I really loved this game Point n' Click games ain't really my style but this one was simply amazing This game is really well made and I wish we could get a longer version, or maybe another game like this for browser
Thank you very much Mr.Sir38 ! :-D My next project will take time to emerge and I'm afraid it will require more powerful technology than a browser. Nevertheless, I will always remain concerned about the weight of a project because I know that not everyone can afford a gaming PC. Thanks again and greetings from France !
Sorry, I no longer do business related to members of this site since I received questionable messages in my mailbox. Thank you for the suggestion and your comment :-D Greetings from France !
This was a surprisingly fantastic game. The puzzles weren't too tough and it all comes together at the end. The design of the creature and layout of the house were great and that one scare in the basement looked awesome. I'll admit, I don't really understand the secret ending so I'm assuming it's an inside joke kinda thing. Either way, it's always cool to see extra stuff!
I watched your test until the end and really thank you for this video, nice work.
The secret ending is indeed a joke, a bonus inspired by the secret endings of the Silent Hill saga. But I recognize that without the reference and even with a thank you letter, after spending time getting 35/35, that kind of award can be very, very disappointing.
These are things I write to avoid making the same mistakes again later. This is my very first game so of course I did some bullshit XD
Just wow. I've tried many point and click horror games over the years and disliked them; they just felt lackluster and tedious. But the atmosphere in this was amazingly creepy and had me hesitating to turn around corners. You got a jump out of me many times. Thank you for making this horror gem.
I've played quite a few point 'n click horror games over the years and I think I understand how you may have felt. Even good games today suffer from somewhat aging game mechanics. I don't think my game will escape it either over time ^^.
Thank you very much for your compliments and for the 5 stars. It was a pleasure.
It opens. Go check the code again, you are missing small details. Same thing happened to me, put in the code and it didn't work. Looking at the box, I realized the code I thought was right was wrong then had to go check code again.
Talk about a late reply but if I remember correct you look at the animal horns hanging on the wall downstairs and compare it to the box upstairs on the bed.
i think you might have gotten the code wrong, pay attention to the shapes surrounding the shape in the center if that makes sense??.. since for example there's 3 woman ones but the difference between the 3 is that one is a circle, one is a square, one is a triangle. I hope this made sense although my English isn't very good.
Thank you very much Rhys ! Thank you for taking the time to play it and make this video. It's always a pleasure to know that people were able to have a good time on my game. Greetings from France !
I was looking for a game to play while in work so I wouldn't fall asleep, and now I'm awake af because of this shocking horror experience! This game is amazing <3
I love this game. The ending was unexpected and great and the overall look of the game is so well done and sold the creepy and off-putting feeling of the game, I also love the secret ending, It was cute and funny and worth playing the game many times. I would love to see more games from you, no matter when they come out, I'll be playing them.
This was a great game, I loved every second of it... Apart from the moment when it froze in the middle of the ending cinematic ^^' (I think my Internet connection is to blame for it though, not the game!) Kudos, and I will follow you "just in case".
PS : J'ai joué à la version anglaise par réflexe, je me referai le jeu en VO un de ces quatre :)
I'm sorry for the bug during the ending cinematic. This is my 1st game and there are flaws related to my lack of experience. Even if you had internet connection problems, it's my role as a developer to think about this kind of situation and find a solution. These are flaws that I will correct in a future game. Thanks Again :-)
PS : La VO c'est la même chose avec des baguettes, du vin, du fromage et les créatures font la grève au lieu de t'attaquer.
Thank you very much Arkane84 :-) I'm glad you had a good time. It will probably be a while before I start developing a new game. Greetings from France.
such a creepy little game!! even in full daylight, the atmosphere and audio managed to have me creeped out :'D i looove how this looks, the fact that it's not quite realistic but not low poly either leads to something i think is the most creepy and 'off' feeling in vibe. one of the best point and clicks i've played recently, too!
Thank you so much cherubcurse :-D I see what you're talking about. I was very inspired by the background visuals of the first 3 RESIDENT EVIL released in the second half of the 90's. I'm glad you had a good time cherub :-) Greetings from France !
Late reply but yes you are missing small details. Just check the source of the code again carefully and compare to the box and you will catch what you missed. If you're still stuck, the dev has answered the question here in the comments.
Hello Julian, getting ready to play the game and put the result on Youtube for my channel! Heard good things about it, so very excited. Will let you know how it goes :)
You can't even imagine the respect I have for you seeing what you've done.
The thumbnail is ultra clean. The game is 100% complete. The video can be played in 4k and 60fps. You put chapters. You took care to make a cool fast forward effect to make the video more enjoyable to watch for your viewers. You didn't play my game, you made love to her XD
More seriously, Your work is that of a true artist. Congratulations on all your hard work and patience.
Wow, thank you. I used to play lots of point-and-click games when I was young, but horror games in the 90's wasn't that scary. Your game was really nostalgic to me.
Thank you so much chlo(e x 8) ;-D Really sorry for the problems you encountered. This is my very first game and I still have a lot to learn before making a new one. Thanks again chloeeeeeeee ! Greetings from France ^^
Your compliment makes me very happy. Thank you so much MaroPanda :) I had already watched your lets play :-D. I often go to youtube to see if I find new videos of my game there. Thanks again and greetings from France.
It' Niven, I am a game dev and a huge fan of your work. Maybe you would like to check out some of my games, especially the new release "Sunken". I would really like to hear your input on it. Thanks in advance. Greetings from U.K.
Edit: The game is Lovecraftian horror genre, just FYI.
I remember you very very well. You are the first person to have posted a let play and a very nice comment on my game. You even integrated it into a top 10 video and that made me very happy. I had already been on your page to try some of your visual novels but my lack of practice in English had prevented me from enjoying the experience as I would have liked and it's really a shame.
I'm trying SUNKEN very soon and I'll post you a comment and a rating. Thank you again for believing in my game before everyone else internationally.
Thank you very much bienli :-D It must be an itchio problem. I specify in case that if you speak of the 4:3 ratio of the game, it is an aesthetic choice on my part. Greetings from France. Take care dear neighbor.
Ce que vous avez pris le temps de faire me touche. Je trouve votre article vraiment bon et très honnête vis-à-vis des retours des joueurs sur les + et les - Merci beaucoup pour votre article, votre commentaire et votre note. Des tas d'ondes positives à toute l'équipe :3
This is an amazing work, It left me wanting to keep playing even after the game ended, I think the atmosphere is very well created and is very enjoyable.
I enjoyed it so much that I thought it would be fun to Speedrun this game, and so I did, even some friends went further and optimized the game to complete it in 7 minutes, crazy! I have many questions to ask on a technical level if you were willing to answer, but I do not want to bother either, amazing job Julien! I leave the video of one of my friends completing it in 7 minutes if you want to see it!
It's really great work ! I love speedruns, I watched a lot of them not that long ago. Thank you very much to you and your friend. Ask me all the questions you want.
I would really like to know if the randomness in the secure box each number is random? or there's a certain number of combinations, this would helps a lot for our optimization finishing the game, we already found like 10 of them but we are still finding a lot more, also you are invited to our Speedrun community of this game if you want to watch by yourself the things are we finding to optimize the game ;) https://www.speedrun.com/invitationemhttps://discord.gg/D5x7wFmJgF
+ The 1st has marks on the B, C and F keys. + The second, the A, D and E keys.
For the following explanations, I will take the example of the BCF pattern.
You should know that a function in the program prevents you from finding it the first time. If by chance you enter the correct combination the first time, the game tells you that you made a mistake and the correct answer is redetermined by the program. Players succeeding the second time do not know it but they achieve a perfect.
Next : The game talks about 6 possible combinations but that's a "lie".
In reality I have eliminated the back and forth combinations of the possibilities (BCF and FBC). It is very often the combinations that are tried first by the players.
So we are left with 4 real possibilities (BFC, CBF, CFB and FBC).
Obtaining this puzzle would amount to entering one of these 4 to pass the false first try stage as quickly as possible and really start the puzzle. In short, knowing all this, the number of possibilities by in reality from 6 to 3.
I chose to program this puzzle this way to create an illusion of challenge. I found it ridiculous at the time of the tests to arrive at this enigma and that sometimes the most obvious of the 6 combinations was the right ones the first time.
I am French and I translate on google. I hope it can help despite my bad English.
Julien, I found the game idea very good and very interesting, I wanted to know two things about the game, the first thing is if there will be a mobile version for the game in the Google Play Store, the second thing is if the game will also have on steam.
Currently I have no plans to go any further with this game. It will probably only stay on Itch.io (for the official version. Because I found out that others have posted the game elsewhere). And then honestly I don't think the game is good enough to be accepted on steam. Your post still makes me want to check how things work on Google Play Store. Thank you :-)

I really appreciate. Thank you very much Funtime ! :D
and yes i speed run it
Great job !
i put in the code for the jewlery box but it doesn't open. thats a bummer how does it open
It opens. Go check the code again, you are missing small details. Same thing happened to me, put in the code and it didn't work. Looking at the box, I realized the code I thought was right was wrong then had to go check code again.
how did you find the code for it?
Talk about a late reply but if I remember correct you look at the animal horns hanging on the wall downstairs and compare it to the box upstairs on the bed.
i think you might have gotten the code wrong, pay attention to the shapes surrounding the shape in the center if that makes sense??.. since for example there's 3 woman ones but the difference between the 3 is that one is a circle, one is a square, one is a triangle. I hope this made sense although my English isn't very good.
This really helped
does anyone know how to get the key in the box on the bed? I did the pattern correctly it just won't budge.
Go check the code again, it opens but you are missing small details. Compare the box to the source carefully and you will see.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video Taco ! And thank you very much for playing !
Greetings from France :)

Be careful not to get caught in your workplace, the fear could become even more real ^^.
Greetings from France !
I legit don't understand how to open up the box to get the key, otherwise than that, the game is really cool and fun.

The code is located in the lobby. The symbols on the 3 stained glass windows... not to mention the shapes that surround them.
Greetings from France ! :)
I love this game.

I would love to see more games from you, no matter when they come out, I'll be playing them.
Thank you very much Pandamor :3
It's really nice.
I would like to make a new game but I have work to do before that is possible again. Take good care of yourself.
Greetings from France :)

This is exactly the genre of adventure I love. Beautiful graphics and atmosphere, congrats! Do a longer and harder sequel and I'll buy it asap :)
Thank you very much Arkane84 :-)
I'm glad you had a good time. It will probably be a while before I start developing a new game.

nevermind i figured it out, great game
It was vicious to add the shapes in the combination, wasn't it ? XD
Thank you so much Deadinside776 :-D

Thank you very much GHDT !
Enjoy the game ! I hope you won't encounter any bugs :-)
very good graphics and dark atmosphere
Thank you very much RBG !
These elements took me some time. I'm glad you like them :-)
Greetings from France !
After playing through the whole game over and over I was finally able to reach investigation level 35/35. It's a great point-and-click horror game.
You can't even imagine the respect I have for you seeing what you've done.
The thumbnail is ultra clean. The game is 100% complete. The video can be played in 4k and 60fps. You put chapters. You took care to make a cool fast forward effect to make the video more enjoyable to watch for your viewers.
You didn't play my game, you made love to her XD

ohhh this is so good!!! i was so scared!
it's super laggy at the end, but really good!
Thank you so much chlo(e x 8) ;-D
Really sorry for the problems you encountered. This is my very first game and I still have a lot to learn before making a new one.
Thanks again chloeeeeeeee ! Greetings from France ^^
The game was really interesting and i love the horror aspect of it! its not demanding and very light as well ~ so i hope to see more in the future.
Hell Areku :-)
It always makes me so happy when I see people taking the time to make a video about my game.
Thank you so much ! Greetings from France :-D
i knew it! it is french :D but for real thank you forthe game julien ^ -^
Yes ^^ That's why the validation button in the chest box is in French and the toilets are in a different room XD
Thanks again, that's really nice :-)
Your compliment makes me very happy. Thank you so much MaroPanda :)
I had already watched your lets play :-D. I often go to youtube to see if I find new videos of my game there.

Thank you very much for your feedback and your kindness. You are adorable Shrimpchu!

geez this actually gave me the creeps, the ambiance and game design was very well done! great job!
Thank you so much cath :-D !
I'm glad you liked it.
Greetings from France !
wow I absolutely loved this! the story, the gameplay, the puzzles, the spooks, all top-notch. great job and i hope you make more!
Thank you so much GAB :-)
I plan to make a game again one day. But I don't think it will be a pn'c.
That was great! Thanks for sharing
Thanks to YOU for your comment andy ! :-)
Greetings from France.
Beautiful game, congratulations, I thoroughly enjoyed it !
It makes me happy hudt :-) Thank you so much. I'm glad you liked it.
Julien, I found the game idea very good and very interesting, I wanted to know two things about the game, the first thing is if there will be a mobile version for the game in the Google Play Store, the second thing is if the game will also have on steam.

Currently I have no plans to go any further with this game. It will probably only stay on Itch.io (for the official version. Because I found out that others have posted the game elsewhere).

Your post still makes me want to check how things work on Google Play Store. Thank you :-)
I understand and you're welcome 🥰
actually pretty good
Thank you very much kevin :-)
This was very atmospheric and scary. The story felt very Lovecraftian, and everything, from the graphics to the music was very high quality.
The link with Lovecraft makes me very happy. He's probably the author I've read the most so far.
Thank you very much BGG :-)
