It makes me laugh when you go from the normal but kind of creepy beach to a foggy street straight out of Silent Hill.
A crab using jeans is the pinnacle of gaming
Nah..
Is the one from one punch man
I feel like some details (e.g. what water looks like or how the boxes explode once you hit them) are a bit over the top, but overall I'd say it does capture the vibe of the old horror games and seems fun
I want to actually see a game like this made into something longer than an hour :/
There's a similar kind of indie game which length is 10 minutes and less complicated than this. The dev was pretty interactive and he said he made it in about 2 weeks. Imagine how long did they make this game. Though, depends on how many employees are there.
"No one lives under the lighthouse" is about an hour long but its really cool. would recommend.
ABG: Try to slash the costume guy with the axe.
Costume guy: *“Yeah this is weird, I know”*
jesus christ the size of this car LMAO 2:55
thicc car
I love the Alone in the Dark 1991 vibe. That game was sooooo God damn spooky.
It emulates some of the old style well, but somehow takes most of the worst aspects of the older games. That sewer level does not look fun, the door animations are grating, and there's a lack of character commentary (no clicking on objects and reading the character's thoughts). It's just moving from one place to another without any sense of urgency or motivation.
I agree. Combat system looks unpolished: most games of that era _balanced_ game around console limitations. Here it seems that it is virtually impossible to kill a normal enemy without getting hit. Not telegraping attacks for you to evade, nothing. There are multiple games to learn from: Resident Evil trilogy, Dino Crisis 1 and Silent Hill for survival horror-style combat. Nightmare Creatures for hack-and-slash combat, Dino Crisis 2 and Parasite Eve 2 for action combat, Syphon Filter for movie shooting...
And yes, not using character commentary to make up for limitations in enviromental storytelling. Like most classic survival horror games used. Or just use monologue and cutscenes like Soul Reaver did.
Door opening was almost exclusively used by Capcom to hide level loading, other studios used other approaches (from simply shoving loading screen on player to preloading parts of neighbour locations to make transition smooth)
It honestly look like a someones first game on some free game constructor would look in that era.
ALl the box breaking also is a little too much overdone. Whats the purpose of boxes? Just have the item with an little shine to it somewhere in the level that makes sense like RE1, 2, 3 and code veronica did.
They clearly love the old hunters DLC, but I think a boss gauge felt a little out of place for the style of game they're going for. Maybe some notes/diaries referencing the beasts could of worked instead imo. Just a minor gripe.
That being said Looks neat, and appreciate creators tackling more sea related horror.
As much as I love bloodborne (favorite game ever made) I think they’re more referencing shadow over innsmouth, which I’m sure you’ve heard of especially with you being into bloodborne. Just about everything in fishing hamlet is a reference to that story
@Zoomer Waffen DID YOU SAY JOJO?
@Zoomer Waffen I seent God. Ain't even that scary
Wow, always wanted to see what HP Lovecraft's Resident Souls would look like in PS1 form lol
Edit- I just wanted to state explicitly that I love the atmosphere in this game, and it filled me with nostalgia
You know you’re in trouble when you get a health pack 3 seconds into the game.
Am I missing something here? What just happened at the end? You decide to ignore the final boss and wander over to something lying on the floor dead and then it just ENDS?
Also, is that "rifle" firing shotgun ammo?
Did not get the ending at all. What was that big blue fish thing?
Shows you how much RE, SH and Clock Tower shaped the horror genre when many years down the line people are still taking from them to get satiate that survival horror craving
Given that the game was made (at the developer's admission) in 30 days for a gamejam (HPS1 Summer of Shivers), with the developer being a mostly solo dev as far as I can tell, I'd say he did a damn fine job given the circumstances. A few more months of work and polish could result in something greater.
"FOR THE LAST TIME MR. KRABS, I DID NOT STEAL THE KRABBY PATTY FORMULA!"
The game certainly has the original Resident Evil and Silent Hill feel, but I think it lacks in storyline. I like the character's jacket though.
2:02 Alone in the dark : new nightmare reference.
Me at the start: are you kidding me? this doesn't seem like Silent Hill
Me at 3:06: oh yeah it makes sense
The title sounds more inspired in H.P. Lovecraft's Shadow Over Innsmouth
For you anime fans out there. The lobster boss made me think of the lobster monster from One punch man lol.
Can't ever get enough of these spooky ps1 styled horror games. Loving this content.
Finally, Crablante put on some dang pants!
Crab People?! Best game.
H. P. Lovecraft "The Shadow over Innsmouth". Humid atmosphere, cold sea shades, Deep ones, everything is fabulous.
We need more games like this and less asset flip walking sims

Daring today, aren't we?
Very Capcom-like door opening and stair climbing animations. 👍
Only wish that the standard enemies that rush you would at least stagger or flinch when shot.
This dude has made some fantastic games. I loved oceanwork and now this
hey, thanks! :)
he IS Oceanwork
6:12 are the monsters saying "baby boy?"
The way he hoppin' up them stairs
15:00 That moment when Silent Hill turns into Final Fantasy/Castlevania.
4:02 larry the lobster? 😂
I love these old styled games
That creature at the start was like an Alone in the Dark style zombie and the wolf like things reminded me of the Werewolves in Nightmare Creatures - the way they suddenly jump out.
22:30 After his defeat by Saitama, Crablante was banished to the PS1 dimension
I love these ps1 graphics but wish they made more detailed environments. I mean look at RE1 and 2 on PS1 and they look so damn good.
Happy 16th Birthday To Me Alpha Beta Gamer !
Happy birthday! Have a great one! :)
Definitely feel the resident evil vibe. Love the bit crushed sound effects and fixed camera angles
Like the other user said, the over exaggeration of the simple water texture is kinda meh, I know water can look better than that on the ps1. Same with the silly giant water snake boss, kinda bland.
15:06 the Mk6 descends from the Moon
I can sea the horror
Damn, that shore is a bad pun! ;)
@@AlphaBetaGamer ikr, I fish I could do better
POV: eres un foráneo visitando Veracruz
Man this game could become something incredible, sad it's only 20 minutes long...
I love these PS1 styled games
This is the the least likely place I'd ever expect to find a Flat Eric fan in. Especially in 2021.
@@EvilLordCanas I’m happy knowing that someone knows who Flat Eric is 😁
Really great game; love seeing that retro style reminiscent of yesteryears & the way it used to be/look. 👍🏻😊
Love this. Great sound and atmosphere
Kos? Is that you?
Or some say Kosm
The style of the game fives me nostalgia somehow
'Too Many Crates' PS1 version
It brings me pleasure to c the old fashion designer gamers. Ps1 style at that 😁😁😁
I like the clearly Souls-inspired boss names and health bars,
Alpha Beta Gamer : "Shadow Over Normoth"
RUclips : "Resident Evil"
So nostalgic, i loved this game.
I think the only thing that gives away this isn't actually a PS1 game is the fact it's running at 60.
Hopefully, they will make a sequel. :)))
Hot damn, they actually brought back tank controls? I'm all for nostalgia, but tank controls are one of the few things I don't miss. Love the camera angles though. I think it's part of the artwork to be able to frame areas in such a way that is both atmospheric while still giving the player the view that's necessary to navigate the area.
What’s wrong with tank controls? I ask because people seem to have different ideas on what tank controls actually are. I’ve heard that they’re the only usable controls in fixed-camera third-person perspectives.
@@georgeofhamilton Oh, I just personally can't get used to them. From my understanding, tank controls are where left and right turn your character and forward and backward actually move your character, necessitating turning first before moving when changing your trajectory.
I much prefer just using the analog stick for smoother and more rapid movements. In 3rd person fixed-camera games, the issue of perspectives changing the orientation of how you're supposed to push your analog stick can be remedied by just having the game remember the last movement even when the camera changes. I can't remember off the top of my head which game does that, but I believe it's been done before.
If you don't know how to get the good ending, let me explain to you because you got the bad ending.
1. Equip your axe.
2. Hit the energy ball with the axe to reflect it back at him. (He'll start to reflect it back at you though so reflect it as much as possible until it hits the boss)
3. Once you've successfully stunned him with the energy ball, grab out any gun and start shooting him.
4. Repeat the same method.
NOTE: I only watched a walkthrough. please do not mistaken this as if I've played the game before.
Nostalgia games are entertaining us more than your typical let's break the world with graphics graphics when all we want is mechanics this shit is fire asf man 😌😌😌🥰🥰🥰🥰☺️☺️☺️
Because of its name, it reminded me "Call of Cthulhu: dark corners of the earth"
......Did they randomly throw in Kos at the end?
Seems more inspired by Vampire Rain with all that box-breaking.
Dark souls + re = this game
I felt that you did much better than a 'C'.
Smell like a lovecraft story's, ah? Smell good
this is like a clusterfuck of classic and modern games. i see, of course, silent hill and resident evil style gameplay. i also see bits of house of the dead bosses. in terms of modern games there's the dark souls boss healthbar and its got like a bloodborne thing going on with the orphan of kos-esque thing at the end.
Remind me of Afraid of the Dark or something, tbh.
Shadow over Innsmouth reference hehehe yaaaasss
1:57 *Protagonist hears gunshot in the next room*
ABG: *runs towards the source to get shot next*
2:12 Ah yes, the famed ancient martial art of "stand kiss-close to your zombie opponent and hit his shoulders with your elbows to kill him, missing him with your axe entirely"
3:15 the character walks like in that meme where a guy skips three steps on stairs
The fact that you can't take three steps without stumbling into guns and axes make the people whose skeletons you see strewn about in those games look very stupid.
13:40 ah yes, the fatal consequences of running after a human victim and being distracted by some clearly delicious garbage. Even the protag couldn't resist trying to open it with an axe...
15:50 As Gregor awoke one day from restless dreams he found himself turned into a giant nuisance
Wait, you get rewarded by chickening out of a final boss fight? O.o
13:53 Weird Easter egg.
Wait, so the loathsome *rifle* uses *shotgun* shells? How does that work?!
I was, "Wait... What...?" when I saw that as well.
@@Wildeye13 Is the name "Wildeye" a reference to "Wildey?" As in the big-B0re pistol personally owned and used by Charles Bronson in Deth Wish 3.
@@judsongaiden9878 No, it's the name of my favorite Wolf clan hero in Battle Realms. Though I'm also aware of the Wildey.
this one was actually decent for once
This Is Also Based On A Lovecraft Story, The Shadow Over Innsmouth Hence The Fish Folk
Wtf crab with jeans??:):)
3:52 CRAAAB PEOPLE!
Really good sound design with this one 👌
Great!!!
The final boss isn't hurt by bullets.
Some items were pointless to hold onto.. I don't know why I'd hold onto a kid's shoe
Does any of these games ever get released? Heaven't read any.
Very nice!!
13:54 you just found a secret!
Looks like Jon wick
The title of this video looks promising.
oh yeah, mr krabs
Wish I could play this on the original hardware.
Thumbnail looks like The End of Evangelion
What was that at the end, a manta?
What a fishy situation!
4:17 Dude…
how do you play these games without being scared bro?
smashing crates simulator
22:14 Why does the same boss appear multiple times?
It's probably more inspired by h p Lovecraft ",shadow over insmoth"
Whats the story?
A giant crab?!... I'm out.
It's more like zombie revenge & silent hill
Looks interesting.
hm alone in the dark inspired?
It looks really good but it's sad to realize that Silent Hill is dead and Resident Evil will not have horror theme anymore to appeal to everyone and some people are sensitive and cannot deal with this kind of genre.
this game needs work and scarier monsters, that crab was not it.
