I really enjoyed playing this game. Gameplay is sweet and graphics are pretty nice. It of course needs to be updated but the early access itself is great so far. Keep up working on it.
Great movement, however I feel like for a game that's as dark as this is, you should have the flashlight always follow the camera, as at times it was hard to see where I was going. (You could have the flashlight mounted to the players head like in the RE2 remake) The atmosphere kinda conflicts with the gameplay loop, it's odd that it's supposed to be a horror game but there's leveling up and money and weapon upgrades. It's not bad just odd. You seem to make it work. The enemies often sneak up on me and because of the flashlight not following the camera it's hard to react to them in time enough to not at least suffer some HP loss, there's no sprint (or perhaps it just wasn't working for me) which made some engagements basically a death sentence. I think putting a limit on how much ammo you have would be fine if the enemies didn't respawn indefinitely, like, if I cleared the map once and then go into a room (or just wait a few minutes) all the enemies I just killed will come back. It lead me to just ignoring enemies unless they were close enough to attack me. There needs to be some indication of you taking damage like a screen flash or camera shake, sometimes I wasn't aware I was taking damage. Definitely, definitely need to fix the flashlight following the camera, I would add some grunts/groans/some kind of audio queue to alert the player to an enemy aggroing to them, and maybe a small, faded glow to the little worm creatures so they can at least be seen somewhat in the tall grass. Also, if you need help with art assets at all (some of those MS Paint pictures were pretty cringey) I would love to contribute in some way, I'm pretty familiar with photoshop and have a drawing tablet. I'm definitely gonna check out the other "The Code" in your library as well as follow the production of this one. It's flaws notwithstanding this was a really fun demo.
When I first downloaded it I had trouble getting to run. I found that by moving the game folder to my desktop it got the game up and running. Not sure if anyone else will need this tip.
looks freaking lit for a game this new, downloading it rn and trying it out
Like you said. Here is the video link. Subscribe to my channel. I am very excited to play the full version of this game. If you want me as a game tester for your project I would be very glad to work with you.
Mysterious creatures have taken over a valley, and Yael is the only one who can figure out where they came from and stop them. Set off into the fog to fight back the monsters and figure out where they came from. chapter 1 is available now, and when we build up interest and funds we'll start on chapter 2 😁. #horror #action #rpg #shooter #mystery #unreal #tps #thriller
Apologies to anyone that downloaded and had trouble playing, but the new build is up and we were able to get it loaded and playing on my mother in laws tiny laptop, so it should be all good. thanks for your patience, and we hope you enjoy! :D :D :D
taking the build offline for a bit to tend to an issue, I'll put it back online when it's fixed.

This is our first game demo, so we hope you enjoy :D. my wife and I came up with the story together and I built it. We're the epitome of indie, I learned from youtube lol, so comments and critiques are more than welcome. it's the only way we'll grow.
one more thing, the loading screen seems to go a lot quicker now lol. you can pause the game with the enter key or the start button on a gamepad, and from there you can check the controls if they flash by too quickly.
The graphics settings should be automatically set to low, you can update them from the pause menu if your computer isn't a potato like mine. only other tip i can think to add is use that dodge roll ability (Left bumper or left ctrl) it comes in handy.
Hello everyone, if you're seeing this page, thank you for checking us out!
when you download the game, unzip and run the "The Code" executable.
that should be all it takes. If you have any questions or feedback for me, please let me know! :D
