How does your game fit the theme?
You are stuck in a recurring nightmare, in a loop that you can reset by falling asleep. The theme of the loop is also represented graphically by the number 8, which is used subtly throughout the game (in the title itself, the music with 2x8 bits with loops as well, 8 rooms…). We plan to improve the loop system by allowing players to keep their items between each loop and shortening the duration of each loop accordingly so that the player takes full advantage of the loop mechanic. We were going to add it, but last-minute bugs left us no time!

(Optional) What would you like to be called if GMTK features your game?

Loved this! It has good atmosphere, good camera works, and good design. A shame I cannot beat it though, allowing players to retain clues would really elevate the experience. Also liked the killer plush's design!

Loved it! The art and color palette were awesome, and that tight camera in small spaces really made it creepy to go into new rooms. The music also nailed the spooky vibe. Great job :)

Nice job! The art looks incredible! You feel the unsettling mood. I just wasn't sure what's exactly happening in the game before reading the itch page.

Atmospheric and beautiful art! Changing the color palette after each sleep and revealing some mysteries is really cool!
