Probably weirdest gaming experience I've had. Something disturding and harsh but pretty interesting to play, as you just holding w and watching stuff. Have no idea what author is trying to say but do not really care)
This felt like a bad trip. 90% of the time I spent playing this game I had chills. Haven't had such sensory response to a game or movie in a while. Immersive experience, visceral, harsh, turbulent, disturbing, mind-bending. Both visually and aurally. Incredible psychedelic horror.
Astounding experience. As someone who created an intense, agressive and loud game myself, I enjoyed this a lot, you have no idea. This is what I crave for. This is what I want, what I need. The kind of experience that inspires me and gets that passion burning. Thank you.
I really loved this! The way the visuals went together with the soundtrack was super cool and I've never really seen anything like it before. Can't wait to play more of your work :)
this game was what i expected, and yet not. intense, heavy and pulsing. a kaleidoscope of screaming hatred and wriggling flesh. it moved me to tears, because i know the feeling it conveys well. and because what it showed me, reflected back, was grotesque.
i doubt it was intended, but this game inspires me to want to live.
Yeeeeah. Cool game, I don't agree with people that complained about the loud noises :) But there could be something that shows you where to go especially in the (i think) Third Level with those big monuments. I couldn't figure out what to do next. And maybe a little introduction story, just to get people interested?
edit: I was near the cemetery tombstone but I didn't fell over, just watched someone playing it to know what to do
edit2: managed to finish the game, it's fucked up, I like it, Merzbow is proud
I hate to be a real stick in the mud but uh. I didn't like this game at all... Like, I love weird and obscure/disturbing games, but coming in right away with flashing lights, loud screams, and bass boosted noise just turned me off really quickly to it. not to mention the random room with the distorted porn felt out of place... There was perhaps a good message behind this, but I couldn't understand it because I was too busy loweing my volume and rolling my eyes at the "sacrifices" sorry.
It’s understandable and I was expecting it. Not everybody enjoy harsh noise and power electronics and the objective was to adapt these forms of sonic assault as a game. Thank you for taking the time to write!
Worst fucking game I've ever played, don't do this shit again. Wasted 300 dollars in expectation of a great product before even playing it and I could tell 4 seconds in that it was the worst shit I've ever experienced in my life. I want a refund. Eat shit. Go die.
This is an amazing experience. A surrealistic world. Where the goal is not to win but to feel, to get a tripy visual stimulation. With a careful picked color pallet, Moving around the scenes give you the ability to be part of the artistic presentation. The music of Un Regard Froid is also a great part of the ambiance. The drone ambient music is hypnotic. The senses of whoever decide to enter the universe of Acephalic will be stimulated and will let you think. Loved Acephalic for the poetic reflection and the sensory experience it brings. Interactable art piece. I will enter again the world of Acephalic and hope that this work is the beginning for the artist to come up with more unique creations in the future.
An absolute trip. Pretty remarkable for your first developed game tho
I had a crash in one of the level transitions, and the bass slamming my eardrums started to wear out it's welcome to the point that I turned the game audio basically off. I know that wasn't your intended direction but when there's EXTREME BASS NONSTOP NEVERENDING BAAAAAANG for more than 10-15 seconds it overtakes any experience you are creating and the player will try to get away from the sound, either by walking away from it or turning the sound off. Food for thought
Thank you for playing the game! The issue seemed to be with a video file and it's currently fixed in V1.1 - The next game will be a *little* less tinnitus-inducing ;)

Thank you! Your support means a lot!

All the time and body fluids this game took are worth if it affected you this way. Thanks a million!

Thank you! For reference, there’s more context in the album from which the game was inspired.

YES
Very Weird game man but i like it! one question how many drugs were you on when you made this hahaha
Here is my video:
Thanks for playing and making me laugh for a good 10 minutes! To answer your question: mostly caffeine and sleep deprivation ;)
Awesome experience. To me, it feels like an accurate interpretation of humanity.
