Several notes 1. Needs more fog/mist to make it more claustrophobic and forces players to make slow and steady paces. 2. Have the character make noises, like hearing the breathing through the gas mask and makes grunts when being hit or running low on ammo, even make different breathing noises like near death or faster breathing to indicate fearfulness of player. 3. Have background noises like soldiers screaming and yelling, with the occasional distant gunfire being heard I know this is a demo, still in the early stages, just providing feedback
+1 on the sounds. For WW1, I would generally associate it with the constant barrage on your senses which led to shell shock. Artillery was being pumped by both sides 24/7 which would make it impossible to hear opponents on foot. Being unable to hear or see (due to fog or smoke) would make it seem more realistic to WW1 and add to the survival/horror aspect of the game. Great looking game so far.
Finally as a German! It would be cool if there were many characters featuring all countries that participated in ww1 (Italy included 😅) Kinda sad that they didn’t use actual ww1 guns
This looks like a lot of fun. I agree with some other folks, 1.More fog/mist makes more atmospheric, claustrophobic and forces the player to investigate closer instead of just shoots from far away. 2. Ambiguous background noises would be great, crows cawk, rifle shots periodically in the distance, faint screams in the distance. 3. My biggest thing is this seems more like the trenches of WW1, which i think is a fresh opportunity, they mainly had bolt action rifles, a few full auto guns, semi auto pistols and check out the trench weapons of WW!. THEY ARE BRUTAL. I think this would help give it a more survival horror feel instead of just getting a machine gun and mowing down enemies no problem. You would have a slower rate of fire with a bolt action, which could be cool and rely on melee attacks when in close quarters in the tight trenches! Good luck and I look forward to seeing more!
I'd like to see weapons authentic to that time for similar reasons you stated. This is not based in WW1 though and I don't know what the developers intentions are. And we had a badass pump shotgun so works.
Oh lord, the comments here are extremely negative. That is the problem with gamers today, they have absolutely no clue what it takes to make a game.. They look at the video for 15 seconds, then they write something idiotic and clueless in the comments and then they leave to do the same thing on the next video.. I am ashamed to call myself a gamer in this day and age. This footage looks outstanding taking into account that this is a solo dev project.. Yes, everything needs a good polish pass, but this is a very good base to build the rest of the game from. And very impressive coming from one dude ✊ The constant humming noise in the background, I could have done without though 🙂
Some actually valid to worry. I mean look at The Day Before. No offense, this one looks good to me too, but until full release, I’m taking everything with a grain of salt
@@vihuynhquang5204 this game might never be finished, or it will release unfinished. But that is ok. It should be very clear what you get if you buy this game, so if people don’t like what they get, it’s on them. I don’t mind buying an incomplete game, if it has elements I like, and if the price matches what you get
I think it’s kinda based off the Austrian Hellriegel 1915 submachine gun. A gun that never really saw combat. Although, if you go and watch the trailer for this game, there is an enemy that does wield a maxim looking heavy machine gun.
looks really nice! best wishes for the future! One thing that I noticed right away...the german helmets with spikes on top called "Pickelhaube" were not made of steel. The steel helmet you used for the character historically wouldnt have a spike on it. Pickelhauben were smaller and made of leather, most of the time with a cloth overcoat and the unit number printed on it. Personally I also think it would add to the tention if you had a slower firing, more authentic bolt-action rifle like a Gewehr 98 instead of a full auto SMG which the majority of soldiers in WW1 never were issued with. I also think the slow rate of fire and shortage of rounds in the clip would make the fighting a lot more tense, adding to thrilling survival horror gameplay.
This looks great for an alpha. My idea and personal advice would be to follow in the footsteps of Remnant 2 and mix it with the world of WW1 since this game gives the vibes of a dark souls-like game more than a resident evil title. I can see it may seem like re4 remake but i dont think that’ll cut it. Remnant 2 is literally alone with what it does and i think you have an opportunity to create competition for it
Also, by no means am i saying to be exactly like remnant 2. What im saying is to use remnant 2 as inspiration to make this game evolve with the ideas you already have and expand on it. The opportunity is too perfect to miss along with the lore, story, customizations, co-op multiplayer(no PvP),and to really develop an idea for worlds that can expand on these things with as many twist as you’d want
It's just amazing. Fantastic job, you did well. The atmosphere is really catchy. You need to add a lot of corpses of soldiers to the environment. There are a lot of corpses. Add the buzzing of flies. Add rats to some areas on the level. Add a heartbeat noise with an ear-popping effect. Add a cough for the character. Good luck to you.
@@CMan223-tr7rb There was already one. It must have come out some time before 2017. Forgot the title, but it was about a US citizen volunteering in the British Army in 1916 or so. After a slew of most-uncanny events, he ends up in literal Hell, where he becomes a major demon and does his best to keep the powers of Hell in check and prevent them from leaking on Earth.
@@kaostrip That's not how it works, lol. Such a common misconception but engines don't dictate how a game looks. Jusant is made using Unreal Engine 5 but looks nothing like this game. Examples from other engine, Unity, both Escape from Tarkov and Genshin Impact were made using that engine, they look anything alike to you?
it looks the same because this dev barely made anything new to add into the existing presets, assets, and game engine behavior.... you need a real artists or developer to make things thematic and with the art style thats different from the available UE premades.
This game looks great for being alpha! The horror aspect feels a little weak though, the landscape and design itself are amazingly well done but the game feels like it could benefit if you add a little more horror to the atmosphere. overall, it looks awesome. I look forward to the next update.
Hey! I helped Kickstart this game! Cool to see an alpha. What people are missing is that this isn't strictly a WWI shooter, it's inspired by the aesthetic, but more like Remnant or Bloodborne.
The setting looks amazing as ww1 is one of my favs, but for the moment nothing particularly stands out, it looks very generic, but looking forward to see more!
Stahlhelm Pickelhaube? mostly all were leather with the brass spike which was not just ornamental but functional to deflect sabre or sword blows. The metal Pickelhaube was for ceremonial use & was polished to a high reflective sheen. But I get the point, great gameplay & graphics are phenom.
I try to focus on gameplay when it comes to modern games because there seems to be an obsession with visuals but it is hard to ignore them in this. The environment definitely captures that bleakness of WW1 battlefields. It looks like you are walking through Hell on Earth and the sound design makes it even that much more unsettling. The gameplay looks solid and fun. I think there should be a look over both shoulders function so you can see around corners on your left side. Also love the design of the weapons. They look like familiar weapons of WW1 but they look as if the war continued on and the weapons were made deadlier and deadlier as time passed. Definitely going to go wishlist this!

Maybe implement a torch that is fuelled by those orbs when you kill a enemy; have a night/day cycle which encourages you to not just avoid all encounters etc; I don’t know if this is pvp or pve or both but it holds potential; maybe add some creatures that prowl in the darkness of the trenches something hell boy like
