Very atmospheric, and wow - that vocal performance when you get caught the first time really made me jump - I felt like I was really waking from a nightmare.  I would have liked a clearer measure of how close an enemy was, like if the footsteps got louder and quieter based on the distance or something (although perhaps there's an element of that in there, but with headphones, the footsteps just sounded close all the time).It was down to luck. Great atmosphere, though, and a really strong spin on the theme.

thank you for playing our game, and you are absolutely right about the sound, it is defensively too loude  then it is far away. i will remember that for other games we make. thank you.

Love this game want to keep playing but you need checkpoints.
Also I was able to glitch through the map and one of the times the monsters did not go away when I hid.

Also it is soooo hard to get past the long light bar because I cannot tell which side the gap is on.

With all that being said, I want you to keep making games this was fun! You could do a whole story and everything here!

Thank you!

It was pretty scary. I normally don't like scary run away games but this was pretty good. I did have the same problem that etchings had where I got stuck in my hiding place. But other than that it was pretty good.

I'm not that into scray, escape from the monster type of games but I can see the lovers of the genre would like this one. Congrats!

Dude it's incredible that you were able to make me scared with no scary music or sudden loud sounds. Just some creepy models, small and dark hallways, and footstep noises. Incredible work! Only thing is that I had a guy waiting outside my hiding spot after getting my 2nd lightswitch, so I had no way to get out of it. You may want to work on your exit logic for the monster to start walking away to make sure that doesn't happen.

That minor issue aside, you did an awesome job.

Good job on getting that scary atmosphere! The only thing was I could never tell when I was safe since it sounded like the monsters were always nearby. Good work
