I thought this was a really cool and creative concept for the jam! I had a bit of trouble at first, but once I got the hang of it I got more in the groove. It was a bit difficult for me, to be honest, but still a cool experience! Gives me minor Babadook vibes, and that's one of my favorite horror movies, so I was pleased. Great work!

Why... How nice of you! Thank you ^^

I love the art and idea but it's a little demotivating being sent back to the first stage after getting caught since it takes so long to complete a level

Developer(+1)

If you managed to complete a stage (for example stage 1). Selecting "Load Game" from the menu shall take you back to Stage 2 where the game was saved.


Thank you^^

looks like something was wrong my my download. load game wasn't working properly and for some reason it cut the intro in half? i just re-downloaded it though. still difficult, but less demotivating since i did that

Developer (1 edit)

Here is what proper functionality of the game shall go like :

Pressing Enter (aka START button) during the Intro shall take you to the Main Menu Screen. Pressing Shift (aka SELECT button) shall change your option. Once your darkened option is LOAD GAME, pressing Enter to confirm your selection shall stop the Main Menu Music and load the Opening Monologue of the Stage you died last time, after 2-4 seconds. (If the game has not created any save file yet, then the music shall remain off and nothing load, it's aimed to be an unnerving bug-feature).

I hope this helps. ^^
