I absolutely love this freaking game! Wish it had more of a backstory on the psychotic creep, and the suitcase. Hope to see this game updated in the future! GOOD JOB! "ferryliquid" Keep up the work!
The concept of 'Crowded. Followed.' had me hooked from the beginning - I could be wrong but I'm surprised that no-one has attempted an 'It Follows' type of gameplay mechanic, so I can understand why there has been so much fanfare for this. Well done on the execution.
Although short and succinct, there is palpable terror and fear throughout the runtime, with the creature continuing to pursue you that made me hold my breath in the subway. The audio cue that accompanies the creature when it's behind you has you paralysed with fear throughout. Accompanied with the frustrating element of people getting in the way, this really had me almost yelling at the screen in order to scavenge the right amount of money to escape.
Although the story elements are pretty threadbare, this definitely had me wanting to know more. The Pulp Fiction-esque mystery element with the briefcase, why this creature is continually dogging you, I'm invested in finding out more and where this story goes.
Hopefully the full game won't be the same mechanic throughout - I think you've got a really interesting concept and with the collection of money there could be scope for upgrades/ways to fight the creature etc. Looking forward to discovering more from you.
another nice vid, rheia :)
i have an idea for a video that you might be interested in but i see no way to chat about it with you on your profile or YT channel. if you are interested, check mine and get in touch?
otherwise, keep rockin’ and digging your choice of games like this :)
Loved the music and how your stamina needs to be used wisely as it doesn't replenish at the rate it needs to. The creepy music and everyone in your way pushes the level of horror up, good job mate :)
I loved this game! Takes a concept that most people don't use for core gameplay and runs with it! Story is intriguing, stamina is generous and the anxiety was real when you were trapped with the creature. I also like the idea of you having the option to get more funds before you leave for later progression. Really hoping for some expansion and a full fledged story on this one, had a blast. Great work!
Why did he go to the gunshot? Who is the mysterious figure? What's in the case? Is it the case from Pulp Fiction? Seriously, stamina regens way too slow and your running speed is barely faster than walking. This didn't generate anxiety, but it was annoying. A few fixes and some more insight as to what's going on and you got a decent game.
Was nice and creepy just how I like it! I enjoy that your stamina took a good while to recover making you HVE to conserve it instead of an immediate fill =P keep up the amazing work and cannot wait to see where this leads!
