Me and my friends actually enjoyed the game a lot. Even though we had a few struggles with the keys and the doors we got a lot of good laughs out of it. Being chased down by the principle is also a pretty fun experience. We are also in the Discord Server and the Dev is really nice so we were actually quite happy with how the game turned out to be.

Honestly, I think the game has potential! Have been playtesting the game for several hours with my friends and any time we reported a bug to the discord or left some suggestions, the dev immediately looked into it and fixed it.
If you and your friends enjoy games with mechanics like lunch lady, you will enjoy this game.
The bugs are minor, the graphic is good and the dev is putting a lot of work into it! there is only one map at the moment, which is very big so you might get lost - walking into the principal suddenly and not knowing where to go or how to run from him is fun.
Hoping for more maps in the future and further development since i do see lots of potential!

So we had the joy of test playing the game and it was a lot of fun. The game has great potential and mechanics that I love very much. Running around, looking for stuff, avoiding the principal; just my kind of game. It still has some bugs here and there; but the Dev is just a sweetheart and any suggestion and bug reports in the discord will be taken care of. It still only has one map, but two possible endings. I do hope more content is to come.

Just played it with 2 friends and already expected not much but it was still disappointing.
the game looks unfinished or very rushed. Just to quote a friend "it was the worst game I've had so far on my PC".
First of all when you start the game it gives you 2 options to select from with the exact same name "play FREAKOUT". idk why a second one but who knows. Then after you select one of them (it happens with both options btw) it starts automatically SteamVR :I the game automatically starting steamvr already made it for one of my friends extremely buggy, the screen turned black and it made a bunch of coursers. That only got fixed by uninstalling steamvr. Another issue my other friend had was that he couldn't start the game at all and had to add -dx11 to the startup command line.
I don't really see how the game is 8GB big. the settings variation is also not much sadly and i wish there was an option to turn off motion blur.
The distance of the interact courser is way too high and we saw the finger to interact already before anything was even close enough to interact with.
Also you cannot change the key bindings and dropping an item is on X which feels wrong.
the map is huge and too big for downed people. when you get caught by the guy you will be stuck in a very long death sequence and have 9 seconds until someone picks you up, which is with a map in that size impossible.
You cant see shit as a goat and you cant walk backwards.
the AI of the guy also seems a bit simple as he walks into walls, through doors, walks in circles or just disappears.
It all takes very long to find the cage keys for each goat. I don't mind games taking long but you usually get chased by a smarter AI and challenged somewhat fairly... so it gets quickly boring.
I don't like comparing games but this really looks like a cheap copy of another 2 old games.
the idea is there but there needs to be done a lot before it should be published as finished game. too bad its time to refund another game :<
