This is awesome little horror game, I'm really glad I gave it a go. The atmosphere was really tense throughout, there was a great slow build to the actual scares but right from when I entered the house I was on edge; that odd wobbly effect to our vision was surprisingly effective at making me feel unnerved. The story was brilliant I'm impressed at just how much you were able to convey in such a short space of time without making it go too exposition heavy, and Emily is such an endearing protagonist. Dusty stole the show though, he's incredibly creepy and threatening but never went overboard with the jumpscares. Plus I love horror games where the monsters talk to you. Got both endings and found both fairly satisfying. Loved playing, will definitely be keeping an eye out for your other work.
amazing game!!! bravo!!!
bro... what a beautiful game, very good
Pense que seria un juego mascot-horror mas, me alegra haberle dado una oportunidad y ver que es un juego increible
best horror game i played so far on this platform
This is really good, I love the subtle horror of his first few appearances, it's like if you blink at the wrong moment you'll miss him. And somehow you made a character that should've looked goofy and instead is genuinely terrifying, I love it. Easily one of the best horror games I've played in a while and I didn't even have time to finish it yet (in fact, if you could tell me which act to load in order to get to where I was, that'd be much appreciated). But my favorite thing might be that shift in art style in the dungeon looking area, when it gets all black and white and almost hand drawn looking, that part was awesome (and creepy as hell). Love this and will definitely be coming back to finish it very soon.
Here's part 2 with both endings, this was great. Excellent chase sequence in the vents and I also liked the minigame with the doors and camera flashes (honestly, I think that could've been 3 minutes instead of 2). Really great game overall and very nice message in the good ending. Great job devs!
One of the best games I have played in a while - really enjoyed it, great story, fun to play.
Hello! French review for you! :) The subtitles in english are supposed to work! ^^
amazing game, really loved it
Cool game and cool monster!
Tried out your game!
Lmfao you predicting what she was gonna say at around 6:50 really got me
MUY BUEN JUEGO LA VERDAD SOBRE TODO EL MENSAJE ME PARECE EXCELENTE SIGAN ASI SALUODS DEJO MI APORTE.
VERY GOOD GAME, THE TRUTH ABOUT ALL THE MESSAGE SEEMS EXCELLENT TO ME. KEEP UP THE GOOD THING. GREETINGS. I LEAVE MY CONTRIBUTION.
Just got done playing this and man was it fantastic! Certainly starts slow but the story becomes so much richer towards the end! Not to mention the atmosphere, WOW!. Can't wait to try out your other projects, would love a much longer game just like this one! Come check out my gameplay via my channel. I promise to make you laugh! XD
This game is honestly one of the BEST scary games I've played alongside many more! I wasn't expecting some CRAZY jumpscares, but that's what LIVE for! I'd recommend this game for anyone who's looking forward to downloading it! PROPS TO THE DEVS FOR THIS GAME!!
I thought this was excellent! Unsure if there are other endings or just 2.. but I loved this game and hope there is more! There was a lot of reading to do Haha, and I would've loads to explore more of the house.
I recommended this to a few people. One being Fearegon.
Here is my playthrough!! Please enjoy
This was a really well done horror game! I also really liked the message at the end. I had fun recording this too!
This was an absolute masterpiece! The story, the atmosphere, the scares and that chase scene! This game is criminally underrated!
Loved this game I was not expecting it to be as good as it was. My only complaint is not having a way to skip to the end after beating it to see the other endings but aside from that, amazing game.
PS: The game is good
The settings wont save. I was changing my quality to medium because i have a potato pc but found out it wasn't saving anything.

The game's story was fantastically written! Keep up the awesome work!
very good game. there was a motivational speech at the end of the game. hope to be a full time youtuber one day too!
This game was honestly so great, GOOD JOB!
Dusty very much cute.
Where can I even start with this game...
It is a unique piece of specimen.
Not only talking about the scares here, but what this game teaches us about our family, the devs. really nailed this, and I enjoyed every milisecond of it.
A truly wonderful game!
Amazing! Intense and creepy! Enjoyed reading through the dialogue and watching the story unravel. Beautiful message at the end as well. Thanks!
besides the huge amount of dialogue stuffed in it the game is actually very well made hahah
Super cool- loved this game
I already uploaded the game 7 months ago but I just saw the game again on Itch.Io and I found out that you uploaded another game, maybe I'll try it sometime because I really liked this one.
I loved everything about this! The art style was cool, the storytelling was well done (and really detailed), the jumps were well paced, and it got real dark at times! A hell of an experience!
I enjoyed playing this game and liked the message it conveyed as I did get both endings. I got scared a lot more than expected and that's a good thing. I did like the eeriness that came with the silence but I thought there could have been at least subtle music during some parts. Also thought that some of the notes in the game could've been summarized a bit more and still have the message received the same way. All in all, it was a solid game, and can't wait to see what else you come up with :)
