Congrats to the dev on getting this to the top of the most played Itch games. Yes, it is horror. Yes,that is an oversaturated genre that appears everywhere here. Yes, this game has enough merit to stand out in a sea of seemingly similar titles. And the choice of title, 'Egg Fried Rice' is super weird but fortunately it isn't just about that.
It is a short narrative horror and it has some intriguing endings. It is unnerving and succeeds in leaning into a somewhat janky and low end look, making that actually fairly effective. Which is good.
For the devs of this game or any other indie creators stumbling onto this... if you want some more mobile type, PSX sort of low polycount 3d assets, maybe a giant library of textures to work from, note that I have thousands of assets on sale for under $2 right now.
That may prove useful to many of you, and there are a few little freebies there as well. If you miss this sale, also, recognize many US holidays have one day sales attached to them, So the next two, Labor Day and Halloween, for example, will have everything that's there now plus a lot of added updates. Keep an eye out for big new things there in the next few months. Thanks!
