A Path In The Woods

Here's MY VIDEO!!

A fun short game, i didn't understand the story or the ending but it was spooky, looking forward for more games by you. :D

Nice game

Really great experience, I'm not a game dev myself, but I'm sure they'll only get better with time! Excited to see what else you'll put out there!

Only thing that was a little frustrating for me, was how... undefined? The path was, other than that, nothing that can be fairly stated against someone new!

Hey DEV, I wanted to say that I enjoyed the old-style PS1 horror theme. I do have a few critiques by saying it wasn't very scary but some parts (like the car) did make me jump. Yes I had a creepy sense to it but I wish you added more to it instead of just like "walk around and touch items" with no real lore to the reason as to why I need to get those items. Overall I enjoyed it and so with my video I added some background noise/music to fill the forest atmosphere. Come check it out if you want!

Great pixelated horror game, loved the build up of tension. You created a great creepy experience, I was expecting to be hunted repeatedly. Really did well on the sound design, hope to see more from you in the future.

This game was SOO good with a little fine tuning it can be one of the best itch.io games I've played!! If you wanna see my blind reaction heres my video!! the game starts at 5:35 

AYE THIS GAME WAS REALLY GOOD. I ENJOYED IT.

When I played this game, I liked the way it flowed, there were good ambient parts of the game that got me, the thunder was one that scared me multiple times, lol. However I liked how there were those voices in the well. The only part I would have changed would have been have a knowing threat, ambience is good, but if there is a threat, you have something constantly scaring you. In some cases the tension of the reveal of the enemy is a good factor, however the ending of this game results in you being killed by the antagonist. That's just my opinion on the game though, even with its flaws, I still think its a terrific and impressive game, I can only wish that I had the kind of talent that goes into creating a game like this. If you are curious on my full reaction, I posted a video of me playing it on my youtube channel below.

Really Enjoyed it. For the short amount of time it took to create it it was actually terrifying and awesome background sounds.

A Path In The Woods [an short Horror game about He's been missing for 2 weeks] | Full Gameplay

This was very creepy and was a fun short horror game

This was very well done! Really enjoyed the buildup as I searched around! The pixelated horror style has always been a favorite of mine! Great job! 

A short and sweet horror game. Maze could be a little shorter since it's practically most of the game's content for people who get lost or wanna explore the entire thing. A great game for being created in only 2 weeks

- Leaving Sunset

great game, not too clear on what to do, but not hard to figure out on your own! awesome experience!

hi, big thx for the creepy game. greetings from rosti 😘

Hey yo nice game!! I really liked the style of the game and the ending, I really enjoyed it, I hope to play more of these styles

Keep it up

Gameplay PT-BR

Leave me alone mom! I am going to the woods for the ambience! I love pixelated horror games and this is chefs kiss. I got lost in the maze for a while, but follow the blood trail and you should be. Getting lost is part of the fear especially when I heard whispers from beyond. You really played on the audio extremely well. Maybe a little more direction since I got lost quite a bit on where I was supposed to go. Thank you for creating this game it starts at 25:37.

SCARY WALKING SIM. NICE WORK

Creepy game. I enjoyed it a lot. 

Short and scary, i was thinking there is other endings than die by jack, but as i see in comment here there isnt, i hope there more, i like pixeld games like this, hope to see more from you :)

here is my gameplay if you have time ill be glad to take a look at it 

It's pretty good! :)

- I liked the atmosphere with the rain and the sounds in general, the moments they triggered, the music... good job there, it was well done

- The graphics were nice, I really like that style

- Small detail, I thought that the objective was a bit gamey with the number "(3)". I thought: how do I know that I should find 3 things?

- I would have liked the path in the woods to be a little bit more defined, at least in the beginning. I was thinking that the character was trying to go through that path with a car, but it felt more like a forest

- When the "Press F to toggle your flashlight" prompt appeared, I was a bit confused and I was expecting something more. I thought that turning off the flashlight was going to involve some gameplay (seeing hints or creepy things when the flashlight is turned off for example)

- I liked that you could simply approach items to interact with them

- Near the first piece of paper, it felt like I could walk in the woods but there was an invisible collision (I think placing some grass, branches and rocks to delimit the path would fix it)

- I would suggest to put a gender neutral bathroom sign (just a nice little exclusivity detail). With the male/female bathroom sign, I expected to see the same signs in the building

- The objective to find the teddy bear appeared before I stepped on the note about the teddy bear so it felt a bit random at first

- I thought that the shower in the labyrinth building was clever, because hearing the running water was helping me orient myself

- When it was time to get out of the building, I thought that the "behind you" voice line should have triggered when I was going the wrong way... It was weird that I was going in the right direction and a voice was telling me to look behind (it felt like a false hint?)

- After finding the baseball cap, I noticed that there was a sound of the grating falling off - it was a good hint, but I would consider adding a visual hint too

- I enjoyed that the game was mostly creepy (just one jumpscare) and that the audio was balanced. Since it's your first game, I was afraid that some sounds would be too loud, but you nailed it!

- In the camping ground, after getting a bit lost in the labyrinth and in the well area, I felt some fatigue because I felt really lost and I was struggling to find my way. I would have liked to have a bit more pointers

- The thunder after picking up the soccer ball felt a bit forced, I think it might be covering the sound of the journal being updated too

- The sound of creaking branches in the woods, before arriving to the cabin with the man... that was quite creepy. Good job, I didn't want to look back lol

- I expected the character to say something when finding the person in the cabin... "Oh god..." or something like that

- When I found the key, I had completely forgotten about the locked door in the beginning... The character could maybe comment on having seeing a door earlier? Not sure.

- I didn't understand the drawing near the end. The drawing looked like a path, a door, an X and the number 7... Now that I'm staring at it in my video and writing this, I think it is pointing to the key, but I really didn't get it while playing lol

- I thought that the last message could have been "me" instead of "you". I dunno, I felt like I was playing a character, not playing myself

Good game! It was mysterious and intriguing and it kept me interested :)

I was killed by Jack. Does the game have many endings? Or only death

The game is very good and fun, and the horror atmosphere is very good!
