it is a fun to play short indie game it isvery fun i enjoyed it alot
thanks
thanks!
I like what you did with this, it was fun.
Thank you!
Pros and cons are down below) Check out my vid here (the game is the 2d there) and sub):
Advantages:
1. Well, the game is scary. It is doing it's job creating a creepy ambiance and tension.
2. I love the concept of the game being inside the game, though I would adore if this would be underlined more. Like if you'd get to do something after logging out of your computer at the end.
Disadvantages:
1. I think the enemy appearances lacked nice accompanying sounds. It would be cool to hear something off after "finishing" the game before seeing the enemy. Or some basic jumpscare sounds would do as well.
2. It's a pity that there will be no sequel :( I guess this game feels a bit unfinished, indeed. Like there should be more explanation what has actually happened and why.
Overall:
I enjoyed the game! I think enemy model could still be polished a bit more and the sounds added but the game is good. It's 4/5 for me due to the lack of "final touches". I am exited to see your next projects!
Hope my feedback was useful!
Thank you for the feedback! I too am disappointed about the sequel, but some time in the future i might start developing it again. I will be making other short horror games every now and then though. I plan for start.exe 2 to not be so short though (if i make it) im imagining it to be maybe 10-30 minutes (since their will be chases and hiding (: )
Sounds exciting!
Well unity fricked up the sequel so its not going to be finished sorry. I will make future games, but i am going to take a break from game dev for a while first. Then i will continue to make short little fun games

this game really spooked me out i have to try again 2 more times
lol thank you for playing!
please make a 32 bit win for it plz
i just uploaded the 32 bit version now
thanks that was nice
no problem
ill give ya this i got a little spoked in the basement tho nothing happened but i see what you were going for… maybe if you put more detail on the… figure? it would have been more scary but overall nice work
Thank you for the feedback, ill take it into consideration while making the sequel
your welcome… i am gonna try to learn how to make a game cuz i cant code… well i can just idk how
cool! I can recommend some youtube channels to learn game development: Jimmy Vegas, Brackeys, Awesome Tuts
Jimmy vegas and brackeys are more focused on unity, Awesome tuts has multiple game engines like unity, unreal, game maker, and godot
o ok thanks i will look into it cant wait for the sequal :)
also do u have any tips about like making games
this was a good game only problem is i never got scared at any point and was left wanting more from this but it was great for a short horror game
Thanks! The sequel will be much longer and much better made
I cant wait for next part, meanwhile I recorded game.
thanks!
For a short horror game the pacing was very good
thank you!
Nice Concept! A game Inside Game! It is pretty spooky but the end is a lil bit funny for me. Anyways, Thank you for sharing us your game!
p.s game starts at 0:21
thanks for playing! Glad you liked it
I loved this game I just want more story but good job!
Thanks! im gonna create another game that is a sequel to this one, and it will be much longer and more detailed
I'm gonna stay tuned to that I loved it I got scared when that dude was at the door
Awesome! im gonna be learning way more about game dev to ensure quality on the next game, so it may take a while to release

a comment in the comment section
lol
good game
Thank you
Honestly, great job. I created a game a lot like this (I didn’t copy), but for some reason it didn’t do very well. I enjoyed playing this. The game I made is called The Arcade, but it isn’t anything worth looking at.
Anyways, great job.
Thanks! Ill check your game out!
Such A nice game
thanks
I enjoyed my time with this game! The shadow guy is pretty creepy before you start seeing him lol Starts at 7:56!
Thanks
This was a pretty good game although i kinda wish the character was a bit faster but still good keep it up
Thanks
this game is awesome, though it could be a little longer, but overall awesome game! played it in my youtube video: 3 scary games
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
I really wish this was longer! Loved the overall style, but the ending was very abrupt! I'd love to see more added to this, or another game with a similar style!
Thanks for playing! I am planning to make another game with the same style, just much longer, with better gameplay mechanics and better graphics.
It's pretty good. I do think it was a little short but was overall satisfying.
Thanks!
I played this in my YouTube video and let me tell you: it was pretty good! The pixelated environment as well as the abstract enemy made it a pretty terrifying experience to play through! Although, it was a little too short and my favorite segment was the basement! That felt like it would've scared the bejeezus out of me had there been a little more spook to it. Other than that, awesome game! Check out my reaction in my video
(starts at 9:02)
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it
Interesting game :)
Thanks!
