We did a celebration/drinking stream the other day and we played your game
This is definitely heavily inspired by Fears to Fathom which isn't a bad thing but FtF lets the horror build up and gets you more immersed into the world. Home Watcher kind of drops you into it and lets you deal with the story that in my opinion makes no sense
All that said, I was enjoying the game even if it made no sense and had some bugs but unfortunately our playthrough was cut short by a game breaking bug and I didn't have the patience to replay it.
Here's my playthrough if you're interested. Your game starts around 1:34:44
