I really enjoyed playing this one Smile
Review:
Spoiler below!

-Generally: 9/10 Smile
-Story: 5/5 *****
-Scares: 5/5 *****
-Voices: 5/5 *****
-Semblance: 4/5 ****
-Lights: 3/5 (box lights are useful. When they are used, player can see at least something when runs out of oil (like I did Tongue) ) ***

- I found a couple of bugs. I don't remember in which level, but you can move the table and some static stuff is stuck in the air. And same goes with the stool. (candle stays in the air when you grab the stool)


All I gotta say is that, this one was the best custom story I've played for a long time! Smile

Thanks man, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Yea, as for the lighting, I will definitely try to use some box lights (I didn't use any for this one). Also, didn't even realize the static candles would stay floating of the table under them moved haha. Well now I know!

RE: Emma's Story Released! UPDATE 1/17/12 - seahawks4ever - 02-20-2012

I just finished your custom story and I have to say, this is one of the best ones so far!

Spoiler below!

The statues was an interesting way to kill me LOL. Between trying to work my way around them AND the monster, I didn't stand a chance.

I really liked your loading screens. It sound silly as it's not part of the gameplay but it was refreshing to see something different.

As a couple people mentioned, some kind of lighting would be helpful...BUT NOT NECCESSARY. I found the CS to get even scarier when I couldn't see as well.

THe jumpscares were perfectly balanced and the whole 'pick up something, get chased after' wasn't there as much. When I picked up the blue rod, I was certain something was going to happen but it didn't.

The overall feel I get when playing reminded me of how I felt playing Amnesia-TDD. I've played probably 15 custom stories and this was the closest I felt to the original.

Overall- 9.9 out of 10. Why not a 10/10? Because it ended! Tongue I seriously wished it would have continued.

will you please upload it to mediafire because my PC crashes every time i try to download anything from gamefront, wich is where moddb transfer me to! please?

RE: Emma's Story Released! UPDATE 1/17/12 - Ashlotte - 04-18-2012

I haven't downloaded an awful lot of custom stories, but this one by far actually got to me in more than one place. I think I startled my roommate with the amount of times I screamed and nearly flew out of my computer chair. There is a glitch I noticed though, maybe it's just me.

Spoiler below!
In the prison, down the hole underneath the bed where you collect the chisel, the ladder doesn't seem to be working, either up or down so I'm basically 'stuck' there.

Not sure if that's a bug or not, but I'm anxious to play the rest. This is bloody amazing!
