I like the concept of found footage, but the game is buggy. The car got stuck in a rock at the very beginning and I didn't bother to reload the level. Need a bit more polishing, imho.

About This Game
OWLMAN is a retro-stylized, first-person horror game played through the lens of a motorist documenting their favorite getaway. As they proceed back down the mountain and the sun starts to set, it becomes clear something is wrong.
Explore an atmospheric open-world forest and evade the OWLMAN, among other threats.
Features
- VHS, retro aesthetic.
- Linear story taking place across a series of tapes.
- Infinite Chase Mode: See how long you can evade the Owlman and explore the open world without the constraints of a narrative.
OWLMAN is not a you-die-you-lose sort of game. It is sometimes necessary that the characters in the narrative meet their intended fates.

I'm a bit conflicted. For $3 I could do alot worse. The game is well made, The initial horror of the unknown was very strong, but then seeing (and dying) to the big bad within the first 10 minutes really lost its tension. The fact I got to the end within 20 minutes of game play was disappointing too. I went into this blind and was hoping it was more of a longer hunter and pray horror game where you slowly go mad while it taunts you, that was the impression I got from the store page at least. In the end I'd recommend it when it goes F2P, then it is worth it for the experience. Although I do respect smaller indie devs for trying interesting ideas. Hopefully the sequel improves on this one.
A new horror VHS type game that will have you searching for some tapes of the lost family and motorist. I've only managed to find 1 tape before I was captured by the Owlman lol. I guess it was supposed to catch me since it put me in a new area where more tapes probably were but I got out of the cave and the game ended 😕. The game has some minor bugs too for now. https://youtu.be/W2J73qdC3DI
