I kind of felt lead, being told what to do instead of figuring things out by myself. It was a completely predictable game and ending. That has to be the laziest man alive, do a few things and go home to rest. I realize that this must be a student project, maybe a first released game, so good job and I hope your next installment comes to fruition.
More than 80% of the players, who play games likes this are clueless and need guidance. I literally had a guy, 2 comments below write to me that they were lost, because the last section of the game didn't tell them what to do, so even thou your experience is acceptable, it is not the only one and I hope you understand that.
I would argue about the predictability of the game, because I am 100% sure you didn't know that all the characters would die in the end and the patient would become the monster, well, at least from the start you couldn't, might have thought about it in the middle, but this isn't "Fight Club", or "Sixth Sense" or "Unusual Suspects" for that matter, so you are making a game something it is not - a short, atmospheric horror - nothing more.
Even with the triple A titles and high end, UE5 horror games, main characters are lazy and predictable, so, again, you are critiquing this as something it is not and never will be. This is not a student and I am way beyond being a student, so, maybe you can accept the fact that some grown ass people can have a hobby of making amateur games and just posting them for fun, sharing their imperfect stories. You wouldn't ask a random marathon runner if they will participate in Olympics, would you? They are just there to run for health reasons and have fun, so same goes here.
In conclusion, like I said your comment is acceptable for its subjective nature, completely valid, but don't think that it is factually correct. Cheers.
such a creepy game with a short interesting story, I loved the atmosphere. I kept getting confused with the door but it was my fault i keep forgetting i have to open it manually lol it was cool tho. I liked your game and I'm looking forward for more games by you. Keep it up! :D
You can't get stuck in the doors unless your purposefully wait in the door for it to close. Same way you can get stuck in the elevator door in real life if you don't move fast. Just an observation. Over 1000 people played it and I did watch every single video, no one had that problem. If you don't know what to do next, this game might not be for you. You get repetitive objectives and towards the end, the personal tells you exactly what to do, so once again, I can't help with that.
This game was dark and I mean DARK. I was not expecting stuff to go like that. But I loved it, probably one of my favorites I've played on my channel so far this year. Good stuff
I really enjoyed the game, the atmosphere was creepy and loved the game overall, the story was really good and kept me entertained all throughout! Can’t wait to see more projects in the future!
This was an awesome short horror game my dude! Very immersive, fun story, entertaining to try figure out what was going to happen! I was not expecting that ending at all! Super fun! The only thing I would say is let me kill the crazy scientist instead of the infected! I really enjoyed this game and recommend completely! Here is my gameplay video, sub and help my channel grow everybody! :)
I am an aspiring music composer, and I absolutely would love to do some composition work for this type of game. I have always loved this weird atmosphere. I’m trying to get experience in this industry, so I would happily do a project for you for no cost. If you are interested, please just reach out to me here or at my email anytime! Thank you, and keep making great games! (vlethestars10@gmail.com)
Muchísimas gracias por compartir el juego. Me ha encantado la trama donde tienes que ir a un laboratorio a trabajar con una médico déspota a la que tienes que satisfacer todas sus demandas y, al final, por supuesto, todo sale mal. Has hecho un gran trabajo, por eso te he dado 5 estrellas. Saludos!!!
This is a fun little horror game, there was a great sense of build up and tension throughout. I love how much personality there was in the dialogue and how you could create effective shocks without resorting to jumpscares (Jason was a big one). Brilliant game, I really enjoyed playing.
Nice short game that had a nice story build up as well as a tension build as well. It would be a bit nice to have maybe 1 more day just to see Dr. Susan panic before the day of the accident. Besides that, nice job.
Fun short game, the build up was solid and I quite liked how the dialogue was hostile between the co-workers, it was something different compared to the more bland chatting you get with NPCs in most horror games imo
I need more of this ! What is going on down there ? I feel like this story extends past its run time lol Either way this way really good.. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work !
I enjoyed this. It starts off as chill but the build up to the chaos was really good. Susan deserved the death she got. I wish we could've talked to Jason, he seemed like a chill dude. I knew something was up from the beginning because it's so many hazardous things in that little area. Also I can't believe what they had in that toilet. This was a really good game. I enjoyed playing this and can't wait to see what you make in the future. Keep up the good work.
This was recommended by Fearagen! I had fun with this one and I enjoyed the build up of the suspension. That lab was definitely a health hazard altogether aha. I liked the style of the game too, and I liked that there wasn't a jumpscare too! Great job! Here is my gameplay! Keep them coming
This was awesome! That shocking moment was really haunting and well done, and the story had me wanting to know more. My only nitpick is that the ending is quite abrupt. Looking forward to playing your next stuff!

Thank you for playing.
Got sometimes stuck in doors. And the game did not always prompt what to do next.
You can't get stuck in the doors unless your purposefully wait in the door for it to close. Same way you can get stuck in the elevator door in real life if you don't move fast. Just an observation. Over 1000 people played it and I did watch every single video, no one had that problem.

Included this in my 3 random horror game video!
Short but not at all! Definitely has a good story behind it for sure, especially the 3-day lead up. Made a video on it.
