I've been able to last longer once I realized I could crouch, which also covers the watch timer, muffling the sound a bit. Well done, I was definitely spooked out of my chair the first few times!

edit: guess I read the instructions too quick, it was all there :)

Fun horror game!! Love the mood, and the murderer was so scary!!! I was desperately trying to find places to hide...

5/5 in humor because all my friends laughed at me when I screamed <3 (it was a fun time!)

Thanks everybody for the feedbacks, we appreciate a lot <3

@littleblackdog Also, fun fact, the murderer has my photo edited on his face hahahaha

@matt-swieboda we put a "tutorial" on the Menu to help players to see what they can do. It's better to have the instructions in game haha

Wow. I genuinely struggled to play this at times because it was so unsettling! Well done! Those footsteps put me so on edge and the killer looked creepy even in such low poly - it's rare for me to feel this way after playing a game but it gave me the shivers. There were a few technical issues like texture clipping and I thought it was a bit too difficult but overall a very, very creepy and enjoyable entry!

Good game, I was a little frustrated because is hard to find good places to hide and the monster audio is a little difficult to tell where it is. But awesome and impressive work!

@alex-de-la-cour Thanks for your feedback! In the recent updates we tweaked the difficulty a little bit, also redesigning the layout of some rooms to give the players more routes to escape, and adding a tutorial section on the menu to present some very useful buttons. Hopefully that makes the gameplay fairer!

@gousen-pride We are gonna take a look at those issues and deliver a fix ASAP! Thanks for your comment and feedback!

Fun horror game, love the retro psx graphics (thought about doing that myself) and the sound design is terrifying. Great job!
