fixedIn another world I might have just given this game a few more updates and called it a day, but I could not do that even if I wanted to anymore. I lost the project files about a year ago so that's why I haven't fixed the horrible flashlight yet. And on my last playthrough I just saw so much I did not like about it that I probably could not fix it just with updates, so here we are.
changedThe game is heavily optimized so it looks AND runs like a game from 1997
changedBetter overall sound design
changedSmaller HUD, don't know why my older games had huge HUDs. Cant tell with Where The Crows Roam because I have been decreasing the size of its HUD over multiple updates.

Steam post image Thank you all for your support and constructive criticism! I cant help but look back at this game with mixed feelings. I made this game in sixth grade in about three months and kind of rushed it out onto Steam, and it shows in a lot of ways. I am more experienced when it comes to making games now, especially when it comes to using Unreal Engine as I have had about a year and a half to get more comfortable with it. So I thought why not do this game some justice and use my current skills and remake the entire game.

In another world I might have just given this game a few more updates and called it a day, but I could not do that even if I wanted to anymore. I lost the project files about a year ago so that's why I haven't fixed the horrible flashlight yet. And on my last playthrough I just saw so much I did not like about it that I probably could not fix it just with updates, so here we are.

I am going to set some standers this time to ensure this game is actually something that I will be happy with. Before we get into the plan I am going to set a goal to get the "Gas Station Into" finished by October 31st so y'all can play it on the big day!... if I don't get sidetracked.

Now on to the list of objectives that I will try to achieve with this remake.

  • The game is heavily optimized so it looks AND runs like a game from 1997

  • The game has a more clear story

  • The environments look like real places and are coherent, they also need to be easily navigatble (unlike the vents and cheap make in the current version)

  • The game has more things to do, not just flipping levers

  • A simple inventory

  • It NEEDS to be more scary and tense unlike the original

  • Better overall sound design

  • Smaller HUD, don't know why my older games had huge HUDs. Cant tell with Where The Crows Roam because I have been decreasing the size of its HUD over multiple updates.

  • Achievements are planned as well

Hope this is as exciting to hear as it is to announce! Would love to see you in the next installment of PSX HORROR, East Wood Carnival 2.0
