I made some screenshots :D

I love everything about this game. The design of the Hatchlings reminds me of the game GoHome, and really adds a psychedelic feel to the game. I couldn't even get annoyed when I got caught as seeing their beautiful screaming faces was just far too amusing. 

Gameplay was fun; all the items were easy enough to locate and I was really grateful that the progress bars maintained the completion level, so you could easily run away before you finished a task and then go back to it.

game dont even make sense but its funny

there should be chapters to the game so we can actually understand whats going on with the story

Such a fun yet scary experience.. I liked it! These games should get more recognition!

The game was funny more than anything, not really so scary and didn't understand the plot. The AI has room for improvement also as the objective camping wasn't the best. Perhaps the story could be improved with more dialogue? 

Overall the funniness of it made this game fun to play with my viewers on a live stream. We had a lot of laughs, cheesy jumpscares and memes. 

I think there's a lot of potential for this developers future games to be improved upon, as there is clearly talent there, the game just lacked a little something and was funny more than anything. I look forward to playing your other games in the future. If you're interested I have attached an edited video from my live stream. The original full 2.5 hour video is on Twitch. ♥

Huge disappointment with the game, bought it to try it out on my channel, was hoping it would be fun and ended up quiting the game because of the way the developer thought about the saving mechanics

You play hide and seek with the computer that comes to you instantly once you try to complete the task given, and after working hard to complete it, the game doesn't automatically save, you end up getting caught and you have to start it all over again

I understand the computer knows exactly where you are and hunts you down but I would've imagined that once you complete a task it would be logically to have an auto save so in case you die, you continue where you left off, instead you go 5-10 minutes behind and have to repeat it all over again. not fun at all

THIS GAME BROKE ME LOL! On a serious note this game just needs some tweaks and it would be genuinely TERRIFYING! The game is really hard, which I enjoy, but I feel it was a little too hard. For example, when she camps the objective and you have to run around for 5 minutes and slowly do the task little by little. That was really tedious. The game overall was scary and could be scarier with minor fixes! Keep up the great work!

It was a nice edited video. Thank you for playing this game.

So I've played a lot of horror games, but NOTHING freaked me out as much as this game did. I really don't know what it was, but I was GENUINELY shook by this game. Check out my playthrough here!

I recommend the UI progress bar to display the full width (end of the meter showing the location of 100%) alongside with how much progress is being made when performing actions involving standing still, it is hard to tell where the end of the meter is to be at that would be marked “complete”:
no: ████
yes: ████░░░░░

Thank you for your feedback. You're right, this is much better.

You welcome. Most games show 2 parts of the bar, how much and maximum.

Other games that don't show this are usually margin-centered to whatever it is placed within when 100%, assuming it fills from one end to the other and not from the center expanding both ways (edit: fixed image):

When progress bars lack showing its maximum and is centered within whatever it is on, its maximum is usually implied based on the edges around it.

Thank you for your help. So it is difficult to see the maximum value if the margin is too wide.

Agreed, when such UI are represented like this, the user can only approximate or guess where that maximum is at, especially if there are no reference to other on-screen UI to compare to.

Also, besides a continuous bar, when it comes to repeated icons like this (4/5):
●●●●
the empty are shown as outlines, or as silhouettes in a similar way (4 filled + 1 empty = 5 total icons):
●●●●○
or:
●●●●◌


If it were numbers:

  • Every value displayed as digits are always distinct (even by a little), because it is based on symbols. It is also easy to remember the maximum if the max isn't displayed when the current value X is equal to max.
  • Percentage is pretty obvious of where is the maximum is.

Thank you for teaching me. You know a lot. I was missing the maximum value.
