i have no idea how to open and run this game, could someone help me out?
Dunno if it's just me, but I couldn't get out of the circular room with the two meters on the table with the 4 doors around it. Is that a glitch or am I stupid?
you need to press ready (P key on the keyboard). In the upper left corner of the screen before the game starts there is a widget that shows the "player ready" status
That's how I got killed in the first place, by pressing P and then playing. The entity killed me, then I wound up in a new room, with two meters on the table. Do I just press P again in there? There's no prompt for anything. None of the doors open, there's no Press P in the corner.
Yes, due to a bug, the widget does not open again, but the key still works. I'll fix this in the next patches very soon
for once enjoyed a horror, very realistic graphics AND sounds. it felt like i was there frfr :) the only game i didn't regret downloading, it is worth every megabyte. please let me know when you update it for a working multiplayer!
The color scheme in game is so interesting. Intensifies the horror!
