This game scared me every time it was supposed to. Proud of that and proud of you. I hope to see this in a larger game format someday and I beg you to keep up the amazing work!
I've been meaning to finish this game forever now but never got too cuz it's too terrifying for me untill today with twitch chat i actually did finally beat it, it's like a great weight is off of me finally. You did an amazing job with the game!
The truth is, if it wasn't for the recording, I would spend all my free time to "discover" everything ================================= Prawda jest taka, gdyby nie nagrani, to bym spędził cały wolny czas aby wszysytko "odkryć"
love the game. I don't know why but I accidentally rushed the game without seeing any spooks until the pipe one. I'm disappointed at myself for how I keep accidentally finding the right path. Again, I love the game and its atmosphere
Although I managed to go out of bounds and softlock myself twice,really cool game. I really like the concept of scanning the area and drawing the perimeter of the area to guide yourself. It has a lot of potential. The silhouettes suddenly appearing were also very cool. First time it happened it genuinely surprised me.
On the other hand, the ending was kinda weak. Entering a tunnel and having the game take your control away only to scan a weird monster that feels visually inconsistent followed by a PNG jumpscare.
Lidar is clearly inspired by Scanner Sombre, one of the most original horror games I've seen up until now.
Lidar, as much as Scanner Sombre, will make you feel the unease of complete darkness and alienation from your surroundings. It's simple, yet extremely effective, and, as H.P. Lovecraft would say: "The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown."

Before this game I had no clue about LIDAR horror games! The concept of wandering in the dark with a strange entity lurking was captured perfectly in the game. The strange and uneasy feeling was nice when exploring the map. Only complaint was the scare at the end. Didn't really understand what it was.
Interesting concept, would be nice if this was somehow turned into a survival horror in relation to something like Alone in the dark, silent hill, hell night, fatal frame and so on.

i thought the ending was a bit weird asw
Great game, loved it!
In the first playthrough, I didn't scan the person and because of this, the game broke down... The second time everything went without incident)
is this free
i love the game it so scary but a settings option would be perfeble as maybe we can adjust our sensitivity sounds and other stuff

vewwy scawwy
Amazing concept, this game made me a fan of LIDAR horror games. Would love to see this evolve into a bigger project
So freaking cool. I love this game, could do with more spooks but overall not bad. More cool than scary, still good.

Other than that, yeah. Game is very cool

agreed tbh
This game inspired me to look further into LIDAR based horror games. Definitely a sweet little introduction into the gimmick!
