hey the computer cheated it said there was nothing behind me but there was!
For anyone who is struggling on these levels:
ONLY THE TIP OF THE MOUSE CANT TOUCH THE WALLS. Basically the entire lower portion can overlap and you will be fine.
Also the reason you die while standing still is that when your characters view sways, the angle of the walls changes as well.
i like this game but i cant get past the one thats after the "turnaround" level. overall, i think this is a pretty cool game.
HOLY SHIT! THIS WAS SCARIER THAN WATCHING A HORROR MOVIE! I'm pretty sure I shit myself. Either way, this game is awesomeeeee! 1000/10!!
i was trying to turn around so fast that one time when it showed me through the camera!
mofo i got stuck in level 6 bc i couldnt beat it not bc it was lagged, and i just got frustrated for like an hour JAJA but great game tho, loved the buildup aven tho i didnt understand what was going on
that was awesome, the slight difficulty made the tension even greater, although the monster design was a bit underwhelming
love this idk why everyone complaining the levels were super easy
it keeps resting my mouse outside the boundaries and making me mad also does anyone know the meaning of the end
it keeps freezing up around level 5, is it part of the game or is it just crashing for me
Not the scariest game I've played, but great atmosphere. It was really suspenseful, and it got pretty intense by the end. I know a lot of people find the gameplay annoying, but I'm the type of guy that'll replay a level over and over to get the perfects score, so I enjoyed it a lot!
TLDR: If you like short, fast-paced, atmospheric games, this could be for you.
not scary at all but i failed the mazes so many times i wanna fucking kill myself
waste of time
Where the hell do you install the game???
Eu tive mais raiva jogando do que medo (sou horrivel hahaha) excelente jogo muito obrigado!

noice
Very cool GG
i have a exploit if u have a touch screen computer click the enter and the decent button and click them fast
i like the game but my problem was that i have to avoid the tight stuff that i hate to much
I like it but I was raging at level 3 broken a whole key for this lol but I recommend it if you like hard mazes
I saw this on Sambucha.
My mouse slipped and I accidentally fucked my friend while he watched me play this game :(
Ah, yes. The same problem occured to me.

escuchadme, juegazo en toda regla. un poco tostón si eres un cafre como yo, pero increíble los detalles, las preguntas ''sin sentido'', que luego lo acaban teniendo, 10/10. Ma flipao.

really good game! No story so far but for its graphics, its sounds and everything is pretty good considering this is free.
Love the game!
A honestly incredible horror experience. It keeps you in constant tension, builds up perfectly to its incredible moments, and presents really simple mechanics which the author knows how to deepen in order to establish constant fear and uneasiness into the player. This is a masterful short and simple work of art.
I honestly loved this project, and totally think you could even deepen the mechanics of the maze-like game a lot. Although, maybe building tension for longer play session would be difficult.
Lovely piece! Thank you for sharing it with the world. It gave me the chills.
cool game

That was really cool. I kept wondering if something would happen if I did or didn't look over the shoulder. I feel like you could easily incorporate a choose your own adventure style aspect to this. Very well executed :)

Awesome game. Really start to worry about who is behind me XD
really good but I was so mad that I couldn't even be scared
literally me the whole timeeee, it was more challenging than scary
pretty cool I gusse (bro I love that ending)
bruh this game is so hard even if like one molecule of the cursor touches the black parts I have to restart and also make mouse cursor hit box smaller
yes but the bottom of the cursor has no hitbox and only the top has a hitbox (edit if you don't have the same cursor and stuff idk if you can do this but you make your cursor smaller for more easy)
thanks
not scary at all
please make it harder light work.
