VOID CRAWLER

very good

fun horror game

Really good game experience that takes 1.5 hours to complete. The story was pretty decent, controls were overwhelming at first due to having everything to know to movement of the ship and how to activate and maintain certain things but other than that, became easy. Scary were really good!!! My only complaint (and its really a personal opinion) is to maybe make the player feel like they need to manage their resources better over time since maintaining the The Mole (the vehicle that you control in game) felt like there was no consequence since it felt like there was an infinite amount of oil, coolant, and power charge that you can just breeze through the game without worrying that you are limited with resource. I think if you provided a limited amount of resources to the player, then the player can strategize the resources given so that it provides a feeling of stress that they need to be intentional with their movements or else their actions will cause The Mole to be damaged. Other than that, good game to check out!

It was a fun experience. Has some little scares mixed in. It is a short game and I am torn about if I would recommend this on sale or not, it took me about 120 minutes to finish but that is also partially me letting this run while I grab a drink or a snack, so I am sure that someone could do it closer to maybe 100 minutes? It's very reminiscent of Iron Lung in terms of the controls, although you can also move the craft you pilot in all four cardinal directions without turning which was a welcome improvement, although I understand that submarines don't really work like wheeled vehicles do. The achievements I can say are mostly straightforward so you don't have to waste time making sure you check and click on every thing while playing and I always enjoy just being able to play an enjoy and not be hyper-vigilant. I didn't really have any technical issues with the game, but the setting are sparse. I wish there was a brightness setting; in the beginning of the game you have to step onto a platform to be lowered down, and when it arrived at the bottom, I was't sure if the dark parts of the staging area were still pits or not I could fall into because it was so dark I couldn't tell if there was a floor there. This is a trope of horror games that needs to die. I get it darkness is scary, but if it's so dark the game becomes difficult to play, that's not scary that's kind of irritating. I also had a few hitches here and there but the game was mostly fine. My only other gripe was that the instruction pad was bound to F1, but so many other keys aren't used that I felt it could have been bound to something more convenient than F1, a lot of gaming keyboards are 60% and I don't have a F-row. The movement is also a little slow without sprinting, I wish the walking speed were just a tad faster, but overall these are small gripes. The gameplay involves a lot of maintaining the vehicle and this worked surprisingly well to fill the time and give you little tasks to do as you play. The game did feel like it was dragging a little towards the end, but there were other events that happen on every cycle that do help keep it interesting. But without talking too much about the story as to ruin it, it was an interesting experience that I think was worth the time and the money I spent on it. If you're looking for an indie horror game you could do much worse than this one.

Game about being a man whos lost his daughter so turns to an offer of piloting a vehicle to hunt for crystal artifacts in a dystopic underground cave. You have to stay ontop of your vehicles battery, oil and coolant levels while using a slightly clunky movement system. You do have to return to base after picking up every single crystal (of the 10 you need to finish the game) which becomes a little annoying but new paths of the map open up randomly after each return. Also, would have liked to be able to see the whole screen when pressing the direction buttons and the promised “hallucinations” only really happen so infrequently that while they are interesting they feel like they should be substantially more frequent as the game goes on. Overall, the gameplay is solid, if a little samey but its a good offering, especially for a solo dev.

Played the game for about 2 hours start to finish. Youtube video should be out in not too long after this review. Solid short horror game, and well worth the price i paid for it (steam- sale). Only critique i have is that i wish there would be even more horror- elements like music changing with the environment and maybe even a couple jumpscares. There wasn't enough elements of background/ lore incorporated into the game itself for me to really care about the main character or their story, which is a shame, as it could've really kept me on my toes if used correctly. I am not being critical in order to shame the creator or the final product, i only wish to shine light on the elements of the game where i see potential improvements and what could make the game a better experience overall for me as a player. You did a great job on the game, and as a solo- dev i salute you, well done! Can't wait to check out your other content as well

Would have spent 90 minutes if I didn't get stuck at one point but that might have been patched since I got this game at launch for 5 bucks and it was totaly worth it, a really short game made by a singular developer and man it is such a good game. The developer made the creepy atmosphere really creepy and disturbing, and without spoiling to much I did like the twist at the end but it was somewhat dissapointing since I thought that we would get a much more creepier ending, like if the developer added like less than 10 more minutes of gameplay I might have gotten the ending I would have wanted but despite that I really loved th story, the ending isn't bad by any means, it is good it's just that I expected a bit more from the ending. But yea it is totally worth 4 bucks (as I just found out that is the standard price now), very likely that you will finish the game in less than two hours but it was really good and worth it and I am impressed by the developer for making this alone. And at the time of the review it is on 50% sale for merely 2 bucks, I would say pay full price just to support the developer but man it is worth your money if you want a good and quick horror game for the evening :D

really?

Iron Lung but you actually know what to do
