They need to change the knife sound effect when attacking a zombie, it doesn't sound like it's actually hitting anything. Looks cool.

Hope there's an option to turn off all that UI, it's hideous - especially the bar that appears as the character starts to run.. looks interesting otherwise but nothing too special other than the nostalgia hooks.

The name is something like "Dead House Resuscitation", this is a literal translation. It really looks like a prototype... Well, in the end it could be a good experience...

This is Vaccine and is already out on PC and PS4.

You quickly try to kill through a generated house and you level up. So it is a Rogue Survival Horror game with a timer?

"Rainy Frog" seems like a randomly generated joke name.

Game doesn't really give me an RE vibe. The maps that they've shown in the trailer seem linear, there's some exping and the fights looked like they are more action oriented. The visuals, music and sound effects give a remote impression that this could be a horror game, but the gameplay didn't really look like a survival horror to me.

I was going to say that this looks an awful lot like that roguelike on steam, and so it is.

Haven't played it myself, but what impressions are out there are pretty bad.

Is the house layout procedurally generated? Could be really neat in an otherworldly way, as in the architecture along a 2D plane has no real-world logic to it.

Absolutely LOVE this kind of style and gameplay, can't stress how much I like the look of the inventory.
The atmosphere is great too.

The time limit stuff however, not a big fan.

Also, デッドハウス 再生 can be translate to ''Deadhouse Reborn'' or something similar.

Low polygon ps1 titles have no nostalgia or artistic value.

That's why I want a Dino Crisis remake instead of playing the original through emulators with enhancements.

The studio also made FreezeMe, which was a really good game, so I am positive it will be a good game.

They kinda beat me to the idea of making a "retro 3D" game where the "pre-rendered" backgrounds are actually real time using modern graphics and lighting and are only pretending to be pre-rendered. But the backgrounds could use some extra effort, it manages to look a bit worse than RE1, actually.
