It's been forever since the jam, but I'm combing through entries to edit together a supercut for pigsquad and wanted to stop and thank you for this awesome entry. So spooky! I liked how creatively you used the phones. Fun puzzles. Tense encounters that start out innocent. Oh, and I won't spoil the very, very end... but I got a kick out of it.
Nice game. You did a great job giving it the Alfred Hitchcock treatment and I'm a big fan. The only critique I have is the ending - it fell a bit flat (I was hoping to go into the basement), and although the music was cute and funny, it didn't match the time period and it kind of ruined the vibe of a dark game built on suspense. Other than that, I really enjoyed playing Vacant and hope to see more like this in the future.
Thank you very much for the great review! Yeah, we made this for a summer jam, and we unfortunately ran out of time for a proper ending. Thanks for playing!
Thanks for playing our game on your channel! I became an instant fan of yours. What you do is very entertaining! I've been sharing your video to people who want to see the game without having to actually play it.
I tried playing your game. It does look great. I liked how it was dark, yet you could still see everything. The music and record skipping was a cool effect. I was able to look around and play around with the telephone but when I started walking down the one hallway when the message "shift to sprint" message appeared, the game crashed. Happened twice, so I am not sure how to get passed that part without it crashing. Playing on windows btw
Hey thanks for checking out our game! Some other folks were having some trouble with crashing too. I’m gonna look into it and update it soon :) So keep on the look out for that in the next week!
