  • Great lo-poly horror title reminiscent of 90s console graphics. Maze games can be a dime a dozen, but this game has plenty of unusual characters with interesting hand-drawn sprites and some light puzzles to keep the game fresh. The atmosphere and tone is an absolute gem and I would love to see more worldbuilding like this!

Augh I have no hands! :) Fun! Atmospheric! Retro! Nice game! (Back in the day those hands would have looked like some really amazing graphics...)

i loved the art style and the atmosphere, so great

The dialogue in this game goes so hard! I've never had a game tell me I don't have hands! The atmosphere is also really good!

This was so good, loved the art style in general but the HandSome fella is my favourite. Although the merchant is a close second. I kinda wish I could have had more time to explore and just look at the characters, but then again the game would feel less tense, so it'd probably be less satisfying to beat it. The eye appearing whenever the nightmare spotted you was clever, I understood right away what was happening!

The music really helped with the dream like feel, just think it could have done with being a little bit less repetitive?

Really loved the FPS hands, super well done style. The monster was really fast and had my heart beating HARD. Really enjoyed everything, great stuff!!

i like the aesthetics a lot! the creature designs are great and i got a good laugh over the hand one. the turn speed is a little frustrating, and the constant tp'ing back too, but it was still fun. great job!

Very cool game, I really loved the aesthetics, however I would of liked to be able to run or the base walking speed to be slightly faster <3
