Hi xavier2005, glad to know you are enjoying our game. You pretty much nailed it with the issues you described.
We will probably add more hiding spots as the map grows bigger and the player has to venture further away from the control room.
As well as adding more item variety. We just need to come up with new consumable items for the player besides the batteries and energy drinks. Those ideally, those could be found inside the boxes that lay around the map, giving them a purpose beyond being simple destructible obstacles.
It true that the story start is a bit rough around the edges, we originally planned to add an intro or cut scene at the start of the first night, but we haven't got to it yet.
Hopefully we will get to sort these issues as the development progresses. Thanks a lot for your feedback. It was really helpful to keep improving our game.
