Thank you so much for playing. It was so much fun watching your video :D I'm really glad you enjoyed the game, and thank you for the feedback. A lot of people have said the same about the keys in the mansion, so I have taken that on board. I guess looking around a big mansion isn't as fun as I thought it would be haha. I think you were playing an older version as the bug that lets you finish the game with only 5 keys has being fixed now. Yes, this was my first ever game and the next Immemorial Order game is in the works right now :D Thank you so much for your continued support. It is very much appreciated and means the world to me :D The next game there will be 12 keys to find.... Only joking :D Have a great day
The game is good but like the Demo I had a few issues with how dark the rooms were. I don't understand why sometimes id have a flashlight and other times I didn't . Maybe next game put in a brightness bar ? The first part was very similar to the demo and it was fun ( Love the funny dialog ) but the second part was very annoying . I am ok with having to find Keys but NOT in a HUGE MANSION with millions of locked doors and no guidance what so ever . This game took me about 3 hours to beat and I edited out most of it because it was just useless roaming around . Overall though the game is good , graphics are pretty , environments and the story were unique . Its an awesome stepping stone into the world of making games and I look forward to watching you improve !
Thank you so much for playing the game, and thank you for the feedback. I tried to keep the game as realistic as I could, and I have to say I'm really sorry about how dark the game is on your video. It definitely wasn't designed that way. It's strange that on my computer and laptop, through testing that it doesn't look anywhere near as dark as that, so I will take a look at this issue and there will be an update probably later today or tomorrow. Thanks again and have a great day :)
Edit: Brightness slider now added to the pause menu & improved lighting in the darker scenes of the game.
Hey Wicksley,
Great game, until I had to find 6 keys. Again, I played this game during the daytime, and after a while my eyes began to burn, because I had to strain them to see something. As I said earlier, I can see the reflection of myself on a 40' screen, and that doesn't help either. There is no guidance as to where those keys might be found, so it's running around from room to room, and that, to me, became boring quite quickly, plus my eyes beginning to hurt, did it for me.
I didn't expect to solve puzzles [finding those keys] in a horror game, but that's, of course, entirely up to you. For the rest [up until that moment], the game ran well, the story's good, the actions are nice, the graphics are very cool and I can see you spent an enormous amount of time getting it all right. So, kudos to you, but I won't upload a game that I didn't finish. Sorry for that. And many thanks for making this game.
Hey Daniel,
Thank you for your feedback. Yes, playing a dark atmospheric horror game during the day while you can see the reflection of yourself on the screen definitely won't be of much help in finding anything. For the next update I will look at adding a brightness slider to the settings menu and, hopefully, this will help you find your way in the dark sections of the game.
I decided to add puzzles to the game to mix it up a bit and make it a bit more interesting for the player, kind of like a Resident Evil-style game. I don't want to give too much away, but every time you pick up a new key, something changes.
I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed the story and the game ran well. Yes, this game was in development for 15 months, working on it every day. Also, if you decide to play the game in the future, it will be saved on the last scene you were playing.
Thank you so much for playing, and hopefully you will have a much more enjoyable experience in a future update. Have a great day :)
Great game. I loved playing it. The jumpscares were perfect. It felt like there is a noisy ghost in my house.
Maybe the story will be continued in a second part. :-)
Thank you so much I really appreciate it and I'm really happy you enjoyed the game :) haha yes maybe the story will continue.
