I love comments like this because they are genuinely so helpful. Among us was one of the inspirations for this game. fnaf was the other one even though I don't play it and I included the cake as a reference to portal. I also tried having some references to my first game I made: Project Helix by making them happen in the same lore universe and in some of the dialogue and the secret task (oou secrets lol)
The brightness screen was also a bit of a puzzle to try and solve since it was a bit of a tough balance of everything is so dark you can't see anything, and everything is so bright it ruins the atmosphere. With the limited time I just put some limits on it and hoped for the best haha.
For the sfx I 100% see where you are coming from. What I should have done was also leave it at 50% ish by default. This is a great learning opportunity though so now I won't make that mistake again.
Your computer randomly shutting down is not part of the game... Hopefully it's not a bug I don't know about lol. Weird coincidence though.
Thank you so much for playing and thanks for leaving this comment. It all helps so much!

Oh I'm completely sure my PC shutting off was a bug with my computer. I have an AMD GPU and it's been giving me an incredible amount of trouble, it's possible it failed to cool itself down after running the game and three monitors off an iGPU instead and it just cut power then and there. There's no chance it'd have been a bug, it's on me.
Sound design is tough! I don't blame you for having one real loud sound, the other games I've played so far have all had at least one as well. Glad to have helped :)
