Question, is it just me or did anyone else notice the numbers for a code spread around the high school map? I thought it was for something since it changes every game but so far I haven't found anything it goes to.
So I was playing a public game as slender and there was only one survivor left, but then someone left and it said that I had won when there was still someone alive. Is there any way to fix this? I felt kinda bad for the survivors :(
Also, I would LOVE it if there was a tutorial or something where you could practice revives from both maps, or being slender with an AI that looks around systematically, or just a general guide to survival. In this little practice place, you could have elements from both maps and you could make lots of secrets that they can find, gotta love those secrets ;)
Anyway, just some ideas but 10/10, love this game. Plz fix that thing above, would hate for someone's game to get screwed over because of that.
Hey, thanks for the feedback! I am aware of this bug, and have been trying to fix it but haven't had much time to work on this game lately due to college. The bug happens when an outside spectator leaves the game, it actually thinks that an actual survivor died, which means that the game could think there are 0 survivors left, even though there are still people alive. I don't think it happens every time, but there must be some certain condition that thinks a real player left, rather than a spectator. I'll definitely have more time to work on this over the summer, and hopefully I'll bring a big update along with it! :) Thanks again <3
Of course! Thanks so much and I totally understand the time problem. I'm so excited for the next update! Also, do you have a map of Slender High by chance? If not I totally understand, keep making this game awesome!
Thanks for the feedback! I've already sketched out the design of a new map, but haven't had time to actually make it due to college. Maps take a long time to make and the whole process takes around 6 months on and off with school and free time. I also do plan on adding many more skins, I've updated the skin system which makes adding new skins a bit easier and more automatic, so there should be many new skins with every game update! I had thought about adding different game modes / minigames, but had not yet thought about story mode! It sounds like an interesting idea, especially with the multiplayer aspect. Thanks! :)
the flashlight points towards the mouse, but also cannot be shined behind the player which is why it snaps sometimes when you turn. I've been trying to think of ways to make it cleaner but haven't had any good ideas yet
It's a great game, I like the gameplay, you don't see many games like this, I do have one request but it's minor I was hoping you could put a chat in the game like for example you could press "T" to open chat or any other key. But that should be all thanks for making such a fun game!!!
Thanks for the feedback! I've always been meaning to make an open chat, but it has been a little rocky when posting to other sites. They don't allow open / unmoderated chats probably for a good reason, and I had assumed itch was the same. The only good use a chat would have would be for the public servers to talk to the other players, and I would have to make two separate versions of the game to post on itch vs the other sites. Unfortunately, I don't think a chat will be coming into the game anytime soon unless some rules change.
lol, I have a system in place that auto bans the public queue host if they kick too many players. It is set to around 10, but I'll probably lower it for the next version. sorry about that, that sounds pretty annoying :p xD
Care to clarify? What part won't work? Will the entire game just not load, or is it something with the multiplayer? It's kind of hard to help you or fix the game when all you say is that it doesn't work. It might be something with the system or browser you are using, google chrome usually works but other browsers have tended to not work. Also the internet you are using could prevent the multiplayer from working since some school or public internets prevent the multiplayer system from connecting properly. Hope this helps
Hey, sadly this is an annoying bug with the multiplayer system since it is peer to peer which means some computers don't allow others to access their computer directly, so I have to set up other external servers to fallback to when this happens. I have a link to a beta version of the game where I added a bunch more fallback servers which should hopefully fix most of the cases where it crashes: https://grassboii.itch.io/slender-testing
Hey, thanks for the feedback. I am currently working on making a new map, and it is just about finished, you can see some sneak peeks on my discord server linked somewhere on this page :P
i didn't actually expected for you to answer but pls not only make that you play as slender and kill survivor CPUs but also make that you play as survivor with different survivor CPUs against a slender CPU, keep up the work man! (sorry bad english)
Are you using a chromebook or on school wifi? Those things tend to make the multiplayer not work. Sometimes the multiplayer can't connect when there are players using firewalls which can prevent players from fully connecting
hey m8 you should make a ingame chat, so we could communicate better (if there is an ingame chat, i'm sorry for putting this here. I probably just didn't see it)
Not sure if we are allowed to post this here, but the three of us have been playing for 3 hours straight to come up with this map, it was amazing clutch to get to the end, thanks for the game!!! :)
Looks great! On my discord you can find a crude map that I made from zooming out of the entire map so it should be very accurate. I really appreciate you guys taking the time to play and make this! I like how you marked the spots of some of the easter eggs xD
damn we thought there wasn't a map available haha, we have been looking for one but couldn't find it. But to be honest it was really fun to do like 15 playthroughs on nightmare mode figuring out where all the paths lead and try to map it on our own! If you want I could send you the png without our walking paths if you want to post it somewhere! The easter eggs were actually pretty handy to spot if you were on the right track when you decided to walk through the forest :D
I want to report that the public matches do not work very well and must be fixed for web browser version. From my point of view people are not able to fully connect with public lobbies and get kicked out due to being timed out.
Thanks for the feedback, I find that some people are having problems with the multiplayer, and how players never fully connect to their lobby. I've experienced this myself too. I'm not too sure how to fix it or what is causing it, but my best guess is that your computer's internal firewall or some firewall for your internet is blocking the players peer to peer connection since that is what the multiplayer uses. Basically every online game you can think of uses pre hosted servers, however there was no way for me to implement this. Peer to peer means that you are directly connecting to the other users computer and sometimes their pc (or yours) blocks their connection. The reason you see them join is because you are receiving the updated player count, but none of their other packets are coming through. I really have no idea how to fix this for the long term other than to pay for hosting, but if you have another person host hopefully you will find someone without the protection. Roughly 10-20% of computers block the p2p connections. Thanks again.
game works well, good customizability, but the selected map thing doesnt do anything. the online doesnt have loads of ping, also, this game would also go great on mobile. edit: oh there are mobile controlls which work great but can we get an apk or smth
Thanks for the feedback! I'm working on adding the second map, which is why there is the selected map thing because I thought I could get it done much earlier than was reasonable. Sadly, the only way to do mobile is with this website, and posting this to the play store would be quite expensive and is not my top priority.
this is potentially the best game ive found in 2022 so far, played with a friend and even though the servers were empty we had a pretty good time jumpscaring each other
a few suggestions:
1. if you have the mine craft torch as your flashlight could have it make block place and break sounds when you toggle it i think that would be funny
2. a little exit button for the emote menus so i dont have to press the menu button every time, unless theres already one i missed if thats the case nvm nvm nvm
3. my friend wanted a black and white striped shirt
also when youre facing forward the hair on one of the frames doesnt exactly line up with the head so theres a little one pixel line of head color on that frame, no big deal just something i noticed while in the character customizer
ill leave it off here 5/5 stars GOTY thank you for sharing this
Wow! Thank you so much that really means the world to me to hear that! I like the idea for #1, and I will probably do that in the upcoming update (whenever that comes out). For #2, pressing Space or Esc or Tab and the like will exit the emote menu. I didn't show that anywhere, but I guess now you know :P. For #3 I definitely plan on adding many more skins, and I'll gladly add that skin and many more as well. For the last part, I have definitely noticed that weird strip of pixels when facing certain directions, and I can't find what is causing it since all the player's images are all snapped to the same coordinates and I made sure they are. It would have to be some sort of pixel rounding issue and I'll also try to get that fixed for the next update. Thank you for your feedback, people like you motivate me to keep working on updates for this game! <3
Are you using the mobile controls or computer controls? If you are talking about the flashlight for computer, it follows your mouse and won't let you shine it behind your character.
Your gonna need to fix this when you make the next update cause now whenever i change my skin and put my username but right when click on either create, join and public quenue my skin changes and right when i exit it deletes my username i put and changes my skin again so your gonna fix that for your next update.
What browser are you using to play the game? (Like chrome or firefox etc...) It might be a problem with the game saving those values to your local storage since it might be failing to save your player information to a location. Chrome works fine and I just haven't tested it out on anything else. Let me know! :)
Just found out that today is not dealing with that problem anymore i think that day where i experience that problem was most likely some technical difficulties sorry about that
Yeah, I'm planning on re-balancing both Survivors and Slenderman's stats in the next update, as well as add some different maps to make it more balanced for smaller groups.

this game keeps growing
wish goodluck
someone had a chat saying "nice usernames" and "im inside your walls" it was funny not going to lie
it definitely wasn't me... :>
We cant find anything in the basement for the code
Question, is it just me or did anyone else notice the numbers for a code spread around the high school map? I thought it was for something since it changes every game but so far I haven't found anything it goes to.
Interesting... Rumor has it that it is used somewhere in the basement. Good luck! :)
ngl, I've played this game every which way, as both Slender and a survivor. Single, multiplayer, and local and still cant find it
So I was playing a public game as slender and there was only one survivor left, but then someone left and it said that I had won when there was still someone alive. Is there any way to fix this? I felt kinda bad for the survivors :(
Also, I would LOVE it if there was a tutorial or something where you could practice revives from both maps, or being slender with an AI that looks around systematically, or just a general guide to survival.

Thanks! Yes, I do have a map of the Highschool map, it is pinned in the general chat of my discord, which is linked somewhere on this game's page :P
Thank you so much!
I wish yall had more maps and skins maybe a story mode?

Grass
is the flashlight directions supposed to be like that? It keeps switching as I walk and doesnt always point in the direction im facing
the flashlight points towards the mouse, but also cannot be shined behind the player which is why it snaps sometimes when you turn. I've been trying to think of ways to make it cleaner but haven't had any good ideas yet
can you make more slender browser pixel art online games it would be cool
Yeah, I was thinking of adding different game modes or minigames to the main game so that everything would be in one place
It's a great game, I like the gameplay, you don't see many games like this, I do have one request but it's minor I was hoping you could put a chat in the game like for example you could press "T" to open chat or any other key. But that should be all thanks for making such a fun game!!!

Bro someone keeps banning me in public queue, why don't they add a private server?
lol, I have a system in place that auto bans the public queue host if they kick too many players. It is set to around 10, but I'll probably lower it for the next version. sorry about that, that sounds pretty annoying :p xD
Yeah I kept choosing a different name so they wouldn't kick me, but he just keeps kicking me he's not even kicking the other players.
add a free chat
and cpu humans that you can
1. Play along with in singleplayer
2. Play against as you in single player slenderman
3. add to your public lobbies
single player is glitched for me. i cant move at all but i can move the flashlight
won't work

oh ok
oh ok
nice game xb
Updaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate
wooooot wooooot
Nice update >:)
Thanks! It was in the works for a whole year :D
Great game, very pog
Hey i with friends want to play and i am loading and i am crashing from server, how can i fix it
Hey, sadly this is an annoying bug with the multiplayer system since it is peer to peer which means some computers don't allow others to access their computer directly, so I have to set up other external servers to fallback to when this happens. I have a link to a beta version of the game where I added a bunch more fallback servers which should hopefully fix most of the cases where it crashes: https://grassboii.itch.io/slender-testing
the game is awesome
please add more map
Hey, thanks for the feedback. I am currently working on making a new map, and it is just about finished, you can see some sneak peeks on my discord server linked somewhere on this page :P
ok thanks
i hope that u will improve your creations and u'll become one of famous game creators :->
Why do we need to drag bodies?
You drag bodies to locations where they can be revived. It's kind of a secret mechanic so you have to explore and find out where they get revived :o
woah
can u make it so you can download a single player mode
can add items and infinit teleport plz
survivor ai when?
Ooh, not a bad idea. It's going to be real tough to implement that but yeah that would be interesting to play against
i didn't actually expected for you to answer but pls not only make that you play as slender and kill survivor CPUs but also make that you play as survivor with different survivor CPUs against a slender CPU, keep up the work man! (sorry bad english)
did you used photon?
No, I used Construct's built in Multiplayer feature.
multiplayer dose not work
Are you using a chromebook or on school wifi? Those things tend to make the multiplayer not work. Sometimes the multiplayer can't connect when there are players using firewalls which can prevent players from fully connecting
ok thanks
please add hats and more character items pleaseee
Ha yeah, it is definitely planned for the future, but some bigger things need to get done before that!
lookin' forward to it!
hey m8 you should make a ingame chat, so we could communicate better (if there is an ingame chat, i'm sorry for putting this here. I probably just didn't see it)

where is link to your slender discord server?
There is a green link under the 'Development' and also the 'Help/Faq' tabs right under where you play the game
damn,I can't open link
bro please tell me where can I revive my friend's body? I tryed almost everything
PLEASE TELL ME WHERE AND HOOOOOW
You can't
very good! what is the game motor
The game is made using Construct 2
merci pour la réponse

ah thats fine, but i meant an apk file to itch.io, anyway, thanks for the clarification with the maps

slightly buggy the character controller. But interesting concept!
Are you using the mobile controls or computer controls? If you are talking about the flashlight for computer, it follows your mouse and won't let you shine it behind your character.
it wont let me move
If you are still having this problem, I'd like to know if you are using mobile or computer, and if computer then are you using a Chromebook?
same
Your gonna need to fix this when you make the next update cause now whenever i change my skin and put my username but right when click on either create, join and public quenue my skin changes and right when i exit it deletes my username i put and changes my skin again so your gonna fix that for your next update.

I am playing on chrome with a chromebook but earlier before the update in December 6 i didn't have that problem till the December 6 update came
Just found out that today is not dealing with that problem anymore i think that day where i experience that problem was most likely some technical difficulties sorry about that
No worries, and thank you for keeping me updated!
your welcome
now I can actually play the game, it's really good sugestions: adding proxies
no that we make the game way to hard
Love this game so much. The updates have been great and my friends play this almost all the time. 10/10
Thank you! It means so much to know that you guys are enjoying it!
can u make em faster?
Yeah, I'm planning on re-balancing both Survivors and Slenderman's stats in the next update, as well as add some different maps to make it more balanced for smaller groups.
This is GREAT but don't have so many people to play in multiplayer...
Thank you! I've gotten in a few packed lobbies before, but I'd say it is better to go in with a couple of friends!
Yes it is
beatfull game
