[@KuroTheCanadianBacon]

It's super interesting how it takes a lot of elements from resident evil but makes it its own. One of the main things I like is how when you get attacked you have multiple chances to get up and either run or fight it's not an immediate game over (with the stereotypical jump scare added to it). It makes it feel like it wants to scare you with the atmosphere and not just using cheap tricks.

[@Golemie]

This game definitely follows the stereotypical "cute thing but horror" trope that's been rampant in the indie industry lately, but there's some genuine skill in how everything is presented/designed. Identifying early on that there's something lurking in the pipes for example makes the player super nervous around each one, in which the developer perfectly places a bunch of open pipes in spots you have to walk past or grab an item near. On top of that, the concept of having to tie up the puppets is basically a more active version of the Crimson Heads from Resident Evil Remake, which is brilliant. It creates a constant anxiety and stress in knowing that, if you don't tie up an enemy, you'll have to deal with them should you come back through an area. And with lots of backtracking due to puzzles, that's a constant risk the player has to balance considering the duct tape is a limited resource. On top of the actually really strong sound design, the manic voices of the puppets, proper resource management that encourages the player to explore, and proper shooting gameplay that puts you face to face with the enemies, this could be a fantastic game if it's finished. Honestly though, it's just refreshing to have an indie horror game that isn't just walking around/hiding until a big jumpscare happens. I understand it's a popular form of gameplay in the horror genre these days, but it's nice to have a game where you actually have to fight back and manage resources to survive. It's sad that such a basic concept is pretty rare.

[@Zeus-zv7dr]

Yeah, this is what poppy playtime should have been, poppy playtime has easy ass puzzles and just child friendly stuff and isnt that scary while this game is kinda child friendly because its a puppet show but hides the horror clevery in both a funny and scary way that i love, hope this game becomes someting more than poppy.

[@TheTankyCrowbar]

I do think it should lean a bit more into the horror side. I don't think the game could really hold someone's attention for much longer than the demo without something to make the puppets and objectives a bit more engaging.

You probably won't see this Mark, but THANK YOU for adding humor to the world! When I have rough days, you're the KZbinr I watch to help me remember to just have fun and let loose in the face of stressful situations. Maybe it's a silly parallel to dealing with life situations, but it's definitely helped me :) Thanks!

The fact they got Arlo to voice Ricky was a complete delight when I first heard it.

[@anonymite1680]

Omgosh I was wondering why his voice sounded so familiar!

[@WHERE_IS_EURYDICE]

Pardon my ignorance, but who is Arlo?

[@Yipper64]

31:50 I just realized, the act of a player finding something insignificant to interact with, as it takes away control of the camera, makes the player think they are completely safe... A perfect time for a jump scare. If I was motivated to make a horror game, id use this.

[@notinterested7790]

He jumpscared himself with an "E" so the Devs wouldn't have to. lol

[@joeblogg2957]

something like the choir boy jumpscare in bioshock infinite (except in that case the lever was a compulsory "interact" )

[@bdaarmy9736]

I'm not sure if it makes the player feel completely safe cause I was expecting something to jump on his back during that. Especially because of how it was zoomed in and I couldn't see even from the corner of my eyes, gave me slight anxiety.

[@callak_9974]

There's games that did that, so not something new.

[@Spider168Theyoutuber]

Hey Mark, I just wanted to clarify what the devs meant by taking another look in the basement. In camera mode you can no clip through walls which you have shown, but you didn't notice is that some of the areas if you go outside of the map, you'll find giant versions of the puppets that hover over the rooms. Hope this helped a little, thank you :)

[@camim7467]

thank you for being the comment I was looking for

[@PardonMe_ImDrunk]

lol, 3,955 Comments as of now, and this is the only one addressing the "take another look in the basement". I thought I was gonna have to go on without knowing what it was about. Thank you.

[@nothingboie7329]

besides the giant models of puppets, I've also found a secret mouse room with another cheat tape in it, and there's other secrets too, like hidden doors which do nothing, a giant door with a picture of someone on it, which has a key behind the giant door, that does nothing, also where the giant door with a key behind it is, there's something way in the distance behind it, but I tried travelling to it for like- 15 minutes or so, and it didn't seem to get closer, so if you have camera mode, and you know how to modify the game to let yourself go extremely fast, then go to that giant door, look behind it, you'll see what looks like about 5 pixels, fly towards those pixels, and if you get there let us know what you find.

This game is giving me some heavy Bioshock vibes. Especially when the dude was cemented holding the bolt cutters. Also the enemies talk nonsense like splicers.

[@samleewayneyt]

yes!!

[@kamomile_tea]

Same, the health station, the neon lights and subterranean setting? It's like they mashed RE mechanics, Bioshock aesthetic, and the popular kid theme indie genre [Poppy Playtime and Bendy] together, and executed it surprisingly well.

[@perihangamze238]

I was thinking the same thing. It's kinda a mixture of RE and Bioshock but it has its own style and I love it!

At first I was like “context??!?” But then I realized it’s a teaser and holy hell I gotta say what a good way to tease the game. Really gets you invested, shows you what it’s all about upfront, and makes you want to play from the start to see how it got to this point. Personally really excited for the final release
