The game fits the theme because the scary girl is not real when she is standing under the light.

All 3D models and code was made from scratch during this game jam. I did not create any music or sound effects. For music and sound effects I used https://freesound.org/

Interesting gameplay and the level design was good except for the last level. I discovered the exit by accident running away from one of the girls. I think the kiting into the light in different ways was really well served by your level layouts and was a clever mechanic for a puzzle game. The girls also had a time period after they were hit with a light that they could still kill the player which got me multiple times. Also, if you triggered one's chase state and got far enough away that they stopped chasing you, getting close enough to trigger them again just kills you. The game was still really fun.

Love Ringu and the Ju-on movies so this one instantly intrigued me. I liked the hybrid puzzle / survival horror concept where you not only had to draw the ghost out and run away from it, but pick the order in which you move them around in order to reach the exit.

Two suggestions I can think of:
- I think it may have been better if you simply had to draw them to a spot with a light rather than having to time it for when the light is on. I found this a little difficult to gauge and it came down simply to luck rather than planning.
- The mouse sensitivity was a little too high.

Good game though!

This is a very solid game. I love it when you can teach the player through gameplay, introduce mechanics, and build on those mechanics in an intuitive way. You've done that here. I knew exactly what I needed to do without a word being said, and I understood how it got more complex as the game went on. That's good design. I also appreciated the sound cues being both spooky and gameplay relevant. Well done.

Fun little game! Clever way to implement puzzles and really fun and a bit challenging to figure out. Good work!

Cool game :)

The game really scares! I found it a lot of fun!

A game that gave me that creepy feeling. That's a nice way on tackling the theme of it is not real though would be great if the collider of the ghost is not that big so that it will not occupy the area and for me to have some chase battle with the ghost hahaha. The sound is static but still gives creepy feeling. Nice job!

Woah that have me creeps!

Check my games too!

Hi! Good job tackling the theme with a horror game:D Nice concept!

Submitted

Cool game, Quite scary. The light could potentionally flicker when it will turn on because right now it is a bit random

Submitted

Idk what's scarier, the girl or the sensetivity xD
but all jokes aside, I loved your game bro <3 , I had lots of fun.

and  I did not think it would actually be kind of scary XD, well done.

my only issue is the light, like can I control it somehow orrr?? cuz i lead them to the  light and I find that it's out XD

oh ye that's the name of the game lol

Nice little puzzle-horror game! The mechanic of leading the girl into the licht "killing" her was cool and let to some nice puzzles! The audio was a bit lacking, but overall it was a good game!

Please also check out my game!
