I was definitely freaked out the entire time . good atmosphere.

Captures the atmosphere really good! The sound is amazing, the baby creeped me out a little. Not sure if that was intentional. The text boxes didn't fit the style which took me out of the immersion a little but all in all, great submission!

Bug: it's rather hard to escape the parents but at the same time also not necessary. The light told me a couple of times that I was caught but the game never ended so I just kept running around until I got all the cookies and won. 

If you find the time, I'd be happy for some feedback on our game as well. :)

I love the tutorial being the little fly near him. The game was fun and I liked the risk factor. Well done!

Really liked it :) I couldn't find the last cookie but it was still very fun and it was really cool to see a horror game in this jam!

I wasnt expecting a horror game in this jam but it turned out better than i thought it would be :D

Good job.

The escape button does not work for me to start the game. Is there an alternative??

Developer

Ohh i haven't put a button to start the game ? Do I need to?

Maybe for the web version, you have to 

Developer

You mean when we press escape , the game should start?
