You're too kind! Nice and clean video as well! Hoping to announce my new game around Halloween. Follow me on itch and so when the time is right I will send you more details about it and how to sign up for closed beta when the time comes. :)
That was really short but scary as f**k :O
Thank you! Very nice and high production video. 👌
Short but in the same time amazing idea and game, really enjoyed it !
Thank you so much, you're very kind! Your video was really good and high quality Keep it up! 🥳
Thank you my friend so much, actually i did this video a while ago but i did not know i can comment here with gameplay. Now that i know i will support creators here as much as i can and make videos in very good quality. I have more games on my You Toube channel and much more will come. 🙏💪
Thank you so much!
Nice video! Too bad the mic audio broke but I could feel the stress anyway. I'm hard at work on my next game, that will be a full game. Will hopefully reveal it in a couple of months. 🥳👻
Yo! Twas a good concept. I enjoyed.it and hope for more in the future, dawg!
Made a vidya like a cool cat
Glad you liked it. Very good video! 😃👍
Nice video man! You where so calm the first run and handle the keypad like a pro. I want you around when the shit hits the fan. 👊😅
Haha! Love it my dude!
That's a bullshit, no gonna lie...
A short, but amazing horror game. Any horror game fan's gotta check this out.

Thank you! Im still amazed over how nice people have been on itch. Whats the secret and why isnt all of the internet lile this. 😅
Very nice website and articles you have! 🔥 Will check it out more. :)
great game, even though it's super short. Would love to see more from it (wonderful concept). However, the gamepad interaction could be tweaked a little bit, but, that could very well be an issue on my end (I may have setup bad settings for myself), but overall, an absolutely wonderful game. I do suggest allowing players to dynamically switch between the two controls if they so choose, as when I was trying play and switch controls I had to exit the game completely to get it to register the keyboard and mouse again. Though, if you were to add the dynamic switching, I'd suggest an option in the settings to allow players to turn it on/off, that way they're not dealing with the mouse/keyboard getting tapped while they're using the gamepad (and vice versa) and wondering why they've suddenly turned around or randomly activating a random function in the game.
Thanks Ryuu! Glad you liked it and I totally agree with your feedback. The controller issue is on my end. I didnt know all the stuff that went into controller usage. However, this is fixed on my new game im working on. It will have full controller support. :)
Great intense horror game that inflict panic upon the player instantly. Thank you for making this! 2nd game.
Thank you for your nice comment! Im working hard on my next horror game and its a massive improvment. :)
i really enjoyed this game, keep up the good work dev's
In this video I play a total of 3 scary games; Trapdoor, Cabin and Walking home alone. These games had me on my toes. All games were filled with intense horror and fist clinching thrills. One where I had to talk through text to save my Girlfriend and one where I had to run away and still ended up getting caught by a monster and the last one was me running away trying to enter my house.
Very good video! Even I jumped the first time you died and I made the game. 😅
NO WAY I loved it. Do you have any other games cooking up?
Working on a sandbox horror multiplayer game that will blow every horror lover and streamers mind! Not ready to be shared yet but follow me and I will update you when the time is right. 🥳
hola !!! , quera decirte que jugue a tu videojuego , gran proyecto !!! en verdad generas esa presion de ser persiguido por un asesino !! sigue asiii , espero que te guste mi gameplay !!
You really had me freaking out at the end! Loved the forest environment you made.
Glad you liked it and go freaked out! :)
I had a huge smile on my face when I completed this. It's short obviously but the atmosphere truly was great and the lighting was gorgeous.
A lot of horror games that try to stress you just put you in some kind of maze where you're supposed to collect something and avoid a monster. It's rare that you're actually forced to do a specific task under pressure and I enjoyed it a lot. It was very refreshing and I would hope to see more games do something like this.
All in all, good proof of concept. I had a lot of fun so thanks for making it. :]
Many thanks! The concept of doing specific tasks under pressure will be a main focus of my next game. :)
Very nice video! Loved to hear a scared scream in (I guess) French! 🙌
It's the third game in my video and it starts at 28:00
Game is HELLA buggy. I can't even play it because it maxes my GPU out to 100% on medium-low settings. Keep in mind I can play most games fine that have higher quality textures but this one specifically is an issue
Wow!
How eerily beautiful, nice work!

Jogo bonito, tem um pouco de tensão, mas precisa trabalhar melhor do terror, o final você morrer de qualquer jeito é sacanagem.
Very excellent my friend. You have a great talent for creating atmospheric and tense environments. Although it was just a proof of concept, instead of killing you at the end when you entered the large estate, it should have reinforced the neccesity for a fundamental understanding of the philosophy of taxation as it relates to property rights, democracy, public justification, state neutrality, stability, and political psychology. Many of these deep and challenging philosophical questions about tax have not always received as much sustained attention as they clearly merit. But I hoped that this proof of concept "game" would change that by advancing the debate along a number of these philosophical fronts. Please remake the entire thing to incorporate these fundamental concepts. Instead of a num pad to enter the door, you could query the player with a small questionnaire of property rights, then and only then may they be allowed entrance.
Thank you.
good short experience. You wanted it to be stressful and it definitely was haha! Be interested to see what is next with this game.
This was really good for how short it was! It caused panic in me because i was not expecting the chainsaw and being chased at all at that point. good job! here's my playthrough if you wanna see! (its the first one XP)
Can somebody please help give me instructions on how to download this on my chromebook? It would really help me a lot to platy this fun looking game.
Sorry, I don't know how chromebook works. :/
Excellent game. Loved the spooky aesthetic. The end made me laugh. Great stuff with some tense moments. If you like my video enough please consider liking and subscribers. The more the merrier and I really enjoyed your game. I want more! :D
This game was really good! I feel like there could of been more of a spooky factor. rather then just the chase scene. the part that got me was the ending! ;--; I cant wait to see more! would love to play this! over all! Fantastic! dropping my play though!
start 0:00 end in 2:45
And here 's my walkthrough with strong Persian accent 😂😂
For how short this game was it was super spooky and I really enjoyed it. It's been a while since a horror game has made me scream really loud. I liked it so much I decided to make a video on it if that's ok. I hope you make more games or even add to this one you got here because wow it was good, Good Luck!
Thanks and nice video man! I agree with you that a lot of horror games is long and not scarry anymore so that's why I created this. I will now create a longer game. 🥳
Haha thank you! :)
Nice game, sure to complete it please. (I'm use Google Translate xd)
Thanks! I'm working hard on game developing during my summer vacation. :)
Thanks! Very entertaining reactions in your video. I laugh so hard! 😂
Really good horror game, loved it. I made a video on it
Thank you and nicely edited video! 😀

if you checked it out I appreciate you and hope you stick around but either way i hope you have a good day
Nice video! Keep up the good work. 😃
This was an amazing proof of concept! Totally stressful and scary, would love to see more of this game and others! This was the second game in the video!
Thank you so much! Really glad you liked it. I enjoyed your video very much! :)
