Hey! Loved the game. Definitely gives you a lo-fi PT vibe but I still felt like it was it's own thing as well. Couple of the scares definitely got me too!
Loved the starting 'menu,' loved the gameplay and how things change and the stuff you have to find to progress and how those stuff correspond to the radio and TV. The overall vibe and environment was pretty spooky and really well done. And the subtle scares like the shadow of the mannequin and even their moving heads as shadows and; I absolutely lowed.
I might have missed something, but I only wished that the story that you hear of the deaths of people were connected and made sense? My guess is that the person the player plays did it all, if not, I missed something and that's my bad.
But yeah, it was a really well made psychological horror game and had so much fun playing it!
Great game! I had fun playing and recording it. I didn't get the good ending, I think? I got 6 out of 7 secrets, so I probably missed the true ending. I couldn't find the last one, lol. I really liked the concept, design, and overall gameplay is solid.
Good stuff, looking forward to more projects!
Please check out the video (Game starts at 4:02) and my channel: VladMan. Thank you!
This was a both scary and fun experience. The scares are not overwhelming and too intense, but the atmosphere deters you from progressing, though there is only one way out of this mess; moving forward. I truly applaud that, it is a hard balance to obtain in a horror game. And then there are the secrets! I whish more games would use this method of motivating the player to explore and investigate, it is amazing! Nothing much to add or change, the game is perfect in its own right. I usually recommend adding a chase sequence, but this game does not seem all too compatible with such sequences, so no need for it.
I myself had to play it twice to collect and find all the secrets and endings, but it never really got tedious doing so, as they are not too hard to find. Overall the game is a clear 5/5. Great work!
Pros and cons are down below) Check my vid out here (likes and subs are highly appreciated)):
Advantages:
1. The game is so spooky! Well done! I enjoyed every scare the game had and it surprised me a lot. I feel like even if the concept of "going into the same room that changes a bit" isn't new, you managed to make the game look fresh nonetheless. Very cool!
2. The storytelling is amazing. I love how you give hints to the player but it's up to them to decide what has actually happened.
3. The secrets! Yay! The fact that this game had secrets hidden everywhere made me replay the game. That means that you did a nice job of making the player want to know more and try again. Moreover, the secrets were kind of cool. And the fact that there are different endings is also awesome. (I put it here because I feel that you need to collect secrets to get the other ending but I might be wrong and it might have been a total coincidence for me))
Disadvantages:
1. The lack of background music! Any non-intrusive music would be better than the lack of music. I know that it's kinda hard to choose fitting music but I feel that it's still a "must-have". If you intentionally made the game silent then you could add the "sound of silence" - a wind behind the window or neighbors walking upstairs or the floor creaking to make the ambiance stronger. Or even better - make the radio play a non-intrusive non-copyrighted song that can be turned off if the player wants to experience the game in total silence.
2. The face in the darkness. It is an incredible spook, don't get me wrong. But it doesn't fit the game whatsoever. I guess the style of it reminded me of some creepypastas and stuff like that and it felt completely out of place. I would suggest replacing it with something more subtle, not so "in your face". Here's my suggestion that might inspire you: make the player go inside a dark room, close the door behind them so they will stay in (almost) complete darkness, then make the face (normal-sized face) appear (maybe with a sound cue to attract palyer's attention), and after they approach it, then continue with your sequence. That way players would have no chance of missing this great spook but it wouldn't fall out of the whole picture at the same time being too bright and distorted.
Overall:
I rate this game 4.6 fire axes out of 5 (officially 5 in the rate section). This is an incredible game with great spooks. It's fun to replay and to investigate more thoroughly. But it could be so much better if some minor details would get polished. Can't wait to see more from you! Stay awesome, devs!
Hope my feedback was useful!
*btw played your game called Lights out before and I wanted to say that this game is so much better! It's very cool to see you grow as (a) developer(s)!
You got me good with the closet one, I don't even understand what was so scary about that part but t got me good. I loved the game and the little story bits that are given to the player, little bits that help one understand who you are, and what you do :D
This game is a nice sequel to Paralyzis. Very creepy and the shadows really got to me. Although I didn't find the 7th secret, I did get both endings. Great game JN Squared!

Very unique and very creepy, great game dev thanks for sharing :)
if you get all the secrets will you see how the both games connect? And Video starts at 0:58
This game looks really well made I went all the way through and got all the secrets and I tried to not get scared but again it scared me so good job 😂

I love the game it was very good and I really like the retro style.
Last game I played. Not bad
I myself had to play it twice to collect and find all the secrets and endings, but it never really got tedious doing so, as they are not too hard to find. Overall the game is a clear 5/5. Great work!

Got the bad ending, just like my real life.
Nice game :)

I always love your work! I tried my best to find all the secrets and find who stole my coat from my closest! Great work!
I love this game the look, feel, and pacing of it is amazing. A few decent scares and if you're curious enough one that will get you for sure.
this game had me confused like I was in paralysis great job I had fun
I really enjoyed how it looked and the atmosphere felt very bated - good job!
I got the bad ending first try, then found the bear on my second - I missed one secret, but I have no idea where to look!
This was super fun to play.! I didn't realize you were the same dev who made Parayzis! I wish I would have found all the secrets though. Well done!
Found All The Secrets! Great Game As Usual. Love your Games.

Pretty cool and a great scary experience. Good quality game, keep up the good work!
Very interesting game. I remember playing paralysis. Keep up the good work.
btw if you are interested, here is video:
loved this please check out my play through below x
PT Vibes all over!! Also these cheap scares made me "mad"! XD Although good, there's plenty of room for plot improvements!
Pretty cool. Nice progression of creepiness.
This is not a bad for a short horror game. I really like that it is like P. T. Scary but not too much. Nice one.
WE COULDNT SAVE THEM ALL
An interesting game. It has a good atmosphere.
Great experience! Got spooked a few times and the story behind it was very interesting! Here's my little playthrough (Polish language) Cheers!
COOL GAME, KEEP IT GOING BROTHER!
Interested in that good ending tho but at least had a lot of fun with the ghosts hehe. You can see my gameplay here! THANKS, SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
This game is a nice sequel to Paralyzis. Very creepy and the shadows really got to me. Although I didn't find the 7th secret, I did get both endings. Great game JN Squared!
Very well done! Love these kinds of horror games! Also the tie in with the other game(s) was a nice touch!
I really love the games you make! I played Paralyzis too and had a blast. I was able to get both endings and all secrets in this one!
awesome game! so good spooks
Excellent game. Really creepy. I loved all of it including the opening interactive menu and control information.
