Atmospherically, this is absolutely great again. The jumpscares were right again, only N4bA can do that. I also think it's great that something new is being tried out here with the shotter aspect.
But in my opinion, the mechanics still need a lot of work. The character staggers like after 5 bottles of vodka, which makes it really hard to aim properly. This is made even more difficult by the limited FOV. In addition, you don't have any aiming points, laser pointers or crosshairs. After each shot, the character pulls the gun up so high that the second shot goes into the ceiling.
I understand the intention behind it, to keep the game as realistic as possible, but from a purely gameplay technical point of view, it doesn't really work for me.
I also think the game is called prototype because it is a kind of technical demo in which the developer simply tries something new. But the whole thing is really good and I hope they perfect it and bring out a really cool game in the style of Condemned.
Another thing to note is that the game lags annoyingly and crashed once when I went down to the basement.
I'm very curious to see what will become of the whole thing. N4bA is and remains the best developer studio for horror games at the moment.
Terrifying with solid shooting mechanics. The frame rate was a bit of an issue, I found myself missing some jump scares and missing shots even on the low setting. The flickering when you encounter an enemy made it hard to gauge where I was at times. Overall excellent experience.
I've just find out about this site and this was my first game from this developer...got some long forgotten jump scares and planning to come back here and check for other products. Since I am playing FPS mostly there was no problem for me shooting them "bogies" down...but they gave me damn good scare.
When I launch into the game it starts auto walking my character forward and to the left. would love to try this game but I cant have any real sort of control over the character. (I do not have any gamepads or anything of the sort plugged in so that is not the issue) any help would be appreciated
This game scared me so bad that I ended quitting lol but besides that this game actually runs amazing. I love the aesthetic of it and the realism really adds to the horror.
This game was awesome I had a blast, it was definitely one of the creepiest games I've played and if you want to watch me freak out click the link below but most importantly, please download the game yourself and support the creator you won't regret it. Somethings NOT right here| Deppart prototype - YouTube
I hope this evolves into a full game, the atmosphere was creepy af and the gunplay felt great! The screams that the creatures give off can get really loud, could be something to fix
this game is awesome the scariest game ive played in a long time this is a 10/10 if it was vr probably wouldnt have finished and i usually dont scare that easy keep up the good work and i hope you enjoy the gameplay
really enjoyed this, the graphics are insanely impressive and the sounds in this game were terrifying especially the ones that they enemies were makes near on shat myself lol, honestly though fantastyic and that dance at the end.... WOW
if you have a controller plugged in, unplug it, thats typically the sign of the game reading the controller on games that dont support controller support, it could be something else, but try restarting it without the controller plugged in, hope that works
hello n4ba learn game with ryan on his youtube channel it horror and i wanted to play your game becuse i am unrecord it vr game since it like alternative but if some get contact with the guy make unrecord pc with vr headset that be cool also your are cool person check other games when i have time.
Awesome game but u h I feel like the loud screaming approach to jumpscare or just e a r r a p e audio jumpscares in general are kinda cheap shots, very good prototype though so far, just try some new ideas for jumpscares! it was awesome though so don't take this as just bad news!
i fully agree w what you’re saying aswell. it just seems….idunno…, like a joke almost? it’s “scary” because it’s loud. but if we can figurenn n out a way to hve some kind of …guttural, raspy [but loud], i’m-coming-straight-for-you kind of YELL- as opposed to a scream if that makes sense- i think the enemy would be scarier. just like loud =/= funny, it doesn’t equal genuine scare, either, imo.
It looks amazing, and like every game I've played of your's is absolutely terrifying, even in this prototype state. The only complaint I have is that the fisheye effect causes some nausea to me atleast.
Visuals, sound design, atmosphere, absolutely on point. I didn't know you could pull this off with Unity. But for the love of God, give me an option to turn down the enemy screams without making the remaining game silent. When I died and the game said "Retry" I had no idea what button to press and accidentally started a new game when I randomly clicked, so I only played it until the 2nd enemy encounter.
what game engine did you developed this in? I am inclining toward UE 5 due to photorealistic materials. I want to know if I am right. It is scary af, ngl.
Good job on this one N4bA! Definitely one of the scariest indie horror game I've played this year! Can't wait for the full release (if you plan to make one) and this is gonna be a big game forsure!
This game has a lot of potential, gives me cry of fear/total chaos vibes, which are one of my top favorite horror games.
I like the lack of an HUD, but some way of telling the player how much ammo left would be nice, like holding R button to show how many bullets are left, or some kind of backpack/pockets system where you can look and see what items you have left.
Some lights just didnt make sense(floating red lights) , but that can be explained by it being a prototype.
The atmosphere is really well done, but i hope the game wont rely on jumpscares that much, if it will ever be completed.
When I start to play, my character automatically looks up, without me doing anything. I can't get that away. I can't look anywhere, because it locks me looking up.

i dont can play this, and i dont know why
Ok. But why controls are reversed?
W - back, S - forward, A - right, D - left?
It's unplayable for me with this xD
um, sometimes there is a problem that due to the frieze, the camera turns over, just look up or down all the way and it should fall into place
Its very very good. I like it but I got lost because some places were very dark.

Hi. The game is awesome. But it lags quite a bit when going from one room to another, and I have an RTX 3070 Ti
when I open the game my camera starts spinning and it wont stop
if you have a controller plugged in, unplug it, thats typically the sign of the game reading the controller on games that dont support controller support, it could be something else, but try restarting it without the controller plugged in, hope that works
Fixed

this is good old unity
Immersive and those amazing jumpscares really got me. Great short horror experience!
Runs fine at 1080p, but not too great at 2k on a 3090. Overall great demo.
This horror game definitely deserves a full version! 😭😭 Good job once again dev 😁
I DONT KNOW WHATS WORSE..? Walking Through a creepy ass hallway or the fact that i shit myself..
This has potential!

most likely you have a gamepad connected, or something similar, you need to disable it
