After playing the first night, I was looking forward to seeing the rest of the game. Nights 2 and 3 were pretty cool and I really enjoyed playing this game in its entirety and seeing how the story unfolded. Great work beastybevan, hope to see more games from you!
A neat little game with a nice hide and seek style horror element thrown in, the premise is nice and it does capture the essence of what a night shift would feel like in a cinema.
In the next upcoming nights maybe there could be something else other than the shadow, something that you have to flash your torch at to make it go away (if both spawned together it would be an unlucky death) , maybe there could be a few more spooks coming from the cinema speakers perhaps maybe throwing a few fake sounds to make you less prepared for the shawdow when it appears, maybe there could also be a few horror images thrown up on the screen so the player could look at it and get caught unaware or writing on the walls to distract the player.
The game over all is a pleasant experience and fun to play, it feels very slenderman like , it will be interesting to see what else gets included in future nights.
I was just doing my job collecting items and placing them in the lost and found and out of nowhere the lights go dark and I run out of screen one panicking. As I run to the lobby I quickly check my left side and I see a shadow of a person then boom! I get captured. This game really does capture the horrors of working the graveyard shift it was really terrifying working here.
This is a good concept and has an interesting monster that leaves me wanting to know more. having said that, after finishing the first night, I think a few things can be done to improve the experience.
Improvements
If there are multiple nights, it'll be good to reduce the number of rooms to enter OR the number of items, otherwise it'll just take too long for each night and ultimately end up boring the players
The movement speed can be improved. Assuming the monster is stationary, reduced movement speed or lack of running is unnecessary
Lost item to be more visible, though probably it might just be me that can't see properly
Otherwise its a great start and I look forward to more updates in the future.
I was impressed with the concept and overall look of the game. The idea of having to turn off your flashlight to avoid attack was an interesting inversion of directing light at something to stop it attacking you.
I found that the gameplay was a little bit tedious, but nothing irreparable.
Congratulations on your early release and continuous development. Good luck!
The game was GREAT to play!!! Definitely had some fun with. Just got stuck at collecting the items at Theatre 3. The objective didn't change after collecting all of the items in there. Other than that, GREAT GAME!!!
You did a great job in creating a feeling of dread and the sudden buzzing of the cell phone made me jump out of my seat. I had a lot of fun with this and I look forward to seeing what the other nights will have in store.
Mr. Shadow, you can QUIT with the harassment hahaha What an awesome concept to derive some spookiness from! As I said in the vid, I can only imagine how much more intense Mr. Shadow will be in upcoming nights. And I'm totally game when that update drops! As said by others, some times the game bugs out and will not advance to the next screen. You may have fixed this already, since I was playing a previous version.
I featured this game in my recent video! I like the concept and I especially like how there was little pieces of the lore shown in the newspaper, it made me want to find out more about the story. Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish the game as I couldn't find the last item in Screen room 2, I think it might've bugged out as I checked every single chair multiple times to no avail. I think the monster might be a little too easy to avoid too as he wasn't really scary but more of just a nuisance. Besides that, I thought this was a really cool game, and I'd love to see a more polished version!
I was pleasantly surprised by this. It looks and plays pretty nice. I thought it would be a breeze until the lights went out! I like that more nights will be added over time. It’s always appreciated to see real effort being put into games. Well done!
It's cool to see that the creator is responding to a lot of the comments here. I played the game in my video from 0:44-8:45, I messed up at first because I read the rules wrong. After that the game was pretty easy to go through, I can't wait for more nights. This one itself gave me a few good frights, especially with the nice atmosphere.

Without saying too much, though, I’ve definitely thought about some of these already, expect to see some new stuff in Night 2 ;)

I liked it - however everytime I felt I was going to jump, I didn't.
