That was incredible, you can really see the visual inspiration from Bioshock, but you really make the gameplay your own. There were so many unique puzzles in the game, I loved the light switch, completely unexpected. While just the capacity to break objects to find hidden areas was really fun. The fact that I found the hideout of the Toilet Paper Bandit was hilarious. I did find the creepiest moment just walking in on that standee, I was really thinking I was alone just for it to be right in front of me.
I really wish there was more, it really gives me the feeling of ‘Nightmare of Decay’, a game that shows its inspiration in a really well crafted game, that makes the design it’s own.
Not a problem, but I have to know, was it an issue I was confused with and its a my-bad, or was there a misconception in the game and I was infact registering it fine? Just wanna know if I was having a brain-fart or if I had a point lol
You got a point but until I see your playthrough, everybody entered the code just fine so idk. I'm just gonna add another line saying lowest number to the highest.
The whole idea of this being inspired by "Bioshock" just blew me away and that was the reason behind me playing the game. I have to say, the details in the game and storytelling is extraordinary, pure gold. The sound design and mechanics are massively amazing. You nailed the atmosphere and all the rest is just great, truly 5/5 stars.
Yet, there are some things I might say after the praise. Well, first of all, the game looks way too similar to "Bioshock" and that's not bad, only if you are trying to use it commercially, maybe. Even without the price, there are some obligations and I really don't wish this game to be taken down like "Silent Hill - Little Baroness", which was a fan game, inspired by "Silent Hill" the same way this game is inspired by a triple A production game. There are some policies, which developers can't escape due to plagiarism or copyright material. Now, I am not saying this game might have the same problem, but again, the resemblance is super obvious. Although, there are games, which still work outside of the "CC" zone, you know, like "Bloodborne Demake" game on itch.io.
I personally have not encountered any bugs. The game was smooth, simple, not overly complicated and exceptionally interesting. The minor complaint I have is purely subjective - the music choice. I think the OST for the game is brilliant, but it does not suit the "underwater" atmosphere and it is more "guitar" modern style rather than "classic" - as the game's story takes place during 1930s.
In Conclusion, I wish you all the best. I want this game to be played by as many as possible and I am in full support for this project. Good luck and keep making great content. Cheers 👍
Hey! Thanks for the nice words friend! I think I will be fine, I've seen some Bioshock fangames that survived, I don't think 2K or Irrational is on their way to hunt these games. Glad you enjoyed it :)
Truly great art and direction. Thanks for making it.
I agree with you, but not all games are as good as this one and neither did Konami hunt down "Silent Hill" clones, but developers still got hurt, so, I am saying this just in case. My one project got canned to for the same reasons - speaking from exeperience. All the best to you 👍🏻

Absolutely loving your game but I can't figure out the combination to the safe
Me too!
There is a txt file in the game's folder containing the codes and combinations if you are stuck. Thanks for playing anyway!
