An Uneasy Feeling by zybit

[raw]
made by zybit for LD34 (COMPO)
A game where fear grows. Navigate the world as the cloud of fear obstructs your view at critical points.

The game falls under the growing category. The fear grows (Literally the blob is scaling up) as time goes on.

Default Keyboard Controls:
Move Left - A
Move Right - D
Jump - Spacebar

Fear Meter: Fear meter goes up when out of "Fear free" and "Comforting" zones.

The Ooze: The green ooze causes the meter to go up by double.

Fear Free Zones: The only fear free zone in the game is the start area.

Comforting Zones: Under lamp posts with the particle effect the player will lose fear.

Spooky!!: When the fear meter maxes out the player gets "spooked" and runs around uncontrollably.

Sanity Meter: Sanity will go down by one every time you get spooked. The less sanity you have the faster you gain fear.

The game should work with a gamepad (tested with XBox One controller).

Very good atmosphere. Took a couple of attempts to get used to how the character moves, but fun to play after that.

Certainly the mood nailed it for this game, the music and graphics are a good match.

Good graphics and effects!
On my PC, the mouse click is registering about 100 pixels above where it appears to be.

I wasn't entirely certain what effected my meters, but I liked the character and the mood. Good work overall! Btw, not sure if it's a resolution issue, but I wasn't able to click the play button unless I placed my cursor well above the button.

I am confused about what to do in the game... its difficult to understand what I'm supposed to do in the game.
I like the art and the music though! :)

Confused in game, but the atmosphere is quite well done.

Not sure how this comes under 2 button control or growing.
The controls felt stiff, the jumping felt like I was on the moon, the button on the menu don't respond correctly to mouse position, the animation sticks sometimes and generally I don't feel I know what's going on. - There is no clear indication of what is affecting me in what way until I either randomly lose control or die.
The mood & audio were good however, even with limited graphics. Although possibly more sound effects could have been used.

It's really uneasy feeling when you start it 1024x768, click Play, and it exits :-P
Nice special effects!

I can see you don't have a lot of experience with animating humanoids, so this is probably a good learning experience for you. It's always good to do something out of your comfort zone! :)

The responsiveness of the character was not really good, the time between pressing the jump-button, and actually jumping was too long.
The graphics and music create a creepy mood, it's really good.

Well done!!

I didn't understand what to do. But graphics and atmosphere is quite good enough
