- Wow, I can't believe how cool this game is. Great idea tying a home recording on an old camcorder into the theme. I could see it having a lot of replay value as the player attempts to make all the shots look as professional as possible
- What an overall cute, charming, and wonderful experience, and a unique idea to boot! The smile never left my face the entire time I played this. Just like Crusty Proto, I wish this concept could be explored upon and expanded in a full game, though it is a full game in its own right much like Crusty Proto is and would likely be difficult to explore. And much like Crusty Proto, this was an absolute treat to play. You are very talented. It's abundantly clear that you are a "master of vibes" so to speak, whether it's horror games, the PSX aesthetic, or that chill, fun feeling of hanging out with friends and goofing off with a camcorder. I do hope you end up creating more PSX inspired and comedic games in the future, whether as game jam projects or full releases. You have an incredible level of talent and wonderful ideas! Thanks for joining ShroomJam 2025!
How does your submission fit the jam's theme?
Its 90's, you got camcorder and you are trying to film slasher movie with your friends, because it was big hit at the time.

I started this project with this exact idea in mind, but was met with harsh reality, that WebGL builds cannot record video, or audio without ridiculous hacks (plugins that record video, execute scripts in browser to record html element of game view with browser api). So whole feature was dumbed down. Its also the reason that audio is not positional, since i cannot record it and playback at exact same location.
And yes, all of the animations are from mixamo, some used as-is, some was blended in some way, but in total, there are 60 animations from there.

Interesting, you're first that reports this issue.
Game indeed uses a few tricks to record gameplay from secondary camera, as you cannot normally record video in unity, especially in web build. But it was balanced to a reasonable bandwidth (~1.5 mb for 1 second of recording). 5gb/sec sounds ridiculous and indeed looks like something goes wrong.
Does issue persists in desktop build, or it is web only?
Guys, post below if you also have this issue, looks like something i should look at, if it is reproducible en masse.

Windows build successfully uploaded.
I hope it is no big deal, that it was uploaded after deadline? Of course content-wise it is identical to web build.
