It was neat to add a mini puzzle whilst trying to hide from the reaper! It took a few tries to understand the goal, but I was able to escape. Solid premise!

Developer

Thanks sun! And was a fun little one to build :)

At first I wasn't sure if hide and seek was all there was to it, but figuring out the hidden objective made it feel worth poking around! Would love to see what you'd have done with the art direction if you had more time; I think the billboard art style was pretty unique.

Developer

Thanks so much, Pond! The artist working with us on this one was incredible! We lucked out ^__^

I was not expecting such an adrenaline rush when trying to run away from the grim reaper looking fella! 

Great work with the tension!  :)

Thanks - and let me know if you ended up figuring out how to get in the manor...
