Oh my fricking god I love this. The atmosphere is amazing, the vibes are amazing, a quite simple narrative but with a twist, and the simple yet effective horror, oh my god. You sir made me turn my lights on and look at every loading black screen to see if I saw that goddamn face again. I completely felt like I was the protagonist of one of those old creepypastas I used to read years ago. I'd just like to point out two small issues: when going from one of the webpages to the main page, the page is cut off at the bottom and I can't see the input field, and that one second puzzle is kinda confusing, I thought I had to decipher that caesar encoding but it didn't have anything to do with it. Still, these are really small issues and I'm impressed by your submission, I definitely got a new favorite for this jam. Amazing job

A terrifying atmosphere, but did I do something wrong? 

I'm stuck on a webpage that shows a 404 error.

Like physically stuck? Because that might just be a bug I never came across I’m not sure, also sorry for this being late you might’ve already solved your problem

So good you should be so proud of this damn. So creepy and recaptured the feeling of browsing paranormal sites just like this when I was a kid

Very cool, I really like the aesthetic of the game! Super clever to make it all look like an old computer from the 90s.

Ok, the sudden animated text is quite scary. Not very sure I win or not.

I am scared, but it was quite a nostalgia retro feels, remind me of those good old big ahh monitors.

Really immersive, loved the old browser designs and the ambient noise, made me uneasy like something would pop up haha great stuff!

I love how immersively retro this felt. The static and computer-running audio let me truly zone out and feel like I was browsing this site for real. If you're ever looking to build on this, a narrative suggestion: Since you've built so much intrigue into the site premise: Maybe your "404 page not found" content could be spooky as well, or lean into the mystery of why the site was never fully finished. Overall such a neat and unique experience to play!
