I think a “buy back” mechanic needs to be added incase you accidentally sell a clue and then realize you needed it later. Seriously though I love these devlogs keep it up guys and when can we get a full setup tour from Preston?

Add lakes and rivers with aquatic monsters

The spider needs procedural animation. 100%

It would be cool if "The Rival" was a actual enemy, occasionally appearing and acting like a timer of sorts, where if you dont get the target in time they do instead

I dont really know if its already there but you could add like object roadkill too (like not entity just immobile model of the alreday existing one, just so the player will be scared cuz he aint sure if its the living roadkill or not) but idk maybe its a bad idea Also your game seems really cool

I think the grey thing will be a weeping angel type thing, where it moves when you look away.

I don't know what you guys have planned for the monsters, but I think it'd be cool if they were minions of Elijah. Like, the reason the cult is so obsessed with feeding the pit is because neglecting to feed it results in all these monsters appearing and start killing indiscriminately. Could be a fun twist of fate if getting caught by the monsters means getting fed to the very same pit you've spent the whole game feeding

As someone else already pointed out, there definitely need to be "fake" roadkill enemies so you will be surprised when the real one attacks Also loving the shop! I think it could provide a good opportunity to convey some lore. Maybe some changing graffiti on the building, maybe the shop keeper slips you a note under very specific conditions

a thought for the tattoo if you're concerned that the ping system makes it too easy then instead you could use right click to cause footprints and handprints in a certain radius to glow to give a subtle nudge in the right direction rather than outright pinging them

weird suggestion but if you wanted some extra atmosphere to make it feel more alive you could add volumetric fog with noise to give kind of windy effect, lethal company uses it alot and even though its a very small detail it adds so much

9:06 That Tree Spider knows how to KILL EM OOO

I love the shop keeper, his name should be Jeff, and maybe he could be a secret boss monster. And plot twist, he is the shack itself

I don't know if it's too late to recommend this monster, but I would love to see the hide behind in your style. If you want a quick explanation of what this monster is, it is one of the monsters that supposedly stalked the lumberjacks and made them always have a weapon. I think if you want a simple but effective mechanic for this monster, the simplest thing would be that the monster would get behind the player and sometimes make noise when walking behind sometimes running and when the player turns around, this monster would hide behind something. If the player is fast enough, he could see it and escape.

I'd like to give a little suggestion for the monsters : when ever you feed ELIJAH he should give yo information about a random creature based on how likely you'd encounter them or through environmental clue. it just adds a lot of depth.

that thumbnail 💀

The outro caught me off guard, but it was a welcome surprise. Keep up the great work guys!

Make the monsters be able to eat your target before you get him

the rip arms guy should say "you hair is so beautiful.... what the price?", the giant spider look strange i think that if you scale down the body to a car size and keep the legs the same its design wold be better,and monster idea: a small creature that steal the clues and use it like a shell and to get then back the player must chase it and knock them down

I love all of the monsters in this game so far. They're incredibly unique and interesting compared to a lot of horror creatures in recent times. I absolutely adore the tree spider specifically though. There's just something about it that feels so freshly horrifying. It specifically is not something I've ever seen done in a game before. My theory on what the mystery monster that you showed near the start is, is that it's some sort of shapeshifter. Something that'll take the form of a normal human, possibly the days target and only reveal its true form when you get too close and attempt to attack it.

I'm totally normal about the spider and this game. Loving these devlog updates! Can't wait for more!

I love the way this devlog is Split up between the three of u

I have an idea : why dont u add different bioms to the forest so when we find a item we can use the clue to track the targets

I would love to see things like cicadas, birds, flies, fireflies, and squirrels to spice up the environment!

I found this at 2 am. I now worship Elijah and have been binging all 3 episodes. I’m so excited to see this game.. too bad I’m broke.

I'm guessing the tall guy is the hide behind, a cryptid that will follow the player but can never be seen

lore idea: the secret society working for Elijah didn't always worship him, instead, they started as a misfit group of farmers who hated what they were doing, but would continue the sacrifices to prevent bad stuff from happening. Over the years, as Elijah kept being fed by his lackeys, the secret society eventually came to worship him as he gave rewards for keeping the sacrifices on time and punishments for the late ones. Just a thought

maybe there could be people who are hostile so you have to be sneaky or a monster that is disguised as a human and when it gets close it will change into a monster. Idk just some ideas, love how the game is going!

It would be cool if some tools could be found as evidence, so that the player can choose to use it or sell it later on

split into three parts is so chill, thanks for naming the pit after me btw

I think it would be funny if you had a running joke hinted at in dialogue that the shopkeeper was a retired cult member

I had an idea for a monster that is sort of small and hard to spot and can take items on the ground and place them in different spots. The player could be able to tell if an item was taken by a sign left by the monster like it leaving fur on the ground. Maybe it's model could resemble a rat or a mouse.

I think there should be a creature that will follow you around, but when you try to look at him, he will hide behind a tree or rock. And if you go to long without seeing him, he will alert another creature about your position.

This game is gonna be sooooo amazing!!!! You guys are cookin up so hard!!!!!

My pookie is called Elijah, from now on he is known as the pit

Jerma is going to have a field day

feedback for the wolf thingy that plays dead: make his smile a little smaller

Loving the gift shop idea, maybe you could add upgrades or different gloves, you get once you reach a certain number of sacrifices, also did guys think about like interactions between the different monsters and entities you are adding , would be cool to see if you have anything planned for it

There should be some creatures that can help you, maybe a mole the can give you stuff in exchange for other stuff like food and trash

great editing i love the edits specificly sound like re2 save room spider dance S tier music choices

You guys should make a monster that pretends to be the victim then like when you get close to it it changes into a scary monster like a skin walker then chases you

The spider is awesome! Great devlog as always

I love how they explain their game HAHAHA

The members in the base look cute! I like them!

This game looks amazing so far, keep up the great work!

As a huge fan of detective games and horror I am super excited for this! If you need anymore developers with AAA experience, I'm currently open to work.

I found this channel at the start of today and at the end of the day... New video.

ok cool, now add a love triangle rivalry for Elijah between other clans men

i was watching the video peacefully and then i realized i was vibing with the dancing spider at the end of the video💀 does it also dance when it eats the player?

I feel like this would be perfect with multiplayer

7:58 kankan my goat

8:24 THE SUBTITLES 💀

I think the webs should probably be retextured to connect together maybe

FINALLY, A NEW DEVLOG!!

I found ur vid while playing KZfaq be an Im so in love with ur content and the game so far! Keep up the good work! :>

i cant wait to play this game

6:33 they have bodies 😭

Add saul goodman face to the shop keeper for the people that clip out of bounds

Nice creature design 👍

just a suggestion, if you guys get to implement the hud animations like, animating the players image hands, can you make it so that the player stabs the victim in the back like the spy does in Team Fortress2, it would be a nice reference and soo satersflying to do.

Honestly, just randomly found this one TikTok and got attached. The only advice I can give to you is for people who can't read. Can you put Text-to-speech? So you can read the items also if you all put it on PS4, I'll play It. I love playing. Cartoon kind of horror games, especially if it's a game that many people don't know of be awesome.Keep up the good work.Hope everything goes well even if I can't play It.I enjoy watching you all make it❤❤❤

How admirable.

Smile monsters are outdated, make the smile more subtle or change it with half a jaw

If you have time once you finish the game you should make a port of the game to vr

1:42 remove the eyes and it's going to be 10x better

This horror game is looking great! This may be completely off topic, but I was wondering how you make your videos, like what application you use, and if there is a guide to use it. Iv been trying to find a way to make a youtube channel but all animation/recording software I find is made for professionals who want to make disney-level quality movies, but I personally like your style so much better. Even if its just a completely unedited recording of you constructing your next video, that would be incredibly informative.

would be cool to see procedural animation, and maybe a centipede monster

hmm... all i heard was *CRONCTH* ... Yummy spider, and ths hole sems like a great pool

I might sound insane and stupid with this idea but what if the roadkill monster was behind the players car at day implying they hit it and its comming for revange at night when its alive again

I'm hyped for this

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

Question ? 8:44 are you guys going to use a second viewport for tools to stop the clipping or no draw distance check on the materirial for it ?

Cale the Worms Graber pls

what about a bio for the monsters

I love this indie horror game! It looks so weird. Any idea about the future of this game in general or what about What You guys are trying to do with your objective? I follow your socials. Thank You so much! Looking forward to see more

Is there a carry limit on the player for all these acquired possessions? I just watched a clip of the player character picking up a golf club, a guitar AND a metal detector lol

I like the spider

Lets gooo!

Finally!

YES!!!!

epic!!

Is this on steam, cause I can’t find it and if I could I would instantly Wishlist it

And slowly shorten the primiter wich the target is in ( sry im not english

I love you so much, Isaac, you are my best game designer

how would one join a potential playtest?

Elijah Rule34 💀

Nice friends, keep it up

Can you go over the sound design?

I think you should have an animation instead of a Flashbang, as that'd be annoying to play with in a darker setting

Will it be steam deck compatable

Will there be manhunt style gore?

left handed mode pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease literally just mirror the hand stuff idrc i just neeeed it

multiplayer?

Put the animation at the end of the video onto the game

I love you all, friends

I love you all

I Think Your Nuts
