This was very unsettling, you created some brilliant atmosphere here and I loved how slow-burn the scares were. The moment when the lights went off was very well-done. Also it was pleasantly suprising to have control over most of what you type, it was a nice touch and made the few moments when something different to what you typed much creepier (especially when my name came up). Does make me wonder how much it can react to what you type.
Slight Spoiler: The final scare did loose some of the tension by having the figure run at you, personally I think if it just went black when you saw the figure that would have kept the unease going (especially because the text afterwards was still very creepy) but that might just be a personal preference. It didn't take away from how effective the game was overall and I'm really glad I gave it a go.
I screamed lol
this was an EXCELLENT experience! it made me feel dread and even spooked me a bit. the environment was good, too. really neat concept for a game, kudos!
had me on edge when the lights turned off lol good game
/editI love this game and I would like to volunteer to translate that game into Turkish so that my Turkish friends can play that game. How can I contact you?
Thank you for playing and your interest in that game. Unfortunately I will not continue working on that game.
I understand. Let me know if you want me to translate any of your other games or any of your future games...
I answered the questions so "well"... oh yeah...
Hey, tried to open this on my apple Macbook and said 'the file was damaged' any fix? (And yes, I used the apple version)
Sorry to hear that. I develop under linux and have no capabilities to test on mac systems.
Strangely enough I have 700+ mac downloads and no one brought it up. Do you have an ARM processor?
I got the sane error. The help text gave this:
The app has been modified or damaged
The app has been modified, and its code does not match the original signed code. The app may be broken or corrupted, or it may have been tampered with. If you think that an app has been damaged or tampered with, you should delete it by dragging it to the Trash.
Some apps and tools, such as AppleScript or JavaScript applications and some legacy tools, modify themselves after signing. These types of apps cannot be opened unless you override the security settings on your Mac. See Open an app by overriding security settings.

I have a question,can you download on chromebook?And how do you play?
As das as I am aware of Chromebooks are Linux based. So you could try the Linux version.
the most creepy part is that the starting screen has "The death of Talos". I'm from the city where the Greek Pot with that painting was found.
Wow, that's amazing that you recognize it. I tried to tell a story about AI and responsibility here. Did you also have a look into the Devlog after finishing the game? :)
hello, is this game actually rated m? i just need to know lol
yes, but no. I rated it myself. :P
i see! ok!
I tried to troll the test but i got out trolled lol Yooo! i loved your game man.
Thanks for recording. I like the fact that everyone is ignoring the non-disclosure agreement. ;P
lol sorry about ignoring the non-disclosure agreement :D, but on a serious note the game was awesome and thank you for watching the video no one really watches my content so thank you!
Sorry for this. It seems that the Mac version is not signed. A workaround for this one can be found here: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/48076#issuecomment-824947090
Basically the following command:
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine AppName.app
it keeps saying the file is corrupted or something and i can't open it on macbook
:((((
HOW DID IT KNOW MY NAME D:
by your computer username
i left when i saw some black dude looking at me
I love this style and genre of gameplay, Really kept the creepy uneasy feeling going.. Great Job
I loved this, the concept is deceptively simple but just perfect for a short experience because you want to find out who's the AI, the pacing was great and you really know when and how to be spooky, this was a joy to play and now I have to look if you have other cool horror games that I can play.
Thanks for playing my game. :) And I have the strange feeling that you can speak German. :P
It's the bane of my existence that I do :D
Linux version isn't working :(
Strange. I tested and developed it on a Linux machine. Can you send me the Exception? You can find my Discord name on my profile.
Alright, sent a friend request, i'm Aly
Interesting game with a fun twist. The keyboard sounds made it hard to hear some of the creepy sounds happening around me but I could still pick up on it a bit. Thanks for posting!
It's really interesting and it taught me a little bit about the actual test itself. Great job there.

11:52. Best moment. :D Thanks for playing my game!
An interesting take on the survey horror genre, a bit creepy, and the staff provided everything I asked for.
Thank you so much for making a video about my game. I really enjoyed it! :)
Gave it a Let's Play, a nice short horror game :)
This is a cool game. The atmosphere was awesome. I was constantly looking over my shoulder! Loved the PS1 aesthetics.
