In what way does your game fit the theme?
The goal of the game is to stay alive with both the paramedic and the psychologist. If any of them die the other one gets noticeably weaker and their sanity goes down faster, the player has to keep them both alive to be stronger and survive the living nightmare in the old man's house.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I did write all of the code myself, I used some game systems I made for my other games (such as the dialogue system and health system). The only asset that was used from my before not released games is the gun, everything other was made by my friend Jeremy who i worked with and also by me.

The shooting mechanic was a bit annoying. Other than that, great implementation! Good job!

Hello ! Your game is pretty nice ! In my opinion it's missing a little ambience in the background but overall it's cool !
