Fleshgait is a modern take on the classic survival horror formula. Explore the Sullivan Estate with dynamic gameplay elements such as shifting pathlines, randomized enemy encounters, and item placements.
About Fleshgait:
Play the game with fixed camera angles/panning cameras or at any time switch to a modern over-the-shoulder 3rd person perspective. Puzzle and item placement dynamically shift, so each playthrough is slightly different. The game's event system randomly places jump scares based on the player's progression.
The game has been built with as little menu interaction as possible. All inventory items are stored directly on the player's item belt, or held in the player character's hand. There are no in-game menu interactions (except for the map menu for player convenience). All discoverable notes are held directly in the player character's hand. While exploring environments and inspecting items, the player character will vocalize a description.
Experience many evolving enemy varieties:
The "Stigmatized" are zombie-like enemies. Damaging "Stigmatized" with conventional weaponry can put them in a temporary dormant state, but eventually, they will reactive and mutate depending on the damage dealt to them.
The hive of "Fractal" enemies are a constantly evolving chain of worm-like organisms. If not dealt with properly, these enemies can spread, transform, and multiply.
The mysterious entity some have referred to in folklore as the "Fleshgait". This unpredictable enemy cannot be killed and contains many surprises for players.
Evolving pathlines:
Depending on the player's story pathline many different side characters can be encountered. These character interactions can completely alter the potential endings of the game.
The fate of NPC encounters is decided by the player's decisions and actions.

✦ AI summary
Fleshgait draws inspiration from classic survival horror games like Resident Evil and Silent Hill, featuring a unique inventory system, varied monsters, and a large mansion to explore that players appreciate. However, the game is significantly hampered by tank controls that feel dated and clunky, frequent bugs that cause characters to freeze or phase through walls, awkward camera angles, and AI-generated voice acting that breaks immersion, leaving most players feeling the game needs substantial polish before it's truly playable.
Fleshgait is clearly inspired by survival games of old. The game is overall marred by the horrid tank controls. The controls got me killed more than the enemies did. The game also suffers from weird graphical glitches in spots. Fleshgait also could use actual voice acting..not text to speech (takes me out of it). I feel this game has some promise. Just needs a bit more time in the proverbial oven. https://youtu.be/ozq082ZM0_427 found this helpful
The game is made in the style of good old Resident Evil and Silent Hill, so I could not pass by this game. The game has a very cool inventory system, I have not seen anything like it anywhere, and I really liked it, as well as a large number of different monsters, a huge number of different weapons, a large mansion to explore, interesting puzzles and several bosses. But the game also has no less number of bugs, from passing through walls to freezing the character due to interaction with some objects (DO NOT GO TO THE COMPUTER :) ). The character does not move, no matter what buttons you press, but the whole game does not freeze, the flashlight can be turned on / off. Also, sometimes this happens when changing weapons and trying to aim and shoot, the character stands helplessly while monsters beat him. But the advantages include the fact that there is an automatic save when entering almost every room, so loading the game save is not a problem. I understood that there should have been 2 scenarios A and B, but now only scenario A is available. When I finished the game, it turned out that scenario B was in development. But scenario A itself is quite long and self-contained![hr][/hr]At …5 found this helpful
This game is absolutely hilarious and completely broken. Borderline unplayable and animations overlap causing you to freeze in place and reload the game. Camera angles and controls and absolutely busted. Voice acting is helpfully provided by AI computers making each cutscene a work of art.

the only reason I haven't refunded this is because I forgot about it for 2 weeks. The game is incredibly unpolished. The text to speech dialogue, the clunky movement mechanics, the absolutely goofy looking monster, the awkward camera angles. The game needs so much more work. It had potential, but fell far, far too short of the mark in every way. I understand it's only a 2 man crew, but you guys can do so much more than this.1 found this helpful
