I love the blinking mechanic... more games should have these extra layers of immersion! https://youtu.be/yPihIGew4bA
Very fun concept right here, and the fact that you don't realize how often you blink until playing this makes the experience even scarier. There's not much to say though besides the main mechanic. Giving it a thumbs up as it's quite enjoyable.
PLEASE MAKE A GAME LITERALLY JUST LIKE THIS BUT LONGER PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAah
I really enjoyed the demo and its concept The webcam being linked to my IRL blinking was really immersive and enjoyable although it made me realise how often I blink. If there's a possibility for changing the duration of the blink in the game, I would enjoy it even more. Overall, would buy this game when it comes out!
Great concept and implementation. And free too! Pros: Unique application of the weeping angels concept. The atmosphere is also well done. Getting the player used to the blinking mechanism through the eye scanners is neat as well. The little snippets of story are also neat. Cons: The game stutters REALLY BAD. I don't know if it was just my computer or what but it was bad enough to make me want to stop playing. Normally I would turn of v-sync but graphics settings such as that are not avaliable. It also takes almost as long to get the blink detection set up as it does to play the actual game. This game is free but unless the quality issues can be fixed I can't recommend it.
