That was great. Good environment, good music, just good everything. Well done!

Developer

Thanks for playing and glad you like it πŸ™Œ

This is the best horror game I've tried so far in the jam. I love the atmosphere you've created and the art is perfect. You didn't overuse jump scares but the tension was always there. Great job on that! I was a bit disappointed with the monster not actually being harmful, I thought it would be at least a plot point :D But it still had a great design.
There are small little things like gamepad support, especially since a gamepad plays an important part in your game xD And the light from the flashlight going through walls felt a bit off.

Developer(+1)

Thanks!, glad you liked the atmosphere and art. We planned to make the monster a bit more involved but the time was taking over and couldn't add too much πŸ™ˆ

Appreciate your feedback, I'll definitively take note about gamepad support and flashlight improve to include after the Jam πŸ™

Absolutely LOVED the cutscene aesthetic. Fantastic use of theme and legitimately creepy. The sound design was really great at giving you unsettling vibes.

Developer

Appreciate your kind words, glad you loved the aesthetic and resultπŸ™Œ. Thanks a lot for playing!

The game scared us so much and also the story was so creepy ahaha! Nice ambientation and the using of the pixel art :D

Developer(+1)

Hope it wasn't too scary πŸ™ˆ.  Glad you like the ambientation and the art. Thanks for playing, appreciate you took the time to try it!

It is a bit of a shame but I got stuck in the kitchen, the fridge wouldn't open, I couldn't switch dimensions and the door was locked. I was really enjoyed the game, lots of potential here!

Developer(+1)

oh no, sorry to hear you got stuck... The fridge area of action is small, and also is not clear from the game that you need to "hold" the action button for the interaction. I will make it more clear after the JamπŸ™

Glad you enjoyed what you managed to play, thanks for trying it! πŸ™Œ

Really impressive entry! The art, effects, sound, atmosphere and music selection were just fantastic. Legitimately spooky vibes. I see from the other comments there were two endings too, I think I got the bad one! Not entirely sure how to predict the monster or where I went wrong. I managed to get through the last room ok by kiting him around though! Really excellent submission and very unique. The art is a real stand out!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your kind words, glad you enjoyed the experience and the overall result πŸ™.

The secret ending is not affected on any of the decisions or actions made before the last encounter. Is a bit more on unfollow a "pattern/constraint" that is repeated before entering in the last roomπŸ™Š

Incredible horror game one of the best games in the jam can't believe you did this in 10 days

Awesome job

Developer

Thanks! Much appreciated πŸ˜ƒ

Love how the game looks and sounds. The game did really well in building an eerily ominous atmosphere. I was kept on edge the entire playthrough. The game was able to scare me without an overly cheap jumpscare. Great final key hunt. And the game also has multiple endings, nice.

I think I know the reason you made the monster just disappear when it reaches you, but I think that reason is going to fly over a lot of the players' head. Maybe make them know that there will be consequences?

One of the best entries in my opinion. Great job.

Developer

Thanks for play it, and glad you've enjoy it!. Also appreciate your words and feedbackπŸ™. We were wondering if someone will discover the 2 endings, so nice that you've found it πŸ‘».

About the rough edges, we rush things a bit as we got near the submittion date and had to cut a lof of things. Is something we need to improve a lot, plan according the time and not over scope πŸ™ˆ.

Good job. very nice horror game. I like it :)

Thanks for playing πŸ™Œ

Really neat concept and appreciated the eerie vibe.  The contrast in the environment when toggling "dimensions" really helped build atmosphere.  Would be cool to see this expanded on! 

Developer

Thanks for playing it and glad you like the contrast between dimensions. We'll try to expand it if things align well🀞

Submitted(+1)

I loved the art and music. The monster was creepy as hell and actually scared me the first time, although later I realized I could run into it and nothing seemed to happen. Also it started appearing in both dimensions? I think I would have enjoyed a greater variety of mechanics/ways of interacting with the dimension shifts, but overall a really cool, atmospheric piece of work. Nice job!

Developer

Thanks for playing!, glad you like the experience. 

Yeah, the first stages were meant more to be a bit jump scare than other thing πŸ‘». Also thanks for the feedback, we intented to extend but the scope creep + time was real and sadly we had to cut a lot of stuff πŸ™ˆ

Submitted

Makes sense to me! I hope you keep working on it.

Awesome game! I really like it!

Good job!

great game mechanic, and the pixel art character really pops out good job. would try out my game and rate it according.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and glad you like it. And sure, I'll play yours too πŸ‘

Submitted(+1)

you are welcome D. and thanks too :)

This reminds me of that game HOUSE that was popular a few years ago. I liked it right up until I couldn't switch between dimensions and had to keep the monster at bay while opening all those boxes at the end. That was a little more tense than I would have needed. overall very haunting and well made. 

Developer

Now I'm intrigued about the game you mention πŸ€”.

Glad you like it, the end was made to give more tension, but we tried to make it very forgiven πŸ™ˆ.

Submitted(+1)

It was great! btw did you make the assets? They look incredible! Nice game!! Love the atmosphere and the monster!

Developer

Glad you like the atmosphere. All the art assets were made by my teammate ricenoodles

Very creepy game, loved the vibe of the game from start to finish. The art style, sound design, and mechanics all played really well together to make this a wonderful game.

Super creepy~ love the aesthetics and the lighting! Very well put together game.

Developer(+1)

Thank you πŸ™Œ!, hope it was super creepy in the good sense 😝

Submitted

by the way. What does Eru Bicha means??

Developer(+2)

Nothing in reallity, sometimes we made up things up 🀣. This time was mixing up a nickname in romanized Japanese (Romaji).

Submitted(+1)

Hands down an amazing game! Been looking for a horror game, and this hits the spot! sounds and music is super creepy, it really gives great ambiance. Artwork is superb! Love the art style of the intro. Love the concept of shifting dimension kinda like into the upside down. 

Amazing job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks!, I'm glad that you enjoyed it. The artstyle is Ricenoodle's touch 😊.

Didn't think about the upside down reference, but yeah it certantly have a similarity 😯

Submitted(+1)

Wow, yeah this game had a good atmosphere to it. Its always Hard to do a successful horror game in such a short window of time, but you nailed it with the lighting and sound design. I really shouldnt have played this one before bed :P

Developer

Thanks for playing and glad you like it. I hope you didn't had nightmares πŸ™ˆ
