I enjoy the game, but in the "hide in the closet" part the scenario got black and I couldn't finish the game. overall it the aesthetics of the game was good

Despite being blocked few times by door - overall it was "nice" experience :)

Love playing a voiced game. The visuals and audio were great and the last segment felt intense.

Developer

Thanks a lot. Glad you liked it :D

I like the idea of a cult of muscular man with paper bags. It gets quick to the spoopy stuff which I appreciate as a Horror game fan.  However, I can't say I didn't desire more interactions with the paper bags man.  Also, I  thought there was going to be something if I dodged the man with a bag. Turns out I just felt off the map.  guess he outsmarted me more then I outplayed him by putting a pitfall there XD. Anyway, good job on the game.

Originally I planned to have multiple endings, one of which would be fleeing out the building but didn't have the time sadly. I also wish i had time to make it longer with more minor scares and build up but instead I prioritized polishing. Anyway I'm really glad you liked it :D

Nice, the jumpscare got me good! Creepy intro too. Very detailed level and environment designs!

I didn't quite understand the narrative but the game itself was pretty polished

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I had the voice lines and story planned out pretty well but changed and removed a lot of it last minute because it felt corny which sadly resulted in a slightly confusing narrative.

My favourite thing about this submission is the dialogue/voice lines - there's an actual story here laid out by the player's own narration.
