Thank you for playing and for the thorough review! Actually, there’s an event somewhere around the second task, when the creature is peeking out from inside the container, you might have heard scratching noises, but didn’t look out the window when it happened. And yeah, I had a vision for those kinds of scares, especially the one with the creature in the woods, but at the time I hadn’t figured out a way to make it impactful enough. And about the jumpscare, yeah, I know, I know, I just had to put one in :)
honestly i get that. Even 80 days later, I've found myself returning to your game for a replay. Even if there are a couple of quirks, its still one of the most memorable indie horrors I've played and every aspect of the game is done very well. I only critique because I see potential, so I hope I never dissuaded or upset you with my initial comment. Keep making amazing projects!!
