This was insanely good! I was very confused most of the time, but that gave way to excitement! I love the different gameplay elements when picking up the fuses. That adds a lot of variety and a fresh feel to the game. Here's my playthrough:
We had a lot of fun playing this game. Joe was a right wimp, it turns out he's not very good with horror games. Had some critical feedback too on the design, so check it out!
I absolutely loved this game! I do have a couple of minor gripes with it though.
Gameplay:
First, the walking was rather clunky, often forcing me in a straight line when I attempted to turn. The flashlight running animation played when I just held down shift, even without moving. Turning the flashlight on in general was rather annoying, with it staying pointed down and to the left for around a second or so. This animation could be interrupted though if I very slightly sprint, putting it into the sprinting animation which returns to normal quicker.
The "find the exit" minigame was a bit frustrating, considering the amount of dead-ends, and by the time I became good enough at it to avoid the enemy, it lost its scariness.
The parkour minigame was more frustrating than scary. At one point I got stuck on the side of a ledge where it looked like I could step up it, resulting in me falling off.
Scares:
I didn't encounter all the scares, but here are a couple that I did find ineffective.
As mentioned previously, the "find the exit" minigame lost its scariness after a bit, and playing it twice lets you know what to expect.
I found the losing screen at the end of the parkour minigame to be rather bland. Losing in that style of game in general isn't exactly scary, since you know that you're going to lose. The timer in the parkour minigame also took away the sense of urgency present in the other minigames. I think it would be much more frightening if something was chasing you down the tunnel. Something large would really create a sense of claustrophobia in the confines of the cavern. The thing could even move slightly faster than the player, nearly catching up only to be held back by a particularly small section of tunnel that it must burst through, buying the player some extra time.
With those aside, there are many things this game does fantastically.
Gameplay:
The detailed environments help to really increase the immersion. The audio design is amazing, and the story is intriguing.
I especially enjoyed the "close the doors" and "follow the light" minigames. These were incredibly nerve-wracking, and had me more frightened than any other part of the game. These two were extremely well made.
Scares:
Opening my eyes to see the creature outside the window nearly gave me a heart-attack. The anticipation of not knowing what will be there upon opening my eyes seriously helped to set the mood.
The sense of panic from the "close the doors" and "follow the light" minigames was phenomenal. Forcing me to concentrate and observe what happened around me, before jolting into action set me on edge like nothing else.
I will definitely check out the early access on Steam, and look forward to where you will go from here!
Love this game. Didn't get too far though, too many jump scares and I had a heart attack. lol At one point I didn't know if it was the game characters heart or my own that I was hearing pounding. I'll definitely be playing this again, hopefully with a little less panic, and actually survive the night.
Every time i try to install it it say corrupted file unable to launch and i reinstall it and it says it again please help.
this is exctally what it says
An error occurred during installation while extracting (TTFA_demo/TTFA_Demo_Data/level5):dmc_unrar_extract_file_with_callback: error 19: File CRC-32 checksum mismatch
Try to keep the .exe file in the same folder where all the game files are. If it still doesn't work, try to get the free demo that's available on Steam.
This is a beautiful game! Very spooky and a super interesting concept!
I was wondering if the poster from the lab that says "loose lips spit sekrits" is for sale anywhere. As soon as I saw it I really wanted to purchase it.
This is a wonderful game and is extremely well created.
Thank you for the kind words! Unfortunately that "loose lips spit sekrits" poster is not for sale anywhere... If the game does really well, we might do some cool merch for it and include that poster ;)))
Thank you for the video. We're sorry that you felt slightly disappointed with the new demo. We promised this demo in May, since the update for the last demo was canceled because the files on our end got corrupted. Still, this demo is WAY better than the update that would've come out in May. The early access won't be the same s$%@ though :))))
I downloaded the game but there was a problem it was not working so I deleted it but I could not reinstall it because there was no more Download button please help me
Great job! The graphics, atmosphere and overall game was amazing. Those jumpscares were just genius, they really got me. I actually made a video playing this amazing game with hilarious reactions. I hope you enjoy. Keep the good work dude! I can't wait for the full release.
My wife and I are extremely intrigued! My only only concern was the pacing of the dream sequence? The concept was too much like Slender in my opinion and dragged on a bit. But other then that, it was fantastic! I hope to see more from this game!
Awesome video! More is coming, both for the falling asleep sequence and the dream sequences. Hopefully, you'll get to experience a few unexpected surprises :)))
i had to wait 6 hours for it to load get it on steam it so much better but yeah itch.io can be filled with crappy and ripp off games and its just annoying anyway who made itch.io always wondered and thats it
Most players don't have this issue, but interestingly enough, you're not the first who's having that issue. Honestly, we have no idea what's causing it. Maybe try to get the game from Steam? Also, trying out a different .rar uncompressing software might fix the issue.
Maybe If You Guys Add One Of The Monsters Horns Or Make A New Monsters That Appears Under The Bed That Would Be Insane! You Have To Check Under The Bed With A Key Binding And The Lamp Must Be On While You're Checking Under The Bed Or The Monster Will Jumpscare You Immeadetly And The Stress Level Will Be Half Way Filled Up.Maybe The Other Nights Should Be Different Like New Enemies New Stuff EveryNight I Hope That Would Be Helpfull! :)

Thank you Epicghost, very cool! :D
Enjoy
Every thing I try to open the file in doesn't work and i don't have any money to buy the game on steam what should i do?
Try to keep the .exe file in the same folder where all the game files are. If it still doesn't work, try to get the free demo that's available on Steam.
when i try to open the game its says that its not ready and closes
How about now?
por que se cierra arreglenlo por favor
Esperemos que a principios de febrero esté en funcionamiento. :P
When i try to download the game it says it isn't done yet and then closes the game.
same for me
Interesting... Hopefully in early Febuary it will be operational.
Hopefully it will be fixed before the 14th also just so you know the demo on steam did the same to me
We'll definetely try to make a build for Macs. It might be tricky since Apple doesn't like people getting apps outside from their app store :P
This is a beautiful game! Very spooky and a super interesting concept!
I was wondering if the poster from the lab that says "loose lips spit sekrits" is for sale anywhere. As soon as I saw it I really wanted to purchase it.
This is a wonderful game and is extremely well created.
Thank you for the kind words! Unfortunately that "loose lips spit sekrits" poster is not for sale anywhere... If the game does really well, we might do some cool merch for it and include that poster ;)))
how about one that says a new horror game that has a cool idea to it
I played the game today and I was wondering the same! I would love that poster!
Nightmare fuel. Maybe I’m just a chicken, but this game was REALLY SCARY!

SPOOOOOOOOOOOPY
Spooky was So Last Year*Ahem*Great job! The graphics, atmosphere and overall game was amazing. Those jumpscares were just genius, they really got me. I actually made a video playing this amazing game with hilarious reactions. I hope you enjoy. Keep the good work dude! I can't wait for the full release.
Cool video! Try to fall asleep to experience the second part of the demo ;)
My wife and I are extremely intrigued! My only only concern was the pacing of the dream sequence? The concept was too much like Slender in my opinion and dragged on a bit. But other then that, it was fantastic! I hope to see more from this game!

I downloaded this game so many times but the rar file is corrupt why ???? any fix?

Great ideas and suggestions! Someone else will come along in the full version of the game ;)
