This is a very cool little game. I like that you have a strong visual style, well defined core mechanic, and great atmosphere. Only critiques are that it feels like there could have been more events coming out of the darkness than just the giant head (though I imagine that was a result of time constraints), the menu opened by escape should also be able to be closed by escape, and in one or two spots near the start the combination of texture and screen space dithering threw me off. Ending it the way you did was a great idea. Overall a very strong entry.

Amazing game, very similar to the one where you climb (i dont remember the name)

@myezko Yeah, it was called White Knuckle.

Love the visuals

graphics, atmosphere and audio is the best. in the beginning I don't understand anything, but when some weird thing jumped at me and i realised everything.
the only downside the repetitive gameplay. special thanks for the rubber goose

Great game with good polish, as always. I felt the game had just the right length, It didn't feel boring or anything. The whole setup is quite funny.
I guess i would have liked a more impactful ending, I was hoping to see that menacing machine again

this was so cool! loved the atmosphere and the tension.

It soooo cool, short, bit cool, it looks like a separate universe with its own lore, graphic, sounds and polish is amazing, like the idea of 2d hand that connects to ineracting objects

Only one, i didn't get it the first time, when i need too run away, all enviroment screaming me to run, but i dont understand, bc all time before button with arrow up need to be pressed to get progress and there is no

But it so cool, i like it

The mechanics are clever, and the tension builds perfectly—such a polished experience for a short horror game!

its wonderful!
Awesome atmosphere, cool mechanics, great graphics. Good job!

Love the mood, very oppressing, the mechanics of the hand is mart to build tension, very nice

What a fun idea! Feels very polished. GZ!.

I liked the graphics and the atmosphere. And also a funny goose to calm your nerves :)

Really effective horror game! The loops of holding the button and cooling your hand was simple but effective and built a lot of tension. Was constantly afraid that something was going to attack while my hand was too hot to hold the button. The dark PSX aesthetic plus ambient sounds really set the mood perfectly. The twist at the end where you had to flee the flooding water was cool and used the mechanics in an interesting new way. Was actually a bit surprised the robot didn't show up again during that sequence, although the fear that it would definitely kept me on edge regardless. Overall, very impressive game. Amazing work!

Oh wow, that was quite intense! After the first... event... I turned and cooled my finger off SO MANY TIMES lol. And it really felt like a race back out, too! Well done, you REALLY captured the vibe of being trapped in the dark here, going deeper into the depths.

Unexpectedly, very good quality game. I love games that focus on 1 mechanic.
Also i love The goose toy, it adds a little humor to scary atmosphere.

The cool and feel of this game is great and the tension descending the lift is nice. I kind of wish there was a little more payoff but it's great stuff.

Love horrors, the thing i love the most about this is that the scary part isnt some generic scary monster but a mechanical creature of some kind, was surprised by elevator going up in the second half of the game, good job!

So polished! Good work!
