Nice art style, very spooky music, great SFX. Overall a nice little horror game.
I did find the mouse movement a little finicky since it was how you looked around, but also how you interacted... and it took me a while before I realized what I could interact with or not. The doors were hard to find, and it took me way too long to see the gun.
That's just me being nitpicky. Overall, I had a fun play through.

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! That's a good point, yeah the gun does kinda blend in with the ground. I'll have to update them to give them an outline or maybe put them on a table or something that has a contrasting color
The sound design really helped the game feel more alive. The art style was also very fitting and well done, that paired nicely with the gameplay. There were times where I felt like there may have been too many monsters or felt as though my gun was a bit useless, but maybe that's also the feeling you'd like to achieve when it comes to horror. It would also be nice to not have to go through the beginning sequence of collecting everything every time you die. Overall, very cute and fun little game, great job! :)
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, the game ended up kinda difficult. If I were to expand the game I'd probably add some optional checkpoints if you aren't on the hardest difficulty like you see in some games
