Saw this demo over a year ago and fell in love with the game, especially the implications of the giant chain! Hope development is going well and the game can be as good as you expect it to be! Keep up the hard work!
This demo was a lot of fun to play, and you guys did a great job, everything in the game is great, the story is interesting, the graphics are nostalgic, and everything is great, I hope you continue working on the game, it has incredible potential, so I'll be waiting for the full game
This one is really creepy. The vibe is really there.
Spoilerish:
The way the camera is set in the spiral staircase and the chain part... and as those bodies silently appear on the shore. Only thing I would change just a tiny bit is how those bodies move and run. They run too much like a normal person. I don't know, maybe make them take smaller steps but move as fast as now.
yeah i saw the release date it was set for july this year and i was very eager to play the full game since there has been in increase of silent hill/resident evil inspired games i wanted to add the pale to my collection.
Saw CJU Games play the demo of this and the giant chain being pulled into the ocean is what sold it for me. All the unanswered questions behind such a contraption, what it could be containing, is so intriguing to me. Confused me when I saw the name was changed from The Keeper to The Pale but I finally found the right page.
This was fantastic! Great controls, VERY good atmosphere and use of camera angles!
Only complaint:
The scenes between Arthur and Sarah could be a bit shorter for me (lots of text with hardly any camera movement). I first thought "eh" in the boat scene and was blown away when arriving at the coast, seeing all the details, lights etc. But that may just be me.
Really cool game honestly, kept me intrigued with the little details like the journal and dialogue to the bigger ones like the chain and the big scare. Lovely work anyways best of luck on the full version! If you wanna see my playthrough check here -
I run the Fixed Camera Appreciation Society on Steam - please let me know if we can help promote your game in any way (eg. we'd be happy to put out an announcement to our members about your demo here on Itch).
Again, thanks for that folks. The second I touched that generator I knew I was in for a blast. =D
Nice subtle detail of more and more bodies rocking up. I knew something horrible was about to happen and I was still so unprepared when it did! Keep up the good work!
Oh this was very good, so many questions, and so much wanting to play the full version! The scares, the atmosphere, the design, the sound, all of it was fantastic! Wonderful job!
I'm a sucker for PSX styled horror games and it's great to know that the immense creative talent necessary for building a game that could rival its honorary predecessors hasn't been lost. The inspired nuances are everywhere, from sound design to character creation; fixed camera angles and stilted movement are nothing but nostalgic and very well done. You've undeniably gifted me with something positive to look forward to in 2023...
* GLITCH: when standing directly next to a door while browsing the items menu the game will have Arthur proceed through the door (via sound cue) and a black screen will appear requiring a restart to continue playing as normal.
No problem! I've just created a Discord for Fixed Multicam devs. In case you're interested in talking to like-minded developers, let me know and I'll send you an invite...!
wowowowow! I had a BLAST playing this demo! I'm 100% buying the full game when it comes out! The story is already amazing and atmosphere is perfect! I will say sometimes the controls can be weird but I willingly looked over than for such a fun experience! If you wanna see my blind reaction here's a video! i would appreciate any support!
JUST STARTING THIS AMAZING GAME AND ITS WONDERFUL THIS IS JUST PART 1 THO CAN’T wait to explore the light out and I put my previous gameplay of The Keeper in the Description so you guys can also check that out and I did an reaction of the trailer and then we Continue on playing the actual Game so please give me a like you don’t have to subscribe but if u do I will really appreciate it but all I ask is can you guys like the video other than that I say thank you guys and thank you VIDE01 for making this incredible game and taking your time we all very much appreciate you very much
really enjoyed this game! very reminiscent of silent hill and old RE games, there is still so many questions to be answered at the end of this demo, i feel like the chains weren't holding the ghouls down there in the ocean, the end of the chain looked like a collar like a BIG collar, i think that it was holding a cathulu type monster and the ghouls were something to do with it, but im sure it will all be revealed in the full game which im really excited to play!, gameplay above if you enjoy be sure to hit that sub button guys!
Great demo! I was kinda fumbling around during the 1st half, trying to figure out what to do. But damn, it gets creepy as hell in the 2nd half. Can't wait to see more! Thanks for the fun!
Just played the first 20 minutes or so and I LOVE IT! It has this old-school RE1 vibe to it I adore so much ... GREAT game, looking VERY MUCH forward to the full version!
This is soooo rad! Perfectly captures that PSX nostalgia. I loved the third-person fixed-camera angles-- even the tank controls were a nice touch. The music was superb and worked well at enhancing the already grim, disquieting atmosphere. I'd say this demo is very well put together and that bodes well for the finished project. Definitely 5 stars. Keep it up!
P.S. The only thing I'd add to the game is maybe a heartbeat/health bar in the inventory screen. Also, some of the interactable objects didn't respond the first couple of times I tried to touch them, as if their "hitboxes" were too small.
Holy i freaken loved this game man i cant wait for your guys full game to come out, Such a good story to i love these type of horror style games keep up with the good work :)
WHOA! I totally fell in love with The Pale. Love the mood, the visuals, the sound design, the story... it's so classically GOOD. You folks are amazing. The project MUST go on!!!
cant wait for the full game to be released!!! i love everything about this game. but i did run into a glitch when i was getting chased by the dead people i ran inside the light house and came out i wasnt getting chased by the dead people which i had to load the game again. amazing game thought thank you for having a blast playing the demo.

the island of the pale favors a solidary existence fleeting from ones troubles only to encounter new mind disturbances
paths woven by twisting alcoves summon simple tasks for a determined venture
forward looking the expanding visions of a more deeply connected aphorism we flee for next summons

A very intriguing story and horror aspect. The chain part was comedy gold. A great game.
