Chase away several mosquitoes that are keeping you awake in a dark room ! To locate the insects precisely, you must rely on sounds and use the objects in your room to your advantage, while paying attention to the mosquitoes' movements and behavior. Those tiny creatures can be quite sneaky, so beware, or else you'll get easily bitten by them (and lose a lot of sleep) !

Loved the interactions that you could do by hitting the furniture! Actually finding the mosquitoes was pretty difficult though

This was fun (and hard ^^). The 1-bit-style night vision and the sound effects I liked best! Great game!

PTSD! This is way too close to reality. Loved all the random physics based interactions. Simple but well put together.

It's hilarious, I do hate mosquitoes, and I somehow can not see the mosquito so I just randomly hit every position when I hear the sound and I killed all the mosquitoes lol.

It's a really funny game, even a little scary because of unexpected effects (i.e., turning on the TV). I felt a slight tension, which added extra depth to the game. Great job!

What a great entry! Interactions are top-tier, I really enjoyed touching everything. Graphics are also really nice, tho farthest clipping plane is weird, I guess it was intentional?

If your game had more sound on interactions (I thought I'd hear something upon touching musical instruments) and more gameplay, it would be enev better! Good job!

I also expected some reaction to the lego on the floor, it's unfortunate that there wasn't any

@nicole-a Thanks a lot for your feedback, and glad that you enjoyed our game !
There were indeed more interactions planned like specific sounds for object interactions (especially for the instruments) and for stepping on the Lego (quite a painful one considering that the player isn't wearing slippers), unfortunately we ran a bit short on time so we couldn't implement them (maybe they will come back in a near future ?).

The farthest clip was to simulate a short-distance visibility because of the lack of lights, the transition could be a bit smoother at the end of the view distance though.

Anyway, thanks for your comment (and for noticing the great Game Over screen too) !

This game is so relatable! Literally its the snowball effect of a bad night leading to a bad day. Great little game.

I absolutely love the graphic. The shader makes the whole game very visually appealing! The mosquito sound really does its best to show how annoying those mosquitoes are!
