What a great concept and style! I'm quite flabbergasted that this is from a solo dev - the sound design, graphics and atmosphere are absolutely astounding, and definitely rivals current AA or AAA games out there at the moment.
I particularly liked that each GHL has a particular style, will be interesting to see if you can flit between the worlds when you get back to the hub. If you're a fan of schlocky horror from the 80's then you'll definitely get a buzz from 'Sewer Smile.' I loved the John Carpenter reference and that each 'zone' has its own mechanisms and puzzles.
WHEN IS THE FULL GAME OUT??? SHUDDUP AND TAKE MY MONEY ALREADY!
Thanks so much for playing and for sharing on your channel! So glad you enjoyed it and love it when someone gets the John Carpenter references. Aim is to have the game out by the end of the year so I'm working like crazy on it at the moment.
Congratulations to the creators of "Dead Format" a great action-puzzle game. I'd like the creators of this game to please subscribe to my channel. Thank you. I'm really excited for your help. Best regards!
Next time be so kind to upload the game to gofile or mediafire. It took me two days to download the archive properly as it kept dropping the download too many times.
Sorry to hear that! Typically Filen is really good as it's a premium service compared to the free ones. I'll test the download speeds later and make sure the service is working correctly tho, thanks for letting me know.
This is about the coolest idea for a horror game I've come across, and it's implemented really well here. I seriously can't wait for the full game. I need more now!
Seriously amazing demo, showcasing the game's core mechanics, looks and played great, and the monsters in the game are extremely creepy. I ran into the same bug as previously reported, where the GHL couldn't be interacted with, but somehow managed to get it to work so I could complete the demo.
Thanks so much for playing! Thanks for pointing out the bug, it's good to know these things. I've already updated the demo build earlier today so hopefully others playing shouldn't get the same issue. Thanks again for checking it out and sharing on your channel.
Hi, the concept of the game is very cool and unique. I've found some bugs with the interactions. For exemple, after a reload, I was unable to interact with the puzzle that give you access to the elevator. The lever puzzle was fine, but it was impossible to interact with the second one. I had to restart the game from scratch. Same after I came back to the apartment and watched the VHS with the question mark on it. Then it was no longer possible to interact with the VHS reader to check the next one. I managed to do it by using the store box, then I tried again the VHS and it worked. It's the only kind of bug I've encountered but it was really annoying. Apart from that, the gun could be a little more responsiv, anyway, the game looks very promisiing, can't wait to see more !
Thanks very much for playing and your feedback spotting those bugs! I've managed to solve both of them so I'll be updateing the demo soon. It's wild that in months of testing those puzzles hundreds of times I've never seen that interaction issue before but at least two people saw it here within 24hours! It was a really tiny window of oppertunity when certain variables were set that caused it but thanks for pointing it out so that I was able to plug that hole.
What was feeling unresponsive about the gun to you? Was it the aiming feeling sluggish or perhaps the fire rate too slow?
Great game so far! I love the realism and old school film style horror elements you've added, I'm actually blown away. As stated before, I had an issue with the pressure guauge and was unable to continue, here is my playthrough and where I got stuck. Thanks for sharing the game, and please let me know how to proceed, thanks!
Thanks for pointing out the issue. I've managed to reproduce it on random rare occasions but still not sure what is causing it. I'll update the build as soon as I manage to fix it.
Sorry you're having an issue. I've just double checked the file and they are extracting correctly so it was most likely because your download did not complete. If you try again it should work fine.

No prob, I'm glad it helped. For the gun, it was the speed for aiming and shooting. It was a bit frustrating, but it's not a big issue.
Thanks! No worries, it really helps me to know how it feels for other people.
