Amazing entry, the atmosphere is perfect, gave me chills before the last part. My only nitpick is that after taking and shaking the photos it would take too long to move on, I would have liked the ability to just right click out of it, because some pictures were just normal and I wanted to keep moving and taking more pictures.

A cool experience!  I was a bit worried because I don't like horror games but it wasn't that scary while being atmosferic. Nice

Good game! I got pushed and stuck in the floor by the staircase when I made a photo of the roof in the bedroom, Didnt quite understand what happened to me untile I watched other's gameplay

Good atmosphere, didn't outstay it's welcome and I will like any game with PSX aesthetics and camera mechanics and this had both. Also it reminded me of ANATOMY.

Submitted

A short but complete story! It creates a very good atmosphere. However, there are some issues with the graphics rendering at times (even on Windows).

Submitted

Got to the stairs.
Noped out.
I can't handle scary games, so I don't know why I clicked on this.
Never got to see why the theme makes sense, doesn't matter.
9/10 would nope out again

the house I can afford:

That's it, I'm done playing jam games for today. Very moody and intense! Don't see the relation to the theme, but I think you nailed the atmosphere of what you were going for.

Submitted

Good puzzles and we really enjoyed the suspense

Submitted

I liked level design and mood setting of the game, but, personally, I'm not sure I can really feel the theme of the jam

Submitted

I love the design of the game! The puzzles were also fun to complete.

Unfortunately I really can't play the game as I can't stand horror. Even with films is the same thing. But I forced myself to give it a try  considering how popular it is. The looks are pretty amazing honestly, like the whole atmposphere you created. It reminds me of those old PS2 graphic style. Really really well done

Thanks for giving it a go! Glad you liked it!

Love the horror vibe in this game! It made me get goosebumps. The graphic looked super glitchy in my Mac chrome though. Hopefully it'll work well in Safari.

Developer

Yeah, im aware that the game is super glitchy on mac. Sorry for that. :(

Amazing art, The camera mechanic is awesome and fits the art style and time period, impressed with how you got this into a working web game and happy you did so great job.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the nice words! I always have a web build in mind when Im making games for jams.

Really well done! Fantastic atmosphere and use of sound effects

Developer

Thank you! <3

Great game. I think I somehow clipped out of the attic at the end so I played it again to get the true experience. Really messes with you.  I love that the game does not do much to scare the player and leaves it up to their imagination.

Developer(+1)

Damn, i knew that would happen to someone. The attic is a wonky place. Glad you enjoyed it regardless. :)

Submitted

Love PSX style games as well as the overall vibe. Felt like the walking was a bit too slow though outside of the house. Not too sure how it fits to the theme though

Good looking horror game, art style really gave that old-school Resident Evil/Silent Hill vibe.

Submitted(+1)

Developer

Thanks for playing! <3
