Top-notch work.
This is a perfect example of how to use horror as a tool and not a sterotypical gore-fest. The graphics were definately up to par with the desired atomosphere, and the foley effects/soundtrack were right on the ball.
The violence/gore that was contained made it a suitably "adult" game, which is refreshing because I myself am sick and tired of "adult games" being defined as "HeNtAI KeEpY-UppY!!!111"
The action sequences could have used a bit more polishing up, they almost felt more like mini-games as opposed to actions to advance the plot. I know one of the rules to making a good story is to switch back and forth between verbose and simple descriptions/actions, but it detracted from the overall feeling of the game for me.
Excellent use of the "spooks" during the more tense moments of the game. I even expected some of them and they still made me jump back a little. People are a tad too keen on using too many of those in all the wrong places, but these were done with *class*.
I have to note at this point, however, that the Sodoku puzzle was almost needlessly cruel. I still solved it easily enough, but when you feel like you're on a timer, it's nerve-wracking for the wrong reasons.
Also as a last note, for such an orignal game, you should have *really* re-considered Vliev's(SP) appearence, I could tell that it was lifted from one of those deluxe demon/vampire costumes, and it made me lose touch with the horror of the moment... which was bad considering it was such a well-set scene.
All that said and done, I can't wait for the 3rd installment.
