Out Of The Light
A downloadable game for Windows
Out of the Light - Less light you use, more things you will see
A horror game spiced with a little humor, made for the Blackthornprod Game Jam #3
Light plays an important role in this short game:
- You need light to see where you are going
- Light however hides the key which you need to get out of the house
- Enemy can't see you, but lights and noises attracts it...
- ...so don't run and use your light wisely
The Gameplay:
You and few more people are trapped inside house where dude with paperbag in his head keeps you captive. Prisoners also wear paperbag so the captor is one of us... or just prisoner running through hallucinations? Maybe real captor is coming back soon...? However that paperbag dude doesn't like noises and lights and you have to escape from the house without disrupting him. And because you are warm-hearted, of course you'll save fellow prisoners by dragging them to front door so you can all leave the house happily. But front door is locked and you need to find the key. The problem is that key is made from something magical that won't show in light. Instead it glows in dark...
Obectives:
- Find the front door key to get out (The key will randomly appear in a different location when a new game starts)
- Drag your fellow prisoners to front door (Hint: pants)
Hints:
- Open the doors for more light
Controls:
WASD - Move
Shift - Run
C - Crouch
E - Open Door
Space - Jump
Mouse wheel - Adjust light brigthness
Left Mouse - Crap and drag
Right Mouse - Release

Attack of the bag heads! But amazing game, I didn't know it was for a game jam.
Show post...
creepy weird
what is the minimum system specs needed
My computer:
Still running ~25-30fps so should run pretty fine with slower computers too. Download the game from Google drive link in details to play with fixed version. Otherwise enemy may be slow. Can't update game in itchio until jam is over.
Hope you are able to play it. Have fun!
PS. I will update graphics settings to next version.
Thanks for playing. I cant update the game until jam is over but there is temporary link in game page to version where enemy speed issue is fixed!
変態とホラーゲームが合体した感じシンプルで少し笑えて楽しいゲームです
Thanks for playing. Hope you enjoyed the game even though the enemy was too slow. Gonna be fixed after jam is finished!
I would like to congratulate you on your work. The proposal is interesting and even funny, but in my opinion it could be more neat, especially with a view to a better replay factor. But it is justifiable, knowing that it was done in just 7 days in a Jam. Congratulations.
Thanks for review! I watched your gameplay video and noticed some interesting things: Enemy is way too slow and some sound effects played rapidly. These didn't happen with my computer or test computer. Gotta check em out!
Very interesting game. A bit short but still good. I hope to see more from you in the future.
Btw if you are interested, here is video of your game:
Thank you! Appreciate it!
