This scared me, but I also wanted to go deeper. The perfect combination in a horror game. Beware of endless hallways.

Love all the noise going on when you're running, and suddenly sprinting into a room and seeing / hearing the static tv always gave my heart a bit of a race, this was awesome to explore around in!

Procedural generation at this level is a top notch thing to have in a game jam!

This was an interesting horror game that appears to be inspired by the Backrooms where I played the game. The static and idea of making the vision of the main character blurry, definitely made the game much scarier than it would have been. Moreover, the way the camera wobbles as the main character runs also made it more horrifying and scary as a whole. Even though the game is inspired by backrooms, the game makes use of modern office designs, bathroom tiles and other interesting additions like chairs, television and flooding into the game to make the game more interesting as the player progresses.

Wow. The overall mood was impressive. The most mood-breaking thing is the flashlight that have a strange behavior and it becomes really frustrating sometimes. Still, I loved the visual and the atmosphere! Edit: typo

Thank you! The flashlight was intended to seem like it was in your other hand, and will move with your character and have a mind of its own. Ill definitely address this in some way if I update the game after the jam!
