Thanks! Smile and i kinda liked that that part was missing in the video, it keeps the tension alive for the player who sees the video before playing, since the player doesn't necessarily need to do anything in that part to progress. it's all about tension and suspense.

as for the spider, that's more from some dreams i remember having. I probably could have fit it into the story better (maybe in a sequel if i get around to it). and the blood, well,
Spoiler below!
suicide is a major theme in this Custom Story and it's one of the main interpretations I wanted to suggest. Like in the ending, did he jump? Or did he fall? Did he kill himself? etc.

I made a let's play of me playing through your custom story blind. The scariest part was in hallways.




















I liked the custom story, but the ending was quite lame and it was more freaky than scary (for an expection the hallway map).

I always appreciate it if there has been some editing to the monsters.
The monster with the custom sounds was very very creepy... that gave me a good bunch of goosebumps



RE: To Give Is To Force - badfollower - 08-15-2011

Short but pretty amazing, all the tracks and sound effects were spot on!

Big Grin Thank you! I'm glad that the extra time and effort I put into learning the model editor and making sound effects payed off.

Thanks! Making this Custom Story really showed me how important sound was to video games. I mean, I always knew it was important, but when I see my friends testing the game and a single sound effect makes them jump, well that's like heaven for me.

RE: To Give Is To Force - Cryaotic - 08-15-2011

I actually quite enjoyed this custom story!

Spoiler below!
I found it to be very unique and I thought the pretense was something that has never been done before. The use of custom sounds as has been stated was a definite welcome, as people seem to always under appreciate new audio-centered goodies that catch them off-guard.

The monster spawning definitely surprised me at points and I do believe a mild heart-attack was had - the ending was a tad confusing but I found it to be a fair one.

All in all I hope you continue making custom stories! I look forward to see what else you can do. :]

RE: To Give Is To Force - NyteMyre - 08-15-2011

I can agree with Cry about the ending...
....actually the whole story....

Although it's not very uncommon for me to not get the story of games, especially when it's kept vague on purpose or have open endings where you can imagine your own ending.


btw:

The room with the long spiral staircase and the hanging chandeliers was jawbreakingly beautiful to see



-edit-
btw, no I rewatched Cry's playtrough.... where do you use the key for btw?
