    Note: Chrysalis is an hour long standalone adventure that serves as a prologue to the upcoming Lake Haven game. It's got a nice mixture of horror, puzzles and cheesy puns. And it also has a very special easter egg!

      @@AlphaBetaGamer We're still in quite an early phase, but things should be much faster with our experience from Chrysalis, this took 2 years but much of that time was knocking everything down and rebuilding. We have more of a kind of an idea of how to progress with Lake Haven, we will also have many more people helping out too. Been watching your videos for years, really surreal to see our game here.

    If you make a separate text field off screen, you can preload your text there to get the NewLine in place in advance.
    That way, when the text is blitting out on the screen itself, you can avoid having it realize that it needs to start a NewLine mid-word, which causes that jump cut effect.

    • @thesidneychan
      @thesidneychan Рік тому +1

      @@DaniArkadia I think the options should be in the main menu before starting the game. Basic stuff like resolution, filters, framerate before hopping in. And also skippable intro to jump straight to gameplay.
      I also notice based on this video that the game runs pretty much 30fps for everything, including the menus - the original silent hill ran 60fps on the menus and 30 during gameplay. Perhaps add a hybrid option?

      ​@@DaniArkadia I just got into the game to look at the settings.
      I think it would be nice to have 60fps for menu and 30fps for gameplay as a hybrid option.
      For filters maybe have the option to remove the checkerboard dithering?

    what is the point of burying the key when someone could simply break a window to get in?
    or go through the door if they had the right tools/skills
    how does this place have electricity? out in the middle of no where. there are no powerlines. no way they did it underground with nothing around.
    another problem horror games have is flashlights, either they require batteries which is ridiculous if they are fresh.
    or the lighting fails to be realistic.
    like here it only shows the cone area of where you are aiming. in reality the entire room would become visible.
    since light also bounces off surfaces. it would be darker behind you. but you'd still be able to see if indoors.
    28:07 glitch!
    Closing
    if you ignore all the horror trope problems this has. it was an good experience in terms of atmosphere.
