This was so whimsical and different and fun! I was tickled silly by the cardboard cars driving around! Love this! My gameplay:
A Quiet Place style
I love my cardboard people!
Really enjoyed the style and presentation
Thank you legend!
Hey, I played the game for a bit and find it quite interesting!
I'd like to report a few bugs before I publish my gameplay video:
1) There is a weird bug where the mouse camera would randomly jump out of place (like a rubberband lag feeling); I fixed it by enabling VSync in the Nvidia settings, in my case 165Hz worked perfectly fine with no issues. Adding a VSync toggling option as a temporary fix would be great!
2) You cannot use the mouse to drag the sliders of either 'Mouse Sensitivity' / 'Volume' from the ingame pause menu; I can only control them if I click on one and use the Arrow Keys on the keyboard.
3) The game defaults the resolution to 1920x1080. I changed mine to 2560x1440 which looked like it worked. The problem is when you start the game the pause menu still shows 1920x1080; I changed it back to 2560x1440 but it didn't seem to have done anything. I assume it was already set to 1440p from beforehand but only the text ingame didn't reflect this change. (changing the resolution does actually work, it's only the text that doesn't show it from intro to the ingame pause)
I'll report more additional bugs if I encounter them. Thanks!
Thank you very, very much!
Great new horror game. W from me
Thank you very much!
such a great experience. Although, the horror element seems to be lacking. However, i still confused about the story. Especially, the masked dude part. HM: Great cast of voice actor! Everybody done their job flawlessly
Thank you for playing and giving your feedback, means a lot!
Thank you very much!
Cool game, great ideas and vibes.
Thanks!
Surreal dream wrapped into a dark mystery - I can't be more proud of being part of this amazing ensemble!
This was phenomenal! The game officially dethroned "Project Arktik" for me and became the favorite. The tone of the game is dark, but at the same time the theatre section felt a bit funny at times. I loved the story, the characters and the ambiguity of it. Hats off to you mate!
Best to you and keep grinding my dear friend!
Huge, huge thanks for playing and taking part in making of this game, it truly means a lot that one of my idols helps me out, and I'm so glad that you liked the final product, all the best to you!
Great Vuk Dobric and another awesome game!
Thank you very much!
Enourmous thanks legend! You were here from the start and I'll never forget that!
Amazing as always ! Always love playing your games.Very much like the style you went for here. Great Job ! As always keep up the good work, and thank you for sharing !! :)
Big thanks to you for playing another one of my games!
Excellent game! Svaka cast jos jednom!
Thanks, hvala puno!
WAIT THATS THE POLICE OF DETEKTIV?
I made the textures sooo I thought why not use them again :)
a quiet place origins?
Remebered what fine design cardboard people were
This was a trip! Well done sir! I would of had this up yesterday but my power supply went bye bye.. keep up the good work!
Sorry about that and thank you for playing my game!
What a solid little game this was! I loved the whole theme used for this game, it was quite unique indeed. And the overall story building was top notch, definitely throws you into the deep end almost immediately lmao. Definitely a treat for sure! Made a video on it.
Thanks Spooky!
Very good game
Thank you!
Hi Vuk, it's been a while since I tried your last game, but here I am again.
Honestly, I have no idea what game I played, but it doesn't matter. I loved this game; you clearly put a lot of effort into this new one, or at least I think so.
You generally make good games, and I love them all, but what I almost never fully understand is the story. In this one, I barely understood it; I only know that we killed a friend or acquaintance, and I have no idea if the final puzzle of piecing together the story is part of the overall narrative.
Anyway, it goes without saying that I love the games you make, but it never hurts to reiterate it. Have a great day, Vuk! Cheers!
It's more of a suicide story this one, huge thanks for playing my game, it really means a lot!
Thank you!
Thank you very very much!
Künstlerisch wirklich gut umgesetzt.Hab sogar Deine und Niven´s Stimme herausgehört ;) Mir gefällt die Mischung aus Animation und Papierschnitt wie in "A Quiet Place"sehr gut.Die Rätsel sind gut eingebunden und nach kurzer Überlegung auch lösbar.Bugs hab ich keine gefunden.Sehr gute Arbeit! Ich wünsche Dir viel Erfolg mit diesem grandiosen Spiel!
The artistic execution is truly impressive. I could even pick out your and Niven’s voices! I really love the blend of animation and paper-cut aesthetics, similar to A Quiet Place. The puzzles are well-integrated and solvable after a bit of thought. I didn't encounter any bugs, either. Excellent work! I wish you much success with this magnificent game!
Thank you so so much for this truly great review, it means the world to me!
i keep crashing when walking through the street in the town area. Is it just me?
Another person mentioned same bug, still trying to look for some fix or just to see what's causing the problem, any more info you can provide?
it happened at two different spots while walking through the town, it popped up an error code then crashed on me twice. Not sure if it was an Unreal or Unity error popup, but was definitely one of those two
it was very unusual because ive played through all of your games without ever dealing with a bug or crash.
Same thing that bothers me, played through once again and found nothing unusual, it's probably something very specific which I can't find right now, I'll stay in touch
appreciate the help, was really enjoying the game before the crashes as well. Will always be looking forward to what you release!
thank you! And sorry!
hey, what Operating system are you on?
good creepy
Thank you!
Mate, this is perfect as always.Just like the other games, good job.
Thank you, you absolute legend!
Can't wait to try it!
Hope you'll enjoy it!
very good
Thank you very much!
Another Banger!
Very glad that you liked it!
Lonesome Town has an interesting concept but I’m stuck in the city. After collecting the wood, the game crashes when I walk on the street. I’ve tried a few times, but it keeps happening.
When exactly?
The part in the city when i start walking after few seconds crash. The second time i tried i started going on the stairs and crashed. (Like i mention in the post before this is the part right after you finish collecting the wood for the fire).
I just got home and I'll try to see if there's any obvious reason why that would happen, I played the game hundred times before publishing and it never crashed, so sorry to hear that man, I'll try to see what's causing the issue
Just played through the whole thing once again and found no issues, I really have no idea why is it crashing? I'll keep in tuouch and look for a solution
