The Music Box (Voxel horror) by Glockenspiel

[raw]
made by Glockenspiel for LD29 (JAM)
A fps horror hexagon voxel game. Mystery lies ahead but all that is know is that you must find the music box. Please don't play in the web player, i can't disable the cursor and its really annoying

Controls:
Shift : sprint
E : Interact
WASD : move
Mouse : aim

The file is big so you might be better off downloading it for a better experience and more reliable frame rate.

Note: The voxels are hexagon shaped rather than cubes, I think it looks really cool but it also made it harder to make it.

Nice atmosphere, i really like the ambient music and dark setting. Only the controls are a bit shaky (my mouse sensitivity was all cranked up somehow).
Well done :)

Cool graphics/ambience.

I got launched through the ceiling when running through a door, then fell off the map.

Awesome entry! The first time the jump scare made me laugh to be honest, but I was far more careful once I realized they took hp! Great job setting the mood. The audio really added a lot.

Not locking the cursor key means that the game is not very playable on multiscreen machine.

Interesting idea about the hexagons and overall you got some good mood there. I spent some time walking among the corridors and died at the hands of the walls sticking hands after I picked the second key. A bit boring in the end

Interesting atmosphere, but gameplay is a little tedious. Running around corridors with the same texture can get dull. Still, nice idea and good game. Also great sound effects.

Pretty good FPS feel and sound - but the environments need some variation, and an automap would have been nice! Also you should lock the mouse cursor when clicking or you will get issues with people clicking outside the Unity web player.

Well-crafted mood. Great ambience and sound effects. Could have done with some textural variation, though.

First scare made me jump, after that they just started to get annoying. I like the hexy voxels, gutsy to go after that and they turned out looking really cool.

Graphics would have been much better if you had been more consistent - the basic tiles were blocky and pixelated, but then the hands where smooth and cell shaded? Etc.

Cool game, very effective jumpscares! :) Sound was also great, but gameplay could do with some variation. All in all the creepy mood really captures the player...

It was pretty cool, although next time you need to grab input, my mouse was flying all over the place D:
Also the mouse sensitivity is set waaaaaay too high D:

Also, also, what's the first song that plays? I'm pretty sure I recognise it frim somewhere

The hexagonal voxels were really cool, and the sound effects really set the mood, with some more work this would make a great game!

Pretty cool, loved the ambience, and I admit you got me good at one point. Jumped out of my seat ^^ I needed that. There were a few glitches, such as the looping door animations and clipping sounds, but otherwise good work. Could have used a flashlight and a map.
