This was surprisingly scary! The pixel art was incredible--the kid in his onesie or whatever was really cute and everything was simplified but perfectly readable. The UI prompt also really impressed me. 

I have to say I personally didn't have much fun with this one--the objectives would sometimes lag behind the progress of the story, and I did die once from not knowing how to get out of the tub. I also felt like it was...very, very tight in terms of margins for error. I came to look at the comments to see if it was even completable. It was, and I did beat it, but in the end I did feel a little bit frustrated with the experience. My first instinct when asked to find a weapon, for example, was to pick up one of the hoes or shovels on the wall. One of those tools even had a little blood on it; I thought for sure that was some kind of signposting. Of course, that wasn't the correct solution.

I imagine you had that type of thing planned--more variety and choice and stuff--especially since there are apparently more endings. But a jam is what it is, and I'm very impressed that you created all of this and got it to be so spooky. Good job!

Can't argue with the theme, it's definitely a horror game!  The intro card is cool.  The instructions are clear.  The house isn't so big that I get lost in it.  The ball is fun to kick around.  And spooky enemy!  I had a hard time getting the run away timing right, and I managed to double press e back into recent rooms multiple times, but nothing felt too cheap or too gimmicky, so I'm happy.

Great game!

Love the artwork, definitely on theme. It wasn't really fun though, the objectives just tell you go here go here go here and you just follow. Needs more anticipation and jump scares, I kinda just ran into the black creature and then died and I was confused.

Thanks to my own ineptitude, I managed to die twice. I had gotten the knife and was thinking I had to run upstairs and hide, but the guy got me by the ladder.

By my third run, however, the heartbeat sound effect persisted, making it feel like something was wrong. When I died then, the game froze in the main menu, and I was unable to start the game.

From what I did play, however, the game is solid! It's a simple but effective premise, that, despite its cutesy 2D art style, manages to be quite scary at times. By my third try, however, it was more of a stress-scare than a spook-scare.

I hope you'd be willing to polish the game a bit further outside of the jam and release a longer version. 

Cute graphical style. Sound will bug out if you die, though, or just bug in general. There is a bit of overlap between when you hit transition to another scene and the time you’re able to move around. ‘it was all a dream’ is a little cliche, but that’s alright.

The graphics and atmoshphere in general are very well done - 10/10 for the horror theme. But to be honest, I haven't quite figured out what the overall objective of the game is (other than fail miserably at running away :), or if there's even a way to beat it (as the other comments suggest). Still, from a visual perspective, nively done.

Theme: Horror theme is there, and the style/lighting contributes to it well

Fun: A bit of a walking simulator, it didn't feel quite tense due to some walking effect sound issues. Also I wasn't clear on the game mechanics (hiding in bathtub doesn't save you from getting caught), and restarts felt punishing. Due to the timer, I assume this is a speedrunner game, so I wasn't part of the core audience.

Game Design: The pixel art was really good and the overall environment was great. Some of the issues mentioned dragged down the experience for me, and I quit after failing the game several times (last time with the bathtub). Some of the secions felt a bit too tight (running away from monster gave you no leeway in standing there, if you didn't run immediatelly you were screwed)

Overall, a good game with some minor issues that could be a nice speedrun challenge

This game gives me "The Worlds Hardest Game" feelings for anyone who remembers that game but it doesn't feel intentional. It took me around 7 tries to finally beat the game for reasons that are out of my own control that required trial and error to figure out. The game is quite simple and linear leading to repetition every try. Simply put I feel like this game suffered from a lack of polish which could have been remedied with just a little more time. However due to it's inherent simplicity there is not much to gripe about and was satisfying to finally beat.
