Imma be honest, this shit had my bootyhole puckered damn near from start to finish lol BrafreakinVO, tremendous job on the intensity and pace, genuinely felt like I couldn't breath a couple times! I know I get scared at everything so my opinion certainly isn't end all be all but I absolutely loved what you did with this game and found it to be quite the experience. Everyone over there at this studio should be proud of this one and if this game is an indication of what you guys are capable of, I absolutely CAN NOT wait for future projects! Long post but definitely had to show you guys love
'On One's Own' is an intriguing title, to begin with. After playing, I can confidently say this is my favorite indie horror game! The overall environment of the bunker is eerie and strange. I immediately felt uneasy and anticipated something to happen. The concept of maintaining the systems to keep you safe is genius. I always enjoy interactive horror games.
😊 The game itself was enjoyable. The graphics were sharp and detailed with texture. The binaural audio made it seem like I was actually in the bunker. I had no issues with the controls or mouse sensitivity. In terms of jump scares, there were quite a few. I had the game audio fairly loud, so I was caught off guard once or twice. Simple things like the radio going off were subtle attributes, good enough to give you a scare. That goes to show how far sound itself can take you. I loved the ending and length of the game. 10/10, I would definitely recommend it! I hope to see more from this developer. This crushed my expectation for a four-week school project. I am also a classical musician, so that is an extra point from me (for the music). ^-^
Good puzzle/horror game. It would be interesting if there were some notes that would give a background to what is happening in the bunker both outside and inside. An interesting idea for the game. Anyway, good game. Congratulations to those involved.
This was very entertaining! I enjoyed the idea of rushing off to fixing things, and then sometimes two things were wrong. The jumpscare at the end though, very good. Took me a little while to figure out, how to get out. THANK YOU FOR AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE! here is my video
This was pretty good for it being a school project! I hope to see more complex games from you in the future. I give some more in-depth feedback in the video but overall, it's not bad at all!
This is a really nice game! I like the idea, it was really interesting and fun to play and it has a creepy atmosphere. Really liked the sounds! Good job (:
This has been a very entertaining (and terrifying) experience! I love the atmosphere and how it seems I may be slowly losing my mind... that or the creepies and crawlies are real. Not sure which outcome is more scary.
A pretty decent horror game about maintaining critical bunker systems. Playtime is around 10-15 minutes.
My playthrough:
(SPOILERS BELOW)
My thoughts on the game:
The game doesn't really explain why you're in the bunker in the first place.
I really liked the mechanics of the game, I think they're really nice and for a bunker idea very good!
A little unfortunate how you have to replace water filters every 5 minutes in this sort of bunker, it would've made a little more sense if maybe there was a window into the water purifier or something, and instead of water, there would be a bunch of blood - explaining the weird issue.
Is there a story to this game? All I figured is that the place has a mind of it's own and it's trying to help you not die by the monsters but keeps you inside because it doesn't want you gone. I wish it was a little more obvious in-game, since usually small horror games like this go by random occurrences.
It isn't really clear where the air filter or safe area is, I kind of got confused at that part. If they were sectioned in different rooms, like for example a small extra room to the storage and power room, which will show up in the map as "Safety room" or "Air quality room" it would've been way more clear.
Overall, a really nice short horror game that definitely gave me the spooks!
Hi there, I am a Skilled Game Tester and a very small YouTuber focusing on Indie Games, I have taken a look at your game and here is an energetic fun Gameplay Video with some feedback:
I would ask you to join to my YouTube channel and subscribing for maybe more content that would benefit you, and because this also motivates me to keep doing what I am doing in order to help and support indie games and developers alike, here is some notes that might be of a help for this game or future projects:
♦ Game Idea: The idea of the game is great, I love how you have made the envirement change after focsuing on maintaining the bunker or trying to! Such a good horror game, well done!
♦ Gameplay: There are some good aspects of the game, for example; the falshlight not responding in certain places, that was scary! Other aspects of the game need a second look, there are places where they are super dark and you literally can not see anything, I am talking about the section that is closer to the ending, where all things start to change! (It took me aound 10 min to find the control panel for the exit, I took off that from the video by the way)
♦ Story: Great start for the story, although I must say there is very little focus on the storyline, would have been nice to find some other hidden messages like small notes and short journels!
♦ Artwork: The desgin of the game is nice, some textures were missing; I have included one in the video to take a look at, towards the starcase in the end... Was wondering about the first exit door at the very start, I felt the door is either tiny or I am a big person haha
♦ Audio: Great work with the audio design, those whispers and sound effects are fantastic! Even the radio has that limited range which adds to the whole game! The nice work on the audio gave the Radio a character in the game and it felt as an important item for the first half of the Gameplay.
♦ Bugs & Constructive Criticism: I believe what I have mentioned above is the important parts so far! Maybe I have missed a bug, but can't remember if there is anything additional worth mentioning (You might find otherwise when watching the video, not sure)
♦ Things to Double Down on: I know you guys have made this project for college, but I believe you have a good solid approach towards making horror games! Keep it up and best of luck!
This was an absolute treat to play. The atmosphere from the jump was tense, the constantly changing environment was well done and the ending was fantastic too. Good Job *****
Oh yeah. This was a good one. Really, really nice work on it! The atmosphere, gameplay loop, and sound design was all superb. Thanks for sharing this with us!
what a really cool horror game. it was legit scary and it scared random noises right out of me. I’m posting 2-3 under 5 minute funny moments and reaction compilations a day. I’m working really hard to make this my career so please at least consider subscribing. But a watch is just fine to
So I redid he game and holy hell is it scary! I loved it! A really awesome job making this game! I will be checking his other games as well! Highly recommend
Hi, thanks for trying out our game, it does seem like you ran into a bug around 7 mins into the video that soft-locked the game. My team and I are looking into it. Would you mind letting us know what happened during your jump-cut when figuring out the power generator?
Nice game, enjoyable athmosphere, scary moments, good tasks. i made a walktrough on the second half of this video! if you're to scared to play it yourself!
this is such a great game, you captured the atmosphere and sounds perfectly had one little bug but no big issue, all in all its a really good and really well made game, gameplay above if you enjoy be sure to hit like and subscribe button!
I was scared to try this, but I decided to brave it and play the whole thing today. It was really amazing!! What a frightening yet exciting experience! Both the audio and visuals were so powerful and effective, especially near the end! I wish it was a longer game that I could play for a couple of hours. Amazing job :) :)

Simple yet excellent. Good environmental and sound horror design instead of cheap jump scares.
