Looking for honest feedback on our first horror game demo.

It’s been almost two years since we first started working on this project, and we’ve finally reached a point where we can let others experience it. The demo for our horror game, Bhangarh: The Untold Story, is now up on Steam.

Steam Link

If you enjoy horror games, we’d really appreciate it if you could give the demo a try and let us know what you think.

Since this is a demo, your feedback is incredibly valuable to us. If you encounter:

  • Bugs or glitches
  • Performance issues
  • Gameplay problems
  • Anything that feels off

Please report it through the "Report Bug" section so we can fix it before the full release.

We’d also love to hear your thoughts in a bit more detail if possible:

  • Audio: We’ve put a lot of effort into building a dynamic audio system where sound changes based on the environment (reverb, echo, spatial effects, etc.). Did it feel immersive? Did it react naturally to different spaces, or did anything feel off?
  • Environment: Did the atmosphere and setting feel believable and engaging?
  • Jumpscares: Were they effective, predictable, or too frequent?
  • Mechanics: How did the gameplay feel overall? Was movement, interaction, or pacing smooth?
  • Overall experience: What stood out to you the most, and what didn’t work?

If you enjoy the demo, leaving a Steam review would also help us a lot as a small indie team.

Weird shadow/artifact appears while flipping journal pages in UE5

Hey everyone,

I made a journal/notebook system in Unreal Engine 5, and I’m facing a strange issue during the page flip animation.

Whenever the page flips, this weird shadow/artifact suddenly appears on the page. It looks really glitchy and breaks the visual quality.

Things I already tried:

  • Disabled “Cast Shadow” on the flipping page
  • Checked the light settings
  • Tried tweaking some shadow-related values

But the issue is still happening.

I attached a video for reference.
