Phew, almost never made this one! Life got in the way and we ran short a day, so had to pack it all in a day and a half!

There's just three rules... ... well, you know. THE rules.

Do you dare to go deeper into the maze? Or stand still, and wither away to nothing?

Oh, and... Look around with the mouse, and move with the keyboard... WASD, arrows, or keypad... or use the joystick. Interact with a click, E, F, or A-Button on controller.

Finally, it's not a loading screen.....

Great atmosphere but I think I ended in the void. All is black and I can walk forever.

The void is a rare bug, we haven't been able to track down. :)

Damn, the atmosphere is thick! I though i had a good tactic for the big fella, but i ended up beeing ganked :d. One thing i would like to see, is some sense of progression. I went through 23 room before i died and i wasn't sure if i was close to the end, or the game was in an endless loop?

Was quite good. Loved the mood. I don't know if I was supposed to get a jump scare. I found the Red guy hiding in the corner from me.

One Tip I would give anyone doing fullscreen is have an option to change monitors. Some games pick my second screen that is off to the side.

We played your game on stream yesterday with @lillybyte . Here is a link to the correct place in the video archive if you wish to see it: https://www.youtube.be/watch?v=IQdJ_KaE1bI&t=7170s

Great atmosphere on this game, I can really see it being fun to play with many people on stream.

The controls were super easy to handle and the visual effect are on point! Congratulation and...

I've never been a huge fan of spooky games and this one truly is another one to be put on the list. So creeped out but I was able to play it for a bit. Great job in creating this dark atmosphere with the lighting and the sounds. I got so lost and felt so trapped when suddenly I was eaten.

I will share this game with my friends who like scary creepy games.

No sleeep for meeee

Loved the creepiness, and all the filters worked well together. Wasn't quite sure what was meant by "don't look away," so I just sprinted for each door as fast as possible. Clever name, too ;)
