Little Town Secrets

I cannot recommend this game in its current state. I was genuinely impressed with the game beginning and ending with a cut scene and I can see the dev's vision in this, but the overall product isn't worth the cost. I will happily re-visit this review after some updates come out! *Update 7/13 after first version update* The developer fixed a few issues, like the stairs and a change to the video effects, however in doing so it seems they introduced new issues. The most notable is that the player character is now too tall and has to crouch to enter most doorways. I quickly found myself in a house that I could not exit because I couldn't get low enough to crawl out even though I managed to glitch through the boarded up door originally. Also the settings menus are now completely weird scale wise and impossible to edit. I still cannot recommend this game, and unfortunately it's borderline unplayable now due to the new problems. I hope the developer of this game can take some real time to make it playable and relaunch it in a better state so people can enjoy it! *Original Review* My biggest criticisms surround the design of the world. It needs a lot of polish. -Roads are too long with nothing on them (especially in the end-game, to the point where I checked my phone while holding W cause it took so long to get somewhere). The walking speed is also way too slow, even if you hold shift. -All the stairs are too high so the player has to press jump per-stair to go up them. -Nothing on the map is interactable except newspaper articles and keys. Early in this is annoying but later it makes you basically ignore most of the environment and just look for keys. -The use of AI art for paintings in the world is 'fine', I understand why a designer would do this, but they don't fit the aesthetic at all. I'd either scrap them or do more work to have them blend in with the environment better (damage, tearing, aging). The camera effects are fine, but there is this 'jump' that happens sometimes that is jarring. I ended up minimizing the game and checking my tasks to see if my PC was acting up but eventually I realized it was the game itself. The spooks are fine. I genuinely wish there were more of them or they were more than just momentary jump scares. The story is nice. It's clear what happened, it creates a goal, the goal is achieved, and I think it's cohesive. My expectations are appropriate for the cost and size of the game. I hope the developer keeps working on this! The game feels like a developers sandbox published too soon. It has all the bones needed for something nice but it just needs some player focused design to hit the finish line.

The style of the game is good

Ingyen kaptam a játékot a fejlesztői csapat megkeresésére. Én nem kaszálnám el a játékot első kőrben. A sztori és az elgondolás nekem igen is tetszett. Vannak benne már már vicces részletek is itt ott pláne ha Magyarként játszod a gamet. A map hatalmas lenne benne még lehetőség de mivel ez az első horror játéka a csapatnak én az árra úgy tekintenék mint egy támogatói lehetőségre , hogy a csapatnak adjunk lehetőséget egy még jobb játék fejlesztésére. Szerintem jó az elgondolás a sztori a map és a grafika is jó egy ilyen gamehez. Jumpscareket keveselltem.A szellem lehetett volna kicsit durvább.A helyszín kapcsán és a terület nagyságában én úgy gondolom lett volna még bőven plusz lehetőség bele csempészni pár plusz dolgot de összességében nem volt rossz a sztori félépítése. Amit hiányoltam a több nyelv lehetősége opciot. A menü egyszerű mint a faék de így tökéletes. Én látok benne fantáziát és lehetőséget.

nagyon jo kis játék csak ajánlani tudom!
