Hello, sorry for the inconvenience. You have to open "You are GROUNDED!.exe" inside the file you downloaded. There is only one folder inside the file, named "You are GROUNDED! v1.3.1_x64" or "You are GROUNDED! v1.3.1_x86", depending on which you downloaded. You'll find the .exe inside it with other files that you don't need to open.
For now we are focusing on fixing some minor bugs to make the flow of the game as flawless possible. Not sure about adding more content to the game, since we wanted to provide a self contained, open to self interpretation plot. We think it´s better to develop a completely new experience with the lessons learned from this one. Maybe a sequel in the future? Time will tell...
It´s 1997, Haddonfield, Illinois. You are trapped in the basement. Father is upstairs. He has been drinking all day. He wants to come down to give you a lesson. Do you have the guts to survive?
You are GROUNDED! is a post-horror B movie inspired narrative experience. It's a blend between different genres like walking simulator, platformer and, of course, horror. Everything is tied up to fulfill the story telling in an adult oriented theme.
First of all, thank you very much for playing!
And thank you very much for this detailed bug report, very appreciated!
It seems that the game start failing in some points after first complete run. Some global variables are storing things that weren't expected and persist between games. We are working on it right now, and we will upload the patch asap.
For now, try entering in the Windows Regedit console and delete the content at \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sepia Games\You are GROUNDED! It will set the game as a fresh start and might fix some of the issues you faced, but you will also lose all settings and progress. This quickfix doesn´t affect to get alternate endings.
And for the cockroaches, one hint: There is a tricky one before the scene you mentioned, but does not affect to the third ending.
