Great game. It looks great, even if it's a bit dark. You could build a whole game from here.

It looks amazing. And that's all this game has.
It's kind of boring, controls suck, it's a cliché, and I seriously doubt you did this in 72 hours.

Thanks everyone for comments .
@VersatileBox Thank you , very honest I respect that. It is my first LDJAM but I am not new developer I have more then 8 years experience in game development. I have used graphic assets from UE Marketplace , raw sounds from freesounds.org , Mixamo Fuse for characters and animations but everything else is me and UnrealEngine 4 .Enemy Character, sound mixing and design, level design .It was huge task for one man, that why is not polished enough. Believe or not ...

A lot of fun to play although a tutorial would be appreciated since I got lost very quickly (unless that's the point then you may ignore this comment).

Amazing visuals.

Impressive work!
The graphics are awesome, the lighting effect, the mood, were incredible. The game is too hard in my opinion, too bad i can't see the whole game, i'm stuck in the first corridor. I had a hard time controlling the character because of my azerty keyboard, i wish you bind arrow key also.

Sorry I didn't have fun.

What I didn't like :
* no AZERTY support - I swith to ENG keyboard
* sorry I don't find the theme, if it about using LMB and RMB to shoot, IMHO holding RMB is not friendly.
* 16 min to download, 1+ Go on Disk
* few bugs (eg start by going back, I fall in "dark", sometimes alien stop moving)

What I like:
* that you didn't enable rate about visual,
* work on introduction, and "storytelling"
* work on ambience & lights,
* an nice usage of external assets
* the POV

This is just about the best game I played in all of Ludum Dare. I have got nothing negative to say. I just love it. Stunning graphics, wonderful audio. Gameplay was a lot of fun, very well done! Enjoyed playing immensely, this one has a brilliant mood to it. Even the title screen was impressive. Thanks for this experience.

Really nice game, I've encountered a few bugs (not an intentional joke), but I cannot blame you for that. Good job, I enjoyed playing it!

I like to see works on EU4, we also use it. Although used many predefined assets and the gameplay is not optimal, it is an interesting job.

Happy holidays dear LudumDare Friends ! Thanks for playing my game and thanks for all those comments . I'm trying to learning from them and to be much better next time :D

I want you to finish that game so that I could play it!
I love the feel of the game, I like the music and sounds and graphics.
The lighting is just very very dark in some places making it impossible to see the creatures, and I glitched through the elevator a lot (making me restart the game), but other than that, I really really like it, I give this 10 stars out of 5 for pulling this off in 72 hours!!!
Is there a way I could follow up on what you guys are doing? twitter maybe?
DevDadauthor24 Dec 2015, 20:40
@Null DIES Thanks man ! You make may day ! If I had just someone to help me with graphics to make me free to focus more on gameplay and game design. Thanks !

Good work in such short time.
The intros are a plus

Very nice. It took me a while to realize how to target enemies, but I really had fun.

Keep up the good work.

Your game has too many bugs. I can't kill them all :o)
Looks promising, but I don't get how it connected with theme.

I'm impressed by the quality of the intro.

At first I didn't like killing the small bugs one by one with the pistol but after I got a bigger gun it was better.

It feels like it's lacking of level design and different enemies.

Gameplay left me wanting something more but the environment looks great and the intro sets a cinematic mood.
