"This felt like someone's first attempt at making a horror game. That isn't a bad thing. It's just my experience with this game is a little...hostile, to put it lightly.
The game doesn't have a pause menu. So the reason why I randomly looked up is because I needed to be away from the keyboard. I found out the hard way there are no threats during my initial walk in the night.
I also found out you can walk faster by walking diagonally. Sure this occurs even in triple A games but in those games, the speed difference was barely noticeable. In this game. In this game, it's noticeable to the point where I found out about it on accident.
Spoilers for the ending, I thought the game was broken when I couldn't go past the fallen fence. Turns out you had to get into a stranger's van to escape. I would be nice to make that a bit more clear.
Overall, the game was okay. I do hope the developer gains experience from this and not let my negativity deter them from making better games. We all start somewhere."
