The reason the apartment looks the same in this game and the ghost sheet game is because they're old Soviet Bloc apartments! Those all had similar if not identical layouts and these games capture the sort of grimy, old feel of them really well
Many people in Hungary live in these blocs built in the Societ times. Honestly as depressing as they can look and feel, they were amazing as kids. You on the playground and your mom shouting from the 3rd floor to come back home. An old lady telling you to be quiet outside her window. Being sent to one of those TINY grocery stores. Going through the creepy, tiny basement "cells" to bring your bike out.
@@boredsoul3490 I think most of the creepiness comes from how they haven’t been maintained. If you look at old image or ones that have been renovated they look quite homely.
@@janetmontalvo6944 no, homogenic architecture has a negative psychological impact on people. And it is intentional, as well as just practical. Of course they looked better new but they were always the source of oppressive atmosphere. Inside they have similar anti human qualities because they were meant to be as homogeneous and as cheap as possible for the working unit. You could make it homely insise of course, outside not so much. But when you see it in a game or after you've been away from home for a while of course it may feel nostalgic. That will wear off quickly if you move back. As much as the new buildings may try to downplay it in exterior, the towering buildings full of repetitive patterns will stay at least somewhat depressing to be around.
I love how around 18:45 the entire forrest goes quiet. You no longer hear the trees blowing in the wind or hear crickets, as the life in the forrest went quiet because they felt a threat. Love the attention to detail.
This person played one too many games where the ladder-climbing speeds are painfully slow and they were like, "FUCK THIS SHIT, *LEAP UP THE LADDERS LIKE A FUCKING GRASSHOPPER*"
32:47 sometimes the best sound design is no sound design, I think everyone would expect an alien spacecraft to make noise as it rockets past at high speeds. Having a massive object like that blast by with only slight breeze is harrowing. This game COMPLETELY subverts expectations, and seriously blew me away. If you ever read this, amazing work Adam.
Yes exactly, and other than the fact that Alien is still unknown to us, this could be how they "sounds" for all we know. So using the "unknown" to make your own interpretation is great
@adamdubigames your game is absolutely captivating. I have never had my attention grabbed so thoroughly by ANY game ever. I was on the edge of my seat taken away by how amazing it was. Great work.
It's the attention to detail that really sells environments like this. People will argue the whole "it's using haze to cover up blah blah blah", but the fact that at 23:50, they cared to have the long grass fold as the van ran over it instead of just getting clipped through shows the difference in quality from this developer.
I think Siren: Blood Curse did this since they did "episodes" instead of chapters in the game. I'm not sure if Until Dawn did the same thing. I might be tripping 😂
The fact that one single person is making this is mindboggling to me. It looks so damn good. It's great that this is getting more eyes on it because it really deserves the attention.
It never ceasesto amaze me that single indie developers can make such mindbogglingly amazing games. The atmosphere was so wonderfully creepy and built up thefeeking of dread and hypervigilance. So good.
I'd say Triple-A studios should hire this guy, but honestly, he should start his own studio. This guy's natural talent backed by a team of even ten other creative minds? Holy crap, it'd be insane!
If I were this dude I would try to stay away from triple-A studios with this amount of talent as usually when you get hired they take away most of the creative freedom from the developers and just kinda just make you follow orders from people who have no idea about what makes a game good, Adam has an incredible spark that should be kept far away from greedy studios
20:00 I love how Sean was so blown away by the light in the sky he didn't even notice the aliens, it's not the aliens he was fascinated with, it's not the aliens that amazed him, it was "ooo shiny! Graphics pretty!" lmao
You're not kidding. Especially with a game like this, being snug under a blanket really adds to it. Only thing that could have made it better is if it was a rainy, gloomy day, and I had some hot chocolate.
with the double-person scene in the beginning, and her saying she has the same scar, I have a feeling that this "twin sister" is actually herself. like maybe the aliens took a duplicate of her when they saved her and gave her false memories or something? still curious how this story unfolds either way. I'm excited to see more from this dev!
Jack doesn’t show it in the video for whatever reason but the first newspaper he reads talks about how a bus full of kids disappeared, leaving only two identical twins, who claimed to not know eachother, or ever have any siblings
It's actually really cool that the dev made the ball at 9:00 bounce. It's not a big deal and but most games would have had it just roll away or something, and that extra little attention to detail is cool to see on an indie game.
@@sakuraio5514 It is, but a lot of indie devs disable it because physics is the mother of all bugs (missing brackets are the father). To keep them in is a huge amount of extra work, but it's also really satisfying by giving the game more weight to it.
the cinematography and pacing here is fucking phenomenal, re-used assets or not the way they are put together here is incredibly cohesive and the direction its going is really intriguing, guy has talent telling stories thats for damn sure
Yeah. That's a difference between a stupid asset flip with no depth and no actual creativity, and someone using these assets to make something incredible. It's so cool that nowadays Unreal Engine and the marketplace of assets allow people like this dev to make their vision come true. Just a few years ago it would have taken a full studio with finances to achieve something looking this good & with so much going on. With a lot of people losing faith in the crap the the big studios shovel out and these new tools making a lot of things possible even for solo devs like here, I'd wager we're gonna enter a golden age of indie games
i’m so speechless at this. it looks phenomenal on its own but adding the amazing sound design and atmosphere makes it almost unrealistically good. this guy has some serious talent holy shit
Speaking of kidnapped buses full of children, there's a case from Chowchilla, CA back in 1976 where 3 men stopped a bus full of children and kidnapped them, burying them alive in a bunker to try and get a ransom from the government. They overslept and didn't actually ask for the ransom in time, and the oldest of the kids who was like 14 was the reason they survived because he someone managed to get the top latch off. It's both quite interesting and horrifying at the same time.
I've heard about this case before and I think there's another case just like this as well. Truly horrifying at most but also oddly interesting at the same time.
I love the color they have for when you were initially following the lights. That bright magenta, almost ultraviolet color, is something unnatural & alien & so perfect. This is an amazing game so far, I am so ready for full story, worldbuilding, & lore bc it looks like there’s a lot of it to come.
I’m not epileptic but flashing lights definitely bother me and it’s unbearable in a dark room while I’m going to bed so thank you so much for the warnings❤️☘️
@@karljuliuz bright light messes with my astigmatism. like driving at night or in the rain, people who have their high beams on, stop lights are unusually bright. and i have glasses but don’t wear them often
@@xerxcey8967 not wearing your glasses is your problem then mate. I got astigmatism as well and I wear mine all the time or use contact lenses, as I have a hard time reading stuff without them. The bright lights thing is gone too with glasses, no more headaches. Look after your eyes man.
The formation the alien beings take on looks just like a murmuration of starlings!! For those that don't know, starling birds make these really incredible otherworldly shapes in a pattern called a murmuration-- definitely worth a Google. Wouldn't at all be surprised if this was the basis for the design of that scene! Super cool
Omg you're right... I didn't even think of that, but it does look like that. That makes it even cooler and even more alien somehow, which is amazingly bizarre, considering it's invoking a very real and very familiar image from our world as we know it.
THIS??! IS FANTASTIC???!!! The layout narrative is out of this world in this game, it really feels like a place that could exist, and every little details makes the story believable. I was about to put this video in the background and work as usual but damn, this game was so good and beautiful it made me drop everything just to watch. Please please please give this guy the means to create even more freely, that was a JOURNEY omg.
I genuinely cant thank you enough for actually caring about the epilepsy warning and giving times. The amount of videos ive watched that had no warning and have led to some pretty rough seizures is unbelievable :((
Seriously, it is so badly needed. It gets forgotten even under accessibility departments. The first big game I worked on, I spent 4 weeks untangling muzzle flare from a firearm's shots because we had several (required, by the gun companies that paid us) semi-automatic weapons in-game that fired at a rate that was enough to trigger seizures, especially if a player was standing near a reflective surface. Another week arguing with the art department about repeating patterns taking up so much of the screen. I'd worked smaller projects, but I had also worked Sony/MS/Nintendo Certification and Standards and the very first items on those "can we release a game or not" are about epilepsy standards. It's not exactly a new concept!
@majesticallyderpydragon its honestly forgotten about way too much even just in everyday life. Anytime i do see warnings put in or a creator warn about it in the beginning of a video i thank them. I see people complain that it takes away from their experience which upsets me alot because if that's the case and its no longer warned about then we don't get to experience it. Thank you so much for being a voice for us 💗
I was so confused 😭😂 I was doing some laundry while watching the video and my heart skipped a beat cause I thought there was someone behind me and it took me a minute to realize that Sean just spoke german to me
I really love it when you tubers put warnings for flashing in the beginning and then another right before it. As someone with bad photosensitivity it's really appreciated. Jack's editors are so thoughtful.
I'm a game design student and this is my exact aesthetic. This game gives me inspiration and courage to continue learning and hopefully one day i can get to this level!
I dont say this lightly but I would classify this game as actual art. What an incredible take on the alien abduction storyline. Very interesting narrative - he should make this longer. Maybe with a bit more gameplay elements.
for a solo developer to make this game is astonishing, down right absurd, silly even. not many triple A companies can make something of this quality. bravo Adam, keep it up
Honestly it astonishes me how developers consisting of ONE person can do SO MUCH, this is literally better than over half of what AAA companies are able to do! It's inspiring
This game was SO refreshing, the inventory system, the character feel, the vibe of the whole thing, not to mention the graphics and sound design! The creator has my full support in anything else they make, GIVE THEM A GOOD PRODUCTION BUDGET ASAP 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love the use of magenta for the sort of guiding light. It's such a stark, vibrant color that it stands out perfectly against the muted greys, browns, and yellows of the rest of the environment.
especially since Magenta is known for being a color that isn't technically "real", as in irl magenta is pretty much just something our brains made. (I promise im not just spewing bs)
This game is amazing, Glad a big creator is show casing it. I played this a while ago and I can't wait for Episode 2. Thanks Sean, I am sure the developer will be ecstatic you are playing his game, since this is a solo unreal 5 project!
One guy making this is pretty awesome, because it has more polish than a lot of AAA games I could mention, and the attention to detail and stuff like the sound design are off the charts.
The story, the visuals, the sound design, the atmosphere, this game had it all. I hope the developer doesn't feel pressured or rushed to get the next episodes out asap because he truly has a talent for telling stories through games and as long as he does what he does best, the next episodes will be just as awesome as this one.
He also asked, "Who's that?" as the car sped off... There was literally only one other person around, Sean..... WTF do you mean, "Who's that?" *facepalm*
The thing at 33:15 reminds me so much of Jean Jacket from Nope. I freaking loved that movie. The concept of the alien life form was insane, I've never seen anything like that anywhere else.
I think the reason that Sean couldn’t kill the alien at the end was either because he was meant to fail as a cliffhanger, or he was supposed to shoot the bulge on the back of the alien. It looked like the aliens back was turned specifically for the purpose of showing where to shoot, but Sean completely missed it somehow. 😂
As someone who doesn’t have photosensitive epilepsy but has had a seizure before, I genuinely appreciate it when people warn / put time stamps in. Sometimes flashing lights do induce migraines for me also so it’s really appreciated that you take it seriously for your viewers!!!
I think Jack was referencing the game September 7th that he played a while back... at the beginning of the game when he found the apartment layout familiar! I remember because it had that scary elf!
Daaaame this looks so good the visuals and the sounds are unbelievable. The fact that it's being made by one person alone is incredible that person definitely needs to be supported because just him alone this is incredible. As well as that sound that the person made for the alien forget it is just peak.
This is one of the best visuals I have ever seen in my life, if not THE BEST already! , sound effects, NAILED IT, plot and storyline, NAILED IT , I mean, it's UNDERRATED
Everything about this game is so interesting and /very/ unnerving, but the scout/murmuration at 33:08 gave me chills. I hope the second episode comes out soon, I NEED to know what happens.
I'm feeling pretty good right now. Just started therapy, cleaned my room, got some laundry done, changed the cats litter, fed the cats outside, took trash out, got food, smoked, and now I get to sit down and watch Sean while I eat:) EDIT: I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind works, it's much appreciated
It's the little things, and everything counts. Depressed mind is a weird thing for me; too often I'd rather use every cup shaped object to drink tea from, or any utensil to eat with rather than fill my dishwasher. So yesterday I did a bit cleaning like that too, and stupid simple stuff as it was, I feel better. And I have clean tea mugs now.
This is unbelievable. I cannot believe this was made by one person, thats insane. Good on them honestly. And i really enjoy your chilled out lps, they're excellent company.
Absolute masterpiece of an indie game. The sound especially was UNREAL, design was stunning, nerves were constantly confused. This dev needs a budget because man, this was unreal. What an amazing year for indie devs
Honestly, I would probably throw everything around in that one room and accidentally block myself in as well 😂 I love it when you can find something completely outside of the game's story and then you're sitting there for several minutes fighting with the inanimate objects because you couldn't leave it alone and now it's a mess but it makes it all the more fun and an overall better experience than if you hadn't interacted with that area at all
Very good! I love the floating bodies, I personally had quite a few dreams depicting that phenomena and Love that I'm seeing a realistic depiction of the scene of it. Thanks adam!
That was absolutely fantastic. The pacing was great and kept the suspense up, the visuals and style were gorgeous, and the sound design was delicious. The part in the field with the towers and the alien cube thing blew my mind with the sound quality.
Wow. Just wow. One of the most atmospheric and beautiful indie horror games ive ever seen. That whole segment with the trees creaking as they were being sucked in was absolutely phenomenal!
I, like you jack, have not stopped being like "zomg this is so COOOOOLL" the entire time i watch you play. this is amazing - like others have said, I think we need more, much more from this developer! xoxo
Wow this is just absolutely amazing, everything about it is just fantastic, the visuals, sound, aesthetics etc are all incredible, love it all Its hard to believe one person alone made this, very talented, cannot wait for more
I have watched so many people play this now and everyone finds different things others don't, there is so much content in this that everyone miss out on :D really made to be explored fully.
This was sooooo sick, just like Jack said. For me as well it was ticking all of the boxes in my brain of what i absolutely love in horror! This was probably the best looking game i have ever seen, like my god this the kind of stuff/imagery i want to make in my films. This game is a 1000% my brain in a nutshell. I loved this experience so much, from the imagery to the esthetic to the sound design. I have goose bumps, more of this please!! 🔥 🔥 🔥
That was amazing. I love games that are crafted this painstakingly good. The Dev so deserves more appreciation for this, honestly. Can't wait for chapter 2!
Another scary gameplay vid? Hell yeah, thanks Seán! Also would love to see you play the new Chilla’s Art game, I have been holding off on watching any gameplay of it because I want to watch yours first! ◡̈
I have seen this a while ago on another channel and it truly blew me away. The note at the beginning tells us that this is a passion project but the game itself really shows that
to be completely honest, this is the type of comment i expect to see under almost every one of the kubz scouts videos, BUT NOT IN THE JACKSEPTICEYE'S COMMENT SECTION. still had a good giggle tho.
I first watched this in Evelien's channel and I immediately thought you'd like the sound effects of this game. A lot of things here remind me of Annihilation and Roadside Picnic in with its sounds, eerie beauty, and sci-fi horror/cosmic horror like with the deer.

The fact the creator put "handcrafted by" instead of "created" or "produced" just shows how much love he put into this.
Dude get this guy a production budget, this looks SO FUCKING GOOD
Please get him a production budget and let him keep all creative freedom on the project though because this is AMAZING
Agreed

Absolutely!!
FRR He needs a GOOD opportunity to go through with an entire story for this. This is so fucking good

I was so confused 😭😂 I was doing some laundry while watching the video and my heart skipped a beat cause I thought there was someone behind me and it took me a minute to realize that Sean just spoke german to me
I wasn't prepared for the suddenly perfect german XD
i love people using random german expressions makes my language feel better to me hahaha also it sounds so adorable imo
wait, where is this again?
@@kebabit7076:19 Here ya go
I really love it when you tubers put warnings for flashing in the beginning and then another right before it. As someone with bad photosensitivity it's really appreciated. Jack's editors are so thoughtful.
I'm a game design student and this is my exact aesthetic.
This game gives me inspiration and courage to continue learning and hopefully one day i can get to this level!
I dont say this lightly but I would classify this game as actual art. What an incredible take on the alien abduction storyline. Very interesting narrative - he should make this longer. Maybe with a bit more gameplay elements.
Sone cut scenes too.
for a solo developer to make this game is astonishing, down right absurd, silly even. not many triple A companies can make something of this quality. bravo Adam, keep it up
Honestly it astonishes me how developers consisting of ONE person can do SO MUCH, this is literally better than over half of what AAA companies are able to do! It's inspiring
This game was SO refreshing, the inventory system, the character feel, the vibe of the whole thing, not to mention the graphics and sound design! The creator has my full support in anything else they make, GIVE THEM A GOOD PRODUCTION BUDGET ASAP 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@adamdubigamesInsane work Adam, can't wait to see you grow 🫵🏽
I love the use of magenta for the sort of guiding light. It's such a stark, vibrant color that it stands out perfectly against the muted greys, browns, and yellows of the rest of the environment.
especially since Magenta is known for being a color that isn't technically "real", as in irl magenta is pretty much just something our brains made. (I promise im not just spewing bs)
This game is amazing, Glad a big creator is show casing it. I played this a while ago and I can't wait for Episode 2. Thanks Sean, I am sure the developer will be ecstatic you are playing his game, since this is a solo unreal 5 project!
One guy making this is pretty awesome, because it has more polish than a lot of AAA games I could mention, and the attention to detail and stuff like the sound design are off the charts.
Wait ONE PERSON created all of this!!?!? HOW!!!?!? That is insane. He needs to be discovered cause he is going places.
The story, the visuals, the sound design, the atmosphere, this game had it all. I hope the developer doesn't feel pressured or rushed to get the next episodes out asap because he truly has a talent for telling stories through games and as long as he does what he does best, the next episodes will be just as awesome as this one.
I like how 19:50 he didn’t notice the aliens walking toward him 😂
Oh my god, I didn't even notice them 💀Thanks for pointing this out. This game is phenomenal!
I was looking for this comment! Same!
I noticed it immediately, I thought he did notice them but he didn’t :(
HELL I didn't even see that til now Jesus Christ. I was like Jack, too distracted by the damn floodlights
He also asked, "Who's that?" as the car sped off... There was literally only one other person around, Sean..... WTF do you mean, "Who's that?" *facepalm*
I feel like there was so much more to this game that jack missed cause he was so eager to get abducted. lol
The sound design of this game is an absolute masterpiece... Imagine giving this guy a AAA budget and letting him go absolutely wild. Insane.
The thing at 33:15 reminds me so much of Jean Jacket from Nope. I freaking loved that movie. The concept of the alien life form was insane, I've never seen anything like that anywhere else.
This dude just blew me away, jesus from just the audio like goddamn! The visuals and the style was just fucking amazing. This dude will go far.
You just have to wonder how far indie horror games have come, they look AAA nowadays
and vice versa for how AAA games look nowadays, at this rate we'll be getting AAA shovelware and indie game of the year contenders.
True, unreal 5 is insane all these indie games looks great even if the game itself is bad it still looks amazing
I think the reason that Sean couldn’t kill the alien at the end was either because he was meant to fail as a cliffhanger, or he was supposed to shoot the bulge on the back of the alien. It looked like the aliens back was turned specifically for the purpose of showing where to shoot, but Sean completely missed it somehow. 😂
As someone who doesn’t have photosensitive epilepsy but has had a seizure before, I genuinely appreciate it when people warn / put time stamps in. Sometimes flashing lights do induce migraines for me also so it’s really appreciated that you take it seriously for your viewers!!!
this was some fucking insane talent holy shit. Well done, developer
I think Jack was referencing the game September 7th that he played a while back... at the beginning of the game when he found the apartment layout familiar! I remember because it had that scary elf!
I don't often click on the horror gameplay videos but something about this one made me want to check it out and I did NOT regret it
This game looks phenomenal. As Jack said, the sound, atmosphere, and storytelling. Hats off to the developer.
I would love more alien horror games, this was so cool! I feel like it's a fairly untapped genre.
Daaaame this looks so good the visuals and the sounds are unbelievable. The fact that it's being made by one person alone is incredible that person definitely needs to be supported because just him alone this is incredible. As well as that sound that the person made for the alien forget it is just peak.
I am blown to smithereens, what an absolute masterpiece of a video game
This is one of the best visuals I have ever seen in my life, if not THE BEST already! , sound effects, NAILED IT, plot and storyline, NAILED IT , I mean, it's UNDERRATED
Everything about this game is so interesting and /very/ unnerving, but the scout/murmuration at 33:08 gave me chills. I hope the second episode comes out soon, I NEED to know what happens.
yees great sounds there
I'm feeling pretty good right now. Just started therapy, cleaned my room, got some laundry done, changed the cats litter, fed the cats outside, took trash out, got food, smoked, and now I get to sit down and watch Sean while I eat:) EDIT: I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind works, it's much appreciated
Sounds like a productive day! Good job rat Jesus 👍
hell yeah good for you
love you rat jesus
Nice work!!! ❤ We're proud of you!!☺️👏🏽💜
It's the little things, and everything counts. Depressed mind is a weird thing for me; too often I'd rather use every cup shaped object to drink tea from, or any utensil to eat with rather than fill my dishwasher. So yesterday I did a bit cleaning like that too, and stupid simple stuff as it was, I feel better. And I have clean tea mugs now.
I am literally going to empty my entire wallet for the developer, how the fuck did they make this beautiful masterpiece
The sound design was freaking amazing! I felt uneasy throughout the whole play through!
Coming home to a Sean update is like coming home to a warm meal and tea :) LOVE YA SEANNNNN
Not me making a cup of tea when I saw he uploaded.
This game's atmosphere is IMPECCABLE. Made me want to immediately rewatch Midnight Special and Arrival.
I am honestly not really into aliens and all, but this was so good! The setting, beautiful visuals and the sound design!! Loved it.
This is unbelievable. I cannot believe this was made by one person, thats insane. Good on them honestly. And i really enjoy your chilled out lps, they're excellent company.
This one deserves all the love, lets support this one and help him expand the scope.
There is so much potential in this one, love it
Adam is nothing less than a gigachad for doing this
Absolute masterpiece of an indie game. The sound especially was UNREAL, design was stunning, nerves were constantly confused. This dev needs a budget because man, this was unreal. What an amazing year for indie devs
I was so focused while watching this, it's so good. Can't wait for the next chapter!!
Holy crap, this has got to be one of the coolest games I’ve seen. Right with Jack in that this ticks soooo many of the boxes, I can’t even
Honestly, I would probably throw everything around in that one room and accidentally block myself in as well 😂 I love it when you can find something completely outside of the game's story and then you're sitting there for several minutes fighting with the inanimate objects because you couldn't leave it alone and now it's a mess but it makes it all the more fun and an overall better experience than if you hadn't interacted with that area at all
Very good! I love the floating bodies, I personally had quite a few dreams depicting that phenomena and Love that I'm seeing a realistic depiction of the scene of it.
Thanks adam!
i hope this dude makes more of these games this is a treat, huge props
I am so happy to see a Hungarian game getting the attention it deserves!
The aliens appearing from behind the house/building at 20:00 was soo creepy. I dont think jack noticed them though
That was absolutely fantastic. The pacing was great and kept the suspense up, the visuals and style were gorgeous, and the sound design was delicious. The part in the field with the towers and the alien cube thing blew my mind with the sound quality.
Wow. Just wow. One of the most atmospheric and beautiful indie horror games ive ever seen. That whole segment with the trees creaking as they were being sucked in was absolutely phenomenal!
I knew Sean would love this game after seeing Evelien play it. It looks so good, cant wait to see how the story unfolds
This is incredible, but I hope the second episode is much longer. This one ended right when you were getting into it.
I, like you jack, have not stopped being like "zomg this is so COOOOOLL" the entire time i watch you play. this is amazing - like others have said, I think we need more, much more from this developer! xoxo
Wow this is just absolutely amazing, everything about it is just fantastic, the visuals, sound, aesthetics etc are all incredible, love it all Its hard to believe one person alone made this, very talented, cannot wait for more
Thought this was going to be just another spook but this game looks so good, the sound was amazing! So good, can't wait to see more.
Watched Vinny and Joel play this, honestly really incredible and promising as an entire game! This video is sure to give it some needed attention.
I have watched so many people play this now and everyone finds different things others don't, there is so much content in this that everyone miss out on :D really made to be explored fully.
This was freakin awesome I really hope you play more when it releases fully
absolutely loved Evelien play through this and I was WAITING for you to pick it up because it feels like you'll dig the visuals a lot
I want a 100 hour game of this 😩 Checks all the right boxes for me, I love it
I love how you find a needle in the middle of a rusty, grungy basement, don't bother sterilizing it, and just put mysterious liquid inside for later.
This was sooooo sick, just like Jack said. For me as well it was ticking all of the boxes in my brain of what i absolutely love in horror! This was probably the best looking game i have ever seen, like my god this the kind of stuff/imagery i want to make in my films. This game is a 1000% my brain in a nutshell. I loved this experience so much, from the imagery to the esthetic to the sound design. I have goose bumps, more of this please!! 🔥 🔥 🔥
That was amazing. I love games that are crafted this painstakingly good. The Dev so deserves more appreciation for this, honestly. Can't wait for chapter 2!
Jack never fails to be entertaining no matter what game he plays lol
Bro 😂
Another scary gameplay vid? Hell yeah, thanks Seán! Also would love to see you play the new Chilla’s Art game, I have been holding off on watching any gameplay of it because I want to watch yours first! ◡̈
Wow this was amazing to watch. The sound design was amazing as Sean said there! I was enthralled
10:51 I actually thought that was in the game wtf Jack was way to too smooth with that
The atmosphere of this game is so good. I’m going to buy it and support this creator.
I have seen this a while ago on another channel and it truly blew me away.
The note at the beginning tells us that this is a passion project but the game itself really shows that
the sound design was freaking amazing! I hope we get to see more of this, this was epic!
Jack never fails to spread our cheeks and fill us with content
he what now
WOAAAHHH
to be completely honest, this is the type of comment i expect to see under almost every one of the kubz scouts videos, BUT NOT IN THE JACKSEPTICEYE'S COMMENT SECTION.
still had a good giggle tho.
AAAAYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOO😅
Pause.
I first watched this in Evelien's channel and I immediately thought you'd like the sound effects of this game. A lot of things here remind me of Annihilation and Roadside Picnic in with its sounds, eerie beauty, and sci-fi horror/cosmic horror like with the deer.
This game is amazing! Adam is such an amazing Dev! I can’t wait to see episode 2!
Watched Gab play this & was really hoping you'd end up playing it. So glad you did!
