I almost didn't escape because i don't pay enough attention but i managed it lol Very cool game and experience, thank you for sharing. Keep it up !
The game builds up slowly, but the final sequence is haunting - great game!
Loved the way you utilized "P.T." and liminal spaces horror together. This was a decent experience with lots of potential. I think adding some additional scares with the balcony area and the ceiling would be awesome. I would also suggest adding subtitles, because it was difficult to understand the radio. And, my final suggestion would be to add an exit screen, instead of just closing the game.
Solid horror! Best of luck with the future games.
Thank you for playing and for the insightful feedback! :)
GOOD
Thanks for playing!
Great game! Very creepy, especially to listen for the clues while wondering if something is nearby watching you. I liked the subtle work propaganda everywhere, and the narrator was both funny and added to the uneasiness. Enjoyed playing. :)
(I added a gif because shift triggered sticky keys for me.)
Thanks for playing! Happy you enjoyed.
I am confident that I hold the World Record Any% speed run for this game.
As the developer, I'm pretty sure I can confirm this - my fastest play tester right here
Pretty well made compared to the typical PSX horror game on itch.
Appreciate it!
