I really like how cinematic this game is. Almost like playing a movie in a sense. Awesome voice acting too. No real issues honestly except maybe that (spoiler) the jumpscare was missing the JUMP part lol. I had a fun time playing and I appreciate you making it! Here's my experience if you're interested. Also... here it comes.... WHAT'S IN THE BOXXXX???
I saw a lot of people making fun of the voice acting in this game, but I actually thought it was genuine. Anyways this game was a nice little indie horror game so keep up the great work my friend!
This game was pretty fun and interesting. the voice acting was pretty good and the character models were fun to make fun of. I think this game could have been worked on a little bit longer but overall this was a super fun game to play. It was also really fun to meme the hell out of this game. Check out my video if you want:
I doubt this is a coincidence. And if it's not you could mention getting the idea from here. If it turns out you have a connection (hell maybe this is an old game that used to be patreon-only and they got the idea from you or something) and you let me know I'll edit/delete this comment if you'd like.
Also missed a couple key things story wise that work better in the film. For one it would have helped to make it clear that it only moves when you're not looking. It's very clear in the video but not the game. Him leaving his wife there instead of them both leaving only makes sense because someone has to stay and watch the box. Also there is a reason he leaves instead of calling the cops or similar (not saying here, spoiler for the video).
Besides all that, it makes a nice creepy atmosphere especially for a five day game.
Hi, thanks for the comment. You can keep it up it’s fine. Look, I’ll level with you but you don’t have to believe me. Until people started mentioning it I had NOT seen this before. Yeah it’s hard to believe but the similarities are only vague at best.
The guy in the box? Mine is totally different. The one in the film is a an almost human looking person. The box gets dropped off by a friend and there is a phone conversation between them & what not.
I can see why people think it was inspiration, but it wasn’t. Just some coincidence. Regardless, most work these days are based off of something or inspired by something so I can see why people would think it was. I was more inspired by HP Lovecraft & Tim Burton than anything else.
I think you misunderstood, maybe i didn't make it clear enough. This was just my Opinion. It would've been cool if you had made more out of this idea. I mean I probably could'nt make a better game but.... You know? Anyways have a good rest day.
This game is quite amazing, but the only issue I have is not knowing what I am doing (being a deaf/hard of hearing person).
So I had to watch another video (Mainly MrKravin's one) to get subtitles on my own video (twice). You should maybe consider adding some to the game if possible. My only issue with it, cause I ran around like a headless chook..
Also, another thing that was wrong is (I think) some sound doesn't play, like I noticed in MrKravin's video that he got jumpscared by a sound playing in a room -- probably broken glass? It didnt play for me, like at all.
Firstly, that’s a great suggestion. I do need to work more accessibility into my games & this is something I have been thinking about a lot. This game was made in five days as a rapid ideation project so there are some things that need to be cut for that to work but I will 100% make sure I do this going forwards. I don’t want to exclude people from being able to experience or play the games I make.
In regards to the audio issue you had, this is the first I am hearing of the issue. I generally make a point of watching everyone’s video & haven’t seen this for myself. This is most likely an isolated issue or a glitch that just unfortunately happened to you whilst playing, so for that I am sorry.
I have dropped over to your YT & dropped you a sub & a like & also left you a comment. Thanks for being awesome!
I replied to your comment on my video, so I am replying here now.
Glad to hear that you're considering adding accessibility to your games. No-one's perfect when making a game, I would know that cause I tried to make my own game last year lol.
It's also pretty well made for just 5 days, honestly. Also, another thing to note is if you need some help with accessibility (like readable subtitle sizes), you can always contact me -- email is on my YouTube channel, in my about(clickable link)page.
Another thing that is a bit of a pain and would need to be changed is to shorten the distance to the car, because it is quite loooooong walk. Especially since you're just walking (yes, I do acknowledge you made this in 5 days :p).
Another thing you could do in there is maybe move the house closer to the edge of the fence?
Some more things you could possibly do is add a highlight for the thing you need, or even easier thing is to have a pop-up like "[press E to pick up item]"
so it's not that hard to find something.
Just shooting out some ideas to you. I have so many ideas that I can give you. Let me know if some of those are of help to you!
These are all great ideas! The game I am currently working on address the issue with prompts for interaction. I will deffo shoot you an email regarding subtitles. Thank you so much for the offer :)
Fun short horror game. It was certainly bizarre and I really liked the premise of the game. Receiving a mysterious box can be quite scary. I thought the animation and voice acting were hilarious and fun to watch. I did have trouble hearing what they said but that's on me for being deaf. The ending was a bit out of place for me. Overall, I can see you are improving well over the past games you made. Keep it up!
what!? 5 days? Well that is astonishing. It takes me 5 days to decide what pair of shorts I want to buy online. Ah I'm glad you enjoy my videos. I always enjoy playing your games.
That game was awesome! Different than anything I expected, for sure. I loved it, and hope to see more from you too, mister Aaron. According to your Patreon and Instagram you're working hard on it. I'll keep tuned. Good Luck!
Eyyyy thanks for checking those out! Yeah got some cool stuff in the works & I am mainly active on Twitter if you wanna check that stuff out. I checked out your youtube & left some goodies for you
I seriously hope to see more from you. This game had me creeped out a little to much. Especially when it's poking it's head and hands out of the box. Game looks and plays amasingle and if you're looking for a narrative style and is also pretty scary, this game Is for you. Congratulations. Remember to turn your stove tops off when you leave your house please.
What an INCREDIBLE IDEA for a game! It was well made for only 5 days, and in this video I explore my surroundings as well as make funnies for the viewers. I really think you should download this game and try it out for yourself! Here is my review of this game!
Had to play this as soon as I saw the screenshots. Loved the cinematography of the game (if it can be called that?) The voice acting was perfect and hilarious at the same time and it was super great to listen to. The amount of work that you put in really shows and it was a great and fun game! The game was true to its inspiration and does as much as it can in the short time it lasts. The end was diverged from the movie you based the game on and confused me at first but it was super hilarious!
Game was loads of fun, looked and sounded great, had a lot of fun playing!

Hey! i just tried your game, i really like the concept of the game, i enjoyed it! a bit creepy aswell :)

这个游戏很好，建议在结尾时不要直接被抓，再加一些追逐的互动
This just proves why you never take a package inside after midnight! And you never take it when you weren't expecting it! Great game, very spooky!!
Thanks for playing! Great video! Left you some love on YT!

Thanks so much for playing!
A sexy Babe.
Very lovely.
Yeah never opening another cardboard box ever again...
thanks so much for playing! Much appreciated :)
The concept has great creepypasta potential and it's impressive given dev time and manpower but it still feels like lost potential
Gameplay if you're interested:
Thanks for playing. Appreciate it :)
This game def had some creepy parts! the creature needs some work but the game was pretty good!
Thanks buddy! I appreciate the kind words

This Game is too boring.
eyyyy just like this comment. Thanks man
XDDDDDDDDD
What else should i say, its not scary, the Story is boring, the Progress is boring. The Idea is pretty good though.
it’s fine Juliiaan.
I imagine you are a pretty hard to please person.
Scary is subjective, just because you don’t find it scary doesn’t mean it isn’t scary.
What you find boring is also subjective. It is clearly interesting to some.
Get where I’m going with this?
This is why you are entitled to your opinion but doesn’t make it a fact.
I think you misunderstood, maybe i didn't make it clear enough. This was just my Opinion. It would've been cool if you had made more out of this idea. I mean I probably could'nt make a better game but.... You know? Anyways have a good rest day.
I know man. I acknowledged that.
Thanks again for playing & sharing your thoughts, good or bad. Take care, stay safe & enjoy your day too :)
Oh hell yeah
とても面白かったです！！！

No problem, happy to help!
The game's main character did the exact opposite of what I would've done lol.
Welcome to Horror tropes my friend. That’s exactly what happens. XD
Hey Berry! Was wondering when you were gonna get around to playing as I watch you quite often! Glad to have you play another of my games!
Thanks again for the support, yeah this was a little experimental for me & all done within 5 days :)
what!? 5 days? Well that is astonishing. It takes me 5 days to decide what pair of shorts I want to buy online. Ah I'm glad you enjoy my videos. I always enjoy playing your games.
Keep it up man!
