Always like to see horror games for jams! The Tiny Tim song gave me a little chuckle, I think they used it in the movie Insidious as well! I'm not sure I understood the premise of the game exactly, I'm thinking that I was playing as Tomvolio popping the balloons? I liked the progression of going through the areas more than once with things getting creepier every time, reminded me of PT! I ended up getting the bad ending unfortunately and tried to play through it again but I think I encountered a bug because I couldn't play through a second time. Overall though it's a great start to a horror game, and my one main criticism is that the screen you play through is just a bit too small. I think making it nearly full screen with just the edges of the TV showing would help make it more immersive and creepy!

Thanks for playing! I really enjoyed your playthrough of my little horror game ^^ I will take your feedback on board when I'm developing the final build of the game. Insidious is one of my favourite horror movies and I kind of linked the theme to that movie with its themes of the "other world" and diving deeper into that. I wanted to make a somewhat  ethereal   space where on the surface it doesn't make any sense but there is a reason for everything in the game. I wanted to emulate how I feel when I'm spiralling downwards mentally. The popping of the balloons is meant to represent the tedious and repetitive tasks throughout my life and sometimes days seem like they're blending together with very subtle changes in between. At the end of the hallway you end up where you begin, bed... The reason why you're looking through a T.V. screen is that sometimes I feel like I'm not actually living, just being a character in a movie that is playing on repeat. Hence diving deeper into insanity. Overall thanks for checking out my game! it was a real treat watching you play :)
