Namcap's Nightmare
UPDATE 15/12/16: We've added a Web build and fixed some gamebreaking bugs (like the infinite game over loop). Please be patient, the Web build takes some time to load (it's 40mb). We do recommend playing in the Windows build, it is A LOT more stable (and prettier).
You wake up in your room, but not your regular room.
Find all energies in order to escape through the door!
You might feel that you've played a similar old game before.
Move with WSAD or arrow keys. Shift to sprint, space to jump.
When you get all 50 energies, find the door and press E to open it!
- Original 3D models and structures, made from scratch.
- Textures were downloaded (royalty free) and then mixed/adjusted to our liking.
- Power up and atmosphere soundtracks are original, actually recorded.

Works well on OS X.
Also, @BUNN1E5, we wanted to make a Stamina bar and give a more complex AI and animation for the monsters, but again, not enough time. Perhaps next time we'll be able to do it faster :)
There are only 4 monsters, but they respawn after a while once you kill them.
The only thing that made me upset was when I gathered 3 ghosts to follow me to a powerup and I ended up hearing a Game Over sound after killing them with the power up on and then when a ghost caught me he has got in an infinite game over loop :D
The "Kill Them All" text should disappear after a while when having a powerup though :D
Nice idea to make a First person Pac-man!!
So lets break it down... I liked the graphics and they gave me the "Evil Dead" movie vibe of being stranded in a haunted cabin. Most the models seemed adhere to the creepy cabin theme with exception to the power pill which just kinda jumped out to me as being out of place. I felt the game could of benefited by having a mini map or compass as the dark setting without many different textures makes it difficult to know where you have been or where to go. Perhaps the the lack of these type of helpers where omitted to compound the claustrophobic feel of traversing dark hallways, if that were the case I wold suggest adding a few more art pieces to the walls to give the player a sense of where they are.
"You might feel that you've played a similar old game before. "
I see what u did there, man...
add one new mechanic or twist with gameplay and this'd be better...
A SOLID ENTRY! I give it overall 4/5
More variety of enemies might have helped, as well as reducing the difficulty right at the beginning (i died almost right away first time round). Good entry!
