One thing that drove me mad was that the view kept slowly turning to the right, while the game was focussed, so after each klick I hit escape. That mede it playable as long as the mousecursor was in the screen area of the game. Once it left, I obviously lost control. I hope this is a problem only I encounter. If the turning was intended, please remove it, since it is only annoying and drove just short of quitting. Besides that, it is quite fun and until the end I could not predict if there really wasn't anything scary in the dark or if there would be a jumpscare at the end.

There were also some times when the timer would not count down until you pressed a button and other times when I was sure I pressed the right button but it still failed me anyway.

I had the same idea and made a game about just pressing a button! It's awesome how much you can do with a game that's literally just about pressing a button! Your take was a bit different than mine though. Feels a bit like The Stanley Parable in some ways, breaking the 4th wall and all that. I'm really glad you added checkpoints, otherwise there's no way I would have finished it :D For some reason I couldn't move right? Like, the D button didn't work. Was that intentional?
