The Entity

So The Entity is so far just a game where you have to find keys to open all the rooms in the house, your goal is to get into the basement but when you input the code on the first padlock the game doesn't allow you to move you can flick the lights on and off our your cell phone flashlight on and off so will have to wait till it's been fixed but will give it another go.

The Entity: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly - a textbook case of what happens when REAL play testing is underrated and overlooked. The Good: +The use of a cellphone as a light source, with battery management, was a nice alternative to the standard flashlight trope. +Use of the generator as a pseudo game timer was also somewhat unique for this genre of game. +The interior cells and assets for the house for the most part looked decent and consistent. The Bad: -The couch in the basement was bright magenta (either it's texture was corrupt or just missing altogether). -There is bad clipping between objects and walls; between objects and player; between environment and interactive objects. -The menu UI is cumbersome and clumsy, both on the start screen and especially in game. -There was inconsistent use of object trigger boundaries; some (notes, light switches) are positional (you just need to stand near their onTrigger box), whereas others are directional (you need to be looking AT the keys t...

Short but good game. I have a few gripes though, and did find some bugs: -Sound levels are too low; I need to crank my volume up to 100% to hear anything well -Price tag might be just a tad too much given the games length -Personally didn't like the enemy design, looks too much like a recycled design from the Aliens franchise -Nowhere near dark enough; it should be pitch dark everywhere there is no light source (I did turn the vibrance setting on my card all the way up so that might explain how I was able to see through darkness so well) -When starting a new game, sometimes the game glitches out and you only see a black screen until you hit the escape key twice -Graphics quality option keeps resetting itself to ultra; you need to set it first from the launcher, then set it again from the main menu -Turning on ALL the lights in the house barely sucks up generator power; imo having them all on should suck up the power within minutes -Your characters idle animation when looking down makes...

I played through the game three times and overall wasn't all that impressed. I experienced multiple bugs that either dampened the gameplay or didn't allow me to progress at all. This would have been worth the time spent if it was free, but paying $5 is a little much for a buggy game with a weak narrative and an unenthused bad guy. Hopefully the can fix this game, maybe then I'd give it another shot.

[h1]First look video (gameplay + commentary):[/h1] https://youtu.be/X7qiUW2jbN8 [h1]Quick summary[/h1] The Entity has an interesting premise but gameplay-wise needs quite a few fixes and fine tuning. If Steam offered a "neutral" rating we'd probably go with that until some solid changes were made. [h1]Longer review[/h1] Story-wise, you wake up in a house at 3am, and it turns out to be your late grandmother's that you're now living in, apparently alone. Your grandma has left notes all over the place for you to find which is how you learn about a creature somewhere in the basement. The Entity gives you two objectives to start: find a bunch of keys and get in the basement. In practice, this means roaming all over a rather large home with a great deal of bedrooms that start to look very similar and comb each space for keys and notes. Most things in the house can't be interacted with. Time is also a limiting factor -- the creature will kill you if your house runs out of power, and your ...

Finding it really frustrating to play this game. There's no in-game map which makes it hard to determine if/where you need to look for keys. The controls are very clunky and it's difficult to interact with lights and door as they will show up together. The premise of the game has some promise but it needs work.

Game was done in less than an hour. Gameplay felt clunky and the challenge simply wasnt there. I expect more when I pay $5 for a game. Got a glitch where I could see one of the dream triggers before I walked into it. I get it, you guys are probably new to the game scene and you've got to build up your textures but this is not the way to make a splash in the world. Shame on you.
