some questions. Are you planning to add a melee option to the game? Because it could be very possible that the player would be left without any ammo to defend themselves, especially during their first playthrough.
Unless that is your intention right? It so, that is pretty cool. I had to avoid fighting some enemies to save on ammo.
I'm really not a fan of the small demon enemies. They're fast, silent, and hard to notice until they already inflicted some cheap damage on me, which just feels a little unfair in a game where health would be scarce. Maybe you could have them play a sound cue to indicate that they chasing the player?
As for the boss of the demo, all I could say is that I wish the lighting sword attacks give a little more time for the player to react to. Overall, I didn't have a bad time with the game despite it's kinks. I may stick around to see the progress of it!
This is an extremely early prototype of a game inspired by Doom, Silent Hill, and Dark Souls. I am mainly publishing this to gauge interest and see if this game is worth continued development. Thank you for your time and if you play the game please leave a comment of what you thought. I don't have any play testers at the moment so your individual input is extremely valuable to me. Thank you, again.
If development continues, I plan on making around 9 weapons, movement power-ups, a large variety of enemy and bosses, an interconnected level system where you get tools that allow you to access other levels, and a story presented through the environment, dialogue, and notes. The "tutorial" area will be changed in the future as well as the title screen and the intro sequence. (Which is currently non-existent) My current design philosophy is - The world design of Dark Souls, the atmosphere and story telling of Silent Hill, and the combat of Doom. These all will have my own tweaks and style added to them obviously.
This download contains 1 level that takes around 10 - 30 minutes to complete. There is currently no saving or options available. #horror #adventure #action #retro #survival #shooter
