its a really good arg type horror game, it actually unsettled me, but most of the scares are cheap jump scares, which is fine with me! I know your burnt out with the horror game thing, but it is a really good game to be made by only one person! I still am decoding all the lore this has and it has a lot! hope your new game is really good! (after Julian and friends!)
