Catharsis - Free Alpha Version of game inspired of Lucid Dreaming

Hi all!

I don't know if this is current part of forum for this, but I hope so ;)

I'm Nirvan and I want to show you my horror/nightmare game.
I added to game references from Lucid Dreams and globally I was inspired by this to make this game.
If you're interested you can check extended info and download link here:

( I am new member of forum so I can't post links :(, put dots in spaces )

What do you thinking about my idea? I was thinking about abandoning this project, because it doesn't went through Microsoft's Imagine Cup competition. But people are very impressed by my idea and I'm really surprised.
I wonder how will react people who know about Lucid Dreaming :D

Thanks!

Just played through it, it's actually really neat, I've never played anything like it. It was really trippy and startled me quite a bit, definitely seems like a nightmare I could have. :P I'm interested in seeing the completed game once it's done. It'll definitely need a bit of work though, I had quite a few glitchy moments and the controls are a little difficult to work with, but overall it was pretty good. Nice work :)

Thanks! Yes, controls are difficult but I wanted to make mechanics where player will really use hands. It's my first project in unity so I'll learn more to make it easier :) Last day I had dream in my game and it gave me new ideas for levels hahah :D

I played it through and I loved it, it's creepy yet you have hope of finding the exit. I really like the changing when you look away and then back, the scene where

Spoiler for Game spoiler:

you read the book saying "Don't look at them, it only makes them faster... and I opened the door seeing a statue I said "NOPE!" slammed it shut and ran for the stairway. Awesome!
