Just plain out boring. Should at LEAST have a running option.
Reviews for "Slender Survival"

We'll add that ASAP, thanks for your feedback!
Game mechanic: Not a very fun game, just pressing <= or =>. Game would be a lot better if you add in upgradable a weapons like find a stick, then knife, then bat, pistol that don't do anything or maybe just stun him .005 seconds. Maybe even add jump button for the heck of it and even a sprint button. No interactive environment is not good. Don't have Slender come just from left or right, have him come from the background/environment or even coming towards you like a sprite layer in the front. Add in death scene.
Concept: Tbh Slender never was, never has been, and never will be scary. Most of the recent promotion of him comes from hype and youtube partners riding the gravy train. Replace Slender with Pennywise or Sadoko or some horror element that you personally have a fear of and i'd bump the rating 1 more star, 5 stars if you add in more game mechanics. But as it is now, it just seems like a 16 bit platform tag game.

Hmm, thanks for you review sequio, I got your point, but you know, at least for some people, Slenderman is in fact scary, so...but yeah we'll think about adding some more stuff to the environment!
Theres a glitch where slenderman never comes.
Well This wasn't that great of a game as there was no variety in it, you just walk back and forth until you die, if you could enter the houses it could be better, also the foreground seems to pop into view a bit, not sure why, i'm just walking and BAM, a tree suddenly appears in the foreground. i liked the graphics though, but the animations was kind off seeing his hand "release" the flashlight and "re-grab" it.
I was reading one of the comments and dangerdino said this game has nothing to do with the real lore. That maybe so but there really isn't a lore for the slenderman. I looked it up by lore, myth, creatures, and all that stuff and only found "games and photos" people made of him. I think he is just an idea someone made (before he was called slenderman) and other people just ripped off his idea, like with this game.
The game itself is 2D which isn't as great as the famous 3D version. There is only two ways to go but it is always best to keep going forwards, only going back if he is in front of you. The game isn't scary and there are too many notes which makes this a bit boring. Seeing the same background to collect 40 notes is a bit much. If you are a fan of slenderman, this game may not be for you.
Brunodev responds:
Yeah, as you said, if you don't like Slenderman, this game may not be for you. Thanks for the review
