Solid survival horror title!

An incredible achievement for a single developer. If you like old school survival horror with fixed camera angles and an immersive atmosphere, this game is for you. It wears its influences on its sleeve, with Silent Hill references left and right. Sound design and music stand out. I like the sci-fi elements and wished they leaned a bit more into it. There's replayability with multiple endings and such. Decent enemy variety, a few good jump scares backed by a pervasive sense of dread. It's not the best or most unique game ever, but it's solid if you like the genre. The surreal aspects were the best parts. Combat is sufficient, with the typical jank of survival horror. Inventory management was balanced well. Acting was good (although sound quality of the voice recording did vary). Story was intruging. Puzzles were fine, mostly just finding key items. The only real complaint I have about the experience is that the right stick only allows you to "nudge" the camera. I understand that for fixed camera segments, but for the segments where the camera is behind your character, I frequently found myself wanting more control other than the button to snap the camera behind the character's back. Other than that, this game was well worth the price of admission, and I look forward to seeing more from this developer. Recommend for survival horror fanatics like myself!
