How To Beat & Enjoy Cliché?

Cliche
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

You are in an apartment trapped in your room and only with your computer, you are a videogame developer with a tragic past. You can use your computer for various purposes such as finding out your story, setting game options and playing your own game.

You have a comfy apartment room with many food all over the place that you can pick up and use them to recover health, also you can interact with a few items, such as lifting objects, look at them and turn light switches on and off. 

 The first thing you want to do is try to complete the game that is in the laptop, the trick to beat it is actually in the code of the game... and if you don't understand it what it simply means is that you don't have to jump to beat the game. That will unlock the hints you need to follow in order to beat the game:

  • Be curious and trust your intuition: So far so good, everything is flooded but the main door is now opened, some type of entity is walking now inside your apartment and breaking lights., 
  • YOU GOTTA BE FAST BECAUSE YOU ARE RUNNING OUT OF LIGHTS... GO TO THE HALL WHERE THE ENTITY CAME FROM AND LOOK FOR A KEY TO OPEN THE ONLY DOOR NEXT TO THE PIPES. (THE KEY IS ON A TABLE NEXT TO A LAMP) UNLOCK THAT DOOR AND THEN... NOW JUST TRUST YOUR INTUITION AND JUMP. IN THE NEW AREA OR "PLACE" YOU ARE IN WHAT IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS MORE OF THOSE ENTYTIES YOU CAN SEE THEIR FOAMS IN THE WATER, AVOID THEM SO YOU CAN LOOK FOR A LADDER TO TAKE YOU OUT OF THERE... ALSO AT THIS POINT YOU NOTICED A GIRL IS CALLING YOU ON A PIPE. IF YOU LOOK CLOSE ENOUGH WITH THE RIGHT CLICK SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN. ALSO NEXT TO HER IS A LIGHT SWITCH THAT WOULD HELP YOU FIND THE LADDER TO GET ON THE VENT AND ESCAPE THE CRAZY PLACE. Show Spoiler
  • Question the reality: Now nothing that has happened seem to be real... and now that you are back in the very beginning is even worse! Find out what has changed...
  • A CRAZY HEART BEAT IS MAKING NOISES SOMEWHERE, FOLLOW THE SOUND (IT TAKES YOU TO THE PIPE ZONE) AFTER FINDING OUT WHAT IS MAKING THAT SOUND... NOW JUST ENJOY THE REST OF THE GAME. Show Spoiler

UNFORTUNATELY I LOST ALL THE FILES OF THE GAME SO IT CAN NOT BE UPDATED NO MORE. I FOUND THESE SETTINGS TO WORK PROPERLY IN MOST COMPUTERS: DISABLING AMBIENT OCLUSSION AND IN WORST CASES SET GRAPHICS TO LOW QUALITY.
