    THIS IS AWESOME. I saw it on the IndieCade site and it was the best idea on there and possibly the best I've seen in a long time. To do so much with so little.... wow.

    Oh man, can't wait to try this out! And please, pretty please, capitalize on sound design as much as humanly possible in this. Some of the ambient audio in this video really, really worked. The aesthetic could lend itself to any mood, depending on the sound design... not to mention the objects the player ends up revealing...

    To be good, if you create a game where it will be necessary to bombard the wall to go through a maze.

  • Bryan Teoh plus 1 year ago
    awesome!!!! I love the background soundscapes. The popping sound for the ball kind of cheezified it a little bit, but all in all an impressive venture to new aesthetics for gaming.

    **YES!**

    The aesthetics are beautiful, concept is novel, and potential is large.

    I second other comments on the sound. The ambient soundscape is perfect. The popping sound effect is a bit incongruous and distracting... though the gun sounds in the black realm seem more in the right direction.

    What struck me in the black realm, with the white "window" silhouettes, is the shear potential in this game for messing with depth perception. Those 'windows' could have been far away or near (as in fake, very small square grids on a wall), with no possibility to tell aside from shooting in the direction. I sense that aspect could be a unique opportunity to build upon in creating disorienting levels.

    Keep up the great work!

    Beautiful work. Nice use of perspective and space. Love the high contrast effect. The sound worked for me, made it really interactive.

    as an Architect in Training. I feel this isn't just a game but a powerful tool to allow clients to understand concepts of the depth of an architectural space.... Big Ups on Architectural Suspense!

    One of the games I'm most excited about, the potential is staggering. Especially the text on the floor you saw and the music...so creepy. I'd buy this game in an instant.
