Congrats on Caseoh playing your game, Dawg!
Just finished it! Loved the simple, but engaging gameplay cycle of finding things to make photos of. The use of crawlspaces is really nice and builds additional tension. The effects are quite pretty, especially
how items dissappear after taking a photo of them. The glitchy movement
feels like it should be bothersome, but really is not and adds to the feel of the game.Overall an interesting experience, that fills you with lots curiousity and fear.
I think my favourite segment was the chair-sitting one, such a nice idea!
