How does you game fit the theme?
So basically sleep paralysis seems realistic but it isn't, its all in your mind. This game is about sleep paralysis.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yep, me and my teammate made everything from scratch

Oh gosh the jumpscare- I was definitely caught off guard! This was a nice, simple clicker game! I think the audio is a bit too loud, but it definitely does spook you on the first play through! I think it would be nice if there were a "demon count" or something though, so you can keep track of how many you've gotten rid of! Good work!

I didn't understand how to play at first. And you lose so quickly you don't have time to figure out what to do.

Developer

I agree. But again, its a scuffed game supposed to be really scuffed on purpose .-. Thanks for the feedback!

Developer

Yeah, I'll check it out!

I'm not really good with jumpscare and that last scream just makes me jump a bit and freak out because there's no retry button as it keeps screaming at me :) . others have mentioned that the shadow appears too fast and I would agree, maybe make it appear faster as the player survives longer. Good game nevertheless.

Developer

Yep, jumpscared me countless times while playtesting

Offers some very chaotic and unique gameplay. Well done!

Feel like the shadows appear a bit too quickly, I couldn't keep up with them at all. I liked the opening graphic before the game started. Also I got confused by the pressing Z to start. I thought it was a 2, took me a bit to realize my error.

Developer

Thanks a lot for the feedback! A lot of people have been saying about the shadows appearing too quickly, I feel like I playtested it a lot so I became good at it lol. And I will use some other font next time, thanks for the feedback!

Is there a way to retry after you get yelled at by the face?

Developer

I didn't think that through lol. You just gotta re-load. Its a scuffed game without a retry button .-.

Its a really hard game but it has a good concept. Id love it if you would rate my game.

Developer

Thanks, I'll check out your game

Well it's certainly well fitting to the theme hahaha, not sure if it's very game-y though. Good work on finishing the game, and I'd love if you could check out mine too!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot! I recently started going to school after being homeschooled so I couldn't think of an idea that was good enough. We tried to add some more game-y elements to the game though but yeah its still kinda scuffed. I'll surely check out your game!

Lmao! The scream was supposed to be a high pitched scream but my teammate just screamed into the mic and it sounded funny so we kept it
