This was pretty short, but I enjoyed it! I like how it became sci-fi horror. I wasnt sure if the apprentice became an alien or something haha.  I look forward to more games! I unfortunately couldn't tag you in my video! Your game is at 13:17

Thanks so much for playing and featuring our game in your video!Really appreciate the support, and we’ll keep working on more games!

Included this in my 3 random horror game video!
Short but tbh this was pretty solid! Loved the premise and story. Felt like something out of SCP! Only issue I encountered was the game would reset to the other language setting from english. Had to keep relaunching to get it to stay on english. Aside from that, solid. Made a video on it.

Thanks so much for playing and making a video! We’re really glad you enjoyed the premise and story. Also, thanks for reporting the language issue — we’ll look into it and try to fix it in the next update!

I actually enjoyed this story, very nice bite size horror game! 

Thank you! And so sorry about the confusion—we forgot to list 'C to Crouch' in the controls. We've just updated the page to fix this. Thanks for being patient and for the great video! :)

NICE STORY

Great video! Thank you so much for playing and for the support. We're so glad you enjoyed the story! :)

really enjoyed your game!

Thank you so much for playing and for the video! It’s amazing to see our game being shared like this so soon after launch. Our team (MTC_0852) watched your gameplay—we're thrilled you enjoyed the experience! We’re working hard on our next project, so stay tuned. Thanks again for the support!

will be looking forward to your next project!

will be looking forward to your next project!

Haha, so excited you said it twice! Thanks again!See you in the next one! :D

A really well-executed first game from you guys! It was creative (loved the arcade game at the start), creepy, and featured a chase sequence that didn't feel too frantic. Exactly my taste. I hadn't seen a theme park setting like this before, either. Great job! I played without the PSX filter because I wanted to get a proper look at the graphics ;)

Thank you so much for the feedback! It was such an amazing surprise to see that you even recorded a gameplay video. Our whole team watched it, and seeing a player experience our work in such detail is truly the best encouragement we could ask for. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the atmosphere and creativity of the game. We are currently hard at work on our next project.We hope to bring you another surprise when it's ready. Thanks again for your support!

I'm following you guys on itch.io and am really excited to see what you come up with next! :)

Knowing that we have our first follower really motivates the whole team. We're already brainstorming some creepy new ideas for the next one. Thanks for sticking with us—we won't let you down! :)
