Cool entry! The concept of having your eyes closed while walking through the office really builds up some tension. Sadly the repetition of dying really quickly and having to start over was something got frustrating really fast. But the visuals and audio is really amazing. Nonetheless a really cool entry. Good job! :)
This is one of the most unique mechanics I've seen so far in the entries that I've played, and I think it works really well! :3 I thought that being forced to only take glimpses of your surroundings in order to stay safe was pretty neat + really ramped up the tension! Combined with the music, SFX, and aesthetics it made for quite a creepy + tense experience :D
I thought the eye close/open mechanic was so cool that I immediately started showing my brother, who is in the room with me right now, and he agrees that it's a funky feature :3
PS. Is it a demonic office chair? :o That's what I thought it looked like while I was trying to take quick looks at it. If it is, that's just awesome as a creature design!
Glad you enjoyed! I was the one on our team that designed the βoffice chairβ demon lol. I wanted to make it fit with our setting and felt like a chair was a perfect original idea (it did get me out of having to animate legs). Never really worked on a horror game before this so Iβm happy you like it!
I was surprised how it works in the browser, I really liked the mechanism of opening my eyes.
Loved the vibe and the experimental idea at the core of the gameplay. No bugs as far as I could tell and it had a polish most of the other games I've played didn't. Great work!
I would love if you keep developing and extending the game, the aestethics are pretty good both with the horror feeling of being chased and hace to manage my vision, great work uwu
Really digging the artstyle on this one! And that title screen music is a bop.

Great game! I didn't make it very far, but I think the main mechanic is very interesting. The sound design and aesthetics are also very nice. Good game!
Prety nice aesthetics, you totally delivered a horror experience. The first time I ran into the monster I jumped a little from the scare.
I really like this, I think the sound design and the look is wonderful. Consider putting in somelight UI stuff to make it clear if the player is walking into a wall/obstacle? Like some sort of white fade on the sides of the screen that shows up when you collide with something. Also perhaps an option to toggle sight on/off instead of keeping in pressed down? Though I do like how it's harder to do things when you have your eyes open, making another reason to keep them closed.
Man I love this type of game! Nicely done. I'm just curious, what shader did you use for the ambient? (pixelated effect)
