Touch controls would be a terrible way to play it yeah, but there are quite a few great android ports that are intended for use with a controller, sure they still throw in half assed touch controls but its not the way they intend for it to be played. A good example of this would be the great max payne 1 port (or any rockstar android game really). There are also games that REQUIRE a controller like hotline miami 1 and 2. You could easily just port it without the touch controls too. I replay Silent Hill 1 like once a month, always on android. Its much more convenient than on pc.

Thank you for your response and thanks for answering the questions! Also this would definitely be a successful game on android. Most people play these games with a controller on android and android is the go to system for many (myself included) when it comes to emulation and retro style games so this game would fit perfectly on there. There's a huge market for these types of games on there man. Have a nice day!
I have a few questions about development and your goals with this project, it would be awesome if you could answer them. Here they are:
1. How long do you reckon it will take to finish the game, or at least be able to release an early access build with the core game fully complete?
2. Do you plan on releasing any more demo content? Maybe an extended demo when more of the game is complete?
3. Do you plan on keeping the silent hill art style and feel, or do you plan on creating something different of your own? (personally I would love it if you kept the style but still added new ideas, which you already did with the falling mechanic)
4. How long do you plan on making the game?
5. At what price point do you plan on releasing the game at?
6. Do you plan on release the game on other platforms other than pc? (personally I think it would be great on android and ios)
Thank you.
You're welcome man! Thanks for the response! Ill definitely keep an eye out for this game's full release if it happens and devlogs/updates. I really hope this game doesn't get abandoned like a lot of psx projects.
Yeah with the sewers they wanted to make something different but they didn't know how to do it well due to the limited hardware and them being unexperienced since 3d was new tech at the time. They also didn't have the budget, it was too linear as a result and really killed the pacing.
This demo is one of the few things that brought me joy in 2020 so you definitely deserve money for this, it was a though year for everyone. Thankfully the pandemic didn't effect me at all financially (but it affected me in many other ways) so I would gladly donate.
I loved this so much man! This captures the exact same vibe as Silent Hill 1. Actually this has the potential to be better than silent hill 1! Even though Silent hill 1 one of my favorite games of all time it has a few weak parts, like the sewers and it has some pacing issues too, like almost all early 3d games. With this you can perfect silent hill 1s unique style of horror! Please continue working on this. If you could set up a way to donate I would gladly do so!
