Pretty cool concept to create noise to distrect him i also got scared shitles after i noticed that he was rushing towards me because i made to much noise
I loved the creepiness of this game!!! It took me a while to figure out what to do but I might make a separate video tryin to beat this!! I made this about a month ago, been busy but ill be bask with more content soon!!
Puppetmaker is a game about the primal horror of being caught and seen. I really liked the gameplay and implementation, although I played for a long time and maybe fresh updates have already been released. Good luck with further development!
I will be glad to subscribe to my channel (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
I would also appreciate if you could give an opinion on our latest game. Game devs advice is precious because we know better what it takes to make something work. It's called "Backdoor Shifts"
I didn’t expect it, but this gave me the biggest jumpscare on my channel yet. It was clipped and I am rightfully embarrassed lol. Thank you! Well done!
Ok, We have never heard this before. Works on every normal PC also without a graphics card. Can you check in your Task Manager -> Performance if the Game draws all the Performance?
I'm now in menu and my pc sounds as if it was preparing to fly. In Task Manager is shows me that 1st thing about processor is 60% and the last one about my videocard that is GeForce GTX 1660 is 99%... eventhough I'm in the main menu
I liked the game and I liked the concept but I had a hard time with the actual mechanics of the game, it was hard to throw things and when trying to hide/ stay silent he would always lock onto me every time. even so it was an enjoyable experience and was a chilling environment. good time!
Wow... this game was amazing to play! Despite the few bugs I experienced (none of which actually made a difference to the gameplay), I really thought that this game was a masterpiece! I can't wait to see the future updates!
This game gave me suspense and scares like I hadn't felt in a while! Sad I couldn't fully grasp the sneaking mechanics, but I will definitely be coming back to try and beat it! Great work thus far.
This was very stressful lol, I enjoyed it. I do have some things I disliked though - I found it strange how there were items scattered everywhere yet 90% of them I couldn't pick up.
The other thing is the puppetmaster's footsteps not having 3D sound. Very hard to pinpoint where it is, though I guess that made it even more stressful :D.
Thanks, we will add an outline glow to the objects that you can collect. That you can't pinpoint him is not by accident though. If the Puppetmaker is more far away, the audio spreads because that way it's harder for you. If you get nearer the audio will slowly get more stereo again and you can pinpoint him better. We implemented this because that way you will get more interactions with him, instead of avoiding the sound.
I rarely play this type of game because most of them are very long and i hate playing games longer than an hour. Thats what i thought at first about this game, but it really didnt took me that long lmao. Really love the game. Was kinda difficult at first but i eventually turned down the difficulty lol. keep up the good work!
We know that, but we wanted to make it kinda unique with the Mouse Wheel and I get its confusing with so many mechanics. We are working on it! Thanks for the Feedback :)

I would also appreciate if you could give an opinion on our latest game. Game devs advice is precious because we know better what it takes to make something work. It's called "Backdoor Shifts"
Thank you for the Feedback! Really Appreciated :). We will look into it!
I didn’t expect it, but this gave me the biggest jumpscare on my channel yet. It was clipped and I am rightfully embarrassed lol. Thank you! Well done!
well... my pc that carries all the modern games was sounding like a plane and became hot when i tried to play this one(
Ok, We have never heard this before. Works on every normal PC also without a graphics card. Can you check in your Task Manager -> Performance if the Game draws all the Performance?
I'm now in menu and my pc sounds as if it was preparing to fly. In Task Manager is shows me that 1st thing about processor is 60% and the last one about my videocard that is GeForce GTX 1660 is 99%... eventhough I'm in the main menu
Have you checked if the Performance is drawn by our Game or something else?
Yes, the first thing and last one are 10-15% each if i don't launch the game
I've played a few games on Itch here over the past few months and i gotta say, This is the most memorable one.
The gameplay was intense and the ambience and scares were perfect. VERY surprised it was free, Please make more games.
Thanks for the nice Feedback!
If only I breathed through my nose
This was some good horror! I screamed way too loud at some of these spooks! Great job!
Thanks for playing! Appreciated :)

Yeah that sounds like a good design choice, I guess it seems better if it was stereo all the time but actually in gameplay might be too easy.
We also thought about reflecting audio like in real life but that would be to much coding haha. Overall thanks for the feedback!
PULSE STUDIOS YALL DID YALL THING ON THIS ONE
Can wait for more games from yall, this one was heat!if you like my video make sure to hit that like button and subscribe
I didn't like that I had to go through the entire opening/cut-scene every time I died and restarted.
I wasn't able to pick up anything.
Couldn't read the notes in the basement.
Those things aside it was stressful and scary. Very good!
Thanks for the Feedback and Gameplay video!
No problem, just try playing it on normal next time ;)

the game is cool and all but having to hold like 3 buttons down to get anywhere is kind of a pain
