    Your game looks really cool! 😊 I'm the leader of a small bundle community where we occasionally put together game bundles, and it's that time again!

    Your game would be a perfect fit for our current collection, so I wanted to reach out and ask if you'd like to join us. If you're interested, you can submit your game directly here: https://itch.io/jam/urb2015. I'd truly appreciate it if you'd consider participating!

    You can find all our past bundles and important details about bundle creation on our bundle page: https://xx696.itch.io/bundles-ultimate.

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask me anytime. Thanks for your time! 😊

    Best regards, love, and peace! ❤️✌️

    Very cool you'Re joinining in as well <3 at the moment its enough to submit the game, but when the bundle jam is over im going to create the actual bundle EVERY MEMBER has to approve it (which is the most painful part of bundle creation) and then its always hard to rach people but its cool that you'll be there, ill tell you once its time to check the link and approve it....before you approve you can check the equal revenue split and all bundle details so that everyone can see that im trying to make everthing fair and equally useful for any memeber that joins also for the creation and the bundle i dont take more then anyone else im taking the same percentahe like everyone else thats a ground principle of BUNDLES ULTIMATE: For rhe unty of the whole indie scene and to help devs that are just starting and haven such a big attention like others, the ultimate bundles normally also create a lot of attention for all the games :) If you want to actually be informed about any further spets and news i recommend joining our discord: https://discord.com/invite/YCbvSQ55Qy also a lot of nice devs are there to chat about anything you <3 best regards love and peace

    This game has very good potential. The atmosphere in the game is great, outside and also in the house. I got solidly scared 3 times. It does have a few beauty flaws but it's still a fine demonstration of the possibilities of this game if continued on in the future of what it can give. Great job.

    Thank you so much! I really appreciate the feedback.
    I’m really happy the atmosphere worked and that it gave you a few scares!
    Next, I’ll be focusing on bug fixes and optimization
