Hey man! I loved the game, it was really creepy! I just googled your game, and I thought you'd like too know a youtuber with a good amount of subs did a video playing your game! If I were you, I'd be pretty proud. Great Job!
The game's a nice thought exercise and I enjoyed it. I only wish the 'boss' was a bit more prevalent throughout the game beyond the ending part of the game.
Had a blast with this game! It kept me on edge thinking that something or someone was going to randomly pop out! When I would go back to the entrance and the doggie was looking at a certain direction, it made me so anxious! Love the atmosphere, the graphics, and the puzzles! Nothing too difficult or hard, but fun to find and search for! It brought back memories of being a kid and staying home alone! Fantastic job! Would love to play more games like this!
A really good short game. I always had this fear when I was young so I definitely got scared with the ambiance, you can clearly tell something is going on but the puzzles were great. Hope to see more games from this creator soon! :)
Really nice job. I think you could even do more with the "dad who is the escape room guy". Is the main character tired of his BS, or is he sort of fond of the puzzles, or are they really excited for dad's latest game? (How about mom, how does she feel?) Then there could even be some tension when the danger arises; is this part of the game or not?
Honestly the best thing about this game is Mrs. Burnwood. So often in horror games with a youthful protagonist, adults just don't behave like adults often do - in a protective or supportive manner. Nice to see a character of this sort.
Usually the "haunted PS1" vibe is meant to elicit feelings of dread - like you're playing a cursed game. I think the low fi aspect to it here could be explored a little more. Is this the memory of someone who played a lot of PS1 games? Etc.
Thank you for this thorough feedback! Next time I hope to make a more worked out game and implement more story, feelings and relations! Glad you think so! I tried my best to make the setting, environment and characters relatable and realistic, so that means a lot to me :)! That's an interesting point! Maybe one day I'll make another game in this direction and explore it further :D!! Thank you a lot!! ♥
Hahaha what a wholesome and funny playthrough, thank you so much! Appreciate it :D ♥ There is also a puzzle guide (the .txt file in the download) that explains in detail how each puzzle was supposed to be solved if that's something you'd like to have a look at :)
Oh, good to know! Although, I'm glad I was able to work my way through it on my own, even if it took a while. 😅 You did a good job of rewarding players for being observant. 🙂
Thank you so much!! I'm sorry about the part with the cipher and the POV, I'll gladly take your feedback and keep it in mind for the next time! :) Thank you for playing and sharing, it means a lot! ♥
That was great, I don't even know how you got UE4 to look like that. I really liked the level design, and the consistent art style looked great, very fitting for you game. And even tho your game used quite a few dynamic lights, it ran very well for me on my 4year old AMD system.
I have to check what happens if I don't leave the house.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it!! It's nice to hear it ran smoothly for you!!
And btw the game was done in UE5 actually :D A big help to achieve this look were two shaders and that did the trick (both of course referenced in the credits, if you would like to check them out :))
Loved this game! I love the flow, and I loved the delivery! Excellent job! The pixel art was great, and I loved the multiple endings!My gameplay is below!
Thank you so much for playing!! I'm glad you enjoyed it and it was so fun watching you play it!! :D If you're curios on how to actually solve the puzzles, you can check out the puzzle guide (the link in the .txt document) :) Also thank you for the kind words in the end, appreciate it a lot!! ♥
Hi! I'm sorry you encountered so many bugs ;;; I will immediately have a look at them, fix them and reupload the game in a few hours!! Thank you for letting me know! And also thank you so much for playing, I enjoyed your playthrough a lot, it was so fun to watch, you were extremely sympathetic and I appreciate your kind words about my game!! ♥ (Also appreciate your dedication with the puzzles :) ♥)
Great game, loved the use of codebreaker as a puzzle, it took me back to doing the library puzzles back in school. Puzzles were simple and the notes really help give you a direction to explore. The game did remind me of Fears to Fathom Home Alone, though with the dog in the house alerting you I found it worked a hell of a lot better. Seeing him just facing a direction just makes you wonder what was going on.
Thank you so very much for your kind words!! Fears to Fathom: Home alone, was one of my inspirations haha and I'm glad you managed the puzzles so well! I'm also glad you enjoyed the game overall and liked Kayla so much and that she successfully managed to increase the paranoia factor! I loved your playthrough a lot, super enjoyable! Thank you!! ♥
Thank you very much! I noticed a few bugs during your playthrough and am happy to let you know that they've been fixed and will be updated shortly! I still hope it was an enjoyable experience! Thank you!
Oh what a wonderful ps1 looking game. Loved it. Also the puzzles were nice and sweet. I also really liked that the level design, there was so much to look at. 10/10
Hi! I'm really sorry to hear that, unfortunately I don't know what could cause these issues. It might be an problem with AMD? Everyone that tested it said it worked perfectly fine, though they had all NVIDIA, that's all I could think of causing any problems :(
I really liked the game and found the puzzles smart but not too challenging. The looks of Home were a big highlight! The game ran perfectly on my not so good PC as well. Looking forward to your next creations! :)

Thank you so much!! I’m glad you enjoyed it!! :) ♡
The game's a nice thought exercise and I enjoyed it. I only wish the 'boss' was a bit more prevalent throughout the game beyond the ending part of the game.
Here's my channel for other games I have played. https://www.youtube.com/c/Levont

Amazing!! I normally hate puzzle games but this was so much fun!!
haha glad to hear, thank you! :D
Never experience it as a kid but this just happened recently.
Edit : you might wanna change the name since there's another game called "Home". It could make your game being discover much easier.
Thank you for creating. Now I download and experience the game you made. Thank you!
thank you so much!!
Good game
Thanks!!
Thank you!! :)
Thank you so much!! :)

Thank you so much, glad you liked it!! :D Next time I'll try to implement more of the horror aspect! :)

crashed 2 times and FPS is 8. help?
Hi! I'm really sorry to hear that, unfortunately I don't know what could cause these issues. It might be an problem with AMD? Everyone that tested it said it worked perfectly fine, though they had all NVIDIA, that's all I could think of causing any problems :(
maybe make a game that works, idk. FPS is low and have problems, hope u fix it.
and downvoting my comment? why? idk
I really liked the game and found the puzzles smart but not too challenging. The looks of Home were a big highlight! The game ran perfectly on my not so good PC as well. Looking forward to your next creations! :)
plz help, my PC has AMD Ryzen 5, but game crashes, why? U have what PC friend?
I have a Geforce GTX 1660 and had no problems.. Maybe it‘s a problem for AMD graphic cards?

Thank you so much for your kind words! Appreciate it a lot, glad you enjoyed it!! ♥
