Those jump scares ><
This game is very creepy. You nailed the atmosphere. Good job!
Hehe holy mother of jumpscares, batman!
The mood of this game is pretty cool, plus the puzzle mechanics. It took me awhile to grasp that I could keep doors closed, but then I started carving my path in a clever way and got to the ending. I had to restart the game as well because I accidentally used the water mug as a key lol.
It's weird. The monster isn't THAT scary looking, but for some reason, I would always jump when I saw it haha. Maybe it was the camera, the sound effect, I don't know, but it seems like you nailed it.
Good job!
I really enjoyed the scream!! Fun! But I am unable to reach the end. Maybe later with more time, but I liked!=)
Cool interpretation of the prompt, I really like the swapping between night and day mechanics. Good job!
Thank you!
The first few jump scares really got me! This is a thoughtfully designed horror-puzzle that fits the loop theme very well. Even upon completion of the game it had me thinking "is it still part of the loop?"
On my first play-through, I ran into a bug where I used the water mug as a key and was unable to swallow the pill. I restarted and was able to solve the puzzle in 9 dreams! The importance of the light from the windows connecting to the location of the monster immersed me into this character's nightmare. Well done!
Whoops, silly bug, anyways I'm glad you enjoyed the game! 👍
I like the how the concept ties into the theme, good work
