A downloadable game for Windows

A ten minute horror game. This is a simple, retro styled horror game made with a deliberate focus on creating something short and basic I could complete from start to finish.  I did all the design, code, wrote the music, and did all the art and animation (such as it is). It's basically complete bar fixing any bugs people find.

It was interesting—the game's aesthetics really remind me of the classic Game Boy!

I really enjoyed playing, "A Willing Friend". Though, I had an issue deleting the progress of the game and wanted to record this to share with others. I hope this can be fixed and that there will be more content!

Hey, sorry I've only just seem this. Does the 'delete all saves' button in the options not work? 

It's fine! Also, it seems that I'm unable to delete my saved progress with the, "delete all saves" option in the game.

Made a video


Really liked this! Well put together and I love the idea of a game in a game. Its the second game I play in this video, starts at 6:16.

Oh my God, this is amazing. Thank you! Sorry the garbage thing threw you off. Originally you could only interact with the shutters and the garbage thing was just a joke. I might have to add in some more pointers if that's not clear. 

Oh hey it's no biggie. I figured it out quickly enough; I like flavor text on random stuff in games!

How do you expand the screen of the game?

Sorry, my bad, I left a debug thing on. I've uploaded a new version which should be full screen. Let me know if it works. Be grateful for any feed back on anything else that doesn't work or isn't clear. Thanks, 

It's fine, and now I can play the game in full screen. Thank you! Also, I'll be happy to try and give out some feedback when I can!

Great, glad it's fixed. Thanks for letting me know. I updated some text and must have left it in non-fullscreen while I was fixing stuff.
