[NSFW]The Elevator - Release


Originally I wanted to release on Halloween, but I underestimated how much work this ends up taking. Allegedly, horror is a evergreen genre. So maybe it won't matter.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how horror is it? I feel like it is a 2. On second thought, more like horror themed. It might be scarier if you don't like R18G/Guro content, but in that case, you shouldn't be playing this at all.

I put up a warning on the game being in first person view because I honestly don't know how people will feel about that last scene. I almost removed it. In the end, I left it in because what is the point of experimenting if I wasn't going to go all the way. If that scene grossed you out, I apologize.

This has been an experiment of doing this kind of story in the victim's POV. That is not a new thing for horror games, but how can I do it without cutting to black is the question. 

One of the problem I ran into, is that without 3D character models, I needed to use pop ups to communicate what is happening to the player. Which, in my opinion, somewhat ruins the point of using first person view. If I could, for example, just have the player look down to see their own boobs getting groped instead of the pop up, that would be so much better. I can think of one way to do it with 2D sprites, but it will be very janky or extremely limiting.

It makes me want to invest in learning how to make very simple 3D models. Of course, learning to animate in 3D is another beast all together so I am hesitant to invest my time on it. Well, it is just things for me to think about.

I hope you got some fun out of playing the game. Let me know how you feel about that last scene if you are willing to share.

not bad for a first try, this felt like something that can be expanded upon the first person does make it feel more viceral, and fits the horror theme well, but actualy doesint work well with the guro/ryona aspect of the game, one idea is to make first person an option, could also use a progress scene function like with text boxes in games, the scenes of guro should ether have the option to replay looped, or just function like ingame dialog text, also i really like the use of sprites, and your art styles much better than simple 3d would be but i understand its more limiting than 3d. anyways im interested to see what you make next, or if you want to add to this game for now.  rock on bro.
