One of the few horror games from the game jam I have thoroughly enjoyed. Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much.

Submitted

Reached around 25 and very fun up to that point, but every time I killed a monster its remains turned pure white and its glow took up half the screen, resulting in me repeatedly dying because I couldn't see. Same thing happened when I dropped water.

Developer

I am sorry you experienced this issue. Thank you for the feedback.Did you play the Web version? It might be a specific browser glitch, though I am not completely sure. You can try the downloadable version instead. Hopefully, this graphical bug won't appear there.

Submitted

It was the web version. Thanks for the response :)

Submitted

I'd never played any horror games before as I'm always too scared of getting scared. But I played your game and I really enjoyed it. I reached about 40 and then died 😂 Great Game!

The game is truly enjoyable and ranks among the best games I’ve played from the game jam. I recommend including instructions for the player on what to do at the start of the game.
+ HOPE TO TRY OUR GAME.
Developer

That is a great point, thanks for the feedback!

Really good artwork tho

Submitted

I didn't understand the slideshow at the start, is it a tutorial and what do i press to continue it?

Developer

The slideshow at the start is a brief tutorial introduction. To continue it, look at the table in the starting room—there is a projector on it. Walk up to the projector and press the triangular button by interacting with it (press E on your keyboard)

Submitted

Ah, maybe E is bugged for me, or my keyboard just isnt working.

Really dig the style of the game and the shift was really cool actually caught me off guard (i WAS wondering why every thing was mundane then i just have this deadly weapon in my hand)

Again I really like the visual style and the sfx of the game. thoughit was a tad too hard, or more so the "look at them" mechanic felt a bit clunky/inconsistent most of the time in the garage section.

Genuinely got scared by the first encounter of the enemy. But after that I started chasing them instead haha. Love the artstyle too.

Developer

Haha, thanks a lot! Exactly, they deserved it! Sometimes you just have to show them who's boss and put them in their place. Glad you enjoyed the combat and the art style!

Submitted

Love the atmosphere of the game! The skittering sounds make the enemies genuinely freaky

Developer

 Yeah, that sneaky sound of fast little legs always keeps you on edge

Submitted

I couldn't really figure out how to dodge the enemies' attacks properly at the last section even after playing it twice 'cause I missed what happened at the end for the first time (but that's a me issue). Overall I really liked it :D

Submitted

this game scared me quite a few times.
