A downloadable Manikins for Windows

When a writter runs out of ideas for their next horror book, what could sparkle inspiration ? Visiting an abandoned building ? It could be, depending on what lies inside ..

Made during 3 month on Unreal Engine 5 by the Manniteam of ETPA Montpellier, France.

During our second year of video games studies, we made our first project with Unreal Engine 5. 

[ UPDATE 11.06 ] : WASD Available !

Love the concept and am curious where this story could go!

Slightly upset there is no "true ending" for collecting all the cards but had fun none the less


Hey, thanks for the comment i appreciate it. But as i see the video is private and i can't open it ...

Yo, i watched your video, first of all thank you so so much for your feeback ! I thought that's the  most complete & interesting test i've ever seen ! I was the main dev and i'm so glad to see some people testing this little buggy & laggy baby :P. All you said was true there is multiple issue that we knows about but we can't fixed it at the time. 
I think you missed an information : that was a game developped by 6 little guy ( and 1 dev ). And it's a project for school ( was the 2 nd year school project ). It doesn't have the pretention of big polished game.
We done it with love and sweat, but there is mooooore to polish and we know about that !

Thank you again so much for your time & your feeback !

Youre welcome, its a beautiful idea for a game that should be carried on. School project turned to big game, I support.

Really cool game, with nice mechanics and story. It could be better optimized but I still enjoyed it a lot

Hey thank you so much for your feeback, we know about issues, but thank you ! 

Fun little short of the parts that really got me.

Thank you so much for making such a horrific game. I hate Mannequins and you really solidified that fear for me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7z4n2d7yznc

Haha thank so lot for your time & feedback ! We are very glad that we've solidified your fear ... 

I think this was the creepiest mannequin horror game I have played. I got really scared. I loved the art style. the build up and the way it was done. I said my feedback in the video. I hope you do produce more games! I would love to see more from you! Here is my video

Hi thanks you very much for your time and feedback we really appreciate it! We are very happy that you enjoyed your experience. New games/ prototypes are coming soon stay tuned !

This was pretty decent. Performance/optimization needs to be worked on though, at the part with the hallway full of robots the frame rate tanked. Overall, not bad. Made a video on it.

WE know about the issue on framerate and performance sorry for this ...

This is an awesome, creepy mannequin horror game that had me on the edge of my seat navigating this factory! I appreciate the story and the subtle detail to choose your gender, even though I think that it could be more differentiated with the gender you play as. This game has some serious creepy moments as well. I think it could use a bit more polishing to make some of the rooms not so framey, however, I enjoyed this experience a lot!

Hey,

Thanks a lot for your feedback we really appreciate it, and we hope you enjoyed your experience

I did, it was a good game and would love to see it grow more if you have that planned, if not I'll keep an eye out for your future content.

It's so kind thank you ! This game was a school project so i don't think his gonna have a new one ... :/

Your Game is Cool but need optimization because it's losing so much frames. 4/5

Hey,


Yes we know about this issue and we hope we will be able to fix this someday

PLEASE GIVE ME MORE OF THIS GAME!!!!!

Hey,


Thank you ! Maybe one day...

This was a really well designed game and it was extremely creepy. I really love the game mechanics as well. Good job!

Hey,


Thank you so much we hope that you loved it :)

Holy fricking crap, this was scary. I've slowly hated mannequins more and more and this just made me hate them ten times as much. The game was really great; the sounds were so freaky and well implemented and the mannequins twitching and jerking about made them so fricking scary, and add the sounds into the mix, it was really scary.

The only thing I might suggest to change/update is the flipping controls for the items when you pick them up; they seem to be tethered to the European keyboard setup and turning the parts around didn't work properly (but that's just me as I wasn't used to the settings.)

Though it was slightly unoptimised, I thought the game was absolutely great. The environment was packed and really spooky and made the mannequins even scarier, can't wait for the full release, keep up the great work and good luck! It was a terrific game!

Hey, 


Thank you so so mutch for your feedback ! Love it ! We hope we could optimize and continue to increase this game.

AMAZING!  I LOVE IT!  I NEED MORE OF IT!!! 5 STARS!

Yo ! 


Thank you so match !!!

This game is my worst fear, i got so speechless. love it

Hey,

Sorry for you worst fear haha, so glad to read that !


Played yours at 17:07. What a promising game! I wished it was a demo for a full game.

The optimisation could do with some work, I've got a fairly good PC and it struggled with framerate towards the end.

But in terms of a horror game, brilliant effort! Good mechanic with the torch too.

I hate mannequins (I mean Manikins)

Check out my video :)

Hey,

We saw your video and its so cool. We appreciate that review ! 
And we hope we could make a full game after that .... why not ! 

you are every welcome! 

Nice game !

Hey,

We loved your video. And if you like the design its perfect !
Thank you so mutch.

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the video, and you're very welcome! 

Just uploaded this game on my channel. I loved t. It was creepy as hell and just a well made game with a great story! Highly recommend playing it. Here's my video if you're interested in watching. (Posted your game and your page links in my description)

Hey,


We are so glad that it makes you feel it was creepy as hell.

Love your video 

Thanks! Loved the game! Thanks for checking my video out! :)

I definitely got the feeling of fear.  this game should definitely continue.. i loved this game.

Hey,

Hope you will recovery from your fear feeling

Cool game!

Thank you !

This is a very very nice little game thank you for giving me an insight into how writers get their stories.

Hey,

Thanks for you're video ! This is how we imagined that 

Good game. Gave me the creeps big time.

Hey,


Thanks a lot, that was the objective so that's good ;)

I am really surprised by this game. The only downside was the zqsd keys, but the rest was very good. It's realy admiring you did 2 different intros and endings to give the player the chance to choose his/her gender. Really though for times, and scary others. I just wished there were more objects to interact to give the character inspirations, just like in the beggining. Keep up the good work.

Hey,

Thank you so mutch for your feedback. We appreciate that, and we hope we will be able to add more interactible objects. 


Thanks again

Wood is alive. Are mannequins...? Play this game and you'll find out one way or the other. Nothing but praise for this game. Loved the sense of humor. Loved the puzzles. Loved the atmosphere. Big thumbs up and kudos to all involved. You did a great job!

Hey,

Thank you so much for your feedbacks !

We are so glad of this, this is why we are working so hard, create some experience and let people to live them.

Hope you enjoyed it !

This was a very creepy game. Great work! 

Thanks a lot for your feedbacks we appreciate that.

Salut, je viens de tester le jeu, il troune tres bien sur ma machine, des petites difficultés avec moins de puissance, le jeu est beau, je ne suis pas fan du genre, mais je me suis laisser emporter pas l'histoire ! :) l'idée de la lampe torche a dynamo pour la recharger est une riche idée :) 

Bonjour,

Nous sommes ravis que l'expérience vous ai plu ! En effet nous avons connaissance de quelques difficultés d'optimisation de certaines parties. 

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour !

The game's interesting and it was enjoyable to play as I pump the flashlight to stop the Mannequin from attacking. I did notice there was some areas in the game where I noticed the fps drop. I would look into optimizing those areas. I also wasn't able to use the wasd keys, but that's mainly because I was on an older version of the game. Other then that, nice game.

Here's my channel for other games I have played. https://www.youtube.com/c/Levont

Hey,

Thanks a lot for your feedback, and yes as you know we've updated the game last day to fix the WASD.
We know about the opti but it requires few days working on and we don't really have time for it ... 

Thanks again

I will be playing this live 6/13 around 630-7 EST =).

https://www.twitch.tv/twallsx4

Hey,

It's so cool ! As i Know you will be the first streamer on this game ;)

Maybe at the end of ur game session we can talk about the game and his developpement on live ;) 


Hope you will enjoy it 

Good game! Can be improved on, slightly predictable but very well designed! Also that keyboard layout was something I'd never seen before

lmao

Hey,

I saw ur video on YT, first of all you have to know that in france we are using ZQSD for moving cause keyboard is differently organised.

And we add the WASQ control for english config so if u want to try again with good controls u can try.

This game looks exciting but I cant look around. I picked PC controls but when I went into the menu it showed a controller and there was no way to look around so I was stuck looking straightforward. Is there any way to fix this because I want to play this game?

Hey, 

We take this in consideration and we gonna search to fix this issue, btw you can follow on IG for any question ; @bassou_art.

Ok i found the bug, the new .exe gonna fix it thanks for feedback
