I failed to understand how to interact with objects, so I didn't get to lean the main room, but the art style and voice was really well done. \n\nI\"m not a fan of horror, so I\"m not sure if its possible to combine horror and comedy. Comedy has you at ease and relaxed where horror is meant to make you uncomfortable and unbalanced. The two seem exclusive. Comedy in horror seems like it would be placed to relieve tension, and if done poorly would be even more unnerving like the movie Get Out.

I've seen a few entries playing with this type of genre combination but I think yours is the most successful this far! My only real issue with the game was not having a single clue of the objective when starting up (use the start menu) and the FoV seemed slightly too narrow for me, even for a horror game.\n\nGreat job!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Bradalli","author_uid":"1072792","time":"2018-04-24T17:21:41Z","epoch":1524590501,"modified":1524590501,"text":"I  never thought I'd find myself being startled by a chair with googly eyes ha ha.
