Very nice!

nice game, wish it were longer

Nice Game!! 

Not really a lot to do but holy hell what a great atmosphere this had and looked fantastic.

Interesting game. Graphics were fantastic and the story was short and sweet. I loved the hallway section as well !

I made a video on your game if you're interested :)

What a very beautiful game this was! I so wish it was longer though . Great  job ! Your game is 3rd and starts at 08:38

Great graphics and the game is very good! I played on my channel :)

So very cheap and short but what can you expect the ending the twist perfect the song it all came together as it happened I wasn't scared more of a smile and a big OF COURSE it makes sense super sad good job.

At first, I was going to comment on the lack of story and gameplay, but seeing as how the game was done as a final exam for a gaming class, I can see how story and gameplay weren't important as being able to simply program and develop a game.

That said, there's not much to Outbreak other than graphics and ambiance. You do get a bit of uneasiness (at least, I did) because of the interior of the house, lack of ambient sound, and lack of lighting. These "lack ofs" blend well together to create an anticipated fight-or-flight response because you feel like someone (or something) is around somewhere. 

A couple of things I can critique is the absence of in-game instructions and inaccurate Itch.io description. As I mentioned, there isn't much of a story, but the Itch.io description stated the protagonist lost a son, whereas the game suggests it was a daughter. This has nothing to do with critiquing the game, rather the inaccuracy of the description on Itch.io; I was just a bit confused during the video. The developer could've also added a quick look at controls and instructions in the game. I only realized after playing that doors could be opened by simply pushing them instead of pressing a key or the mouse button. Had this been shown in the game instead of described in the description on the Itch.io page, I would've uncovered more of the house and seen the daughter and wife sleeping on their beds. It's ironic how I picked up on the inaccuracy in the description about the son yet I somehow ignored the control instructions.

If you want something short on your channel or to play, or something to fill time for a 3 Scary Games compilation, Outbreak is recommended.

Watch video for REAL opinion!

GAMEPLAY WALKTHROUGH

Hey, the graphics were great, did not understand the story, it could have been expanded and explained more, with an objective.

this game has a good premise but something about it just wasnt scary to me mabye its the fact that the scary things are humans but it didnt really get me also for all the content creators there is a copyright song at the end so be warned if you want to see the video i made on this game here is the link

if you watched consider subscribing (its free) and i apreciate you 

(Spoiler warning dont read this if you havent played this is a question to the developer) Is this supposed to be like the mother got infected? Because i am a tad bit confused on how the whole story plays out. Great game btw

The game was very smooth and good looking. I'm pretty sure I have the world record for speed running this game too lmao.

It might be a short game but it still gave me a good little scare! the game looks great and the sounds build a spooky atmosphere, well done! :D Game play starts at 7:24 if interested :)

First thing i gotta highligh is the ending music... Laughed so hard i don't know what the hell was going on. Then, quality was really great!

ahh! i love this, though it's quite depressing. something about this gives me a sense of deja vu which to me is pretyy unsettling...

My detective skills 🕵️ Failed me so hard 😂 starts @9:53 

Nice, short creepy game I played it as part of a horror game double and enjoyed it! 

That was some scary stuff

A short game, but not for it a bad one. I really enjoyed this few minutes!

Thanks for the game!

Nice game
