About

Being stranded in a snowy forest struggling to make it through each day makes you very tired by the end of it all. As you go to help your neighbors out with their needs, you notice some things are off about them. While searching for them, you find yourself going down a rabbit hole to find out what is happening. 


Content

While this is meant to be a short horror game (10-15 minutes), there's an achievement system and some secrets/easter eggs to find if you want more to do. Exploring around and finding these secrets may or may not unlock a 2nd ending. 


Keybinds

There is a menu in game in case you forget, but here you go. 

Movement - WASD

Interact - E

Drop Item - G

Jump - SPACE

Shoot - LEFT CLICK

Pause - ESC

Achievements - M

Keybinds - B


Other Info

This game does store your progress on completed achievements, so you are not forced to do everything in 1 sitting. 


This is my first game, so it's probably a bit scuffed, but I'm open to feedback and will make changes where necessary.


Updates

0.1.1 

- Fixed a bug preventing the "New Friend" achievement from being completed

- Added a hint for the logs task to better guide the player

- Removed invisible hitbox on fireplace when no logs were present

- Fixed an issue where the game progressed more than intended at the shoveling task (Hopefully this fixes the issue where players aren't able to shovel the snow for some reason, but I don't know. I haven't been able to replicate it. I also might've just uploaded the wrong version of game somehow.)

0.1.2 

- Removed a script that used keybinds to progress the game for testing (This was probably what was preventing some people from doing the shovel task, which explains a lot.)

- Added signs indicating whose house is whose 

0.1.3 

- Added an indicator to help guide the player on the window task

- Made window breaking hitbox more accurate to the window (This should help hitting it more consistent)

- Changed certain doors to open when looked at rather than by proximity

0.1.4 

- Re-added a hitbox that suddenly disappeared on some furniture 

- Shrunk the cat, no longer huge 

- Added ability to complete the "New Friend" achievement at any house 

- Slightly increased the speed of the bike 

- Fixed an issue that caused the basement to lag progressively worse the longer that the player stayed

0.1.5

- Added crosshair

- Moved trees closer to fireplace

- Fixed various bugs

- (Hotfix) Removed code that gave you free achievements

0.1.6

- Fixed a bug where invisible hitboxes around the houses were preventing players from interacting with stuff correctly

- Fixed a bug that made the player return home any time "F" was pressed

0.1.7

- Various bug fixes (Game actually works now sorry!)

- Shrunk crosshair slightly

- Smoothened movements

Is there a trick to breaking the window in the back, because I can't seem to figure it out?

The window on the right is the only one that works, and if you're too close it doesn't work for some reason. This is one thing I knew, but kind of forgot about. I'll improve on that right now.

Not gonna lie, this was a great horror game. I love low quality graphic horror games, it makes them creepier and more ominous. And that first jump scare got me so good. Good stuff.

The shovel isn't working :(

Hey, thank you for telling me, I'll try and get it fixed right away. But I need to ask if you made sure that you got all 3 wood for Michael. You should have gotten a textbox that confims it was done. If you did, then it's 100% on my end and I'll try and see what I missed. 

Hi ! Thanks for your answer. Yes I've got all 3 wood for Micheal.

Okay, it seems to be fixed now. Once again, thanks for informing me!
