Creepy vibes!  At first I wandered around the house and kept running into the locked rooms and kept my eye on the statue like a hawk.  I'd go to a run and spin around.  Nothing.  Finally when I picked up the first key I was like... that must be the trigger.  YEP.  The statue was gone from his spot and that eerie ambience just kept me on edge.  I found a couple more keys but didn't actually make it out of the house. I was too spooked to keep going hahaha

Loved the vibes! The door slamming creeped me out. Controls felt a bit wonky and I ended up falling out of the map, but overall fun and spoopy

Developer

Oh no, sorry you fell out of the map! Do you know where? Also, thanks for playing it anyways, glad that at least the vibes were spooky!

right at the entrance as I was trying to escape. The statue was right behind me so it may have pushed me out? 

Developer

Oh shoot that's probably it. Thanks for letting me know.

Interesting concept and cool sounds! Technical performance could be improved. There are some places where walls don't align and where you can fall of the map. Also lighting can be improved. I believe that it can become a cool game! Believe in yourself and try!

Thanks for playing! Yeah, the level was fairly rushed, especially since it was fairly large. Hopefully can be improved later.
