Well. What to say 0_o
This was an experience for sure. The overlay was very headache-inducing. I liked the creepiness of the music and the guys face. Couldn't get very far because it hurt my head unfortunately :(

Great mood! Creepy art, liked the TTS also.

Oh jeez that was creepy...!
Sweet work, it all fit together really well...
Not sure about the pausing every time it said something though, it kinda disrupted the games flow...

Chrome told me that a variable called 'meSpeak' on line 26 was not defined, but I still heard all the creepy speaking...

Thanks for the all the comments :) Oh, and sorry about the headache(s)!

Xeke_Death: Yeah, not too happy about pausing the game either. Unfortunately the TTS eats so much CPU when processing that a few frame updates are missed, making the physics fail and causes all entities to drop through the platforms :/

Eerie and dizzying, what the heaven that I just play? :D
Quite slow to play on my laptop, so I can't play it to the fullest of it's potential. Looks really promising though...

Love it. Lots of points for mood. Shooting felt a little clunky but this added to the desperation.

It looks unique, but it doesn't play unique.

The look and feel are quite creepy, but the gameplay itself is fairly vanilla

What a garish digital acid trip. Too bad the gameplay wasn't on par with the graphics.
