So unfortunately as much as I want to continue this series, the game keeps crashing every time I would return to the mansion from the garden outside after collecting the ruby. Idk why this keeps happening, and I've tried multiple possible solutions, but to no avail, this issue has inevitably prevented me from progressing further, as such I have to end my experience for now. I may continue this game when more updates/patches are added or when the full game comes out. Once again I thank you for recommending this game to me, it was an honor to try to help promote your game and assist with critiques and recommendations. Keep me posted if you wish and have a good day.
Part 3 has now been uploaded! Though I have not much to say that I haven't already brought up in in the previous videos, say for some "glitches" and layering. One such was a delay in my death just as I got hit running into a room. My game did crash towards the end but I'm uncertain if that was the game or my computer.
I apologise for the delay, the heatwave kinda got to me, but here is a wee vid of Spirits of Hell. I did a limited playthrough so people will get to see what comes next by playing for themselves.
Part 2 is out now! And as a disclaimer, I do come off a bit sour in this one, irritations of life kinda fused into my gaming experience. Along with the fact that I had to record this TWICE, as my recording was interrupted my a power outage. Regardless of such now that I have played through a bit more (still not done yet btw) I have some new critiques to make.
Firstly, the pros:
Cons:
I only have one can but its a big one in my opinion.
Despite this I'm really enjoying the demo, and you've done great work so far. Expect part 3 soon!
I'm really liking it so far but I do have some things to say and the gameplay supports my frustrations. Let's start with the positives, I think this game has a solid story and I really like the art style of this game, good music and this game did get me with some view scares. Now for my negative's and only negative is the optimization for this game, it might be just me so I wont really be to harsh about it but at the same time, it's BAD, the whole playthrough I'm just running this game on 10-19 frames, and get as low as 4 FRAMES! Other than that I think the game is good but that is my issue with the game. I am glad that you recommended me to play it but I do have to be honest about it, It's good but need improvements. That's
all, I'll be watching from a distance when a new update drops...Thanks for playing!
I apologise for the speed of the game. Apparently it is not suitable for any computer. There are a lot of technical aspects that can cause it to slow down a lot. In theory this can all be fixed, but it will take a lot of time.
I'll try to get it sorted out by the full release.
But overall, I'm having a great experience so far. You really have something promising.
Cool demo!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
You can really tell a lot of love was put into this work- though I was only able to play part of the demo, this game has a surplus of story, art, and unique mechanics that lend to a great survival horror role playing puzzle game. If you enjoy horror games with an in depth story, this is the game for you.
I play part of your demo (as well as a couple other games) in the video below. I should have read the controls before playing but I'll be sure to play the full game!
Thanks! Glad you liked it, even with that little part of the demo you completed c:
