Holy crap, this was really terrifying. The creepiness ramps up to pure scare towards the end. The darkness in the game was just so.. Enveloping and thick and really captured the fear of turning the lights off and roaming in the dark.
The sounds were really, really well done and the environment had enough things to make it seem full and also to keep looking at random items and wonder if that was the monster you might have seen.
The only thing I found a bit sudden and different was to go through the house and take photos of the creature. The placements felt random and there wasn't a proper indicator as to where it was.
Other than that, I think that the placement of the creature in the dark where the plant is supposed to be near the bedroom was absolutely great and I really thought that it was a plant later on, which just shows that everything was ramped up well and made the game really creepy. Great job on it and good luck for future projects!
This game was a lot of fun...The first two nights, i feel like more should have happened like sounds or shadows or something(unless i missed it) But i still really liked the slowness of it. The slow build up had me hooked and unexpected. Loved it! Heres my gameplay of it..
Hi! Thanks for making and sharing this game - it was spooky (and disturbing at times lol). I particularly liked the use of sound to make the player unsettled. Also, the camera flashes got me good as jumpscares. I'll be sleeping with the lights on! ;)
well im back with another banger!! we played this on my live stream and had a blast! its a game about turning off the lights... im sure thats it ;) but its just a pro edited reaction compilation so its only like 4 minutes long so be sure to give it a watch!! love yall
Awesome game, loved the graphics and the home design. How much for the place? Anyway--the horror pacing was great and I liked the little challenge of locating spirits with the camera. Fun experience, thanks for creating :)
I'm very familiar with the fear of the dark. The suspension was very unnerving every night and every time I turned off the lights. Simple gameplay with charming visuals and very effective in terms of the horror aspect.
Hey, I played this game and I love the concept truly an example of a simple concept being turned into a chilling experience. Check out my playthrough on my channel
This game was kind of interesting, it wasn't very scary and not a lot happened. My friends and I played this game for a Random Horror Games video and it wasn't terrible but there also wasn't much "horror" in our opinions.
Thanks for playing! The game was somewhat experimental so it piggybacks off an existing fear from many people's childhoods, so it makes sense that it doesn't strike a chord for everyone in terms of horror. Nonetheless thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback!
Aye nice game here bro. Simple yet intriguing. We can all agree that as a child turning off the light and running upstairs a demon was chasing and this game brings back those experiences.👍👍
Simple concept, but well done in general. The start and the end game are great, but I did miss something in the middle. As if I needed a bit more story? I really liked it though! Good Job, developer =)
Yeah, it served mostly as an experiment so the story wasn't particularly well thought out. Tried to keep it as vague as possible so people can interpret it their own way to an extent. For me it symbolizes my sleep paralysis which gets progressively worse when I become sleep deprived, but I've heard some people interpreting it as cancer and degenerative diseases as it makes you feel helpless trying to stop it.
Always interesting to hear all the different perspectives from everyone!

That camera level was incredible
Hey I played this game on steam but it was still great!
Awesome game! The flash back when I was a kid racing up those steps trying to outrun the dark was REAL! Game here:

Played the game on my channel! I thought it was pretty scary; can't wait to see what else you make!
The game is very scary. I always had this fear of turning off the lights and going to sleep :0
I´m 47 now and the fear continues...
Played here :0 -->
Short but not bad. Like the progression of the creepiness each night. Made a video on it.
