No worries at all! Thanks again for giving it a shot and reporting the crash in the first place. I'll get that memory leak fixed for the next update. Stay safe in the void!

Hey evapilot03, thanks for playing and dropping the feedback! I'm really glad you liked the core concept.

Good catch on the crash – there seems to be a memory/audio leak in the browser build when resetting the level multiple times. I'm noting this down and will fix the reset-logic for the next patch!

Quick question since you survived a few attempts: Did the 3D-audio tracking (left/right breathing) feel accurate to you before it froze?

Thanks again for testing!

The Concept: You are trapped in a pitch-black labyrinth. There is no map. There is no light. Your only way out? Trusting your ears. This is a short, intense horror experience designed to test your paranoia.

Key Features:

Zero Friction: Playable directly in your browser with a single click.
Positional 3D Audio: The monster breathes, footsteps echo, and the jumpscares are purely sound-driven.
Atmospheric Visuals: A gritty, retro PSX-style aesthetic.
Speedrun Friendly: Can you find the key and the exit in under 5 minutes?

The Dev-Swap Deal: I am dev luce, a solo developer, and I just pushed this live. I’m looking for honest feedback and ratings to get the algorithm moving.
