There is a stairway in the parking garage level with absolutely ZERO lighting that is impossible to climb up without getting stuck in a corner.

the voice acting made me want to commit neck rope. its obnoxiously loud and shows no sense of dread or hopelessness, he says everything jolly as can be. sometimes it just makes no sense. example:
*walking up to a closet*
MC: "A closet? HAHA"
?????? wtf is funny or remarkable about that. what are we even saying.
couple cool shots but many of the environments felt uninspired and flat.
generally not worth the price tag when compared to many of the free/cheaper backrooms games on steam.

Very jarring visually, if it wasnt giving me a migraine I wouldnt be opposed to the walking sim but after almost an hour I just cant do anymore. Nothing has happened, I ran from door to door and havent seen anything new or exciting. Also, why does this game say its "Bodycam" when youre playing it? Thats concerning lol

LOOKS AMAZING...and I am so sick of playing the yellow walled "level 0" that most backroom games have, I like that it's not here. Now this might be a bug, but it's a welcome one: after running around a bit, the run mode is permanently on with infinite stamina. I don't have to press shift anymore to run or have to walk... by the way the walk is SOOOOO slow. My #1 pet peeve about backrooms games is the stamina. Why do we need this? I love having RUN stuck on permanently!!!

Okay so this is a frustrating one since there's clearly a lot to like. But I requested a refund after only about 30 mins due to a handful of blaring issues:
The game has some weird bug where the camera bugs if the game gets minimised at any point, camera basically drags hard down to the bottom right hand side so the character is just constantly staring at the floor, only way I've found to correct this is to fully restart the game (and checkpoints appear to restart you at the beginning of the level) Very frustrating for people who may need to do other things on their computer while playing.
The walk speed is so slow its meme worthy, either needs to be dramatically increased or remove the stamina feature and let players run as much as they like.
Nice that the game offers an option to remove the head bob, but honestly when its turned on its basically migrane inducing.
Honestly a shame since the graphics are outstanding and it appears to have a lot going for it. I'd happily repurchase the game if these issues are addressed, but for me its borderline unplayable in its current state (particularly the camera issue that comes with minimising the game at any point)
I can see the dev has announced a sequel to this game but honestly I would hope they'd address the issues with this one as a priority as I can picture it turning people off playing it altogether
