This is a really good game, I’ve seen many people play it and now with my new and improved account I’m hella gonna play it. Keep it up! And also I would like to know what sound that is on this video https://youtu.be/HZVk69cRP6g it’s at the time stamp 6:51 - 6:54. I just adore the noise and I need it 😂 thanks much love!!
Having just played the game, I love it. There were a few small issues that took me out of the experience, but otherwise it was perfect for such a short experience. The last scene with the monster (after the window scene) was a bit silly and lost me instantly, but other than that, the atmosphere was perfect, the first time i saw the monster i said out loud "nope nope nope" and tried to hide. The sounds other than the radio had me on edge, i felt uncomfortable walking out of the room for the first time, since i didnt know what to expect. Great job man!
Hey, thank you very much for your comment and for playing ! :)
Yes, I did the last scene pretty quickly :/ but it was mainly for the meaning ! I'm glad you were scared, a lots of people were scared with it's first appearcance ahah
What issues took you out of the experience except the ones you told me ? I'm actually working on a big update so I take notes as much as I can.
I love that moment when you open the door and it's just standing there in the dark. Ugh soo creepy! This is a pretty straight-forward horror experience with, of course, a few spooks. My only suggestion is to make sure you give the player objectives and instructions on what to do, instead of the gameplay being a big guessing game.
I liked this short horror experience. I really enjoyed the tiny foot on the monster. haha. I looked up the song Suffren and I can't find it, did you make it up? Anyways, thanks for making this game! I had fun.
Really enjoyed your fun little horror Daedalvs Studio. Some nice tension built. I enjoy horror's that work on suspense, and building a sense of dread of a jumpscare but not actually resorting to cheap tactics. The window at the end was very nicely done, no over the top noise or flash effect... just there. Very creepy.
Minor criticism would be the radio music. I know there is the option to turn it off but it removed an element of horror for me. It was a comfort blanket I didn't want. If the music was a lot quieter it might have been OK.
Also seemed quite confusing that there was flickering lights down on floor -1, but all the time you have to go to RC. What is RC by the way? Hopefully I don't end up seeming too stupid asking that lol.
Great game though, well done. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Hey ! Thank you very much for playing and for the feedback ! I really appreciate
So, yeah I'm not really into jumpscares, I avoid that but I find cool that things like at the end of your video (which made me really laugh ahah) works on some people !
For the radio music I had a lots of comments and I agree with you and I already lowered the volume for the future update. It was a choice I made because, I like the contrast we have between when the music is on and the complete silence when we turn it off :)
For RC, I see that someone found what it means in your comment section !
I really enjoyed this! I really liked how there's not really any jump scares and you guys just made our imaginations fill in the quiet times. Where could it be lurking? lol Great game! *Edit* I forgot! Thanks for putting the thumbnails and the logo png image in with it, that was supper cool of you!! I've never seen anyone do that before and that is much appreciated! 👍👍
First off, thank you for using non-copyrighted music! I'm a fan of these types of games, where the creature isn't jumpscaring you constantly. He stalks you, keeping you wondering on where he is. I wish I would've explored more in my playthrough, so I may go back if there is a lot I missed. Overall I really enjoyed this game! Keep up the great work.
Oops I didn't read the fine print. I just downloaded immediately. I turned off the in game music. Super protective of my account. Anyway, gave it a go and it was an interesting game. Great Job with your first game :D
G'day Daedalvs Studios, after playing through your Game Jam submissions I thought I may as well force my opinions and observations upon you, so let's get started.
Pros
- Unreal Engine 4 looks great, the game stands out among the crowd simply for visual appeal and good use of assets.
- Even though it wasn't explained as well as it could of been the cardboard boxes were intriguing if a bit silly.
- Good taste in music
Cons
- The application running for the game isn't called "Between These Walls" but is instead referred to as "Unreal Engine 4 Development Kit"
- Showing the monster very early on and having it look like any run of the mill horror villain doesn't add anything to the "psychological" aspects of the game.
- By the end of the story, the boxes become comic relief, maybe clear up exactly what the monster is capable of doing to your character through the use of notes or other storytelling devices, having your player guess can only get you so far.
Other than all that stuff it was honestly a pretty refreshing experience, it felt like there was an actual team behind it that wanted to create not just replicate. I look forward to your future games. Have a good one guys.
Also, I create cynical let's play's, feel free to take part in this review but on the rails.
Hi ! Thank you very much for playing my game and taking your time for a feedback.
First of all, I'm alone at Daedalvs Studio. It's my studio and I did everything in the game except 2 posters and the 2 tracks of the radio and the end credit track which are by friends.
For the cardboxes and the rest, I wanted to let people theories about the game and what they thought about it even if there's a little story behind all cardboxes/monster. And you nailed it ! Just, at the end the monster don't kill the character, it was a way to say that he is part of us. The character always move out to escape his problems in life and never try to resolves these. Wherever you go, your problems will always be there with you if you don't solve these. :)
For the name of the application, it might be because I packaged it as a developper version and not "shipping" version. I'll correct that for the update !
For the monster, I wanted to show him early because the game is a walking sim and you play it for like 5 minutes, so I wanted that some stuff append sometimes. Anyway, it's a really short game I did in 2 weeks so I tried to put some event in the game, event minor ones. But there will be some changes in the future update as I said before.
But generally, I'm ok with you, it's better not to show the monster so early in a game
Finally, I didn't meant to create a PT-ish game, I did this loop to destabilize the player/character always to say that he can't escape everything for the rest of his life.
As I said (again) before, I am working on a big update with better textures/3d models and expand/work more on the lore. There will be more notes to explain more things with the monsters, the parents and the character.
For the cardboxes, it's a way to represent the fact to move out. When we think about a boxes, generally, we think about that, that's why I used boxes. The game is a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out again and again.
Interesting short psychological horror game. I'm so curious as to what was invited into this guy's life that haunts him so. Is it devil worshipping as hinted by the posters of the movie "Hereditary". Great first game man.
So, RC means "rez-de-chaussée" in french (Ground Floor) !
And for the meaning, it's a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out from apartment to another. The boxes represent the fact to move out and the creature, the allegorie. These will always be there with you if you don't try to solves these problems you have instead of flee. :)
So, it was on purpose the fact the fridge was turned but not intentional that it was back to normal in the level after ahah
Hello! I recently played your game and really enjoyed it! I used in part of my latest "3 scary games" youtube video. Thanks a bunch for making a fun game =)
It was okay. The performance was horrible... The environment was pretty alright but you could've done more with the other rooms (upstairs, downstairs). I know it's not supposed to be a long game. The sounds were mediocre and the monster design was pretty trashy. Though I did get chills when you wanted to exit your appartment but kept waking up in your room and then the radio changes everytime you wake up, that's what I really liked. But it has too few horror elements imo and I did kind of expected a jumpscare but there was no. For such short game and especially for that kind of a game, a jumpscare would've been good.
Well..it is really laggy. I'm not sure if it could be my PC since my specs are pretty good:
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050ti 4GB
RAM: 16GB
So I doubt that the lag is caused by my PC. But what I mean is that it's low FPS. And yes I understand that you prefer working on atmosphere, it's just really hard to do that with a short game...but nothing's impossible! I'm looking forward to your remake! :)
This game was fun and it really had a horror vibe to it, really different then your basic jumpscare games out there I cant wait to see what you have coming up next thanks for the great game
Hey thank you for your feedback at the end. I already watched your video a couple of days ago but totally forgot to comment on it so here it is :
I used the boxes because it's the best way to represent when you move out. When we think about a boxes, generally we think about that, that's why I used boxes. The game is a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out again and again.
I'm working on a future update with more lore, content, etc. :) Thank you for taking your time playing it !
Hey ! I saw your video some days ago but forgot to comment. Your video made me laugh :)
The fact there's no walls, it's because it's supposed to be a "dream sequence" (maybe ? hehe)
Shame, at the end, the last level before the cinematic you missed a little something through the window ;)
Your interpretation at the end was really interesting ! The game is actually a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out again and again. It will always be there with you if you don't try to solve these.
One of the games i played was this one, and i found it super interesting, i think you should add more, maybe more environments as well. I loved how smooth the game performed.
I will definitely check out Hereditary. The reason that i'm not a huge fan of modern horror movies is because of the esoteric messages. Old horror movies have them as well but i can agree with those a lot. Midsommar for exemple is a huge subversion of what the tradition actually is and while it might be a fun horror movie on the surface, i could feel my ancestors rolling in their grave. Writers and directors can sometimes do these things by accident (or for creative and story reasons) and i can turn my brain off and enjoy the movie nonetheless but some writers and directors subvert intentionally and have a clear message. In those cases i don't want to pay for the movie to sponsor their political activism. This is ofcourse subjective and my personal reason why i do or don't support certain things monetarily.
Nice to know that i was close about your game, checked out other gameplays and comments and i think that i have the full picture now! Great game!!
Not bad. I especially liked the music and sound effects which are important to build atmosphere.
Something that might be improved upon: The objectives weren't always clear at first. I wasn't sure what happened when went through the door labeled "RC." I'm guessing that I went to work? Maybe adding some dialogue as to what the character wants/needs might help with that.
If ever you decided to expand upon the project or create a new one, here are a couple things I think the game could be enhanced with: More interactable items (like the computer, the fridge, stove, sink, bathroom, etc.). Maybe even interacting with the neighbors, or being able to hear footsteps/talking/tv above or next to your apartment.
Hey thank you for your feedback and for playin it ! So yes, I planned to expand the game and already planned adding everything you said, I agree with you, it definitely need more interaction. I started to add some !
I found the game to be a bit funny because of the boxes that kept spawning in as the game progressed, but the monster itself to be very creepy. I liked the story that was being built up, but it sort of felt forced.. Then again, it is just a personal preference for me to have more story in these games.. Anyway, I enjoyed it. The music in the radio built up a good atmosphere, and the hallucination idea was very-well done! One issue I had was while reading the text one part would overlay the words, making it impossible to read. The other would be a personal preference of the slight lack of background music, although it does deliver a good creep factor to the game. I do wish it was a bit longer, maybe then it could build up more with his parents and such.. Either way, I can't complain as I enjoyed my time anyway! 4/5 from me!
Thanks for playing my game man ! You're kind of destabilized, that's why there's always boxes moving everywhere. The boxes are a representation of moving out in the collective unconscious. :)
The game is a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out again and again. Wherever you go, it'll always be there with you.
I'm actually working on an update to polish the game and add more content/Story. I understand, a lots of people wanted more story but, it was kind of hard in 2 weeks to do more :)
For the issue, I saw that a multiple times and will correct it but thanks for your feedback !
Great video too, you made me laugh when the monster was in the apartment and you spammed the neighboor's doors
Very creepy game and a very creepy experience. I enjoyed this game. I did a playthrough of this game and I will link it below if you are interested in watching.
Hey ! Thanks for playing ! For the door that can't be closed, I'll correct that for the update ;) Glad you liked the game and hope the creature didn't haunt you during your sleep
great game! I like how everytime you wake up, somethings change, giving the pt vibes, and encountering the monster was very terrifying, overall, i rate it 7/10
Hey, thanks for playing :) So, RC means "rez-de-chaussée" in french (It's the ground floor) For the "dream sequence" it was intentionnal that there was no wall, to confuse people like "are we dreaming or is it real life ?" that's why you can "go to sleep" during this sequence.
Also, spoiler, there's no basement, the door is closed .. but will be open in the future update ;)
Thank you very much ! (I saw a little bug with the text in the dream sequence ! I'll correct all these bugs)
I'm not really into jumpscares, I prefer working on the atmosphere, I find that scarier ;) Silent jumpscares is a cool concept and better that simple jumpscares
This was REALLY good! Has a nice slow buildup of tension leading up to encountering a genuinely terrifying monster in a subtle, yet extremely creepy way. I love games like that aren't in your face when it comes to scares. Fantastic game!
Hey, sorry for this issue. Honestly, I really don't know where it can come from. The game work on many others computer but I didn't optimizedit so it can come from here.
But for the update I'll try to optimize it as much as I can and put settings too !

Hey, thank you very much for playing !
The game is still in development, I'm improving the graphism, the lore, etc :)
Glad you liked it
This is a really good game, I’ve seen many people play it and now with my new and improved account I’m hella gonna play it. Keep it up! And also I would like to know what sound that is on this video https://youtu.be/HZVk69cRP6g it’s at the time stamp 6:51 - 6:54. I just adore the noise and I need it 😂 thanks much love!!
Hey man,
Thank you very much, I posted a comment on your video :)

Thank you very much, but I must say it’s not my video it’s Daz Blacks Video his Twitter is) https://mobile.twitter.com/daz_black
But thank you very much for getting back to me!

I liked this short horror experience. I really enjoyed the tiny foot on the monster. haha. I looked up the song Suffren and I can't find it, did you make it up? Anyways, thanks for making this game! I had fun.
Ahah everyone seems to like his tiny foot !
Süffren is the artist name of my friend who did the songs on the radio and the credit one too :)
Thank you for playing it !

love your game and the slendy boi !
Cool first game!
Fun little game!

Hello! I recently played your game and really enjoyed it! I used in part of my latest "3 scary games" youtube video. Thanks a bunch for making a fun game =)
Cool and Spooky!
It was okay.
The performance was horrible...
The environment was pretty alright but you could've done more with the other rooms (upstairs, downstairs). I know it's not supposed to be a long game.

I still thank you for this experience :)
4/10
Hey, thanks for taking time to play my game.
What do you mean by performance ?
Glad you still had some chills for that part.
For the rest, I already know that since I did things quickly because I had 2 weeks for the game jam. That's why I'm reworking on it :)
Also, for the jumpscares, I try to avoid that. I'm not really into jumpscares, I prefer working on atmospheres !
I work hard on doing a good update and expand the game.
Thanks for your feedback.
Well..it is really laggy. I'm not sure if it could be my PC since my specs are pretty good:
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050ti 4GB
RAM: 16GB
So I doubt that the lag is caused by my PC. But what I mean is that it's low FPS.
And yes I understand that you prefer working on atmosphere, it's just really hard to do that with a short game...but nothing's impossible!
I'm looking forward to your remake! :)
I can understand, I absolutely didn't optimize it, but it's strange since it worked on many others PC.
Sure but I wanted to try and I'm glad to have finish a little game for a game jam.
Now I have more time so I can work better on it !
Pretty good. Some spooky weirdness going on here.
Thanks for playing man !
I try to avoid jumpscares and build atmospheres.
Also, RC means "rez-de-chaussée" in french (Ground Floor)
It was a good game and you did a amazing job on the atmosphere and thanks for telling me what RC was for
Made a video on this game, it wasn't too bad for a Game Jam game! Thanks for making it!
Hey thank you for your feedback at the end. I already watched your video a couple of days ago but totally forgot to comment on it so here it is :
I used the boxes because it's the best way to represent when you move out. When we think about a boxes, generally we think about that, that's why I used boxes. The game is a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out again and again.
I'm working on a future update with more lore, content, etc. :)
Thank you for taking your time playing it !
That makes sense! Keep up the good work! I'll be on the look out!
I'm never moving into a new apartment ever again lol This was great and super creepy! Well done!
Hey ! I saw your video some days ago but forgot to comment.
Your video made me laugh :)
The fact there's no walls, it's because it's supposed to be a "dream sequence" (maybe ? hehe)
Shame, at the end, the last level before the cinematic you missed a little something through the window ;)
Your interpretation at the end was really interesting !
The game is actually a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out again and again. It will always be there with you if you don't try to solve these.
Thanks for playing !
One of the games i played was this one, and i found it super interesting, i think you should add more, maybe more environments as well. I loved how smooth the game performed.
Very nice haunted apartment sim. Loved that you didn't resort to constant jumpscares; atmosphere was great.
Creepy atmosphere! Pretty interesting for a first game, looking forward towards your future projects!
Thanks for playing !
I prefer old horror movies too but there's some cool new horror movies too (like Hereditary), just not as much as the old ones
And you're the first one to understand that there's a towel on the mirror to not look at ourself. Generally peoples don't understand
Also, shame you missed something through the window during the last level before the cinematic ;)
I'm glad you liked the game and the atmosphere !
I'm actually working on a big update since the Game Jam is finished.
And for your interpretation, you're really really near the meaning :)
Great video
Thanks, It was a pleasure !
I will definitely check out Hereditary. The reason that i'm not a huge fan of modern horror movies is because of the esoteric messages. Old horror movies have them as well but i can agree with those a lot. Midsommar for exemple is a huge subversion of what the tradition actually is and while it might be a fun horror movie on the surface, i could feel my ancestors rolling in their grave.

Hey thank you for your feedback and for playin it !
So yes, I planned to expand the game and already planned adding everything you said, I agree with you, it definitely need more interaction. I started to add some !
Had a lot of fun with this one. Captures the psych aspect of psych-horror pretty well! Gameplay here. More thoughts at the end :D Keep it up
, Daedalvs
Was a fun short horror game. After Ibplayed the game originally I watched others videos. I definitly missed a lot lol
Ahah yes, I see that, especially when you're in the last loop in the apartment, through one of the windows ;)
Thanks for playing !
Creepily Funny..
I found the game to be a bit funny because of the boxes that kept spawning in as the game progressed, but the monster itself to be very creepy. I liked the story that was being built up, but it sort of felt forced.. Then again, it is just a personal preference for me to have more story in these games.. Anyway, I enjoyed it.

You're kind of destabilized, that's why there's always boxes moving everywhere. The boxes are a representation of moving out in the collective unconscious. :)
The game is a representation of trying to escape problems by moving out again and again. Wherever you go, it'll always be there with you.
I'm actually working on an update to polish the game and add more content/Story. I understand, a lots of people wanted more story but, it was kind of hard in 2 weeks to do more :)
For the issue, I saw that a multiple times and will correct it but thanks for your feedback !
Great video too, you made me laugh when the monster was in the apartment and you spammed the neighboor's doors
Very creepy game and a very creepy experience. I enjoyed this game. I did a playthrough of this game and I will link it below if you are interested in watching.
Hey ! Thanks for playing !
For the door that can't be closed, I'll correct that for the update ;)
Glad you liked the game and hope the creature didn't haunt you during your sleep
great game! I like how everytime you wake up, somethings change, giving the pt vibes, and encountering the monster was very terrifying, overall, i rate it 7/10
Hey, thanks for playing :)
So, RC means "rez-de-chaussée" in french (It's the ground floor)
For the "dream sequence" it was intentionnal that there was no wall, to confuse people like "are we dreaming or is it real life ?" that's why you can "go to sleep" during this sequence.
Also, spoiler, there's no basement, the door is closed .. but will be open in the future update ;)
I loved it <3 the whole aspect of silent jumpscares from Ari Aster's movies! Here's my little playthrough (Polish language) Cheers!
Thank you very much ! (I saw a little bug with the text in the dream sequence ! I'll correct all these bugs)
I'm not really into jumpscares, I prefer working on the atmosphere, I find that scarier ;)
Silent jumpscares is a cool concept and better that simple jumpscares
I totally agree with you :) Nice to know that you actually watched the playthrough and noticed a bug! :) Cheers!
This was REALLY good! Has a nice slow buildup of tension leading up to encountering a genuinely terrifying monster in a subtle, yet extremely creepy way. I love games like that aren't in your face when it comes to scares. Fantastic game!
I wish it was had more jumpscares but really nice job guys!
Hey, thanks for playing !
I'm not really into jumpscares, I prefer working on the ambiance of a game.
But glad you still liked the game :)
This hangs on the loading screen.
Hey, sorry for this issue. Honestly, I really don't know where it can come from. The game work on many others computer but I didn't optimizedit so it can come from here.
But for the update I'll try to optimize it as much as I can and put settings too !
Cool thanks
