I'm scared. Good horror athmosphere, the first dummy suprised me. I can feel the horror, but I think it will be better with some more "mysterious" elementh. Overall good job for completing the game!

Thank you so much! Also for the playthrough on Youtube! Great to watch :).
You're right about the stress levels, might have needed to make it more obvious that you can reduce it in the light area at the start. Also we wanted to add more mechanics with the dummies, but didn't have enough time left :).

Will check out your game too!

No problem, started to figure it out as I went through, its hard with such a short amount of time, also pretty good voice acting, I feel like thats pretty hard, wanted to do that in mine but every take I did was super awkward

I really dig the atmosphere and the voice acting is a nice addition, but the running dummy near the exit (?) always gets me. Thanks for not blowing up my ears when I get caught! Is there any way to decrease the stress level?

Thank you so much for playing! You can decrease the stress in safe zones. Basically where you hear the 'Ok ok just calm down' voice part. We need to make that more obvious indeed :)

Right, I missed the first safe zone entirely and didn't even make it to the stairs. Knowing that, I finally finished the game. The 2 jumpscares after the emergency door got me good (though I really dislike jumpscares) but the game got really stressful near the end with the increased stress and lack of safe zones, which was nice. The stress level should decrease faster though, I was waiting forever in the first zone

It gave me a fright! The voice, the crash, I think I jumped when I hear that!

Good game!
