FAQ:

1. Why is the PC version paid?

Because I need to pay the bills (in the future).

2. Why is the Android Version free then?

ADS.

3. Will the game be released on other platforms such as Steam, Google Play Store and Apple App Store?

It really depends on its performance here at itch.io, but I do wish to release them there one day, at the very least on Google Play Store.

4. Will the game be updated regularly?

I don't usually update my games, but since this is my first commercial game, I think I might make an exception.

Developer Comments:

Hello everyone! This is my first commercial game, so go easy on me (laughs).

Anyway, I think the game turned out pretty well for such a short development time (2.5 weeks). That's right, 2.5 weeks! It may seem short, but I really tried my best to complete this game.

It's pretty obvious, but this game is inspired by classic horror arcade games such as Granny and Evil Nun, so fans of these games will probably enjoy it.

I sincerely hope that fans of the horror genre will enjoy what I have developed. Also, all ideas and suggestions are welcome and greatly appreciated!

Tips:

NOTE: Lower game graphics if there are performance issues. (REMEMBER: You can also disable reflections and shadows in-game) (Most shadows are disabled at LOW graphics quality)

1. You can hide in lockers.

2. The enemy can only see its front.

3. You can hear the enemy. (Remember to wear headphones!)

4. The enemy can hear you. (Be careful!)

5. There are 2 escape methods. (For now, at least)

6. "Walk + Crouch" to reach greater heights! (Especially when you can't jump)

7. Remember! You can always try custom difficulty settings! (Yeah, I suck at game balancing)

8. There are objects in objects! Get it? (No? Don't worry, you will, someday...)

9. YOU CAN NOW ENABLE RETRO SONY PS1 / PSX GRAPHICS! (I used to play the original  Sony Playstation back in the day, those were good times alright)

10. Have Fun!
