good game
I have a little bit of arachnophobia and I was so scared I struggled to open the game but, VERY GOOD demo
Thanks! glad you enjoyed :)
Stay tuned for the full game that'll be pretty much that!
Super fun demo! Can't wait for the full thing!
Thanks for playing and thanks for the video!
WTF is wrong with this game's resolution settings? It keeps changing randomly like a schizo and always starts off at the lowest possible resolution setting making everything appear blurry.
Is there ANY way to exit the game besides alt+f4?
No you can't exit besides alt+F4.. Sorry for the trouble, It's a very early prototype, many many things missing😅
And I'm not sure about the game resolution, it shouldn't change once the game starts. i'll look into it, anyway I'll release a polished demo in a few weeks that'll be much better!
Thank you for replying, sorry if I sounded moody, it was a bad day for me. I really appreciate the help!

Thanks! and thanks for the article :)
Just like PTE said, I neeeed a bigger demo! god this looks fantastic, keep up god's work
Thanks! It's in the works 💪
The Demo is way too short to get a proper impression of this game.
Yes! It's very early. I'll release a longer demo with more features soon, on Steam and probably here as well :)
Good game really enjoyed it definitely looking forward to play more of your games
Thanks! :)
As someone who doesn’t have arachnophobia, this game was fascinating to experience.
Game is good, about 15 minutes of play
This creeped me out waaay more than I was ready to admit 😅 very good atmosphere build-up and general creepiness.
Spiders creep me out so yeah… this was a great idea!

This spider was my valentine <3! Good game, keep it up
Hello from Poland! I really enjoy the game and want more :D
Good game, that was super entertaining! :)
沒有特別恐怖，但看到一群蟲子還是會不由自主的噁到發抖
感覺給怕蟲的人玩會很有趣 ，
如果你不敢玩，一定要給你朋友試試 ψ(｀∇´)ψ
ugh spiders are so scary lol.
it wasnt too bad if im gonna be honest. keep it up.
so nice and creepy survival game!
second game in… I hate spiders!
