Crimson Hell

Unplayable, full of bugs, issues... to bad bcs the art is kinda nice.

Overall I really enjoyed the premise of the game. The art style of the game and narrative direction is interesting. I feel like the choice to make fire salts be so plentiful makes the rest of the salts feel a little useless since I would just use my fire salts to just kill whatever came at me without much worry which made the game a little less scary. I also ran into a bug where I wasn't able to use anything in my inventory whatsoever so it made the last half of the game frustrating but also not impossible to finish. There were also areas at the hospital level that were very clearly unfinished. I could see where the map ended and sections of the map that were clearly meant to be non-euclidean. If I could make a suggestion level 2, I would recommend making it more tight corners to increase the fear factor of wondering what might be around the next corner. Otherwise, I can see a monster running from far away and either avoid it or just kill it once it's in range. As for the geometry of the map there are clever ways to hide it's non-euclidean nature by adding trees in front of windows so that it's hard to see far beyond that. I think some tweaks to the game design and fixing the bugs could make this a very promising game.

I've only reached beyond the courtyard as of now (No spoilers to where/when that is) and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. The atmosphere is fantastic. You can certainly see and feel the art direction clearly. Music? Bangers. Gonna need the soundtrack. I'll admit I'm not wild on how items are placed around, feeling rather sporadic, but it's understandable with the setting. Inflection on the voice acting could use some work, but most of the lines feel very clear and with feeling. Movement feels good, and collision of objects is pretty clear as well. ♥♥♥♥ Jeremy though.

Naprawdę z całym szacunkiem do osób odpowiedzialnych za tę grę, ale zdecydowanie jej nie polecam. Przynajmniej nie w obecnym jej stanie. Rozumiem, że prosta grafika to ukłon w stronę nostalgii za czasami pierwszego PlayStation. Rozumiem powtarzające się modele przeciwników, nawet jeśli część z nich wygląda jak Pokemony. Mam trochę mniej wyrozumiałości dla zapętlonych utworów, które przy 4-5 odtworzeniu zaczynają być zwyczajnie nudne. Ale mechanika stawiania kręgów ze soli zwyczajnie nie działa. A gdy zginąłem chyba 4 raz w dużej sali z dwójką przeciwników (upiorna dziewczyna i jakieś wychudzone dziwadło) na ekranie game over zniknął na dobre kursor, więc musiałem zamknąć grę. Po uruchomieniu okazało się, że nie ma opcji kontynuacji, więc musiałbym grać od samego początku... Przykro mi, ale nie. Tym bardziej szkoda, że ręcznie rysowane grafiki są naprawdę ładne.

The art and voice acting are definitely strong points of this game, but all of the bugs and not having an option to save is not very cool. This game definitely has a lot of potential and for what looks to be a school project, it's great.

For a school project this game exceeds expectations. The game moves well, the music is nice, the art style and graphics are really well done, and it actually runs above 100 fps which is always a plus. There was a lot more content than I initially had thought, the levels were well made, and interacting with the game felt smooth Couple of notes I had taken throughout my playing 1. The game has some bugs that are at best a workaround and at worst game breaking. 2. The story is brought onto the player rather quickly and is fairly hard to follow. I understood that there was [spoiler] some tragedy in the main character's past, but even now having completed it I'm still a little lost on the whole thing. Why is the school bus driving to a different school? Why is her teacher of 4 years the one that killed that one girl (I think her sister)? I understand the notes were meant to help the player learn what was happening, but due to them being optional reads I mostly skimmed through them or ignored them entirely. [/spoiler] 3. Not as scary as I hoped. I will say the game did make me a little nervous from time to time with the strange noises and enemies sneaking up on me because their noises wouldn't play, but the enemies would get stuck a lot which took a lot of the immersion out of the game I'd love to see the game grow and iron out some of those bugs/quality of life improvements. Keep up the work guys you all have bright futures -Ryan P.S. Need to give Man #2 more voice lines, that guy killed it

Vorrei davvero tanto consigliare questo gioco, seppur non spicchi per lato tecnico e grafica, il presupposto è carino, ma è praticamente impossibile giocarlo perché su 5 try mi si è buggato 4 volte l'inventario, mi è impossibile prendere gli oggetti, combinarli e usarli ed equipaggiarli. Peccato.
