I sadly could not escape, skill issue on my end, but this is a really cool concept and entry to the PICO-8 world, not many horror games I have seen there! Visaully and audiowise it is a spotless presentation, well done.

That was surprisingly fun. Thanks for the nightmares!

Did not expect an analog horror entry, much less one so well executed! The idea is original and channel switching really feels like it, it has some depth, it is felt. I also like the tune on the end, it sounds nostalgic.

You did an amazing job putting this together! :D

Took me awhile to realize that I should not be running immediately. I have to wait for the hand to appear. This was well made. I wish there was more!!

definition of executed well, thanks for this game!

Very good idea, and I love the execution too. Keep making games like this!

I liked your horror proposal. Every time you warned me not to go ahead, I thought of Homer Simpson's line, “I told you last night, no!” Hahaha, good job.

Really cool game, I like what you did with so few elements! As others have mentioned, I was really glad for the checkpoint before the chase. Keep up the great work!

Nicely done. Good thing I can just restart before the chase and don't have to go through everything again, especially as it took me a moment to understand how to "run".

Good use of sound too.

Great video game experience, just like I like to have at jams. Everything is well done: the graphics, the sounds, the little ideas here and there... I had a great time.

I haven't seen many horror games made in Pico 8; great execution on both the audio and visuals given the restrictions of the jam! It's very atmospheric. I very much appreciate the save point before the chase sequence as I definitely messed that section up one once or twice.

Great use of the TV medium. The sounds were just right, and every section felt just the right length to move things along.

Very atmospheric visuals. Really solid and effective minigame and the autosaves make it smooth to play. Good work!

What a cool vibe, the visuals and audio were really well executed.

Graphics and sound are top-notch. And I really liked that it restarts you from your last mistake, easy to keep going and eventually get it right. For a jam game especially, that’s a very nice way to behave :)

Wow, the animations are great. And very cool usage of the palette. Stick with this genre, you clearly have a knack for it!
