Creepy! I liked the slow evolution from street-level anxiety to... something else entirely. Nice one!

nice literal use of the theme!

The way the tension builds as evidence stacks up that something is amiss reminds me of Caleb J. Phillips' horror short Other Side of the Box. And much like that film, this feels somewhat like a demo, a trailer or a proof of concept for a larger work.

The end was a great way of stealing the player's control to show the character's lack of control in the situation. Well done!

Super spoopy, ready to go for Halloween. I like how you get led into a situation where you lose control over what you're able to do. It's pretty tense.

A nice little horror jaunt, quite enjoyable, if short :)

unsettling & effective. this may sound obvious, but this game really does make you think about blinking, and closing your eyes, and opening them again...

As someone already mentioned, short and linear, but effective in the way it builds unease, including at the end where it's helped by a succession of options that all deny escape.

hit the theme well. I didn’t feel like my choices had much consequence.

Pretty short and linear, but the imagery of seeing the reflection in a passing bus is interesting.
