I really liked this eerie horror game and finding all the endings as well.  Good job!

I liked the game and the puzzles, the story is interesting, I liked that can discover more about the story, you did a good job!

Gameplay PT-BR

thanks so much :)

Really liked the game. A nice story, some good challenges, and overall a great time!

Thanks so much for playing the game, I really appreciate it! <3

It's ok but would be better if on the part where you are trying to hide from the crew member you could run because they move fast and I couldn't make it so I didn't finish your game and I would have liked to, but I tried like 15 times. 

The timing is not the easiest thing, but once you figure out when to move, its actually fairly easy, nowhere near impossible. But thanks anyways for giving the game a try!

Fun, pretty chill horror experience

Had a interesting story that started to become reveled as you played.

Enjoyed learning about the cult and what it was doing.

Wasn't too terrifying but gave me chills here and there.

The ambiance I think got to me the most.

Got both ending and all 5 figurines.

Curious if the cookie clicker game would yield anything new but didn't stick around long enough to try. 

Good Job Buschey!

Thank you so much for the kind words!

I'm quite bad at these types of games, but I had a really good time c: I ended up inadvertently getting both endings while trying to get my revenge on the flashlight crew member haha. One of the endings really got me spooked for a while.

My only wish is that you please add in an option to leave the captain's room and go shoot that guy on the deck.


You can't shoot that person on the deck, he is my best friend and went with me through hours of playtesting :)


Thanks for the kind words tho <3

Cool a$$ game, thanks!

Thanks for playing!

I played your game for my channel and enjoyed the air of mystery as you slowly find out everyone's story and the main story through the note and environment also I like lovecraftian type stuff

I also spent like 5 to 10 minutes on the cookie clicker part 

Thank you so much for the kind words! It means the world to me <3

クルーズ船から逃げているだけだと思っていました。エンディングの発散が主人公に人生の選択を強いるとは思わなかったので、本当に驚きました。素晴らしいゲーム!

どうもありがとう!

😊👍

Thanks so much for playing my game! <3

Great game! Though unfortunately there is a glitch where if you open the laptop, none of the icons show up, leaving you softlocked and having to restart. Other than that, I liked what you did with this!

Thanks so much! I will look into fixing this problem!

VERY nice, interesting approach and quite spooky! Great work!

Thank you so much! <3

From a name like DEAD CRUISE, i really expected a stereotypical zombie game ( i like those ). I was pleasantly surprised by the turn this took and how unique it was. A very linear game which has a surprising amount of replayability. This was great ! 

I made a video on your game if you're interested :)

Thanks for taking the time to play the game, it really means a lot :)

2nd game, a bit confusing but i am notorious for being an idiot, but good nonetheless.

Your thumbnail is already awesome, thanks for playing my game! :D

Loved it!! Great game with lovecraftian vibe. Nice work!

Thanks for your kind words! :)

Thank you for making this game! Loved the cookie clicker part LOOL

Thank you so much! :)

I failed a chess puzzle (because I didn't read the letter first lol), and it became inactive, I can't interact with it anymore. Tried to die - didn't help.

Well, if you could try again, it would be trial and error, you can always start the game again for the second ending :)

Got all of the secrets, its a great game, well done!

Thanks for the kind words! <3

Well, this game had me think beyond the normal jump startles. Sometimes it took time to figure out what to do next and sometimes I just stumbled forward on a lucky streak :o]

Overall a compelling game with nice twists and turns that encourage the player to keep on trucking.Then there's the end...

Curious? Just watch or play the game. You won't be disappointed.

I didn't run into any bugs, hiccups or snags. Kudos to all involved.

Its a solo dev project, thank you so much for your kinds words! <3

@ Buschey,

Solo, you say? Even more impressive. I'm already following you and hope there's more of this to come in the foreseeable future. In me you have a fan :o]

so good i love it keep up the good work

Thank you <3

Very Cool Game Even though I Got Lost On One Part that wasn't even a puzzle

Thank so much for playing! :)

Thanks!

I couldn't find the last cat statue!  Does that open up a 3rd ending?  This was a VERY fun game!  Thank you for making it for us all to enjoy!

Thank you so much for playing the game, you have a very calming voice, yet when you read Lewis' letters, I could not stop laughing :)

<3

Thank you for such an awesome compliment!  I really enjoyed Dead Cruise!  Can’t wait to play more of your games!!!

Fantastic game!!! The puzzle-solving and the two endings are amazing!!!

Thank you so much, it really means a lot! <3

Really cool game, liked it a lot, the only complaint I have is during the sneak section no mater what I did I would get seen by the flashlight. I was able to get past it, but I think that part should be a little more forgiving other than having to do it prefect. Other than that great game!

The Flashlight-Section was done with raycasts, its pretty easy when you know where to stand, tho :)

Oh, ok, that explains why it only worked when I stood in a certain spot.

This was not bad. Definitely creepy. Made a video on it.

I like it! Got a bit stuck on the 2nd keypad puzzle but knew I was close and finally got it. I'm been working on my own horror game that takes place on a boat, so I thought it was super interesting to see another! Keep up the good work.
