itch.io

When I went into this game, I honestly didn't know what to expect. I've played my fair share of indie horror games,  and truth be told, I've grown rather sick of how rife the genre is with the same few tropes over and over again.

Upon playing this game, however, I was actually rather pleasantly surprised. Without giving too much away, all I can say is please play this game. Few people have experimented with the medium in the same way as Afraid (Frost The Hobidon Mod) has. That ending... what the crap?

5 out of 5.

no problem

finish your game

Incredible. So far backieeeeee

This was fun! I think the game scales a bit too fast but at the same time it makes sense for the roguelite format. 4/5

This is the best game I've ever played

Awesome!! Excited to finally play the next arc

You rule! Cheering u on

"what you are saying is that there is no subject off limits"

I think you're on to something...

"meaning 7 year old's can talk about pornography and NSFW?"

I've already expressed support for placing trigger warnings. If you take your logic to its extremes, then we should all avoid discussing certain topics in ANY context because a 7 year old might be secretly listening in. Absurd censorship logic.

Hey, just to bring things back into context and out of this fantasy land of hypotheticals, we're talking about a game that mentioned child abuse in the abstract in one line of its description, and NOWHERE in the actual game.

"I can't explain you how life works"
Oh cool, the same level of "my worldview is objective" arrogance as the other person.

Anyways, the fact that you're comparing itch.io to a church is hilarious.

The solution is placing trigger warnings, not declaring subjects off limits.

Oh, I'm sure. I'm just satirizing how mindlessly dismissive their arguments are.

Wait can you write another long winded reply that nobody cares about real quick

That's actually a good point

^ making all of this up

I still don't understand what's going on here though... does anyone else find it strange that this account was created 16 hours ago AND has my username within THEIR username? It's confusing the hell out of me, because it feels like a joke, but they're actually making really good points

Well, insofar as. But I get the point you're trying to make

I'm not sure why there's someone with my username in their username... But regardless, I agree with your comment, and I apologize for my foolishness.

Yeah, it's worth acknowledging that I'm making an assumption here as to why the game was suspended. Could have been for another reason.
But also - damn, I'd think that merely mentioning something isn't equivalent to depicting something.

I'm curious why it was suspended to begin with. Let's suppose it was intended for the game to allude to child abuse: doesn't it make sense for this sort of subject matter to be in a horror game, which broaches horrifying subject matter such as child abuse? To be clear: I can understand a suspension if the game was glorifying child abuse, or if the game actually contained graphic descriptions/depictions of child abuse. But otherwise, as far as the mere mention/allusion to child abuse, shouldn't a content warning suffice-- and shouldn't players decide for themselves whether they wish to engage with potentially triggering media? Because to me, it seems appropriate for the genre. 

Forgive me if this is a silly question, I only ask after browsing the TOS and community guidelines, and not finding anything on the matter.

(Of course, if ParkMinJoke failed to put up aforementioned content warning/adult content warning, then I can ALSO understand the suspension...)

This game was really touching. I appreciate this a lot. Thank you.

I don't understand what the person below me is on about, considering this is a horror game, and playing as the antagonist is hardly a new thing in storytelling. This game has bigger problems, however. The cursor doesn't lock during gameplay, so it kept moving over to my second monitor as I looked around, and while figuring out the controls at first, this led to me repeatedly clicking myself out of the game. Looking around itself is incredibly glitchy/jumpy - so is movement, I constantly kept getting stuck in objects and would have to restart the game because I couldn't move. After a while it just lost steam and I stopped playing. If you can fix the glitches I mentioned above, it might be more playable.

Looking forward to the next arc. I like the themes, curious to see how the story is developed
