Thank you for playing the game CJUGames! I hope you and your viewers enjoyed it! As a solo developer, I strive to fix any issues as quickly as possible. I deeply appreciate the community's feedback. I believe the latest patch has addressed all the reported issues and enhanced the overall gaming experience with plans on adding a few extra things here and there. It's still a surreal experience for me seeing people play my game.🤯 Fun fact: 'Ontotis' actually means 'entity' in the Greek language. 👻
I wish you the best of luck. It's definitely not the most unique game out there, but I can see what you were going for in spots. I hope you can really learn more from this experience, and keep at it.
This felt like a really long tiktok, thanks to those voices 🤣 Edit: I just wanted to say something for the potential future devs of this and other games... I don't know how the VA scene is currently but when I was doing it, there were tons of people looking for opportunities to voice something, either as a paid gig or a chance to gain experience for free... use the available resources online to find real voices, that can provide better acting than AI, you could make someone's career.
@@SPG8989I don't get why you feel the need to defend this game so hard and being passive aggressive. People are just giving the dev feedbacks so they can improve if they choose to continue their own career. The AI voice especially takes the player out of immersion.
It's weird how some games can be really scary and keep you on edge. Then there are games like this, the entire time I was watching it, I felt like I SHOULD be uneasy, I SHOULD be scared, but... yeah it just didn't do anything for me. I felt like it had all the right elements I guess, but it just sort of came up short.
Cause it is pretty poorly made, not to mention PAINFULLY generic. The torch that goes through batteries like it runs on nuclear power. The multiple locked doors. The dark, dreary, empty house full of shoddy assets and empty draws. The fusebox. It just keeps barrelling towards mediocrity at such an incredible speed.
@@TheMadAfrican1just like you said. No one is like "And then there was a fusebox.. and a fuse was missing 😱" Don't want to be rude, but sadly it's painfully generic.
I think it's the audio, just doesn't have a scary atmosphere. Also, and I've found this with a lot of indies recently, but the AI voice acting just breaks the immersion too much which also lessens the scares
How can you forget a game with such a unique "voice acting"? I loved that fact that you can forgot Robert in the supermarket - that would be the twist!
@@TheMadAfrican1 Yeah, and that's okay. Maybe not for bigger games that cost a ton, but for a single person just making games for fun in their spare time? Go for it!
this is far from the only culprit but there really doesn't need to be so many games about a guy with a dead wife and/or kids (especially when it's a "bad dad" situation)
I think you could've still done something with the wedding band and also the grandfather clock next to the basement. Maybe the wedding band goes on the hand sticking out of the mirror?
My niece also wanted to be a knight when she was about 2 or 3... and simultaneously wanted to be Joan of Arc... and also a fairy princess. I think I have a picture of her in her pink princess dress, with gauzy wings, her plastic helmet and chest plate, and her Joan of Arc shield, sitting atop her little red tricycle and wielding a pool noodle "lance" :D She was yelling to her older brother- dressed as Saint George (so, he wanted to be a knight as well)- about how they had to go and slay a dragon. They then proceeded to attack one of the trees in our yard with their pool noodles :P
We need more urban legend based games. Would love a fishing game where you encounter one of the lake monsters, like Champ (Nessie, but it'd be too cliche for the lake monster) or Jersey Devil.
There was already a Nessie game, but that was basically the Bigfoot game but underwater (though it does have a Kelpie easter egg). But the game was abandoned and is left as a buggy mess stuck in early access limbo which it would never come out of. Maybe someone can make an Ogopogo game, that creature's supposed to have a serpentine look to it which would make it more unique.
At some point I was like 'What is this, the Conjuring House???' xDD Whoever makes floorplans for horror game houses REALLY needs to be put in therapy...
I enjoyed the playthrough very much. I think the game kept you a little bit on your back foot, so it wasn't totally trope-ish. The translation was awkward in parts and the *Alan Wake* influence was clear in the overwrought monolog. Some of the scares and misdirection came at the expense of a logical progression, but it was still enjoyable for me. Also, the degree of interaction was impressive and the visuals were great, with the exception of the holy water founts catching fire; that effect was so primitive that it looked out of place with the rest of the game. Thanks, Chris!
“This path is empty..like my soul..and this storm is as dark..as my soul..even the tone of my voice is rough..like the turmoil in my soul..”-beginning dialogue
Lots of detail for a solo-developed game, and good interactivity. Beyond that, it's pretty lackluster. We've seen the storyline before--no surprise there. And, although I read that the game has multiple endings, I'm not sure any of them would make a bigger impression than the one CJU got. Yeah, sadly, just "meh" for me. Thanks for the 1-1/4 hour long game anyway, Chris.
Finally slipped into your vampire costume, eh? **takes out a handkerchief and dabs the blood from your chin** Always dribbling you. 😋 I've always held a slight interest in the mythical "Mothman" That's really the only reason i watched this one. I fully agree with you. Very "meh"
@@shadowjudge921Yeah, the mothman interests me, as do many urban legends. I just don't think it was used in a very effective way. It seemed kind of thrown in there. **dribble, dribble** 😆
@@Scriptor13 I think someone said in another comment that if you put the ring on the finger in the basement, your character dies and joins his wife. I think the problem with this game is a lack of direction. All the contradicting objectives and the fact that there didn’t seem to be any action icon for the hand when Chris first went down there, makes it unclear whether there could be a different ending. But that being said, it’s still decent for a one-person dev team.
I know that Ai voice stuff is often the only option for small indie game devs, but the way it's used here was just reaaaalllly tough to get through. I would've rather it been voiceless tbh
It's not 'the only option for poor struggling artists'. That's just straight-up propaganda from the people (companies, more accurately) pushing this stuff. If a project desperately needs voice acting and they can't afford to pay VAs, I would prefer that developers do it themselves, or even rope some friends into it for a beer, over AI any day-at least that would have had some personality to it.
@@SpaceManRD As an artist myself I don't disagree at all, I would rather not have Ai used in the first place for *any* of this stuff, but I was trying to be a bit more....judicious? Understanding, I suppose, to the dev since from my experience coming out swinging against someone never helps the issue and just makes people feel attacked and double down. But I think that's the kinda issue/discussion not suited for a RUclips comment section :p
Hi! Where you from? You mentioned covid and it got me wondering.. is it still raging, or raging again?? I kinda live under a rock in a forest in europe, but I have heard or read close to nothing about covid being at it again.. And hope you feel better soon! 🧣🍵⚕️
@@aenesthesia good for you, living under a rock🙏🍀🤣best place to be. Covid ist still running around, actually since July...at my part of the world....some cases of Covid but not as bad as before...but Covid is still a thing...
imo , horror devs really ought to start making a "no fuse puzzles" rule and sticking to it. 😂 ( and alternative / better light sources , or at least make it so FL aren't crappy , make the FL last longer and not eat through batteries! or better yet give an explanation that ghosts / evil forces at work are the reason why the batteries run out so fast. People who investigate ghosts - I hate calling it ghost hunting - claim that electronics do get their batteries drained a lot , the spirits taking the energy in order to manifest or just mess with people or what ever )
I swear I have seen the outline of this house in the latest indie horror games. Once more though, you are doing an incredible job in playing this. Thank you for braving these.
I completely agree with you, Chris. As you said, not terrible in the slightest (especially for a game made by a solo dev), but also so, so generic. The main problem is that the twist/reveal is telegraphed way too soon, imo : main character's wife died in an accident, he finds messages like "this isn't real" and "wake up", then that article around the 32min mark saying "woman died in a car accident and husband in a coma" and I thought : "well that's him and this is all a coma dream, the end". So that made the remaining 40 minutes a bit less engaging for me, tbh ^^ Also, that AI voice was just sad. I understand budget constrains, but it was so distracting how emotionless it was in the face all the crazy shit happening to the main character.
This game felt like a weird grab bag of elements. It felt more like trying to locate items or solve simple problems in a house in the middle of the woods, vague backstory, and then randomly, there's Mothman. There were certain elements that I expected to play more of a part, like the big storm they talked up in the beginning. Then there was the slow pace of the game mixed with the lifeless "voice acting" thag was the nail in the coffin for me. And what exactly was the point of going into the forest behind the house, except to get chased by random monsters that you only see for a few seconds?? I feel like it would be really cool to see a Mothman horror game, but this made him seem like an afterthought that was tacked on.
I kept thinking of Max Payne after you mentioned him. The guy zooms around like it's an old FPS and the torch is a pistol. Just needs the bullet time. It's actually not bad though and some of the jump scares are pretty good even if a lot of them are lol moments. Nice detail and interactivity in the house but the game doesn't know how to build tension. It's more like a to-do list that has you rushing around completing tasks with jump scares thrown in.
You had me at mothman. Edit: for those w/ sound issues it may be the YT app on phone. Works fine on my tv and pc but not my phone EDIT2: the issue has appeared to be resolved
It was fun watching you play this! Wish we could have found out what was up with the wedding ring, grandfather clock and her arm that was coming out of the mirror? Was there another ending? Your great!!!
did anyone alive today see CJU play Lorelai? or the cat lady? sally face? all these years later and i am still waiting on the next one of that ilk. it will happen one day... perhaps i will even be alive to see it 😏
I remember them. CJU back in the day used play a good mix of games, but recently they all seem to be these rather terrible indie games with the same gimmicks, graphics, plots, etc, or they're brief demos that he never follows up on. I mean, ""Layers of Fear 3" has been out for months now and considering how much he liked the previous games it's surprising he hasn't even acknowledged it.
Lol. I’d have been out of that entire area before ever setting foot on its ground. The mold and probably asbestos alone is a hard nope. I remember thinking that thing is & has nested in that house already so boarding up windows and what have you does nothing. The voice acting though, I think I’d rather chill with the moth man.
The door in the upstairs bathroom, you had to close it to get into the cupboard behind the door, but when you left the bathroom, the door swung out into the hall!
You can tell the developers were heavily influenced by Pineview Drive, the house getting bigger as you go, the lights switch set up/flashlight with batteries, the sound effects, and jumping scares are very reminiscent.
You know, more than a bit disappointed. Despite the mentions of Mothman, it doesn't feel as though that really did anything. It was just another haunted house walking simulator, with instructions and story both a little bit unclear. You can almost see what it *wants* to be, but it doesn't... really get there. Almost makes it worse in some ways for me - I would have loved a Mothman game! But I didn't really get it. Still, sometimes the first step to making something good is making something *not* good first. After all, I *could* sort of see what the dev was going for. If they polish their skills and keep at it, that could lead to something great.
Why do game devs still think in 2023 that flashlights that require batteries is a good thing? Just stop doing that already. Also, that house layout looks awfully familiar. Can't recall at the moment in which game I saw that house before.
It's realistic , especially if you have a cheap flashlight. But yeah , I always applaud devs that think out side the box and either have other options besides flashlight and / or long lasting batteries , alternative light sources , etc.
@@uros.u.novakovicI'm talking about them needing batteries in the 1st place not how often they need to be changed but cheap / bad ones do seem to need new batteries a lot. Most indie games have crappy FL ( imo because other devs are dumb and think dark = scary and having to worry about crappy FL helps with suspense but ...no , it just annoys / frustrates players , they are kind of right but wrong at the same time about dark = scary...know what I mean? And have you never had a cheap FL? Genuinely curious , not trying to argue. )
Your comment was about batteries in general, not how long this games takes before they burn out. So yes, batteries are realistic and should stay. @@uros.u.novakovic
Agree with the final sentiment, game is very average, mid. There's elements of survival horror, RE sort, the puzzles were fine but I can't really pin why the flashlight mechanic is there. It's built up then suddenly taken away near the end for no real reason other than making it a bit harder. There's an understanding what the genre has but the execution is lacking. Ai VA didn't help there was emotion when it was needed. Mothman was the draw and it was just kinda...there, basic lore given but could've been replaced with any sort of spooky creature like the grim reaper or something.
Thank you for the Video. Number one thing That is very crucial that this game needs fixing is the brightness of the Lamp.. Like my eyes hurt and it is not even half of the video..Couldnt see much ogf the game coz of it. Looks interesting though. Hope the Dev will keep working on it and polish it up.. GG
Could they have picked anything more docile and harmless than a moth? And since when do they have talons?! At least if it'd been a brown tail, it might have made the main character itchy....?
The most amusing thing in game is the protagonist who know that a door is "locked from the other side". I know it's a game mechanic, but, How can you possibly know that!
Having great visuals means nothing if you have poor writing. It's such a shame this game didn't have a better script or it could've been quite good. Also, I seem to recall that statistically, a chair falls on someone every 8(?) minutes or so. This seems to just about match the frequency of chairs falling in the game. Coincidence?
You passed another note just be on he body in the grave in back you turn it was on head stone and yet your follower that joined you did not inform you whatever.
I think you were supposed to put the ring on that hand popping out of the mirror in the basement... you missed a journal page in the graveyard, might have been a clue...
Only 40 minutes in and all I can say is: top notch graphics and cheap and cheesy jumpscares. Nice game, though... But the sandman is calling me to go into the dream world... 😴😃
Yes . This is a standard size home in the country. I loved everything about it . Good memories unfolded. The ceilings were too low . And of course Chis and his Awesome commentary And sence of humor makes it all good.
you can glean no more from the shinn. and then mere minutes later: ROAR! said nothing and no one apparently. if this is not love, then there is no logic involved in me watching these videos for the past however many embarrassingly many years. you would have to reach through the screen and smack me with an open palm for me NOT to thumbs up this.. how to define the days (or WEEKS?!?) i have spent watching these.. my GOD, its full of stars??? do i need help? do i need to help others??
The earlier you are to a YT video upload, the longer you have to wait for it to fully upload properly. Sound issues, resolution bugs, other issues. RUclips is only around 20 years old, it's understandable they wouldn't have ironed out their systems yet.
th issue is that the game goes for psychological horror but would have been far better as a monster chase type game. Secure the house and fight off the Mothman. Also the AI voice acting did nothing for the game. The House exploration was decent and could have been so much more.
Well, that was underwhelming. There are SO MANY things I could say but no-one wants to read a rant. But I will just point out that the game keeps mentioning claw marks and feathers. Since when have moths had either claws or feathers?

@@SPG8989 That mindset certainly isn't going to make the developers' careers. Have some standards.

sightings of the mothman are controversal. is bringing disaster,,,or warning of something bad to come?
The door in the upstairs bathroom, you had to close it to get into the cupboard behind the door, but when you left the bathroom, the door swung out into the hall!
I agree with you 100%! I did enjoy the monsters chasing you in the woods part.😁👍
You can tell the developers were heavily influenced by Pineview Drive, the house getting bigger as you go, the lights switch set up/flashlight with batteries, the sound effects, and jumping scares are very reminiscent.
You know, more than a bit disappointed. Despite the mentions of Mothman, it doesn't feel as though that really did anything. It was just another haunted house walking simulator, with instructions and story both a little bit unclear. You can almost see what it *wants* to be, but it doesn't... really get there. Almost makes it worse in some ways for me - I would have loved a Mothman game! But I didn't really get it.
Still, sometimes the first step to making something good is making something *not* good first. After all, I *could* sort of see what the dev was going for. If they polish their skills and keep at it, that could lead to something great.
that was good loved it it was confusing for awhile
You youngings dont know how fresh uploads work?
I like how the random laughs were just the boo sounds from Mario
Why do game devs still think in 2023 that flashlights that require batteries is a good thing? Just stop doing that already.
Also, that house layout looks awfully familiar. Can't recall at the moment in which game I saw that house before.
It's realistic , especially if you have a cheap flashlight. But yeah , I always applaud devs that think out side the box and either have other options besides flashlight and / or long lasting batteries , alternative light sources , etc.
@@kalezuki9231 realistic? What flashlight requires battery swap every 30 seconds?
@@uros.u.novakovicI'm talking about them needing batteries in the 1st place not how often they need to be changed but cheap / bad ones do seem to need new batteries a lot. Most indie games have crappy FL ( imo because other devs are dumb and think dark = scary and having to worry about crappy FL helps with suspense but ...no , it just annoys / frustrates players , they are kind of right but wrong at the same time about dark = scary...know what I mean? And have you never had a cheap FL? Genuinely curious , not trying to argue. )
I've seen that house in other games.
Your comment was about batteries in general, not how long this games takes before they burn out. So yes, batteries are realistic and should stay. @@uros.u.novakovic
Maybe I'm weird but all my batteries are in the same drawer at my house also I keep the spare fuses on top of the fuse box.
Agree with the final sentiment, game is very average, mid. There's elements of survival horror, RE sort, the puzzles were fine but I can't really pin why the flashlight mechanic is there. It's built up then suddenly taken away near the end for no real reason other than making it a bit harder. There's an understanding what the genre has but the execution is lacking. Ai VA didn't help there was emotion when it was needed. Mothman was the draw and it was just kinda...there, basic lore given but could've been replaced with any sort of spooky creature like the grim reaper or something.
Thank you for the Video.
Number one thing That is very crucial that this game needs fixing is the brightness of the Lamp.. Like my eyes hurt and it is not even half of the video..Couldnt see much ogf the game coz of it. Looks interesting though. Hope the Dev will keep working on it and polish it up.. GG
Could they have picked anything more docile and harmless than a moth? And since when do they have talons?! At least if it'd been a brown tail, it might have made the main character itchy....?
my door jams are always connected to my electric. every time i blow a fuse, doors lock and cease for function from "this side" right Chris? 😉
The wedding ring could’ve probably gone on the hand coming out of the mirror in the basement!!!
Is there no sound or is something wrong w my phone😮
It's something with the RUclips app. Chromecast works fine but I can't hear it on my phone.
I upped the quality to 1050 and now it works yeeey
@@justinspeck1186thanks it's working now❤
Your phone
@@mahmoudalmarzooqi9396oh wait you fixed it yay!!
Anyone having sound issues, closing the video, and just reopening it seemed to work for me.
The most amusing thing in game is the protagonist who know that a door is "locked from the other side". I know it's a game mechanic, but, How can you possibly know that!
There should be an achievement of opening every damn drawer and cupboard in the house.
Audio is missing? Noooo!!!!
Having great visuals means nothing if you have poor writing. It's such a shame this game didn't have a better script or it could've been quite good.
Also, I seem to recall that statistically, a chair falls on someone every 8(?) minutes or so. This seems to just about match the frequency of chairs falling in the game. Coincidence?
Mothman is friend. Indrid Cold would never harm us.
I cant stop it...10 Batterie man...L.O.L
You passed another note just be on he body in the grave in back you turn it was on head stone and yet your follower that joined you did not inform you whatever.
I think the wedding ring was supposed to go on your wife’s hand in the mirror of the basement!
Damn where's the audio?😏
21:51, that's a Boo from Super Mario 64!
This vid was great Chris
I like the matching shirt and background.
23:15 Well I wanted to be a Paladin!
my daughter has a pet plank as well.
55:10, that's the year i was born LOL
Video isnt allowing HD. Only allows 360p. On PC.
UPDATE: HD is working now.
Maybe the wedding ring can be placed on the hand coming out of the mirror in the second basement, leading to the bad ending (dying in coma)?
Love your videos ❤
Like Sanitarium. Everything represented a struggle for life.
That’s like the Redrose house from Stephen King. My word how big is that dang house? Lol
Had to tell you man... Penumbra: Prisoner of Fate Chapter 1 is officially out, and I CAN NOT WAIT for you to play it!
I have audio but only 360p :/
Thanks for sharing your are the best!
Alan Wake vibes at the beginning there
I think you were supposed to put the ring on that hand popping out of the mirror in the basement... you missed a journal page in the graveyard, might have been a clue...
Urgh the AI voice is like nails down a chalkboard
No way the mothman took the audio
Ey the games actually pretty good!!
How did the protagonist prepare spaghettis with meatballs when there's no cooking facility in the shack?
Only 40 minutes in and all I can say is: top notch graphics and cheap and cheesy jumpscares. Nice game, though... But the sandman is calling me to go into the dream world... 😴😃
Hi Chris 👋👋❤❤😊
A little confusing, but not bad of a game good job 👍
Enjoyable playthrough.
Yes . This is a standard size home in the country. I loved everything about it . Good memories unfolded. The ceilings were too low . And of course Chis and his Awesome commentary And sence of humor makes it all good.
I’m sorry you couldn’t be a ten battery man. They did you dirty.
you can glean no more from the shinn. and then mere minutes later: ROAR! said nothing and no one apparently. if this is not love, then there is no logic involved in me watching these videos for the past however many embarrassingly many years. you would have to reach through the screen and smack me with an open palm for me NOT to thumbs up this.. how to define the days (or WEEKS?!?) i have spent watching these.. my GOD, its full of stars??? do i need help? do i need to help others??
Oh wow. That's the year my father was born.
World's quietest let's play. I don't hear anything I'm sure it's not on my side?
The earlier you are to a YT video upload, the longer you have to wait for it to fully upload properly. Sound issues, resolution bugs, other issues. RUclips is only around 20 years old, it's understandable they wouldn't have ironed out their systems yet.
@@Blisterdude123 I never would have guessed that, since its never happened before, my entire time on the pootubez. Thanks for the explanation!
My audio is working now. Yay!
th issue is that the game goes for psychological horror but would have been far better as a monster chase type game. Secure the house and fight off the Mothman. Also the AI voice acting did nothing for the game. The House exploration was decent and could have been so much more.
I wanted to put the ring on the hand in the basement!
Maybe the ring could have gone on the hand in the basement?
Well, that was underwhelming. There are SO MANY things I could say but no-one wants to read a rant. But I will just point out that the game keeps mentioning claw marks and feathers. Since when have moths had either claws or feathers?
