Eerie exploration horror, and a great accomplishment for a second game. Great work on the interiors, they feel like a lot of work was put into making the house feel expansive. Some scripted sequences help maintain the tension well too. Having multiple endings based on the puzzles and ritual really helps replayability!
Thanks for submitting House in the Woods to the jam!
My friend was watching as I was playing and went "AH" as a knife shot out towards me and killed me. 10/10.
On a serious note, I think the game has a lot of potential, especially with the story.
But I'd appreciate more interface so it's clear what I can or cannot do, and perhaps some (small) indication of my progress.
I like your idea of a horror puzzle game, but I couldn't solve the book puzzle, and I don't understand what the meditation is for?
Besides some obscure points, I like that your game has multiple endings and I will definitely play again if you give me some little clue ;D
Thank you for playing and the feedback - I have updated game description with instructions to make it clearer.
