For presumably a first time dev, it's a perfectly fine experience. The atmosphere and most of the sound design is pretty on point. is it perfect? Oh no. Not at all. But it's worth the experience. If just to support a one man indie dev at least.
游戏氛围不错,支持中文就好了
Pretty meh. Not really scary and most of the game is searching for items and looking all over the place for them to progress with very little happening. Also no manual saves and the auto saves aren't that often even for a short game so unless you want to lose progress you can't just quit out whenever. The story so far I think I have a good idea of how it's going to end and I'm deciding if I really want to work through the painful process of finishing this game.
Juego corto de terror psicológico con una ambientación que te envuelve desde el principio. Sin estancarse son 50 minutos de juego. Hay que tener en cuenta que lo ha realizado una única persona pero está bastante logrado, personalmente me ha gustado :)

There is an atmosphere to Ontotis and some creepy visuals here and there. I think the thing that really took me by surprise was how underwhelming the scares were as it never really felt like I was in any real danger from the antagonist. When you get closer to the end of the game it becomes clear that the game needs to be fleshed out a bit more. I definitely didn't hate it and would love to see more from this developer but there are a few things that I think if they were added would definitely add to Ontotis: [spoiler] - A chase/stealth sequence with the antagonist - More buildup after the intro sequence before the jumpscares start coming in - More sequences with enemies, like in the house or graveyard. There definitely need to be more moments where the player can actually fail./ - Health removal, it takes too long to die from the enemies in this game and really takes you out of the experience. If this could be made into a 1HKO or 2HKO it would definitely make the in-game hostiles into more of a threat. [/spoiler] Would recommend if you're new to horror or if you're just looking for a quick indie horror to try out
[h1]I can't really be positive[/h1] I really want to be kind, I just cant, too short to warrant any money being spent on it, it has nothing to be fearful of, nothing to really challenge you, no gripping story, no beautiful artwork to admire. Just a big pile of nothing, such a shame. However if you have a spare hour and it is on offer or better yet free, give it a go. maybe the dev will make something better in the future.
