💀Who's behind this? You're trapped... alone in the school bathroom, with nothing but a dying flashlight. __The only way out is to find the keys.__ But it's in here with you. Let it catch you three times, and your story ends here.

🖤Heed this: Move silently when you feel its presence. Never shine the light directly upon it—you do not want to see what it looks like. And beware... the flashlight attracts attention. Overuse it, and you'll regret it.

🌌Don't hold back your screams. Fight the darkness. Do not go gentle into that good night......

😈__NEW TIPS:Find the next key and open the next door until you find the key to the EXIT!Just three keys!__😈

A scary game. The visuals and sounds is pretty good. I have sadly no idea where to go or what to do.

tinykidtoo6 Oct 2025, 19:03

This was spooky! The soundscape is certainly scary. I kept turning around to see who was breathing down my neck. I am not quite sure why my character is eating cookies or where to go to get out. I was too scared.

wow. yeah, wait.. i’ll play this in daylight. lol! great sound and level design!

Adrien Tremblay7 Oct 2025, 02:28

The sound design is great. Very spooky. Overall spooky vibe. Im not a fan of the input delay though or maybe this is an issue with my machine or the web build. Also the vibe is quite spooky but there are random nonsensical/comedic elements like the giant floating cookies and the random picture of a goofy baby on the wall? Kind of clashes for me.

Great game. The starting area is ideal to get a hang of the controls. I love how the flashlight "snaps" to random positions, really gives a feel that the main character is stressed out. Actually I'd love to know how you implemented that if you don't mind sharing, I'm quite curious. It felt quite immersive, thanks to both good graphics and good audio. I did not quite understand how to beat the monsters, I would run and close myself into a room and they would still get to me. But it still made for quite a nice experience, great work

coffeeflyauthor7 Oct 2025, 04:10

you can ask me anything about game in my email! Hope you guys can have fun!

nexyisan7 Oct 2025, 08:04

The atmosphere was cool.

Ira Baciu7 Oct 2025, 08:09

Really scary! I did not expect a monster right at the beginning

d-demetori7 Oct 2025, 08:13

A bit hard to follow what is going on with cookies and stuff, cool vibes!

DeadCode7 Oct 2025, 08:17

The toilet stall jumpscare got me good right from the begining!

gwhyang7 Oct 2025, 09:12

The game has a pretty spooky atmosphere.
And quit the game when my first seeing a dead on tolite. It takes me a few minutes to adjust. It doesn't means I don't like the game. Instead, I think the game it enough scary for a horror game😋

Semenchk7 Oct 2025, 11:29

Delayed control. The doors won't open. Maybe it's necessary, but it's not very pleasant to play. The graphics are nice, which is worth the reflections on the floor. It's not too bad.

Iriska7 Oct 2025, 13:15

GOOD JOB GUYS. I have to admit that it was really scary and you did a good job with the atmosphere of the game. But the controls are a bit awkward.. And it's not really clear what the point of the cookies is though.. They don't seem to fit the theme of the game very well...Anyway, great job! :purple_heart::star::purple_heart:

Flying Dog Fish7 Oct 2025, 14:02

That's a really nice monster, of course I wanted to see it and shine my light on it to see it better. Anyway, a nice horror game you got there. The cookies were jummy.

Phobos7 Oct 2025, 19:27

Pretty scary game with a good ambiance and good sounds, but I got lost on what I needed to do and don't really understand why I need to it cookie. The big problem is the control, there is a big latence on the movement (maybe due to the web build) and the mouse control feels off. And sometimes I knock the flying cookie on the ground and it gets even harder to collect them.
Overall a good scary game, but needs refinment on the control and the user experience.

skale8 Oct 2025, 09:09

I want cookies now! Great game

Porcupine Sashimi8 Oct 2025, 09:23

Holy shit that was scary!!! Great audio and visual design, and I really liked how the flashlight was implemented. Lighting overall was super on point. Not sure if the cookies really fit the vibe, though.

Alex O8 Oct 2025, 10:05

Love the visuals, but in my personal expirience the game was really bugged and it ruined the overall impression. When I pressed S to move backwards the game just continued walking for me even when I didn't hold S anymore. Also the camera sensitivity was really bad and uncomfortable. But the atmosphere was nice

koroleva olya8 Oct 2025, 14:10

I liked the music and the cool idea with the flashlight. The animations were very nice, as were the stylized textures. I would have made the scares more intense.

roumo10258 Oct 2025, 15:42

嘻嘻恐怖拉满！

xigua8 Oct 2025, 15:46

I'm a bit scared to play, but I have to say the trailer is really cool!

Ciphereo9 Oct 2025, 06:45

The atmosphere is particularly wonderful! There are some very interesting pictures. Haha!

licorin9 Oct 2025, 09:19

The game is very cool, and sometimes a little scary, but the trailer is very cool

SylviaChord9 Oct 2025, 12:02

@licorin Yeah, I worked on the sound and video for this. I'm a massive fan of Visage—it's one of the best horror games out there.

SylviaChord9 Oct 2025, 12:26

@koroleva-olya I got to play some of your games. You've got this!

licorin9 Oct 2025, 14:40

@sylviachord im a student game designer at university, i have a project for a December to make, i want to make in unreal engine, reference is Detroit, yeah my game is not so well optimized, because i don't love to code top down, but platformer and all 3d, im good at it, and also i worked for 3 years in unreal engine, i have experience, i think we can creat a game, maybe ideia, story, sound and other, my discord @licorin

SylviaChord9 Oct 2025, 15:07

@licorin done on discord, my discord is the same name

GreenPig10 Oct 2025, 09:27

Wow, a horror game in 3 days is amazing. I should have worn headphones, because the jump scares didn't really work, but the monster guy thingy got me good. Well done!

dumchevdev10 Oct 2025, 12:46

This is a very atmospheric horror game, well done!

Nnnnneeeedddd10 Oct 2025, 17:18

Pretty scary, my gf is here, so was trying to be cool :smile:

Is there an endgame? I didn't know what to do after the baby was on the wall.

Awesome jam game, thanks for making!

coffeeflyauthor10 Oct 2025, 17:38

@nnnnneeeedddd Search rooms and find keys!After key of bathroom,there are just two keys you need to find and you can escape this school!you can watch the video at the end of profile.Thank for playing!

blobo10 Oct 2025, 19:05

I think the web build might be a bit broken. The controls were super unresponsive, and my mouse cursor kept endlessly scrolling up. But perhaps that adds the the horror vibes, I don't know.

I recorded myself playing to provide extra feedback. It's quite possible these issues are only on my end?

EDIT: I had a controller connected! That must be why the mouse was always scrolling up. Ahhhhhhhh.

bube11 Oct 2025, 00:59

@100th-coin It seems that this issue is caused by incorrect mouse position detection in the page's small window. Clicking the full-screen button in the upper right corner should resolve this problem.

Liu Qinying11 Oct 2025, 03:45

To make it so scary in such a short time, I like its mechanism and handling

Amiuke11 Oct 2025, 13:24

好玩！恐游爱好者狂喜。音效很厉害很有代入感！完成度也很高。奶龙笑死我了
