Wonderful little horror game! We had a lot of fun playing it. Great work.
Just some lady out for her nightly walk.
I ended up giving up because the gameplay mechanics are ridiculously hard in an unfair way.
I won't lie, you got me in the ending... I totally didn't expect that we would just kill her instead of... I dunno, exorcising her? This was great though! I wrote a review a few days ago with some feedback. I hope to see more from you in this style, horror or not. :D
This was a nice short game! I love grandma xD
played on web. never saw the witch then she was just dead after finding 5 items. maybe bugged?
A great short horror game with some good spooky/tense moments.

não sei oq falarWhat a fun little romp. I do so love the graphical style.
I feel like a little bit of context as to how exactly the "ritual" is performed rather than a smash cut to the result would be nice, as well as a little bit more of an explanation of how the Witch catching you actually works, but for a quick spook, this is awesomely stylish. Good work!
I like the games where you can defeat the monster. Very well made, great job!
This game deserves more attention ! I very much enjoyed my whole experience. I wont spoil anything lol Keep up the good work, and thank you for sharing !! :)
That's very kind of you to say! Thanks for sharing :]
Included this in my 3 random horror game video!
Short but not too shabby especially for being made for a gamejam. Made a video on it.
The game is very nice i cant lie i wish it was longer but i really felt scared when the ghost was following me great job!
That's amazing, Glad that Granny didn't overreacted. Rly liked it even ps1 vertex filter. Pretty solid, like a diamond
glad you enjoyed it!
had so much fun :D
Creepy. That first time she appeared was super unsettling xD
It was fun!
Thanks for playing!
Spooky, short, but well done. Had me on edge quite a bit. Keep up the good work!
Loved the playthrough. Glad we could deliver some thrill but sorry we couldn't deliver a real scare 😅 you played it too well!
Simple, engaging, just plain spooky - solid game!
For a game jam, making something with no bugs, no issues, stellar atmosphere and truly intense sequences - must be a lot of work. I loved this. Definitely one of my favorite entries.
Best of luck with the game jam!
Loved watching your playthrough! We appreciate your praise and sharing the video.
Happy to hear you enjoyed our game 😊
hey, i just watched the video and it was really good and you do actually give solid opinions and feedback on games, I was wondering if you are interested in playing my new game too?
Game is so good and fun nice job :)
The game feels highly polished and well-finished. The art style is cohesive, and the atmosphere of t he scene is very strong. The sound design elevates the experience even further.
excellent game
Thanks for playing!
