I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the demo! There's a bit of mystery around what happened in the past and what the mayor had to do with it, so I really want to see in the full game!
I’ve played many horror games, but this is the first time I’ve experienced one that combines horror with themes of corruption and politics. I’ve tried the demo and analyzed it for myself—overall, it’s really solid! The main character’s walking animation could just use a bit of fine-tuning. Also, if possible, incorporating a few social media memes could add a touch of humor to the game.
If I were to rate it on a 10-point scale, this demo easily deserves a 9/10. Nest Games is very brave for tackling such sensitive and pressing societal issues in a game, and I truly hope to play the full version soon. Keep that creative flame burning to continue making such unique and bold games! Wishing you a smooth launch and a warm reception from the gaming community! ♥♥♥
This was a really good experience, I loved the way the story is told and makes you question what is truly happening in the world, Keep up the good work, I'm sure the developer of the game has a great future ahead
Very interesting game and scary bcs this happens IRL. Playing this game made me feel angry and scared because you understand where the characters are coming from.
Salamat for the game! Very detailed and very neatly makes you feel like you really are part of the community and live inside the game. Deep and powerful topic as well, both the personal issues of the family and the overall political turmoil.
Looking forward to the next chapters and I hope everyone pitches in to help you fix / get a new working station!
Genuinely one of the most beautiful looking indie game I've played (I know it's ironic considering where the game takes place). I'm excited to play the other chapters! Sorry to hear about your laptop :( Hope you get your stuff fixed soon!
Mandato has some serious potential. You can tell that the developer put in a lot of work to make the environment feel authentic as well as the characters. Drop by my channel to watch the full gameplay and leave a comment/subscribe :)
This was an amazing game with absolutely amazing environmental detail. I love how realistic everything is and the seemingly mundane moments. It adds so much character to everything. I look forward to the full release.
Enjoy this edited no-commentary playthrough, then go experience the game for yourself! Make sure to wishlist it on Steam, leave a rating on itch.io, and support the creator.
A truly profound and powerful experience. Experiencing these social issues firsthand through the eyes of someone living in that environment delivers an impact that news reports or social media feeds simply cannot match.
The PSX style, detailed environments, and color palette looked fantastic. I loved the mechanics and subtle comic relief of trying to stumble through running the bar on the first day alongside the protagonist. My only small issue was the trek back to the house; it was so dark that it took me a while to figure out which way to go.
Aside from that minor hurdle, this is not your typical horror game. The feeling of pure helplessness at the end really hit home. Knowing this is only Chapter 1, I am incredibly excited to see how everything that was set up here plays out!
For being chapter 1, this is not too shabby so far!
This game seems really solid so far. Amazing story telling, cutscenes, scripted events, everything just falls into place quite well! I did not seem to encounter any bugs, glitched, crashes, fps problems, etc. The game did very well for me. The graphics are really well made and the overall atmosphere of the town and such was really well done! It felt like I was kind of there! Overall, this series seems to have potential for sure! Made a video on it.
HUHU SORRANG GANDA NUNG GAME! Na-enjoy ko yung attention to details. Nakaka-immerse yung environment n'ya! Ang natural ng animation ng mga tao. 'Pag nasa malayo ka aakalain mong mga tunay silang tao na pinapanuod mo lang through an old phone. And speaking of phone, para talagang kuha sa tunay na buhay yung video sa phone tapos low quality lang yung video HAHAHAHAHA Kudos din sa sound design n'yo, binubuo n'ya talaga yung atmosphere and very natural yung voice acting. Bukod sa visuals and sounds, naa-appreciate ko talaga yung story at yung gusto nyong ipahiwatig na message. 'Di pa yan yung full game ha, pa'no pa kaya 'pag tapos na... Kaabang-abang! Good luck sa inyo and sana pagbutihan n'yo pa! <3
Sin duda este juego me hizo darme cuenta que los sitios menos desarrollados son iguales en todo el mundo, al principio realmente pense que era algun barrio de sudamerica, e incluso me hizo recordar como solia vivir en mi infancia

Not a bad game overall. Just wish the jogging was a bit faster, but really like the political suspicion here.

Ito ang gusto ko sa mga pinoy indie games. Realistic ang storya at relatable. 10/10 💪
