Hey @pompipompi, thanks for testing out the game! What FPS were you getting when you played it from looking at the FPS counter on the top right? What are the other specs on your pc by the way? In the really dark areas, you can press F to turn on your torch. I plan to dim the lighting a little further to increase the creepy factor It's a little too well lit currently. I played the game, I didn't watch the video.

It tops at 50 FPS and sometimes goes as low as 18. Here is a screenshot: My CPU is intel i3-2100 3.10GH GPU is Geforce 550 Ti 8 GB of RAM Windows 7 64 bit. I have an up to date NVIDIA driver. Using Google Chrome. Anything else?

Hi @Pompipompi, I did notice the FPS drop at the start of the game, but it didn't lag after that apart from during the castle generation. Your PC is a pretty good one, so it's interesting that the game lags on you - thanks for letting me know I'll do a bit more performance testing.
Re: the darkness - you can press F to turn on your flashlight. Cheers, Joe

To clarify, It doesn't matter how good the render quality is.

Hi Avgudar, what browser and OS are you using if you're using the web player? Or did you download the executable.

Executable. I use windows 8. Strange though that it runs fine when facing certain directions, but not some. Here is a video I recorded of the problem: You can see how when I face certain directiosn the framerate goes down.

Did the torch work for you if you pressed F?
It was a bit hard to tell, but it looked like some of the wall textures weren't loading - I'll check this out, although it will be tricky without being able to reproduce it here.

Thanks man! By the way, I expanded on the game a little (now you can finish the game and there is a creature that will chase you ) and entered it into the 7DFPS: http://7dfps.com/?action=games&id=236Feel free to vote for me Very interesting idea, I'm excited to see where you go with this! Good luck.

Rather than having something obvious like a countdown clock I am thinking about more subtle cues that the player is running out of time.
You could always have an actual clock, or multiple clocks randomly placed in various rooms. Maybe just make it clear that they're getting closer to midnight (or some time that's specified at the beginning). Depending on how supernatural you want things to be, another option could be to make the ticking accelerate over time until it reaches a "breaking point" and the chimes ring out signalling that the time limit has been reached. And then something horrible kills the player...maybe?

Great ideas - actually for the 7DFPS I ran out of time so ended up making an obvious countdown clock haha I did however have some other cues to alert the player: the music gets creepy near the end of the countdown, and then a creature chases you down after that. I didn't quite get the time to do it,but I was hoping to slowly dim all the lights as the end of the timer approached. I like the idea of a grandfather clock type thing - esp after I watched The Conjuring recently Rather than having something obvious like a countdown clock I am thinking about more subtle cues that the player is running out of time.

Wonderful project. I am such a project has never seen. I have a proposal. Make the ability for users to customize the timer so that it can vyberat if he wants to go with a timer or without. I for example want to play without a timer. just go
And another suggestion. zdelat levels longer. And also allow users to customize the size of the level of

Thanks @kop9000, those are excellent suggestions especially if I port to mobile (which I am definitely considering for iOS or maybe Win8 as a practice run). I like using the vibration to indicate the proximity of the monster thank you very much. consider my idea in the topic #34 post
