This game is pretty good! It has my favorite type of jumpscare in it, the atmosphere is pretty creepy, and the monster/ghost is just... hmm scary. I made a video of the game and gave more thought at the end! Good job Cody for the game and Eric for the music! =)
Thanks man! Tbh I kinda made this game to be left to pure interpretation with sort of a backstory that I went with myself, but your interpretation is actually pretty much what I was going for! I'm definitely gonna attempt at a more concrete story for my next game so hopefully I can make that work lol!
Hey man great game!! It was a quick experience that I really enjoyed, the dark atmosphere makes me tense all the time I like it, hope i can play more of your games
You did a really good job with this game. The atmosphere and constant tenseness are really well done. Mainly because of the amount of times you expect something to happen, but it doesn't. If this game was longer and managed to keep the same atmosphere, while taking it slow then it would make it even more awesome than it already is. All in all you did an awesome job with this game and I'm very impressed. This game put me on edge the whole time, and that's coming from someone who grew up playing dead space. So the fact that you spooked me pretty good should show how well the atmosphere is. Well that's all I've got to say. Good game or maybe I'm just a pussy.
Thanks man! Considering the fact that I focused mainly on trying to create a creepy atmosphere for this game, I'm glad that's what stood out to you! I definitely want to try to make a longer game next so hopefully I can make that work out!
No idea what was going on but, it was fun and spoopy. Loved the part where I was expecting a jumpscare and there was none; only to be scared by a jumpscare in the very next scene. xD It's the first video in my three random horror games video.
It seems fine, but at least the Linux version that I've tried is very buggy. To grab the flashlight you have to crouch, or the hand icon doesn't appear. Then to grab the key in top of the table after the first encounter the hand didn't appeared at all, I had to press Esc which didn't bring the menu but made the hand appear. And the 3rd and worst bug is after you grab the floating key in the hallway part, in there the game freezes completely and can't continue playing.
Wow, after hearing that I probably should take down the linux version, sorry that happened man! I want as many people to play it if possible but considering there's bug that actually won't let you continue then yeah it's not worth it. I'll definitely see if I can get all versions to work correctly for my next game but unfortunately I'll have to leave this one as it is. Thanks for letting me know though!
I don't know why everyone is mentioning the atmosphere when there isn't any. No ambiance, lighting techniques, nothing to add to the atmosphere. The game has no scary features, the jumpscares are too quiet and too poorly presented for it to be scary, and finally, there's just nothing there. Just walk around "E" ing on doors and walking to cliche horror old women #95.
Thanks for giving your honest opinion lol! I feel the atmosphere I went for is more superficial than what is considered actual atmosphere, which I feel is what you mean by having no atmosphere. I definitely agree that the scares need work which I hopefully can accomplish in my next game, which I promise won't be a walking sim this time lol! Thanks for checking it though and hopefully I can aim higher next time!
Nice short horror experience. I'm curious to know more about the story - what exactly happened and why is the character doomed to their fate? Other than that, the game has a creepy atmosphere and some decent scares in it.
Thank you! Tbh there's no real story behind anything, unfortunately lol. I've kinda made one up for myself but it's really just pure interpretation. I definitely plan on making a more concrete story for my next game though!
Thanks! But yeah I think I see what you mean. I haven't looked into how to optimize games, mostly cuz I'm scared it's going to be hard lol, but I definitely plan on making an attempt with my next game. Thanks for letting me know though!
Man oh man this game had me wanting to shit my pants. I'm a bit of a pussy when it comes to horror games and this damn game really fucked with me😅. Absolutely had a blast playing through it. The atmosphere that was built is just phenomenal, and it really had me anxious all the way through. Going into this game I even expected there to be a lot of jumps scares but the ambiance really made you feel uneasy in every room you found yourself in. This led to me completely pissing my pants even when I expected there to be scares around the corner. Overall amazing short horror game with incredible atmosphere! I can't wait to see future projects!
Thank you man! The main focus for this project was to just work on atmosphere and hopefully provide a creepy environment. So I'm very glad that was your experience (sorry about the pants though lol!) and hopefully I can keep it going!
Sweet and short game. Loved the atmosphere and use of jumpscare-ish elements. Kept me on edge. Played it twice because I thought there were more than one endings haha. Good game!
Great game! This game definitely kept me on edge without really trying. The fear was real, I was looking forward to being spooked and I was not disappointed. I will link my play-through below if you are interested in seeing my reaction.
THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST HORROR GAMES I'VE PLAYED THIS YEAR!!!
Seriously, I really loved the atmosphere to the game! The spooks were beautifully placed as well. I loved this game and can't wait to see what you make in the future homie!
Tbh I agree lol! I focused purely on just environments for this project but completely disregarded any kind of mechanics or action. I plan on making my next game more action oriented and hopefully it goes well lol! Thanks for checking it out!
They game freeze for me after the screamer when I pick the key on the dark room. I wake up in the house, some text appears and then the game stops working.
The text when it freeze says: '' How did I end up here ''
Hmm, I assume you pressed 'e' to continue the text and it wouldn't work? If so I have no idea why that is. If it happens to anyone else I'll definitely look more into it but for now I'll have to leave it be. Thanks for letting me know though!

This scared the absolute crap out of me! So good! Love the atmosphere and scares! I'm just unsure of the story though. But fantastic game, well done!
