Intriguing! This was really pretty and the ending was, for me, unexpected. I enjoyed it! Thank you! Yours is the second game played, @6:42
Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed it !
Lure is a walking horror sim. To tell more about it would be spoiling the entire game so I advise you to try it instead. It's short, free and a recommendation.
It runs more than well on Steam Deck as you can see by pressing the link above.
Fourth in the line up. A fine short bit of weird fishing related horror. Such a great little twist with just enough build up.
hurt my eyes sadly, did enjoy it tho!
cute and fun, honestly laughed at the end but i did enjoy it.
Glad you liked it !
Nice short game experience! I loved the graphics.
Heeeyy I trusted the old man! hahaha...WTF!!! Played here :)
Hey, nice one :D

Thanks!
Perfect aesthetic! Really love the colors, PSX graphics, filters, and attention to details :)

Hi, I played your game. It was a great creation of you, very creative.
Short and sweet, game was well made . Story was easy to follow and the jumpscare was perfect ! Good job !

Hello, is there any way I can change the screen size of this game? I'm wanting to run it in a smaller window :)
Unfortunately not at this stage, thanks for letting us know – we will look to see if we can add that in a future update.
Thanks for playing!
Loved this game alot from the feel the atmosphere gave to the unexpected end. I am a sucker for these types of games that have some japanese shrine involved. Good job devs keep making more!
Thank you for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it!
Check out my video.

Olá, venho através desse texto dizer que simplesmente amei demais esse jogo, fiz uma gameplay e tomei alguns sustos que me deixou bem satisfeito. FIca aqui minha recomendação, não só pra assistir essa gameplay, como também pra jogar e sentir essa experiencia incrivel que é desse jogo. Sucesso a todos que fizeram também gameplays, Tamo juntos.
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it!
That got me good. Very creepy atmosphere and a good ending.
short but fun! Loved the graphical style!
Thanks for the review!
Loved the video, thanks for playing.
Short, but incredibly beautiful. One of my favorite indie horror games!
That's amazing to hear, thank you for playing!
Thanks for playing, enjoyed your reaction to the ending.
Was a pretty neat game! The attention to detail was well done; how the character can't fish in the other location the third time and then the old man disappears if the player decides to go back were really small but nice touches that adds to the overall game! Only thing I would suggest would be to have a small backstory and some hints of the large fish in the shrine to tie everything together, but this was still well made, short and fun to play!
Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed the game!
Short sweet easy. Very nice game it got me
Thanks for checking out our game.
Oh give me love to all the team members ty
The ending caught me by surprise that it scared me. Good game
Very Short and simplistic Horror game. Got me in the end, lighting and shadows were fantastic. I'll rate it a 4/5 was a bit to short for me.
Thanks for playing!
Thank you for playing, it was great to see your reaction and glad you appreciated the psx inspired aesthetics.
Anytime, really enjoyed everything about the game and the nice twist at the end, keep up the great work 😊
I loved it! It was very spooky and gave me quite the jolt at the end. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the fish :D
Thanks for checking out, glad to hear the ending gave you a jolt!
7/10
Thanks for playing!
