Jackpot I am sure it is not a glitch. When it happened to me I heared some strange sound. And when something hit those big doors from the other side I heard that sound again.

I thought it was great. You guys have suceeded at creating a great atmosphere. The puzzles are good, the lack of weapons makes it even scarier. After I played it through I spent a good few minutes throwing things at the guy but he never died Sad

Can't wait to play the full game.

Also i see you've put 1680 x 1050 in the options, thanks Smile

Something is obviously wrong; no one has said 'no' yet. Normally there's at least one in every 10 who goes "lol im guna say no 2 piss tem off1!"

Everyone likes it, obviously.

yep, what's not to like?

I really wish they'd do another one after this though. hopefully their next game will be something .. similar, like also a horror/adventure thing. or at least something that brings the physics/interactivity to 'the next level'

Just read the last page: on that ventilation thing - how can you honestly thing it's a glitch?
Pretty nothing in a FPS game code can cause random jumpings. Seriously, the head shakes and there is a neat sound effect.
It's just Clarence.

I don't get this. I played the demo, but I didn't see some of the things that you guys are mentioning.

Spoiler below!
One thing is Grey. I saw someone with a flashlight, but no one talked to me. I wasn't able to see him.
The only computer I saw when at the extreme end. Did you guys do something I didn't?

Grey is the zombie. When you hear someone coming its him, with a flashlight, looking for you. He only speaks when he's close to you.

I've played through the demo and, like when I played Overture, I'm very impressed and so I'm very excited about playing the full game. I liked how this demo gave one a good idea of what the game-play is like, even including interaction with enemies. The voices and the flash-lights add a nice "human" feel--not so much like a computer but a real opponent. It's scares me quite a bit, especially with the amount of variety in their actions. The graphics are superb, handling objects is deridingly better.

I hope you will continue to use this games engine. I think it's perfect. Great work.
