This was really cool! Loved what you did with the camera as it made you really have to be focused on the spooky imagery.

Really enjoyed the game :)
Atleast what I could play :D
At the part where the key dropped on the floor I just couldnt find the right way to continue....am I really that blind xD?
Sounds were awesome. And the voice actiing was very nice :D
But bgm should be quieter or voice acting louder.
And give the option to put in subtitles. Really helps sometimes :)
All in all really enjoyed it :)

Jackos MissionI forgot to add in the code to make the key sprite disappear once you pick it up, but there is a door behind the bookshelf where you get the keycode, and after you click the key that drops from the hangman becomes accessible to enter. Thank you for checking it out, and yeah the music leveling compared to dialogue was off since all the voices were added last day of jam lol
I just finished ending #4. Just found a problem with the golden key (the image stayed on the floor), put seems that it was picked anyway.
The idea was very nice!

Candy Ghost (Spooktober Jam)very good, I liked it all. After I cut the rope of the dead person the key was on the floor but I couldn't pick it up. i tried again and again but it wouldn't work so I gave up.

Masking TruthWindows warned me before I downloaded it, windows warned me when I opened it. I dismiss them and download and play. I think this is a cool mechanic with the camera thing on the start screen. I then gat a message saying "Fresh start this will remove all your programs apart from pre installed windows ones." You've already scared me before ive even started to play. I'm too scared to continue 😨.

Masking TruthI liked the concept and the plot of this game.i got ending 3 but couldnt find a way to get ending 1 and 2. the audio is also amazing since i didnt expect real voice acting. it gives a horror vibe which i also liked.however the flashing thing kinda hurts my eyes but not a big problem Overall a fantastic game!

Tricky Pumpkin!Hi there! Thanks for checking it out. and the game endings are dependent on how many jewels you collect. There are 3 jewels in the game. So it is possible to get 4 different endings! But most people have been very thorough while playing! (which is not a bad thing :) ) I was worried about the flashing possibly agitating eyes, I almost put a flashing warning on the game, but didn't have time to. Thank you for the feedback though!
Wow, great atmosphere and I really liked the voice acting. Very spooky! Good job :)

MasktheTruthI like the game really nice atmosphere graphics music and the voices are good.
I notice that when you pickup the yellow key after when you are back the key is still on the floor.
Good Job,

Pumpkin LukeHi, absolutely loved this game.
The voice acting is great and immersive, one point to improve however would be to put a textbox (as I sometimes miss what was said) and actual puzzles in the game. Nevertheless, this is one of the best games I've seen in this jam.
I love the camera-taking function, as it helps the players immerse deeper into the game and gives a rather interesting jumpscare too. Amazing work in terms of graphic and audio!

Halloween in QuarantineI miss explanations. I really miss them. It all just ended too quickly.
I don't know why I've seen a probably dystopic alternative reality through the lens, even by the end. It looked really neat, though. The voice acting was nice, definitely didn't expect it in a jam game.
Also, during the opening cutscene, if I clicked it still played the photo-snapping-sound.
Overall, I liked the atmosphere of the game, it felt mysterious. - And this is why I crave for some explanations.
