How does you game fit the theme?
The game talks about a boy who's having trouble sleeping and thinks he has Insomnia because of his nightmares and lack of sleep, you play through one of his nightmares where he has to escape the ghost, solve a little puzzle, obtain the key to his parents room and escape. The plot twist is that the boy actually does not have parents and he is in an orphanage. It is not real, the dream wasn't real, his parents weren't real. There's also a few things in the game that follow the theme of "it is not real".
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
The code is completely written from scratch. The assets are from kenny.nl using their software "Asset Forge" which I paid for and used to create brand new assets and design my level. The audio was provided by a fellow audio engineering student. Everything is credited in the credits menu.

i couldn't play it due to the large size, but from the comments, I can guess that it's really cool,
I've still rated it 5 ;)
Can't get over the intro really love it it's just something I don't see that much
Thank youuu! Glad you liked jt :) Thanks for playing
The intro was very cool and the music made it a lot scarier.
Nice job
Thank you so much for playing the game! I’m glad it was scary :)
Really appreciate the intro, it's clear you put a lot of work into making it look nice and it really shows! The assets are great too, just the right amount of detail. Atmosphere is pretty spooky, glad to have played this!
A lot of good comments about the into! Thank you guys. I’m glad you enjoyed it and thank you for playing the game :)
The comic intro is very well done. The atmosphere and sound are Incredibles too!
The game is a little too scary for me, which I think is the theme of the game! well done.
Thank you so much! Yeah the aim is to make you spooped hehe. Sorry for the nightmares :P
Thank you for playing <3
I managed to find 3 numbers and chickened out T_T Thank you for providing a video. That ending is surprisingly sad.
Haha! Yeah… So the numbers are 8 (on the TV), 5 (on the rock, outside of the kitchen), 3 (behind the stairs on the 2nd floor) and 1 (on the tv in the girl’s room). :)
Hope you liked it! Thank you for playing.
Oooh I missed the one outside the kitchen. I'm too scared to go near windows haha good job on setting up the creepy factor!
Wow, I got to say this game has a very scary atmosphere. Apparently, the ghost can't climb stairs, so I spent a great deal of my time on the second floor because I was so scared. I also love how you added a comic to your game intro. Spot on for the theme, great job overall, well done!
Yes! The ghost climbing the stairs made the game super hard so after multiple feedbacks from friends I’ve decided to make it only climb the stairs if you spend a great deal of time teasing it around the stairs haha. Thank you so much for playing and for your time!
