A nice short horror game, in which there aren't any real jumpscares or imminent danger. Just walk at your own pace and try to unveil what this world and its mysterious story have to tell (and this story is quite interesting). It's worth mentioning that the sounds and the voice acting are great! Progression isn't 100% linear, and you can go back to previous places, in case you missed something, which is cool. The visual style is also pretty good, even if though it's pretty common in horror games nowadays (but that's not this game's fault).
Chasing Static was all right. I especially enjoyed the art style and atmospheric aesthetics of this game, but the ending genuinely felt out of no where, and that bothered me a bit. I also wish there were more automatic save points. There were a couple times I lost hours of gameplay from crashes. The pace was a bit confusing, too. Either way, I would recommend it as a short, unique, and pretty decent walking-sim.
LOVED this game! The game is roughly 2hrs, as someone who takes their time playing horror games for youtube. i loved the visions and slow unravel of the story. This one definitely left me feeling inspired and sad it was over. I played this full game on my channel, feel free to check it out! :) https://youtu.be/YbjQZL3DLOU?si=nReRukuapYSOPzsv
An extremely atmospheric and cool horror game. Great themes and vibe. Less of an action horror and more of a chill horror game to vibe to. If you want something with similar vibes but more action based you can check out the creators newer work Hollow Body. Both games are great.
