nice story

its good but to short, easily can pay for more

Thank you! The full game will be around 1,5-2h depending on your play style, how much you explore, how long you take to complete the puzzles etc. We’re hoping to have the full game released by Halloween 2021.

This is really good! Some of the story points were a little cliched but that's literally my only issue. It looks and sounds great and the puzzles fit really well into the world as well. I'm looking forward to seeing more of this!

Thank you for taking time to play our demo and making a video for it! Our goal is to pay homage to older indie horror games, so that’s why some of the plot points may seem a bit cliche. But we’re still working on improving the writing and making it more coherent, so we hope that the full experience will feel more fresh. Again thank you for playing and were hoping to release the full game by Halloween 2021.

I'm genuinely really digging what this game is putting down, and intended to do a video on it, but the bug QueenFaith put below brings the game to a full stop.. If you run and jump at the ledge it fixes the bug but then leads straight into another bug :( 😅 Please fix, Loving the vibe though 

Thank you for reporting this bug, it has now been fixed.
