I played through the game and actually uploaded my gameplay to my channel. For being such a small team, this is incredibly impressive! The art, atmosphere, music, story, and voice-acting were all superb! I know that you all may have moved on to other products individually, but I truly hope that you make another game together. I loved how everything felt real, rather than just being a soulless hallway. Thank you for this, I hope to see more some day!
Thank you for your very kind comment! We appreciate you very much, maybe someday we'll get together again for a project. In the meantime feel free to follow our individual progress too :)
Currently working on a couple mobile games, one of which is a huge revamp of a previous work I called Slice Knight. It's on the website, I'm making a huge update with new chars, skins and tweaks to a bunch of game mechanics.
I just looked into Slice Knight, it actually looks quite fun. I hope it all goes well! Any ideas on time frames? Also, congratulations on getting here!
I adore the fact that you added sound for when someone climbs up the bed and walks off of it. Small detail that can be easily missed if you play the game properly (unlike me lol). Great game, great scares. Here is my playthrough of it!
Pros and cons are down below) Check out my vid, it turned out pretty funny:
Advantages:
1. Very spooky! I liked the jumpscares and pacing. How you built up the suspense and the tension. Great job!
2. The visuals are awesome! I really liked admiring the environment, looking at paintings e.t.c. Btw Peter the Great - Russian tsar is a very nice choice) He is hella fab)
3. The sound design is cool. I didn't get what was that eating -my-brains-from-my-ear in the basement, but overall it sounded very demonic and out of this world.
Disadvantages (points for noting and further developing):
1. I would like to see a fricking HUGE monster running after the main character near the end of the game. Monster's roars were lit! Maybe not in this game, but I would be really glad to see your works with HUGE monsters.
2. I guess a little bit more work with environment would be nice (with its changing). I mean some not obvious changes are appreciated and spook a lot upon noticing. Like changing the faces on the paintings or statues.
3. The closet was promicing - use its potential. The door made you come in the room literally scratching the closet. If something would jump out at you and you have nowhere to back out (because of the door) - super scary!
Overall:
The game is awesome. Recommend checking it out a lot! Hope you will find some of my suggestions interesting and use it in your projects) or not - that is also fine) 5/5
This was really cool to play! Good job on setting the atmosphere. The art direction is well done. I would have appreciate a wee bit more light later in the game to see where to go.
Avarice is a beautiful, creepy, scary horror game that grabs hold of you and keeps you on your toes throughout the entire experience. You never know what's coming. This really is an amazing game that definitely won't go unnoticed.
Great game. hard for me to play though as my computer is not the best. i feel like you guys should add in graphics options for people with lower-end PC's.
This was very interesting to play! Kind of creepy (I'm almost to the point where nothing scares me), but everything was balanced in my opinion. I actually solved some of the puzzles by chance without really looking or searching (I usually like to look around), but the creepiness level was definitely an impressive touch! I was entrapped by the sense that the next time I go through the house, something WILL happen. I wasn't expecting the hellish part though.
Okay, enough rambling. I love it, it was one of my first to play in itch.io. Great job in the development.
Legit a very awesome game. The night we played this itch was having some glitch problems but we will play it again. Either way loved the game. Check it out!
Wow! Thank you so much for that amazing donation. We're super thankful. Also very glad you enjoyed the game, we didn't catch the stream unfortunately but hopefully they enjoyed it too!
I was skeptical going into this, Avarice compares itself to PT, and I thought how could it possibly stack up against a horror juggernaut like that. Well, the game does not disappoint. In my time playing I felt a lot of the same feelings I had while playing PT but Avarice has a much more clear straightforward story. I wish more horror games were made this well, a lot of games on this website feel, unfinished, this does not. Awesome job developer, I can't wait to see more of your work. If anyone wants to see what my experience was like you can watch the video below.
I was so scared when I've realized this horror game could've been similar to P.T. but it was short. It's definitely the best horror game I've probably experienced so far. You guys did a great job of this!
I really enjoyed this game the graphics and sound effects are relly well done The game did remind me of P.T which i liked and I really liked the store as well if you would like to see my playthrough here it is:

Very good game. I had a problem with the lamp :'D
Thx for the game.
I don't think we are supposed to carry the lamp around. It wasn't really necessary anyway. It was fun trying to though.
such a beautiful game and story :")
Thank you!

말그대로 PT 스타일 공포게임입니다. 배가 충돌하는 해상사고가 있은 후 정신적인 트라우마를 겪는 주인공이 겪는 (아마도) 현실세계가 아닌 곳에서의(배 안에서의) 이야기입니다. 짧지만 공포 분위기를 밀도있게 구현해냈습니다~! 추천!
Just a wee playthrough for you
Thanks for the unique perspective
