Note:  In the web version, the creature's audio is a bit buggy.  I recommend playing the downloadable version if you're able to.

You are stuck in a house with a creature.  You must collect keys around the house to unlock different rooms and, eventually, escape.  Your sanity goes down if your flashlight is off.  You can restore your sanity by standing under a light.  You can turn on lights by interacting with nearby light switches.  However, the creature is alerted when you switch and leave on a light.  Note, you must hold the correct key while interacting with a locked door to unlock it.

Controls:

wasd - move

mouse - look around

right click - toggle flashlight

e - interact with doors or switch, and collect items.

1-9 or the scroll wheel - cycle through your items


Note:  The title screen has a secret if you wait after beating the game, good luck.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this game. It's really creepy and unsettling! One thing I do wish was changed was is the fact that the monster's hitbox is really tiny. I was able to walk practically through them and not die at times. Other than that, it's a really unsettling game with some pretty fun gameplay!
