Out of Nowhere

Optimization in this game is so atrocious that it is borderline unplayable with low settings with FSR on. Absolutely unacceptable to charge money for a game that runs this poorly. And look, I play A LOT of janky indie games that have poor optimization. I know to expect most of them aren't going to be a walk in the park. This one however takes the cake as one of the worst running games I've ever played. Man, I really wanted to like this game. I think it's hella unique. Also, not unique at the same time, but come on, you play as a dog! That's cool as hell!! Unfortunately this game did not live up to my, albeit low expectations. Even if the game ran well, I'm still not sure how playable it would be. It's almost impossible to do anything because you just can't see. It's way too dark if you're not going to have an artificial light source like a flashlight. I understand not giving a dog a flashlight. It wouldn't make a ton of sense. But in that case, there needs to be other lighting. I turned the gamma up all the way in a maze and still couldn't see anything. Maybe there is a reason games like this aren't made every day. I also want to say that I feel really bad for leaving such a harsh…

It is a delightful yet spine-tingling gaming experience that combines smooth dog movement and controls with a dash of heart-pounding jump scares. This short and sweet game manages to captivate players with its canine protagonist, offering a unique twist to the horror genre.

A bit short. I wish it had a little more story detail. (maybe notes or some sort of lore, not sure how a dog would read that but you can go nuts and be creative like when you smell the scents some text appears like it was in its lil doggy thoughts?) If you are fine with a short and very simple game you can finish in an hour then go for it!

The environment need some light adjustments but overall super solid and had fun!!! https://youtu.be/UYH-8NWmG3k?si=mS11tucg98SKaJbO

they don't give you anything to smell hardly ever, instead you have to wander around and find structures or whatever. no lighting helps you with this except for the cave level. it's like they gave up on using signposting for a lot of the levels lol. otherwise, it's ok. the major hallmark of this game is that you are a dog, without that, this game is just a mediocre random asset adventure. if you're into that, cool this one aint bad, but it aint good either, but you are a dog.

I like this game so far. It's dark, tense and super creepy. You play as a German Shepherd who is trying to survive in a desolate world populated by some kind of ghouls. A very cool concept. The graphics are not terrible either. Easy to play overall and a great starter for horror noobs.
