Could not figure out where human things might be or how to get them, but I like the art and music! Successfully jumpscared me lol

Edit: NVM found the sock, beat  the game. That was cute! Tell Tiggy I said hi.

Developer (1 edit)

Lovely art! But... 



What is under the bed? O_O

Developer(+2)

who knows, maybe we will continue it after the jam!

Submitted(+2)

OMG really love the full screen arts, and the transitions are cool too, 

I invite you to play my game and give me some feedback as well ^^

Developer

will do!

Submitted(+2)

the black cat jumpscare was terrifying, very spooky

Developer

glad it spooked you!

Submitted(+2)

The detailed art is great and I like the screen transition. The game is quite unforgiving though so I didn't get that far. It would've been nice to have checkpoints or only starting over the current screen. Good job!

Developer

yeah, you are maybe right

Submitted(+2)

Great vibes. It genuinely jump-scared me a few times. Spooky sound for sure. Well done.

Developer

thanks!

Art is cool but I don't understand why the cat is killing me. Wandered for a bit and stopped playing. Really liked the vibe tho!

Developer(+1)

you got too close to the bushes where the cat is hunting

Submitted(+2)

The environment is well done, and the music helps in building it. However, I didn’t quite understand how to advance from this initial area. It wasn’t clear, and I managed to bug the game. I got close to the collider that changes the screen, and when the screen changed, the character was positioned inside the wall, making it impossible to move the character.

Developer

i'm sorry that happened, i couldn't get a lot of testing on bugs and edge cases :(

if you want to try again, you have to go to the bottom-right room and take something from there, then go to the top room and talk to an npc there

Very eerie feeling through out the game. I like it!

Developer

thanks :3

Developer(+1)

I jumped a little that first time! I loved the atmosphere of the whole thing, nice entry!

Developer

thanks a lot!

Submitted(+2)

really nailed the creepy/spooky vibe. definitely feels unsettling but also calm at the same time. i loved the sound, the color palette, and the monster designs. totally scared me when the creature attacked me from the bushes lol 

Developer

thanks for the kind words :3 i'm glad you liked it

Submitted(+2)

This was fun to play, I made it to the end. Like someone else said, it was a nice surprise that some of the monsters are friendly. Really nailed the atmosphere too.

Developer(+1)

yeah, for me the non-hostile monsters were the best to make

Submitted(+2)

"Cats" jumping from bushes looks ULTRA GOOD. 

Really good atmosphere in the game, also the style and dream-based concept make this very solid entry.

Developer(+1)

i'm sure tom read that, thanks for the compliments!

Submitted(+2)

I really liked the atmosphere and vibe of this game!

Developer

thanks :3

Submitted(+2)

Didn't quite understand when some things attacked me, the one coming out from the woods, it felt like sometimes was far away from the woods. Managed to walk a couple of rooms after several tries but couldn't complete it. The mood of the game, with its music, was spooky.

Developer

could have used a little more testing for sure

Submitted(+2)

Magnificently Horrific! . I'd be scared to play this as a child. 

Excited to show this to my nephew.

Developer

ohhhh, that's so nice to hear, hope they like it!

Submitted(+2)

I’ve always loved the idea of tying horror to dreams in a way that’s not just all about nightmares. You captured that quite well! I liked the monsters, they’re pretty eerie and unique from one another and it’s a nice surprised that some of them are just friendly.

Nice entry this, short, simply but to the point!

Rolled credits! :D image.png

Developer

thanks for trying the game! i liked the monsters the most too when testing it.
