Gameplay

The gameplay itself is extremely simple and that is completely fine as it's meant to be a quick experience.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Look, it's a small little survival horror game that is not unlike a round of COD zombies with PSX style graphics and even added film grain to make it feel like I'm playing through a budget 80's horror flick which I adore and can tell the dev had fun with, especially with all the voice lines being one guy and silly and fun.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
This game is fine in the beginning, gets a huge difficulty spike towards the end, then the final level does some really cool gameplay changes.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Story was ok and the voice acting wasn't that bad lol levels were short so long as you know what you are doing and I would of beaten the game in under an hour if I didn't struggle on the final level so much since health was so rare.
