Update: I made a few updates to this game. Check out the devlog for details. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

This game is a submission for Brackeys Game Jam 2024.1

I've always wanted to try making a horror game, but it seems like I don't have the time to implement the horror part of the game. I did plan a few events to build up the spooky feeling, but I have to omit it in order to submit this game on time. 

But I still hope that you can enjoy my game. Please leave me comments on what I can do to improve my game.  I might update this game later. 

I would recommend to play the Windows build. 

About the Game

Plagued by recurring dreams of a mysterious house, the protagonist is drawn to an eerily similar one in the waking world. Being a curious creature, she went to explore the house and stood before the same door in her dream. Will the orange door hold the key to unlocking the truth behind her dreams or is it the horrors that might await her?

Good stuff.. love the creepy vibes! :)

would love to see more of this, the atmosphere is very cool and the story is intriguing. 

subtitles or a warning that you need sound to really "get" the ending would have been nice. i'm deaf so... didn't realize anything happened there until i watched a playthrough with closed captions. 

CURIOSITY: Una serie de sueños recurrentes sobre una casa y una puerta naranja llevan a la protagonista a buscar hasta encontrar la misma casa con la misma puerta en la vida real, pero algo la estaba atrayendo hasta allí intencionadamente... Muchas gracias por el juego, saludos!!!

Awesome work!

This was a nice, short, fun little horror game. It controlled well, it has a nice spooky atmosphere, a nice little puzzle to solve, and it didn't use needless jumpscares. Excellent work, keep it up, and can't wait to see what you make next!

Short but cool, effective and good taste to horror. I works for me. First one. Thanks to share and I following you to keep an eye in other projects. I hope you have much more success.

short but very cool!  love the "woods" assets !  can u make a game in the "woods" setting ? ^^

Super simple game, I love it


Not bad at all! Honestly, for the size of the location and scope of the current project, not having the horror element implemented was likely a benefit. It made the ending a bit more impactful as a result. I think if you were to pick this project back up, add a few more puzzles and have a larger area to work in then you'd really be cooking up a genuinely good title.

Really great game! well done keep it up!

Just a superb mix of puzzle solving and ambiguity, liked a game a lot! 

I didn't expect much from the beginning, but the story, the ambience, the sound design, everything was impactful and immersive. Great job! 

Best of luck with the game jam.

For a first game, not bad at all

I didn't hear nothing during the gameplay, maybe some kind of music could create the right "mood" for the game

Maybe in the future you could update the game later

I like the psx style horror:) just throw serial killer in the game

Great idea, I think that would be really cool
