Cool game explaining how your body fights the cancer and how it hides itself among the other cells you have. Really enjoyable experience and thank you for making this! 2nd game.
THIS GAME WAS DISORIENTING AND ANXIETY INDUCING....I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT. I ONLY WIHED THERE WERE MORE LEVELS TO PLAY THROUGH. GREAT IDEA. KEEP IT UP!
Hey great game! The style was really cool and I enjoyed being confused for most of it haha. It was very well written and I think the message in it was well explored. It honestly made me so dizzy, but that's my lack of experience with first person games. Definitely recommend this game to anyone looking for a cool experience.
If you want to check out my playthrough, it's the third game I played.
Unfortunately, the game seems to crash at regular intervals and I'm not sure what's causing it, but I loved what I played. And when I say regular intervals I mean it. Like exact same time open every time. I don't even have to be playing the game. The same thing happens on the main menu. Weirdest glitch I've ever experienced.
This is an issue we are aware of but unfortunately do not have a clear solution to. We do know the issue is not caused by Perfect Vermin itself but instead an interaction with another program most often the users antivirus. Most users who have suffered from this issue have been able to get around it by making an exception for Perfect Vermin in their antivirus.
hello! I really enjoyed your game! I thought it was a very interesting, and had some deep meanings! I love the pacing of the game, especially! I will never smoke a cigarette after playing this game lol! I also recorded my walkthrough of the game!
Unfortunately I cannot enjoy the game as I have a weak laptop and a glitch like the person below. The TV man keeps telling me to get back into the elevator. It's a shame that I can't play.
Hey! It looks amazing from what I've played and seen! I also love the art style of it. However, I'm having an issue where the guy on the TV tells me to return to the elevator whenever I launch the game. This also happened to me on Steam. I'm able to destroy things, but once I ruined the office, I'm just stuck. I have Windows 10 and plenty of space free, so I can't find what's wrong. If anyone could maybe help me figure out what's going on, i'd be grateful.
Thanks for reading my very long and unimportant issue, have a great day y'all! And tomorrow! Past that good luck.
The issue you are describing appears on devices that are below Perfect Vermin's minimum system requirements.
If your system is above these requirements and the problem persists please make a post in our community discussions on Steam and we will look into it immediately.
Hey i can't play it myself (because i got a mac) but i've watched it. It was pretty disturbing (gave me some unsettling nights) but it's also pretty cool. And i've got a question.
SPOILER
So we found out that this story is about two things. Namely about the reporter reporting the killer who's running amok and killing his colleagues with the hammer and his cancer treatment. And my question is now ( because i'm not an expert by this topic) could he had survive anyways or just extend his life expectancy (referring to his cancer treatment)? Plus what was his relationship with his mother?
By the events of the game, there was nothing that could have been done for him. However if he had taken care of his body over the course of his life he likely could have extended his life by decades.
In regards to the newscaster's relationship with his mother there isn't much I could tell you that he doesn't say in the game. Other details about their relationship wouldn't really expand upon the narrative.
Hi, i downloaded the game on steam and i played for a few minutes and it crashed, i have a windows 10 i5, so it is compatible. i tried uninstalling and installing again and it happened again, then i went here to download it separately and it crashed afet 1 minute, i really want to play this game but i dont know how to
I'd encourage you to post to Perfect Vermin's Steam discussions page if the issue you are having is with Perfect Vermin on Steam.
People experiencing frequent crashes are often attempting to run Perfect Vermin on a device below Perfect Vermin's minimum system requirements.
So even though you may have a compatible version of windows your computer itself might be falling below these system requirements.
If the issue does not seem to be caused by your system being below Perfect Vermin's requirements please make a post to Perfect Vermin's Steam community discussions describing your issue in greater detail and we will look into the issue immediately.
android? kinda involuntarily nomadic w my family atm and ancient (but very appreciated) netbook w a twacked network adapter - but excellent tab when i set it up right. you made it for Linux … so can you tweak it for android and make an apk? please? im stressed out and bored at the same time…
Mac development is something we looked into and experimented with during Perfect Vermin's development. Unfortunately Unreal 4.18 which Perfect Vermin uses as an engine is incompatible with Mac devices, and as no member of the team has experience with the Unreal Engine 4's engine code, Mac support ultimately proved impossible.
For future projects Mac support is something that we will be looking into at an earlier point in development to hopefully avoid issues like this in the future.
What a well-made game! This one's story really hit hard, and the physics and gameplay were so satisfying, but it almost made me feel bad to enjoy a game with such a sad story! It's the second game I played in this 3 scary game compilation:
Amazing job Devs, looking forward to your future projects!
ok ok... when i play the game if i look around or move a bit the camera the news guy appears, and says to go back to the elevator to do it again, and then i cant do nothing, just move around i cant break the door or something is just that... very sad because this looks like a good game :(

A great example of doing a lot with a little. Perfect setup and delivery, great use of video game tropes against us at the start, totally stuck the landing. Good job!
HELLO, gotta say it was pretty fun smashing & breaking stuff in the office; though it didn't last long sadly it was still fun non-the-less to mess around.
I believe it's about cancer. Treatment is about finding those "impostor" cells that start showing up where they shouldn't be and destroying them. Although not desirable, the process usually ends up harming regular cells, too. And naturally, it's all on a timer.

I loved the amount of destruction the smashing did! Very sad story though.
Can you make this able to be played on browser
Unfortunately the Unreal Engine 4 which Perfect Vermin uses cannot be run in a browser. So a browser version of Perfect Vermin is likely impossible.
Unless you guys somehow find a engine that will do keep the game the same and that is browser supported
can you make it so we don't need to download the engine to play. like could you make a version with unity?

Amazing game, at first i thought it was just a destruction simulator, but then it got so good. Amazing story and gameplay.
hello! I really enjoyed your game! I thought it was a very interesting, and had some deep meanings! I love the pacing of the game, especially! I will never smoke a cigarette after playing this game lol! I also recorded my walkthrough of the game!
Absolutely outstanding game good job mate (The second game i played)
Unfortunately I cannot enjoy the game as I have a weak laptop and a glitch like the person below. The TV man keeps telling me to get back into the elevator. It's a shame that I can't play.
Great. This game is a smoking cessation game
This game was so cursed.. BUT AMAZING!
This game was outstanding. So many emotions in one game. I was not expecting it at all! Thank you so much for this!
I just watched a playthrough of this via Alpha Beta Gamer - it's so cool :)

I see thank you for the information your game is pretty impressive
Hello. First of all, developer, thank you for making a good game.
Can I ask if it's okay to play this game on my personal broadcast?
Sure thing! As long as you provide a link to the game either here on Itch or on Steam we encourage it. Thanks for checking the game out!

Good game loved the havoc i wrecked.
Did a 4 minute review of this one recently. Excellent game, give it a try.
This video is fantastic, I wholeheartedly recommend anyone to give it a watch!

I can tell you by the way the level is loading in your computer is below minimum the minimum system requirements for the Unreal Engine 4.
Nothing we can do I'm afraid.
can you add an options to disable effects or small objects
Hey Jason,
I responded to your other post with information relevant to the issues you are describing.

this game crashes after a few seconds for me and idk why

THE HUNT IS ON!

Hello! This was quite the fun play! Here is my gamplay video
This game is on steam too.
This was such an interesting concept and such a way to talk about illness! Great game! Here's my gameplay!
HELLO, gotta say it was pretty fun smashing & breaking stuff in the office; though it didn't last long sadly it was still fun non-the-less to mess around.
This game's pretty cool, man. I always enjoy playing something weird. Thanks for the fun!
what exactly is the story here? I feel like I might be a bit dense because I'm not exactly grasping it
I believe it's about cancer. Treatment is about finding those "impostor" cells that start showing up where they shouldn't be and destroying them. Although not desirable, the process usually ends up harming regular cells, too. And naturally, it's all on a timer.
No Commentary :)
This game feels so satisfying to play! The way everything breaks and sounds! This is such a wonderful and bizarre experience!
We really enjoyed playing & discussing Perfect Vermin on Indie Game Club (it’s like a book club for indie games)!
