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

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.

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.

Amazing use of unnerving psychological horror! Had me lowkey turning around fr LMAO

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

(+1)

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

(1 edit)

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.

fun little adventure

Awesome game loved it!!! :)

Hi:3 cool game, interesting concept!

I liked the visuals and... gameplay, a maze for the mouse cursor in a horror, I've only seen that in that meme. AND I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A MOMENT LIKE THAT. What scared me the most was that I would be killed in the most intense moment when I should be concentrating on the maze. But no, which I think is cool, the game shattered my expectations

Btw don't make more sounds like that for screammers, it's funny, not scaryXD

Still cool though, good luck with future projects:3❤

bro make a part 2 to this game where we try to get the person that is trying to escape and everything. also 5 stars love the game man or woman. 

i have a exploit if u have a touch screen computer click the enter and the decent button and click them fast

Very interesting

how i play game

you should make the mouse hitbox bigger, it's so small it makes it easy

It's scary, I'm just comically bad at it. so vibe ruined, my own fault
