Really enjoyed this, sadly trying to pause at somepoint in the second house the game crashed (audio still played) so I decided to call it there.

I killed the Dad then the Mom after putting one of the children on the stool, then when the Mum was discovered I tried to pause and crash...

Thanks for playing and for the detailed steps! They led me straight to the bug: pausing during the escape after a body is found caused the game to freeze. It's fixed now, and I really appreciate it!

Excellent, also, LOVED the art style so cool, how did you achieve it, some package/plugin that turns shapes/sprits into ASCII?

Cheers! It’s a custom pipeline: the characters are animated 3D models, rendered in Three.js and baked into ASCII sprite frames. Brightness determines the shading characters, while edge detection picks characters like /, | and - to preserve the outlines. The rooms and furniture are built directly from characters, then a WebGL post-processing pass adds glow, scanlines and CRT screen curvature.
