Everything about this game is just incredible! The atmosphere is just phenomenal and the graphics are hands mown superb! So much so that my laptop can’t handle them at ultra :(
Part 2 of my Let's Play — I was blown away by the atmosphere, amazing job creating suspense! I think there's a lot you can do to expand on the gameplay and really give it life or death stakes, but overall, I loved the game and cannot wait for the sequel!
Just finished playing the game, and I was very satisfied. I only have three complaints: 1) For some reason, every time I'd pass from one level to the other, the game would reset my graphic and visual settings, and I had to go to the menu and change it back every time I changed levels. 2) Some jumpscares had characters running but there was no motion (they were T-posing) and that was a little weird for me. 3) The camera zoom was really confunsing. I'd personally had prefered if "E" was zoom in and "Q" zoom out instead of "E" for both.
But let's talk about the very good ideas you guys had.
I loved both the story and the ambience. There was some lack of logic here and there (like how did he first get to the camp with all doors and windows locke when he was inside, or how despite having experience as a Russian translator he still needed a dictionary to read and write Russian), but it doesn't really affect much the experience.
And the idea to play as the Ivan's mother? Really good! I felt like I could absorve and understand more the story thanks to that.
At first I thought the ending was a little underwhelming, but after the credits and seeing there will be a sequel it felt satisfying, so good ending overall.
Also, some of the scariest parts were related to sounds (wich you guys nailed it!) more than to jumpscares, so maybe explore more of that!
WOW!!! Another fantastic game from yourselves, having only played the 'From Day To Day' Demo I told myself I will be playing more of your games as I really like the style of horror that you bring! I found 'Summer of '58' on steam and was like OMG I gotta play it!! You have outdone yourselves yet again truly fantastic! All the right scares in the right places! It takes a lot to make a game that truly terrifies you and you've done just that! I have never been so scared whilst playing a horror game there were points where I actually didn't want to continue cos i was just so terrified!!
Well done this game is incredible!! Keep up the amazing work!
Here is part 1 to my game play!! I look forward to finishing it off and will definitely be playing your other games!
This was a great atmospheric game! You guys did a great job of building up tension as the story progresses. I thought the sound design is top notch in this game and I was born deaf! Minor nitpick, but I would add a fixed camera angle showing the backpack and its items when you start the game. I missed it at first, but eventually found the backpack. There were some slow parts in the game and I can see that it is hard to find a good balance between building tension and action. I think you guys did a great job overall!
What a great game by Emika. The atmosphere and visuals are great the sound is amazing like always. At first I thought it relied on jumpscares but I was mistaken and enjoyed the whole experience, the scares were done really well. Was excited to see that its connected to your upcoming game ''From Day To Day'' as I've been waiting for that since I first found out about it at start of the year. Keep up the amazing work!
One of the best games I've played. Excellent story, the sounds in this game are second to none and the jump scares were on point. Thank you Emika Games for an amazing experience 👍😁
Fantastic game! You do an excellent job building tension with eerie sounds and creepy visuals, which makes the jumpscares all the more potent. I love the tragic backstory and detailed lore. A few parts dragged on (especially the letter writing), but overall, a thoroughly terrifying game!
Always Enjoy the product Emika Games puts out! Great stuff, they are setting the bar so high for horror games in 2021! Check out the full game right here! Can't wait for From Day To Day!
There's definitely some creepy stuff in this game, and some good scares. Some parts are kinda slow and drawn out though, which kinda took me out of it at times. It's not a bad game or anything, but I found myself a little bored in some parts. Pretty cool experience overall though. Thanks!
Absolutely AWESOME !! Everything about this game is top notch! Atmosphere is insane, the lighting effects, graphics, and the story line is perfect! Full game play here:
Incredible atmosphere, brilliant audio, fantastic and realistic looking visuals, but I think most importantly, amazing scares. Well worth a play. Loved it from start to finish. You WILL be spooked at least a few times. Looking forward to From Day To Day too.
