I'm not much of a horror game fan, but this one is well-balanced. The atmosphere is well-crafted and the characters are genuinely likable. So I'm hoping for more Xander and Clay stories))
Aww thank you sm!!!
How do you read the tag?
I’m glad I finally got around to playing this! I didn’t really read the tags beforehand so the BL elements came as a (pleasant) surprise lol. And it’s a small detail but I love how the credits doodles are different with each ending. Overall I think this has a lot of charm and cool classic horror vibes!
On another note I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the first and last ending CGs in the gallery xd
Aww thank you!!! Im so glad you played and enjoyed it, its a bit long so thank you for sticking with it till the end! And were you able to get all the endings? It should unlock after the credits roll! if you're in browser it may be that as well! But I'll go over it and see if there's a problem with the code, I'm sorry about that 😭❤️
I ended up getting them!! Clay’s POV was a great addition and I’m actually happy I got the good ending last because I think it was the perfect way to close out the story. I’d love to see more of Xander/Clay & Amber, they’re so cute together <33
AWWW I'm so glad!! We're planning some spin offs relating to clays POV and some secret endings since we're still adding some minor changes!!! I'm glad you liked them so much <3333
