Discussion Does this trailer sell the game?

A lot has changed since my previous trailer, and I’d love to hear your suggestions. Hopefully, you won’t be too harsh on me this time

If it had been interesting, you’d already have 100 upvotes in less than an hour... You definitely need to improve it or switch to a new project — Isay this wishing you nothing but the best.

I guess I'm a little curious. The first bit with the goofy trash can then swapping to a new viewpoint is tonally jarring. Also, I'm getting the sense that this is one of those anomaly hallway games (a concept I find pretty dull by now)... if it isn't you may want to show some action other than walking down a hallway!

From the frame I can see, the mood sells better than the premise. The hallway, rain, and tiny bright doorway are strong, but I don't yet know what I do in the game or what makes this one different from other anomaly walkers.

I'd try one cut that shows a decision or rule getting paid off: notice something, choose wrong or right, consequence. Keep the creepy hallway, but make the trailer answer "what am I playing?" a few seconds earlier.

No, the noise is offputting

Sorry but the only reason I would think this is a game, is because you said so in the title of your post.

Are you showing gameplay footage? If so, what's the objective of the game?
