Game Improvements

Mar 16

Hi Everyone

Thank you to everyone who've provided feedback. A few people have really liked the fact that the game is quite challenging with having to really try and work out what to do and how to progress with very little hints and direction. However I have had some feedback that there needs to be more helpful clues and hints on what to do to progress further into the game

As my first project as a solo developer i'm always going to be looking at improving and making the game more enjoyable.

Over the next few months i'm going to try and add more to this game with more clues and hints to help give players more direction. Being a part time game developer I don't have a great deal of time but will work as best I can to get some new things added to the game

Demo feedback

The fov is pretty low with no way to adjust, the game starts Steam-VR, you cannot remap the controls, batteries run out way too quickly, there are not enough graphic options, and there is some strange light flickering in the distance when turning with the flashlight on. But the worst thing of all about the demo in my opinion is that you must restart the entire game when caught by the enemy. There really needs to be a way to manually save....

Game Update in Progress

Oct 25, 2023

Hey Everyone

I've been currently working on improving the Performance and Load times of The Orphanage and have made some progress which seems to be looking very good on the game running alot smoother on lower spec PC's.

Current issues were with Loading times and Frame drops which only seem to be an issue on some PC's which are 3 years old+

I have had people test on higher end PC's and installed on SSD and the game had no issues with frame drops. However the patch I am currently working on seems to be able to run the game alot smoother and loading times seem alot quicker.

I Hope to have this update out ASAP in the next few weeks as I will need to test the game alot to make sure no issues arise from all the performance and optimization tweaks.

Also being a Part Time Developer I don't have a great deal of time so please bare with me and I will announce as soon as the update is ready.

Hi Everyone As this is my first attempt at making a game and i'm fairly new to this.

questions about the boiler room gate and the books puzzle.

I was wondering in the boiler room, were are the hints for the gate combination and the hints for the book case puzzles? i only solved it because of process of elimination. but i actually would like to know how does one figure it out without having to do all that. Great game by the way. hope you're working on more to extend gameplay....
