I really enjoyed this game. I fell for every single jumpscare. Whenever I thought I was about to get scared, nothing happened, and instead, the scares came when I least expected them. Really good game, honestly. You should definitely create more content for it.

Developer

Glad you enjoyed

Thanks for playing

There were definitely moments when I actually jumped out of my skin. I liked the voice acting; it really suits the theme. I enjoyed playing it. If you were to tone down the jump scares a bit and focus on building tension for the player, it could be an even more enjoyable game.

a voice acted game? brilliant and can tell a lot of effort has been put into the game

made me jump a fair few times. only feedback is make me wait a bit between jumpscares, let the tension build a little because i expected one pretty much every time it happened. 

great art, great narrating and i genuinely didnt know if i should trust the voice or not it really nailed the theme

2 minutes into the game i felt my pants already shat :). Jokes aside, cool horror game and voice acting. Just wished there were more things to do - it would also make the jumpscares less predictable. Goob job on this game jam!

That was interesting! It would be cool to apply pixel art textures or hand-drawn art. Good job!

hi! congratulations on submitting your entry! 

good job building a creepy atmosphere! although the rooms are bland, they still have an aura of mystery to them which fits the game.

I appreciate the voice acting, other than 1 or 2 inconsistencies but that's being nitpicky. It's the main focus of the game and it's good for its purpose.

I would have liked to adjust my mouse sensitivity and in-game volume. Jumpscares were way too loud.

I also think a few more interesting actions and gameplay features would've made it nicer to engage with, there were one too many sequences of just going to the next door.

However, you delivered a clean game from beginning to end for this jam, and there's great merit to that! Keep it up!! 

Developer

thanks for playing and your report

I enjoyed playing. Not the genre I usually play. 

Well done on making this in the week!

P.S. I was pleased when I found a door that keeps spawning the ghosts if you keep pressing E haha

Developer

Ohh, thanks for playing

As a narrative atmospheric experience, it is very good, innovative, and thematically good. Gameplay-wise, I felt that choices lacked consequences. Overall, I enjoyed playing

Excellent sound design and simple visuals. Proof that even games constrained heavily by time can still create an impactful environment. 

First jump scare got me good.

I see the vision and idea. Just currently it felt a bit repetitive and like my choice did not have any impact.

voice acting goes hard, although i didnt feel like i had a choice wether to believe him or not, but it was good nonetheless

Thanks for playing
