"Magnificent Graphics Update for a More Realistic and Immersive Experience!"
I would like to suggest a comprehensive graphical update that can bring the game up to a new standard of realism and atmosphere. It will be able to give both us loyal players and new fans a renewed, intense experience and draw us even deeper into the exciting world you have created.
- Improved Animations for Characters and Interactions
The current walking, running and hook animations have served their purpose, but they are starting to look a bit static and unnatural. An improvement in this area could be a total update to the survivors' movements, making them seem more fluid and realistic. For example:
Walking and Running Animations: Character movements could be optimized to look more natural, so that every time we move, it feels like a truly human response to fear and danger. Try to imagine a survivor flexing his muscles in a run, twisting out of a grip or stumbling in panic - it would create a much stronger sense of intensity and realism.
Hook Animations: These could become more dramatic and personal to each survivor, with detailed body reactions and expressions that reflect the horror and pain. Updating the hook animations with different shades of desperation and pain would really enhance the game's emotional impact and provide a deeper experience every time a survivor is caught.
- Graphical Improvement of Environments and Details
A graphical update to the game's environments could significantly transform the experience. Today's gaming experiences are full of details, and by adding more modern graphical elements you can create a truly dark and captivating atmosphere that draws us in. Here are some concrete ideas:
Realistic Shadows and Light: Dynamic light and shadows can make nighttime environments far more eerie and accentuate the contrast between light and dark. Think of a misty forest or an abandoned building with light reflecting realistically through cracks and broken windows. It could add a unique creepiness to each game.
Detailed Textures and Materials: By updating textures such as rust, bloodstains, soil, and vegetation you can create a more immersive and believable world. Small details in brick walls, the texture of trees, and worn surfaces can make players feel like they are standing in the middle of an eerie reality.
- Visual Effects for Atmospheric Enhancement
By updating visual effects such as fog, particle effects and small details such as insects and weather conditions, the atmosphere of the game can be further enhanced. A few suggestions for updated visual effects could be:
Fog and Haze: Imagine a layer of heavy fog creeping through the forests and dimly illuminated by the moonlight. Such an atmosphere could give the game an extra dimension of fear, as the player would not always be able to see everything that hides in the dark.
Effects on Body Fluids and Blood Splatter: If the blood and wounds of the characters were updated to look more realistic, it could increase the creepiness of the game. Blood splatter on the ground or on surfaces could be more detailed and varied, which would add to the game's gruesome and dangerous atmosphere.
Interaction with the Environment: Updated animations could also include how survivors interact with the environment – for example pushing open doors, tripping over roots, or holding their hands up in front of them when running. These kinds of small interactions can give a sense of survival instinct that will make it even more engrossing.
- Updating the HUD and Interface to a More Modern Look
An update of the HUD and interface could make the game more intuitive and modern. By changing visual indicators such as health status, stamina, and effects, you could give it an updated style to match the new graphics and animations. A clean and more modern HUD would be both aesthetically pleasing and functional, without taking attention away from the actual gaming experience. - Realistic Sound and Mood Effects
To complete the experience, the soundtrack could also get an update in conjunction with the graphical improvements. More realistic sounds when the characters move through different surfaces, small squeaking sounds, and more dynamic background sounds could really add to the immersion.
Concluding Remark
I think these upgrades could take the game to a whole new level and draw both new and seasoned players deeper into the experience. A visual and atmospheric upgrade of this caliber would allow players to experience all the small nuances that make the game unforgettable and intense. Thanks for all the hard work you put into the game, and I hope these suggestions can inspire future updates!”

Male survivors fingers still break when healing others, among many other ugly rigging/animation choices since the survivor animation rework lol
Still awaiting some polish on them despite they all share the same set across masculine/feminine.0
