  • Interactive fiction is hard to make engaging, so it's really cool you made something that emulates Discord to create a horror experience that makes people feel like they're just chatting to a friend who happens to be more than a little messed up. Really convincing UI too. Great work!

Really enjoyed it; always great to see how social culture and its new venues of communication change up what we can do with art and entertainment!

Developer

Thx Thx!

Banger music, overall very interesting and good game.

Developer

Really glad you liked the song!

Submitted(+1)

Nice Game, I liked the music. I Like the fact that it was fairly short and simple, I prefer Jam games to keep the length down.  Also a nice touch just shutting it down like that at the end. Always sucks when a friend or loved one switches on you like that lol

Developer

Oof that’s a mood right there. “Left on read” lol.

The reproduction of the chat environment is very nice and this guy kept me intrigued right to the end !

Nice concept overall. I really wanted to see where the story goes. At the beginning I didn't knew what to do exactly but fun overall. Good job!

Developer

Haha yeah, we should’ve made the “newer messages” button pop out more.

Neat Game! (hehe) It made me feel uneasy and the music was great! 

Developer

Thank you! ...and OH GOD IF I HEAR THAT PUN AGAIN I SWEAR-

Submitted(+1)

Very cool concept!! I got spooked by that guy

Developer

The guy is indeed spoopy.

Creepy story but I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to be doing more. The voice at the end is the stuff of nightmares too, reminded me of Hellblade: Senuas Sacrifice - good job!

Developer

We planned for you to be able to do more, there was a whole thing about hiding a URL that you can access with the in-game browser blablabla but we ran out of time.

Thx for playin’!

Submitted(+1)

Interesting concept, I was very immersed in the conversation and the increasing strangeness was scarier than the scream at the end.

Good job

Developer

Thank you! Honestly the scream was more for the funsies to fit the cliche haha. I did try my best to make the convo the main meat.

Submitted(+1)

That's good enough. The screamer at the end complements the game well.

Developer

Liked the story telling. Technically not a game, but I had fun.

Would it be possible to have "Midnight Messages" to download. That tune is great! :)


Developer(+1)

Thank you, Mr. Duck.

Aaaand yeah, I'll get the song out soon(tm). It's gonna need a little edit but shouldn't be long!

Developer

Glad to hear!

Fun and creepy. I'm gonna go touch grass now.

Developer

Keep your dosage of grass touching in check, don't want to get dragged into a cult believe me.

Man I love Linux! Etunes my fav. Great writing everything felt natural and I thought it was cool how you used the punctuation to convey the imposters inconsistencies. Really cool good job.

Developer

Ayy tyty!

Submitted(+1)

This was such a creative project! Bravo on all of this, and great game!

Developer

Much obliged!

Submitted(+1)

This was fun! As many have said, it'd be fun if you could decide on what to say, but it's a Game Jam, you already did a lot! I liked the interactions, it felt like me shooting the shit with my friends.

Developer(+1)

The shit shoots were shat from my poopy hole.  (This isn't a professional look for my itch page haha.)

Submitted(+1)

The story was interesting, I just would have wished we had a bit more choice what to say or do. Curious who was on the other end of that talk.

Developer(+1)

Thx thx! Would def love to do some choices matter stuff next time round.

Submitted(+1)

Fun and creepy! Love how you play with the concept of not knowing who's really on the other side of the screen.

Developer

YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN IP-GRABBED.

Developer
