Visuals are so on point! Music and sound design is immaculate as well! Only complaint is the flashlight mechanic is quite is easy to exploit, so much so that spamming all directions continuously always wins you the game. Putting a limit to flashlight use like adding a battery mechanic like in FNAF would add a lot more challenge to the game. Overall 4/5 game for me!

Holy fuck is it creepy. The visuals, lighting, music, jumpscares all perfectly capture that horror appeal that makes you want to cry for your parents (haha). The simplicity of the main mechanic (i.e. the 3 plushies) forces you to focus on them and stay on your toes all the time. This was a great design decision that makes Hypnagogia extra scary.

However, the gameplay implementation itself was a bit lacking. Although conceptually amazing, being able to flash quickly between all 3 directions renders the plushies useless. That is my only gripe with this amazing game, which otherwise I would ask for more content.

Congrats on the jam!
