It was the first game I played in my video, I liked the black and white filter, it made the parts with colors pop more. While short, was still cool to play.
Played your game in my seires and I have to say for a demo and how short it was it was something just truly amazing I cannot wait for the full release! And cant wait to see what else you create!
This game deserves so much love and so many more people should be playing it, it was a super unique experience that really experimented. not a great horror game, a absolutely amazing horror game, i want more plz
Was the grayscale inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's "The Color Out of Space?" The title is rather similar to yours, and I like how making whatever came from space feel more alien by making have actual color. I think it's rather similar to his story about a strange color that no one has seen before coming to Earth on a meteorite and infecting the land around it.
My thoughts exactly. I saw the title and immediately thought "iS tHAt lOvE-FReAkIng-cRaFT oN My Itch.io pAgE!??" Gotta say, I'm excited to check it out now!
I adore the aesthetic and the strange way the visuals are manipulated once the creature landed, super excited to see where the demo goes and to take a look at the rest of your catalogue!!
La paleta de colores del juego es genial y única. Me gusta estar haciendo labores diversas para estar distraído cuando empieza el terror. Gracias devs!
In "The Thing From Space" by Liminal Road Studios, players step into the shoes of George, a geologist intrigued by reports of peculiar occurrences surrounding a newly formed meteorite crater. Eager to study the phenomenon up close, George sets up camp near the crater to examine the soil and unravel its mysteries. However, as night falls, an unforeseen event shakes the tranquil setting. Another meteorite crashes down, heralding the arrival of an otherworldly entity with malevolent intentions.
Suddenly thrust into a fight for survival, George finds himself pursued by the unearthly being unleashed by the second meteorite. With adrenaline pumping and fear gripping his heart, players must navigate through the dark, treacherous terrain while evading the relentless pursuit of the creature from beyond. As the tension escalates and the line between reality and nightmare blurs, "The Thing From Space" delivers a gripping and adrenaline-fueled horror experience that keeps players on the edge of their seats.
I loved It! I cant wait for the final project! It totally reminds me of HP Lovecraft's Color from Space! Is the final project going to be one big story or a bunch of short stories?
Nice jam game! I liked our encounter with the alien, I may have demanded a cuddle. I really liked how the game was in greyscale up until the the arrival of the thing from space, it was a very effective design.
would love to play this since the opening seems stylish and polished but I can't find anything to interact with after setting up the camp and I was wandering around the forest from 10 minutes trying to find something to progress things. Really needs better direction
Sorry about that, you need to interact with the suitcase near the tent entrance, we will work on better player guidance systems next week after the DreadXP Gamejam is over.

The demo's really well made and even brings in a unique idea in color when the monster is chasing you. Nice job. Keep it up.

Great horror game.
Very good game, 5 STARS!! (I have very bad orientation)
That was a great game, buddy! The cosmic horror is the best type of terror for me.
Included this in my 3 random horror game video!
Super shot but not bad at all for being made for a game jam. Made a video on it.

(TCOOS is my favorite LC story if it wasn't already obvious.)
I learned about it from the OSP video about Lovecraft, and at some point later I learned that it inspired the corruption biome in Terraria
Oh wow, I didn't realize that it inspired Terraria too! I thought it was just Moon guy. That's super cool!
LOVE THIS, GREAT GAME.
Can't wait for the full game release..
Gray scale was an AMAZING visual choice for this game! Really made it stand out from others. I now NEED a longer game in this same style!!
Crazy short horror game with a fantastic style! Awesome job!
Funny how the Cthulhu-like creature ended up bringing color to the world.
Really enjoyed it definitely looking forward towards the full release
cant download properly
Got an error trying to extract the files. Not sure what's wrong
.
The visuals were awesome and made it very creepy and cool. Really well done, especially for a first release and a game jam.

Thanks, we are very happy you enjoyed the game, glad you liked our grayscale choice!
Very impressive game jam submission. The only thing I could've done without was the character's breathing/short running distance.
Thanks for the feedback! We will probably increase the character stamina on future updates.

After interacting with the suitcase you need to scroll mouse to use the soil analyzer thingy.
