This was great to play in the wake of take survey and such. I loved what you did with the audio cues. Good horror knows how to utilize sound you got got that to a Tee! Hope you enjoy the video I made.
Thanks for such kind words! I played your game about the bushfires and thought it was good stuff. If you're interested in doing more with Twine, I recommend joining the Twine Discord server, both for help and inspiration. I'm litrouke#2131 on Discord if you want an invite.
I don't have Discord, though I'm seeing links to Discord discussions all over the place, especially in the jams. Do I need a smartphone for it? Gah! I forgot. I got my first smartphone recently, so I do actually have one. I just haven't gotten used to working it yet. I go on the Twine subreddit?
Yeah, you can get Discord on your smartphone, but you can also download it to your computer as an application or open it in your browser like a normal website (blue button). Lots of ways to get it. The subreddit's good too, of course!
Thanks so much! I'm not planning to continue this one -- just a one-day experiment -- but I did make another horror game you can check out (and I'll be releasing another horror-ish one soon).
I wore headphones while playing this and didn't expect the sound effects. I REALLY THOUGHT SOMEONE WAS KNOCKING AT MY DOOR. THIS GAME IS VERY WELL MADe
Amazing! Makes you feel really uncomfortable, it clearly shows good horror doesn't need jumpscares!By the way, as I was playing the game someone actually knocked on my door, thank goodness it was just my mother, I almost shit my pants XD!
I made an account just to comment for this game...
I've never played such a dogshit, cheesy, lazy and boring game before. This is like the worst attempt at a horror game ever, it's unoriginal, pretentious garbage.
Aww! Thank you so much for the nice reply. I'm really glad you enjoyed it. You did an extremely great job, especially with the sound effects. Even playing it during the day, I found myself actually creeped out. Haha! Well done! :)
unfortunately i couldn't go past the little page right before question number 9 :( a pop-up came up and said there was an error and the next arrow wasn't on the screen so i couldn't progress :(( is there maybe a bug or something? it may just be my dumb computer idk :( i would love to play this game as it's an interesting concept so please get back to me :(
Hey, I'm sorry to hear that! Would you be able to screenshot the error? I haven't seen it with other players, so I'm not sure of the exact issue you're having.
Definitely not lucky. It was an awful experience. But as for people liking you... Most people don't act on their crushes, so if they liked you, you probably just wouldn't know. I'm sure there's been someone who quietly admired you from afar.

hey lit, I wish to translate your game in Italan for free (free as freedom and as beer)
may you be interested? let me know. :3
Absolutely! You can check out my profile for ways to contact me.
I contacted you anonymously via your non-work-related tumblr account
Strange, I haven't received a message yet on tumblr... Want to shoot me an email instead?
I used https://litrouke.tumblr.com/ask instead of https://litrouke-works.tumblr.com/ask since the former does not need registration! btw e-mail is better
Tumblr's messaging system is notoriously unreliable, so email is definitely better. You can reach me at litrouke at gmail. Looking forward to it!
awsome
I love these type of games. please make more!
This was an amazing game!
i like it! spooked me
my heart is beating so fast great job!

Your game starts at 7:50Great playthrough, thanks for posting! Love how enthusiastic you are about everything.
I keep coming back and playing this game. I can't help it. It creeps me out every time and I've become addicted to it. Send help.
Hahaha, this is an amazing comment. I hope you've managed to overcome your addiction!
I shall forever remain in awe with what you created using Twine. I'm still a newbie. Part of the reason I'm addicted; the game is just mind-blowing.

that was good!
Thank you!
Loved this! I played without sound the first time and it was still super spooky. Subtle and well done.
Thanks! Glad to hear it works even without audio.
Oh oof this was super spooky, excellent choice of a survey medium to tell the story!
Thank you! Always fun finding new things to do with Twine.
Very very cool! Loved it and got chills.
Thank you thank you :)
that was awesome! made me feel uncomfortable for a moment but i loved it
Thanks so much!
No :(
Great game, spooked me right out
Thank you for playing -- and for cracking me up with your comment hehe
I love it! Please either make another or continue this one.
Thanks so much! I'm not planning to continue this one -- just a one-day experiment -- but I did make another horror game you can check out (and I'll be releasing another horror-ish one soon).
ooo! I can't wait!

The turn around part gave me chills
Thank you! Glad I could provide some good scares.
Amazing! Makes you feel really uncomfortable, it clearly shows good horror doesn't need jumpscares!By the way, as I was playing the game someone actually knocked on my door, thank goodness it was just my mother, I almost shit my pants XD!
That's hilarious! Glad you had a good experience playing it haha
This game was really well-made! Short and sweet, cut to the point! I know this is like the Watson-Scott test but no jumpscares! I really liked it. :)
I've had some feedback that people expected/wanted a jumpscare at the end, but I prefer quiet, lingering horror. Glad you enjoyed!
An honest reaction by three friends:
Tempted to patch in a secret "lapping" ending...
haha, *lapping intensifies*
I really enjoyed it! I knew what was coming but still wanted to keep answering. The perfect length, too.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed.

With love, Reno.
Please write all my promo materials from now on. ♥️
Nice! I like twine being used in this way :D
Oh, thank you! I'm a fan of your stuff too, especially the sheep counting simulator.
Thanks! All of the sheep drawn in it are rare breeds!
Wow! What an amazing game! Very, very effective! Great job!

Honestly, this might be my favorite playthrough yet. Exactly the reactions I was hoping for with this game! Thanks for posting.
Aww! Thank you so much for the nice reply. I'm really glad you enjoyed it. You did an extremely great job, especially with the sound effects. Even playing it during the day, I found myself actually creeped out. Haha! Well done! :)
I loved this!!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed and thank you for the feedback at the end.
your welcome
So creeped out, very well done!!!
Thank you!
I had a lot of fun with this! I liked all the little details - well done!
Thanks!!
Won't lie, creeped me out. Nice little 5 minute interactive experience.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
love it though i wish i could actually let them in they seem nice.
Well, there is the sound of a door opening at the end... Perhaps you got your wish. ;)
Not bad for something made in 24 hours!
Thanks for playing and glad you enjoyed the mild creepiness! (Bonus points for using "skew-whiff," a term I learned only recently and already love.)
I went into it expecting to feel uncomfortable and... Mission accomplished - very atmospheric :D
Thanks for playing and posting a lovely video! I cracked up at all the checking on the wardrobe door.
I'm still getting creeped out by it now, so 10/10 for lingering trauma! ;)
awsome but stalkerish i know feel like im being watched
unfortunately i couldn't go past the little page right before question number 9 :( a pop-up came up and said there was an error and the next arrow wasn't on the screen so i couldn't progress :(( is there maybe a bug or something? it may just be my dumb computer idk :( i would love to play this game as it's an interesting concept so please get back to me :(

really liked this!!
Thank you!
DANG it spook me! You did great job!
Haha, thanks! The highest praise for a horror game is definitely spooks
Np!
This is incredible!
Thank you so much!
This was brilliant ! I thought it couldn't be that creepy since it was all text, but you got me
Thanks! Audio effects go a long way. If you're looking for another great text-based horror, my father's long long legs is a classic.
this is SUCH an amazing concept and really freaked me out the moment it started happening-- great job!!
Thank you so much! Glad I could give ya a little scare ;)
I answered as carefully
as I could.
Thanks for playing and posting a video! I appreciate you taking the time to reflect on the game at the end. Glad you enjoyed!
Very well done. I've been stalked before, but it was by someone who had a crush on me, so this felt different.
lucky nobody likes me or wants to stalk me :( im glad nobody wants to stalk me but I don't have somebody who likes me :(
Definitely not lucky. It was an awful experience. But as for people liking you... Most people don't act on their crushes, so if they liked you, you probably just wouldn't know. I'm sure there's been someone who quietly admired you from afar.
I had a similar situation to yours back in uni -- thankfully, it was brief and nowhere near as severe as this game. Still incredibly stressful.
Thanks for playing despite the difficult content and for posting feedback! Really appreciate it.
Short but strong. Great work!
Thank you!
