Nice demo, enjoyed it!
Tank you devs for this demo, cant wait to see what you´ll come up with for the full release! Enjoyed it a lot and getting my ear drums absolutely destroyed by that jumscare in the end really brought everything together
. Made video if you want to check it out :3
Hey I'd love to play this game it looks really good. But when I open the game my mouse is stuck in the centre and I can't click anything. I tried using alt+enter to un-fullscreen the game but it still held my mouse captive. Thank you!
So cool!
The dark environment and limited flashlight that needs to be charged made this scary and exciting. The mechanics on top of the lighthouse was a bit confusing, but I somehow finished the task. Great demo and looking forward to the full game.
Hey Justine thanks for playing our game we really appreciate the feedbacks you gave us especially the sprint part we can update, and also for the complicated weather data machine, we updated it yesterday, and also we like the questioning about what is reality, where is real etc. Glad you play it, and can't wait to see you play the rest
Lighthouse.
Hey thanks for playing our game! Maybe we should change the game's title as inage sometimes
beside the jokes, you are the only one thinking about the game's name while playing and thank you for that , oh also thanks for notebook/sleeping bug ,we should be very hardworking person to open the notebook while sleeping right, anyways we will fix it 
we can't really wait to see you play the rest of the game when we finish it :)
Hello
, i am a musician and i think we can do a nice collab for your next game. let me know if u are interested. my instagram is @miladslow you can contact me there
Very short, but has potential, thanks for making it!
where are the topics
why do all these games have no topics
Heyy, thank you for reporting the bugs! We fixed them (at least that's what we think :D)
Okay, I wasn't allowed to talk on the radio, idk why that was happening.
Atmosphere is really good. Especially in the latter half of the demo. I'll keep an eye out for the full version of the game. Keep it up.
Here's my channel for other games I have played. https://www.youtube.com/@Levont
Has potential, like the theme and the enviroment curious as to what will happen in the full version.
I have so many questions! Very well-done I'm excited to see more!
Heyy thanks for playing our game, we're looking forward to watching you play the full game
heyy Yujirowdy! Thank you for playing our game! We're looking forward to watching you play the full game :)
9/10 - I REALLY LIKE THIS GAME!
I really appreciate you taking the time to send me this game! I enjoyed all of it & I'm not going to lie, I thought it was going to be multiple nights, so I avoided the lighthouse part, thinking I didn't need to do it THAT day, but still managed to get the weather right LOL. I can't wait for the full game <3
Thank you for this great video and comments that you give. Also we're working on this complex weather machine to make it more understandable. Thank you again :)
I can't wait!:D
For being a short little demo, this was not too shabby so far! Quite a solid premise/story so far. Definitely loved the atmosphere/look of the lighthouse segment. The graphics are really well done on this one! Made a video on it.
heyy TisticDemon, thank you for playing our game and we love the reactions :)
Heyy, thank you for playing our game and great comments!
This demo was super intriguing. I'm left with so many questions about Noah's past. I love the island setting and overall vibe and the music box tune was very nice.
A few suggestions for improvements:
-As others have stated, the weather machine mechanics seem a little overly complicated for a game that isn't a "Lighthouse Keeper Simulator". Unless it actually matters that we get an accurate reading for the weather report, I feel like it should be a little simpler just so players aren't spending too much time on it only for it to have no real consequences if we get it wrong.
-Also, the pills took a while to find. To make it more obvious for players, maybe add the same glowing effect like all the other items that were interactable? And when we don't have our notepad, maybe add the current objective in the upper left-hand corner so that players are not confused on what the next move is.
Other than that, I really enjoyed the demo and am excited to have my questions answered when the full game releases. Keep up the great work!
heyyy Hasan thanks for playing our game , your theories got a point ;) and thanks for your feedbacks we will come with an update for weather data machine soon, we can't wait you to play the rest of the game also Billy is a good name :)
heyyy thanks I really enjoy while watching your video and thanks for all of the reactions and nice comments we will update the weather puzzle thing soon
game sounds awesome.. but that "puzzle" on the lighthouse totally unecessary.
We're fully aware of it and working on it! Thank you for playing :)
Hey! I played / reviewed your game today. If you're curious I'll leave a link here for you. Thanks again for reaching out and keep up the great work!
Hey Ubuu! First of all, thank you so much for playing our game. It was great watching your reactions while you played, and your in-game feedback will be incredibly useful to us. We also want to thank you for the incredibly detailed review you provided at the end; we will certainly take your feedback into account. Thanks for the kind words. We hope the story will fully click for you once we release the next part, and we look forward to you playing the continuation.
It was my pleasure! I'm so glad that found my feedback beneficial and I'm looking forward to what else you have in store with Outage. Thanks again for reaching out, feel free to stay in touch. :)
Very nice, looking forward to the full game! Thanks for reaching out and letting me know about it!
Hey Sebastian, thank you for playing OUTAGE, we look forward to watching you play the full version of the game. Thank you again!
Hello! The Game is amazing even though its just a demo, can't wait for the full release. But the only downside for me is the light house controls, its a bit difficult to do it but it is still good a good experience. Thank youu!!
Hey Macauley thanks a lot for playing our game. We love each and every reactions of yours really can't wait you to play the rest of the game <3
Awesome demo of game! it was interesting to play, lots of cool sound effects too, would love to see how full version will look ;)
Hey Sarah thanks for playing our game, we really want to see you playing the rest of the game also thanks for the bug report while occur in second playing it really helps us to improve the game <3
I like the way it was going. It had good atmosphere and was well thought out. A touch of ambience goes a long way into setting the mood and will help such as the buzz of the lights for the hospital would sell the unsettling nature of it or the crashing of waves and snapping of twigs.
Heyyo thanks a lot for playing our game I like the way you say the chicken will protect me the voiceover parts are really fun to watch, and we will consider about the label idea for the pills thanks again :3
This game was awesome! Cant wait till the full version! I did feel dumb playing though. Got stuck a bunch of time ! lol
Heyyy Sago thanks a lot for playing our game we really enjoy while you are playing we were thinking about give our chicken a name tag, and considering about the name Gobert and English is not our native language so sometimes we make mistakes like in the Joshua dialogue part. In that part there is a misunderstanding for black we mean those who have fully fallen into darkness and gray represents people who caught in between these are lore terms in our game. But if you have any suggestions we would love to hear that, thanks again and sorry for the pills part <3
A very cool lighthouse story, i needed time with the weather machine, lol. Intriguing story, but very weird starting off at lighthouse then ending up in hospital. Is there some sort of ptsd we suffering from? or were those just mental patients or previous lighthouse keepers? Looking forward to the full game and where the story goes. Thanks again for the link to the game. See my playthrough here:
Heyy Alaki thank you for playing our game we got lots of feedback from your gameplay especially the rail that you almost fell down from the lighthouse :') , also we like when you call rebecca as bendy , there is lots of fun in your video , and for the rest of the game we will answer the questions in your mind and can't wait to see you playing the rest. Thanks again
This was really good I can't wait to see what the full game has! The story has me intrigued! Keep it up!
Hello Patrick, glad you liked it, I just watch the video especially the singing part at the mental hospital was really fun, and we got lots of feedback while you're playing, thank you for your support we can't wait to see you playing the rest !
Really cool demo that sets up a lot of questions for the full game! Great job!
we really like that you playing and thanks for commenting on the lighthouse job thing we will set up the weather data machine working process again we really want to see you playing the reat of the game <3
I was locked in for the job part.
the most difficult job on the earth
I am not good at my job xD
Good game!
your job isn't good at you :) thanks for playing our game we were really happy to see you playing
What a pretty game! Loved the many details put into this and how unique it is. The Weather machine got me a bit confused at first but I got it in the end 😊
Also, thank you for making the chicken interactable with, she's really cute. I got a bit sad when the game ended but I forgot this is just the demo.
Can't wait for the full release! Wishing you the best ❤️
Thank you for your very kind comment on our game, we can't wait to see you playing the rest <3
Has a nicely formed atmosphere that gives the psychological horror genre. Good luck on the game making process, can't wait to see more...
Thank you for your time and nice comment on our game, and we can't wait to see you playing the rest
This has some nice potential, but the assets feel out of place for me... They don't match each other is what I want to say. I wrote some more feedback saying a bit more about it, good luck!
Thanks for playing. We’ll consider your feedback to help us improve the game, but could you be more specific? For instance, is it an issue with the texture quality of the assets not matching, or is it a problem with the color matching?
Both. 1st time we start the game we see that bright wood wrecked ship(?), and the more we play we can see some assets of lower-quality and higher quality mixed on it(flashlight is one of them of lower-quality).
An absolutely mind-blowing experience! It captures the colours of gloom and despair and the intricacies of the gameplay with the weather machine is such a unique concept. The addition of the twist that pulls you through the darkest parts of Noah's mind, it truly opens the story up to countless ideas. With the shadow fallen ambiance only brightened by the moon and broken mind of a simple man, the adventure was amazing!
Hello Ash we really liked your playing with lots of excitement we know we leave you with lots of questions but its just 1/7 of the game, and we can't wait to see you playing the rest, we hope the rest of the story will answer your questions and satisfy you :) If you like the game and wait for the rest you can wishlist Outage. We are on the steam now!
Haunting atmosphere and beautiful visuals. Can't wait to see more!
Thank you so much!
