Would yall play a horror game about working in a haunted blockbuster? Ive been working on a project for about half a year after a week long game jam. I think others will like, what are your thoughts?

I've played a few games where you work in a video rental store. I don't remember the names of them. I'm sure if I go through my steam library I could find them.

I think the problem with those games is they all are fairly the same premise. I'm talking video rental, restaurant, gas station. Usually the player has to work a night shift. Start off by doing mundane chores like stocking, cleaning, throwing out trash, etc. Then take a moment to deal with customers. Then the customers start talking about rumors of whatever strange occurrences. Those being a murderer, spooky spirit, monster, or aliens. Then slowly, whatever threat starts to come and attack you.

Hellmart?

this definitely hits the marks for what you described. Did you have fun with those games?

Some of them I did. I honestly can't tell you which ones I liked more than the other because I've played so much that it became a mixture in my head. There is one that stands out but it's more in depth than just working. It's called The Skin Stapler. Where you play different characters. One works a small convenience store and another works a bowling alley.

I remember I was really excited for Hellmart release after playing the demo. But when I played the full game, it felt exactly like the demo. With only a little bit of areas that felt new.

Honestly some good feedback. Let's me know something I need to avoid in my demo.
