OT:
Quite a good cs. There weren't many flying naked guys, and the teleporting monsters and bodies were just enough to keep me on my toes and not too much that I got used to them.
A few little niggles though:
The notes could do with some spelling/grammar checks and neatening up a bit. They could do with some separate names as well, but these are just cosmetic things.
Someone mentioned the door issue, as in there isn't one when you go through it. Again, cosmetic, doesn't detract from the game.
Yeh, I enjoyed this cs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brcLHl-7EdA

From what I read, it seems like a decent story.
I will download this one and give it a try.
RE: Fear Night! - WookieMang - 05-12-2012
Some of your scares are very forced from what I played around with
Otherwise im guessing this was sort of a non serious project but it did scare me in a couple places
RE: Fear Night! - CrazyCraftR - 08-09-2012
Man.. It was one of the scariest maps I ever played xD
Here's my Let's Play:
Edit: Don't edit my comment as you did two times before.

*Sigh*
I honestly have no idea why mods like these are so well received. There is literally no story, no atmosphere, and sub-par mapping filled with jumpscares that make absolutely no sense; how can people like it? It saddens me to see that the overall quality of modding has dropped so much. People say things like "zomg best mod evr!!1!<3<3" about this mod and others like it, which makes me think they've never even heard of or played the original game.

The pictures turned me off more than imagining Stephen Hawking naked.

Wow. . .
Um, this wasn't very good. The state of progression for this custom story was like many others: that being rather shitty.
The mapping was pretty amateur, but not all together bad. Many noises and events seemed 'out of place' to just dumb. Enemy encounters also left quite a bit to be desired - an unfortunately usual occurrence in material found these days.
Just know that although it appears that not all others here agree with me; scares are so much more than just cheap thrills. What would you find scarier? A sudden, but quick flash of what might have been a monster accompanied by a loud shriek. Or waking up late at night to find your door open a crack: a shadowed hand gripping the door-frame - making way for a head to poke through; it's white eyes trained on you? (This actually happened to me as a child, though it turned out to be my dad. Due to his disorder he didn't realize that he was frightening the fuck out of me.)
