How it feels

A vibrant yet unnerving stealth horror game where you hide from monstrous eyeballs while soaked in existential dread and soothing ambient music.

What players say

Players describe a very short, colorful horror game with a quirky premise of avoiding floating eyes. Many praise its unique atmosphere but note that the game is often obtuse, with unclear objectives and a difficulty spike in the cave level that frustrated some. Players are split on the secret hunting, with some enjoying it and others finding it tedious.
