What does "home" mean to you ?

For us, it is a place where we feel safe. It can be a location. It can be someone's arms. And in the case of our protagonist: her mother's arms.


A new life can be scary

Moving into a new house, with a step-father that frighten you can be hard for a child... In Step by step, you must reach your mom while avoiding your step-monster-dad. 

Hide behind furniture, comfort yourself with teddy bears, avoid objects that make you anxious and try not to get caught by the one who, you think, brought darkness to your old life. 


Controls

  • Use Q & D (or the left and right arrows) to move to the left or to the right
  • Press E to hide
  • Press SPACE to scream in order to reduce your anxiety

Don't worry, it also gives us some, even if we made it... ;)

Is there a bug that the man wouldn't open the second door and he just walk though it?

they are still not fixing the bug. Hope I can join the game soon

Hello there !
Thank you for your interest about our game !

Unfortunately, the team is very busy those days, due to work/school and all the projects that come along. But we took note of your bug and we will work on it as soon as we can !

Be sure that we will post a message when it will be fixed :)

First of all, props to whoever did the kid's voice

To reduce your anxiety, let me tell you a secret: this was recorded into a bathroom, as it was the quietest place of our jam site !
