A game about violence in the household and how it affects a family.

Long:

Game Jam project in which we wanted to explore horror style designs, the game is about violence in the household and how it affects a family.

You play as a kid who can't remember the confusing last days, as you wake up, you suddenly get the urge to find someone and try to "save them" all the while you're being stalked by a strange presence.

Concept wise we wanted to recreate the kind of monster that you would find in a Silent hill game, or some monsters in the Stephen King books, which are entities that represent a part of the protagonist's personality, repressions or feelings towards a traumatic experience they had in their lives.

That's why inside the game the story could be a little confusing, and some people might be completely lost, and what we try to achieve with this is to get people to make their own interpretations of the story.

Un niño despierta en su casa pero no recuerda nada, es entonces que empieza a explorar su casa y se encuentra con un monstruo que lo está persiguiendo, y la única manera en la que lo puede detener momentáneamente es viendo su reflejo en el espejo, después de poco tiempo descubre la terrible verdad

Install instructions

Everything's pretty simple, WASD to move, spacebar to do stuff, and you do need a mouse to move through the menus.

Even though i'ts a short game we couldn't optimize it in time, that's why it will only run well in above average PCs

-(GTX 600 ~)

-8gb RAM
