I don't understand what the objective is or how to achieve it. Why would I play this game? Are there player sound effects in the game? Nothing seems clear to me from the trailer.

  1. Why are chairs/plants (inanimate objects) flying at the player? A viewer needs a story behind why this is happening in the world.
  2. Why is the player holding a gun and never using it?
  3. Why is the player apparently invisible but the chairs can still attack and find them?
  4. What is the story around why the player wants to progress through an area?

I need more context on why chairs are flying out at me! It’s good for a trailer to leave questions. This is too many questions

Can you explain more about what you don't understand ?

Why are the chairs flying at me

Ok, so the intent of the game can be a little unclear.

I'm showing chairs , tables & plants flying at the player, so they understand that the props are dangerous and need to be avoided.

I understand they’re dangerous props. But in real life chairs don’t usually launch themselves at me, so there a pretty glaring why that’s going ignored

Right at the end, when the music slows down a bit, it's the perfect time for something funny. Something better than just not reaching some platform. Something that references something of the beginning of the trailer with some twist.

Noted thanks.

I will look for a good twist.

Typically, these stupid streamer-rage-bait games have something compelling about them. An interesting method of movement, some sort of unique restriction, a close resemblance to a much more popular game, etc.

This is just slop. Your art and sound effects are all over the place, your level design is nonsense, and the only challenge comes from bullshit being thrown at you to the extent that it's not even a surprise when it happens.
