The AI could be a bit sharper and the camera feels a little sensitive, but overall this is a really cool concept. I love the style—it’s super underrated!

That was super creepy. A lot of attention to detail here, like the camera being low down because you're a kid.
How come my older brother kept stealing my cookies?
Nice little game, super atmospheric
Nice ideas going on here...not quite executed to the fullest potential though. I think the patrolling parents needed to be a bit more vigilant - one of them was asleep! I'd have liked exploring the house to have been more or a thing, and that maybe the parents would hear you and investigate. Anyway, good job and good luck in the jam. (I loved the door effect btw)
Nice game. The door audio was very weird but funny. Would have liked to have seen choices or a way for the player to distract the parent. The camera also had a issue where it would randomly force me to look at the ceiling, don't know if this is a known bug but can be irritating when it makes u stop walking and you get caught. Very interesting idea and a bit fun and funny
Well put together. Liked that it had voice acting! It was fun to learn the patterns of the family while sneakily watching from the stair banister. I did hit a point where I couldn't find the jar. But I liked how guard patterns would change every night, shaking up the difficulty even if you think you know the layout of the house. Great work!
Mom, my brother took the cookie I stole! ToT
Nice game! Is fun to study the patrons and wait for the right moment to steal the cookies. I love the monster's design and the door sounds are quite funny :D, good job!
As an older brother, the brother tax was real as hell and such a cute surprise at the end of the first round. Great game! Really fun to sneak around :)
This game was great! I liked how the brother steals a cookie from you after you do all the hard work.
Interesting game! For the first minute I was awaiting for a screamer, so good it did not appeared:)
The monster looks and feels more adequate than the parents with their bloody red beams in the eyes, not that it's something bad, I guess it adds the weirdness to the game, but in a good way.
Issues I've faced:
- The game is super dark so I had to go to my bedroom and close the curtains to play during the sunny day.
I really like the idea! I was expecting a jump scare at any time hehe. Great work!
