I Usually Write Reviews, but this one Wil be a bit different. Neglect is a short story demo where you play as Ethan that has crashed his car and is now in a weird forest, with weird stuff happening. I played the game and really like the Aesthetic(Reminds me of Mouthwashing), Atmosphere and Dedication. The Sound and Music in the game are alright, but nothing spectacular. I would guess it will still be improved upon with a larger dedicated soundtrack and sounds. The Gameplay is a Mix of Walking Simulator and A little bit Survival Horror. I think it has potential and would like to see some deeper mechanics at play. Now we come to Bugs sadly.
In the First Minutes till the white school door there where none, which is great! but after that all hell was let loose. Here where my bugs.
1.i wanted to look for controls on how to use my key and couldnt close the window anymore lol
2. i Tried to Equip Axe and Flashlight but the images of them kept getting Smaller ? and i couldnt move them anymore after that.
3.Once i managed to equip axe and flashlight they where very weird looking and didnt work lol
I Think your game has Great Potential and it reminded me a bit of concluse(Did you take inspiration from this ?) with the way you made the cutscenes and overall game feel in the forest. I Hope that you will keep going and Make this Truly something special because i feel like it could be.And i loved the Extras you added for the future. I give you a 5\10 for now even with the game destroying bugs.Goodbye !
We are currently making a full Revamp of the game and plan to release it as a full game!
This build was made for our school final project, so it was a little rushed, we had little time and we were still studying and stuff.
I know that this build is pretty bad lol, but it's just an idea for what's to come (Which tbh would be lying cuz the current project is a way way bigger upgrade).
Non the less thank you for the review, and thank you for giving us hope to continue!
I'll also try Concluse now, never heard of it, seems good.
