A downloadable game for Windows

Story:

Stacey's husband is away for a while for work, what could possibly go wrong? While doing tasks around the house she occasionally notices some strange things, she constantly feels like someone is watching her.

About me and the game:

In this game we play as a young girl Stacy, left home alone for a few days because her husband has gone to work. While doing small chores around the house and even just buying groceries at the store, it seems to her that someone is always watching her...

I'm an aspiring game developer, and so far this is my first full-fledged project, prototyped from the little game "AFTER ACCIDENT" (link below). If you like this game, feel free to post a comment with suggestions for future projects (I read everything)

This type of horror genre, the home alone ones, will never go out of style.
It can happen to anyone, anytime... maybe tonight... so lock the doors always, and sleep tight!
It's the third game in my video.

Enjoyed your game. Multiple endings were good, never knew what to expect.  It would have been absolutely terrifying for real!!

i really loved this game i knew i heard something from under that bed lol. it scared the fuck out of me.

I really enjoyed this game, the jumpscare was great, and I had a lot of fun while looking for the milk—it was just elusive! The idea of the game is very interesting and frightening! The tension was off the charts!

But when THE BEHOLDER 2 ?

? ? ?

I found the shopping part difficult as the items were extremely difficult to find. However, multiple endings made the game feel like a fun achievement.

He's under the bed lmao

i am downloading it

Why was that dude under my bed lol. This was overall a good game. Keep up the good work

😊👍

This Was The Third Game I Played And It Scared Me Good. Awesome Work

That's some creepy ass stuff my boy, nice job! 

Nice👌

Pretty solid horror game, wish it had more creepy factor but for what it is I enjoyed it!

Really enjoyed playing the game, although the beginning, looking for the items at the store was a mission, everything was blending in so well and was hard to detect, took me more than 10 mins looking for all items (something that can be improved for sure) other than that everything else was a fun experience 

Hello, I played this game, and I liked it. Although there were certain thing which can be worked on imo, for example: the movement feels very janky, and a checkpoint or two would be neat as well, and lastly the grocery part felt very unreasonable.

Took me half an hour to find the milk, The starting took me so long (skill issue), The House's part was AMAZING, The dark and damp atmosphere carried the whole killer sequence, I also didn't expect a man being UNDER my bed, 10/10 Gameplay + Story, Seeing that this was your first game shocked me, I cant wait for the next games, Keep it up man

Wow, was that a great game! The jumpscares got me every time, so fun to play. The creepiness fully shined through and I enjoy every second of that in these types horror games. For your first game? Impressive! I can fully see the effort you put into making the game, 100% thought it was amazing!

took me an embarrassingly long time to find the milk. Kinda makes me feel like my dad

Great the dude under the bed scared tf out of me 🤣🤣

ur game broke my pc wtf are u puttin in ur code? booted it up and now im having major issues. if u gave me a virus i will be billing you for a new pc 100% 

100%

Pretty fun to play despite my unbelievable struggle with the groceries (seriously, why did it have to in a specific order?). The part where the player eats the pizza is pretty unnerving simply because of the vulnerable position the character is in and the sheer silence of the house, it builds anticipation and tension, so good job there. It did annoy me though, that the checkpoint requires you to redo everything in the house. Besides that, nice little horror experience.

its so boring nothing happens, you just do a bunch of mundane sht

Good game Bro

Cool little game! I can see a lot of similarities/inspiration from FTF and the jumpscares were pretty good! Only gripes being the grocery list part seemed unneeded, and checkpoints closer to the part you can die would be better. Not a bad game, keep at it!

I liked the game and the story, the experience was great

Gameplay PT-BR

Please make the grocery list less annoying. There's nothing gained from making it a whole thing; it's not gaameplay. Make the items bigger and easier to see (idk, maybe they have a bit of sparkle) so I don't have to scan so hard for loose JPEGs (in order) for... nothing.

[This was the final game I played in this video] I felt like more could've been added to this. Felt a little odd that they just showed up without any other previous events happening to lead up to it. However, I enjoyed what was here and it has some pretty good jumpscares that worked well!

Great Game!

I tried out both games, this one I like the most, good job! 

2 IN 1 FEATURE OF generalxaxe GAmes! -LIVE- (youtube.com) 

great game, especially for your first!! keen to see what else you come up with :) 

Pretty good atmosphere, wished it had more jumpscares and more time spent at the house

this game is amazing for your first fully fledged game i wish the best for future products it has some good jumpscares!!

This was an awesome game my dude! Great little story, I got caught every possible way before actually getting the good ending haha. I was not expecting 2 killers this time, sneaky bastards! Great sound scape, and I always like the immersion being added! Great job I recommend and no joke, thanks for the shout out in the credits, actually made me smile thank you bud! Here is my gameplay video! Sub and help my channel grow everyone! :)

maybe don't make us start over an entire sequence before the events in the preview? failed once by doing one thing, then trying to do another thing after trying the 2nd option caused another fail.
