it is a good game even tho i dont really understood everything, i appreciate the graphics and the story. Maybe you wanted us to think deeply, but i kinda got problems to think deeply. was this guy the representation of depression comming in our minds ? I dont really know but i think there is a more complicated story than just a simple horror game, hope someone will one day explain it but i can't do all the differents ends btw, I appreciate the game !
I enjoyed this game truly an amazing story with a lot of endings each end with a new scare it was actually a really good game I enjoyed the concept of it and the way it was played out anyways good job and cant wait to see what else you create!
Knock.. KNocK. He's here, he wants YOUR gift... let him in.
This was a short, simple, yet thrilling way to symbolize the idea of grieving.. and losing the memories of the one's you lost.
I'm not sure if this game was metaphorical, or there was actually a creature that was taking things from people. However, it definitely reminded me of the Crypt TV Look-See monster.
If there are more games yet to come, I would've enjoyed a more branched out version, with multiple endings. In total there were 3, and each selection would bring you back to 1 of the 3 endings. However, it kept me on my feet, and the story that was implemented kept me intrigued, and even saddened for the main protag of the story.

Thank you SeriousDaniel, for an enjoyable, guest like, experience!🌹
This game was very good and dark, it felt like no matter what each outcome still resulted in something bad. I love the music too, reminded me of some John carpenter type stuff.
Very different from what I expected, but I was invested! The quick save feature makes it really easy to go back and explore different possibilities, and the mystery surrounding the Guest itself made me want to dive deeper each time. You don't see to many games like this and you nailed it, good job!
First I'm someone that likes to read in stupid voices, so I enjoyed my time playing it up as these characters through this narrative. In this playthrough I got 3 endings one being the Good one and it's obvious there are quite a few more.
I tend to do a pros and cons list when I play these games on itchio. You know to actually give the devs feedback on their games instead of just posting a video like most people tend to do here. The problem is there really isn't much to critique besides the story itself.
Story: Besides the obvious being some weird "guest" comes to your house at night. Apparently (SPOILERS) this is something he does quite often to many people it seems. But the "problem" is when the quest leaves you takes something important to you.
I'm assuming by playing through more ending more of the background info would be revealed to you. But the idea for the guy that we follow seems to be sometimes it's better to leave the past as is and live in the now (I'm pretty sure I'm probably wrong but I am writing this a day after I played the game so the story isn't as sharp in my head right now).
Even though the game doesn't leave much of a lasting impression on you it does play in such a way that once you get a bad ending you are very inclined to continue so props for that.
All in all a pretty nice 20 to 30min read (depending on how many endings you want).
I would recommend for anyone that enjoys and short slightly creepy narrative. I will keep my eyes out for part 2.
To the dev if you decide to peek at my video let me know if I should actually play through some more of those bad endings to see something interesting.
after playing this game i can only say that this is one of my favorite recent indie games. absolutely phenomenal. i really enjoyed the characters and honestly feel like this game was made specifically for me fr. i WILL be playing your other games.
This game was amazing! Loved the many ending and not going to lie loved how much of a a**hole the guest is. I can't believe I don't have a face anymore lol. Great job devs
He looked nice so I let him in and he played me like a trombone! I had lots of fun and laughs as you'll see in my Gameplay:
This was a great short horror story, SeriousDaniel! This Guest fella was very awkward, but so was our main character. If this were made into a movie, Guest could be played by Cillian Murphey. You know, that guy who played Scarecrow in Batman. Thank you for this great experience! You did a good job!
If you'd like my critical review here are my thoughts:
The aesthetic of the whole game is spot on. I would consider leaning in to this syle for furture games you make. You have a knack for it and I really would like to see more. The juxtaposition of the weird early 90s PC faced antagonist and the dirty PS1 graphics was stellar. And the semi-point and click aespect was also great.
Add way more options and outcomes (variations of endings).
More dialogue options rather than repeating phrases.
I really think you could have yourself the next big Indie Horror Game Mascot if you delved a little deeper into the Guests story.
pretty cool game! seems like more of a choose your own adventure rather then a game but it was still a good scary game! i played it for a youtube video (ignore the first 2 mins of it lol)
THESE GAMES HAVE MADE ME QUESTION WHY I CONTINUE TO TORTURE MYSELF WITH THESE HORROR GAMES, AND AMAZING JUMPSCARES!! ( This game was in it!! ) Youtube Link -

Nah fr this game was good, not too many jumpscares but it was still good. And I like the fact that you can get multiple endings.
I actually really loved this game! Good job!
Creepy game! Reminded me a lot of My Uncle Who Works for Nintendo.. same sort of vibes. Keep up the great work!

This game is so creative and CREEPY. Great job

the guest as cillian murphy is an amazing idea!
Such a cool lil game! Can't wait for more 💯
At first I was a bit skeptical, but then I absolutely started to love this game! The atmosphere is super creepy! Keep up the great work c:
i was trying to act funny to try to make the game NOT SCARY. got scared anyways, if your playing dont let this guy in PLEASE.
I was really unsure about this game at first, but its very rewarding to not get a bad ending =)
