Working on Colony 2, the follow-up to Colony (released it a while back). I'm an indie dev from India, mostly solo/small team, and wanted to try a twist on the "return to the haunted place" trope this time — instead of the scares coming purely from the location, the dread builds around what's wrong with the player character themselves.

This clip is from the opening sequence — no jumpscares yet, just trying to build atmosphere and pacing before things go wrong.

Would genuinely love feedback on whether the buildup lands, or if it drags
