# About Block Fear

Block Fear is a minimalist first-person survival horror game with a distinct retro, voxel aesthetic. You are dropped into the middle of a vast, dark, and rainy forest with only a gun and a battery-powered flashlight. The world is procedurally filled with trees, creating a dense and disorienting maze.

Your only goal is to survive and escape. Somewhere within the dark woods, a mysterious glowing portal awaits. You must navigate the treacherous terrain while fending off blocky, red-eyed monsters that will hunt you down relentlessly. Manage your limited resources—health, ammo, and flashlight battery—to stay alive long enough to find your way out. The oppressive atmosphere, created by fog, rain, and the limited cone of your flashlight, will keep you on the edge of your seat.

## How to Play

The objective of Block Fear is to locate the glowing purple escape portal hidden within the forest.

- **Explore:** Move through the dark, tree-filled environment to find the portal.
- **Survive:** Monsters roam the forest. They will chase you if you get too close. Use your gun to defend yourself.
- **Manage Resources:** Your flashlight's battery drains over time when in use. If it runs out, you'll be plunged into darkness. Ammo is also limited, so make every shot count.
- **Win/Lose:** Reaching the portal wins the game. If your health drops to zero from monster attacks, you lose.

## Features

- **Retro 3D Voxel Graphics:** A minimalist, blocky art style that creates a unique and eerie horror atmosphere.
- **Atmospheric Tension:** Navigate a dark, foggy forest with dynamic rain effects and a limited flashlight beam that intensifies the feeling of isolation and dread.
- **Resource Management:** Carefully balance your use of flashlight battery and ammunition. Every decision matters for your survival.
- **Simple &amp; Intense Combat:** Face off against relentless blocky monsters in fast-paced shooter combat.
- **Cross-Platform Controls:** Play seamlessly on desktop with a keyboard and mouse or on mobile with intuitive on-screen touch controls.

## Controls

**Desktop:**
- **Move:** W, A, S, D or Arrow Keys
- **Aim/Look:** Mouse
- **Shoot:** Left Mouse Click
- **Toggle Flashlight:** F Key

**Mobile:**
- **Move:** Use the on-screen joystick on the left.
- **Aim/Look:** Drag your finger across the right side of the screen.
- **Shoot:** Tap the bullet icon button.
- **Toggle Flashlight:** Tap the flashlight icon button.

## Tips & Strategies

- **Conserve Your Battery:** Your flashlight is your most important tool, but its battery is finite. Turn it off if you feel safe to conserve power, but be ready to switch it back on instantly.
- **Know Your Enemy:** The monsters' glowing red eyes can be seen from a distance through the fog and darkness. Use this to spot them before they get too close.
- **Explore Systematically:** The forest is large and easy to get lost in. Try to move in a general direction or use the edges of the map as a guide to avoid circling back on yourself.
