About
This was my final assignment for my game design studio 3 class.
'Inheritance' is a short horror game set in a old house previously owned by your late grandparents.
My focus on the game was the art so thats why its not very long but i'm planning to remake the game in the future so keep updated for more information.

Overall:
That was a beautiful horror experience! π
The game looks really good. Nothing feels out of place. Player movement is fluid. The music was on point to set the tone for the atmosphere. That was a nice! π
Feedback (to go even further beyond!!!):
If I could add something to this game, I'd say "cursor help". When you first play the game, you see a hand icon whenever you point a door. As a player, it makes you believe that "an hand icon appears when pointing towards interactable objects"... but with this supposition, I went through all the rooms available at that point and I found nothing. π
I ended up going back to the starting room, I looked around a bit and then I tried to turn on the light even if there was no hand icon... and it worked. I was like "Wait. Really? π". After that, I was able to finish the game without any issue but I told you about this story because I wanted to show you this perspective.
To solve this, you should maybe either:
Last word:
Overall, I had a great time and I'm amazed by the work you were able to put up for a school project. Congrats and keep up the good work! I hope you'll make it far! π

Hey! I played your game on my stream! Watch it to see the live review! Here's the link for it: Nitro_Spacematterplay - Twitch π
I would also appreciate if you could give an opinion on our latest game. Game devs advice is precious because we know better what it takes to make something work. It's called "Backdoor Shifts"
A short and sweet little game, games like this is what shows that you don't need a long experience to make it work. (ha)
All in all, good job Adrian !
Here is my playthrough of the game if you'd like to GIVE IT A WATCH !
Great game! I like this game.
GREAT ATMOSPHERE AND CONCEPT! THANK YOU!

Nice game
Hello, I included your game in one of my videos and I did quite like it.
A fun little game. I'm a big fan of all the notes stuck around. I played it for my Bloodcurdling Barrage, in which I do daily videos for all of October.
It's a shame that it's too short, but in general I look forward to more new games from you :)
My walkthrough is in Russian. Starts at 12:56
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME THE GAME IS SUPER LAGGY IS THERE A WAY I COULD FIX IT
Actually it's a very good game. It will probably be more popular than before the third version! I can't wait to play the new version of the game!
Need the ability to adjust the controls, without thinking about mid ways through ( I assume ) .. I wanted to adjust mouse sensitivity and FOV but I hit escape and was ejected from the game... :( it didn't even prompt me to ask if I was sure, just tossed me out.. so I stopped at that point.
This is a good short game,looking forward to the remake.
Here's my gameplay of it,at 11:50.
For a school progect it was very good, i cant wait to play the update.
