This was fantastic! I usually don't play horror games, but this game was something else! The atmosphere was creepy and the art style was awesome! 10/10
Wow pretty cool, did the man running have any relevance to the plot though ? Or was he experimenting into reviving people ? Why were there so many dead children and who was the woman ?
Very interesting point and click adventure game with a bit of lovecraftian sprinkle, i really enjoy going through games like these to indulge myself in the ambience and narrate it myself. Thank you for making this!
Hello, this game is so awesome! Such an interesting atmosphere and really made me think of what else is contained in this world. I made a YouTube video about a few indie games and made a section to discuss Veiled, really interesting stuff!
This game relies 100% on its ambience and pulls it off amazingly, which is rare.
The atmosphere of this game is awesome. The art style combined with the atmospheric ambient music makes for a very creepy experience. Only downside is the crappy English you encounter every once in a while :( but that is an easy fix. The story itself was obviously not too extensive, and i am ok with that. I like some mystery in my stories. I don't need all the answers! It also gave me some lovecraftian vibes. Oh and there are NO JUMPSCARES.
Thanks for the video, we're glad you liked it. Sorry for the English mistakes. We, Frenchs, are notoriously bad at English. And as you could see in the game, we're more versed in the culinary arts :D
haha that made me laugh. and you don't have to apologize for being french! all jokes aside, if you guys ever need someone to look over your English grammar for future games hit me up, i'll do it for free ;)
(some of my friends watched my video and said they really loved your game and they wished for a longer version of it. they were even willing to pay. do with this information as you wish~)
The issue (as it always is^^) is finding time since we have full time jobs and busy lives. It's doable to set things aside for the duration of a gamejam but it's harder to make space otherwise. Hopefully someday soon we'll have the time to revisit it. Thanks for your support :)
8:50 - Loved the writing but I absolutely ADORED the 1bit art. The amount of detail and style you were able to get through with just two colors is amazing.
Hi! Some people have reported freezes when playing in browser. So far we haven't been able to identify what causes it. It appears to be quite random, sorry. The downloadable seems unaffected
This was such a delight, the atmosphere was fantastic, great writing and pacing and you used the visuals in a way that the mind filled in the rest of the terrors. This was a fantastic ride and you absolute nailed the tension.
Dang! This was super awesome! I checked out itch.io for the first time and this is the first game I played. Honestly blown away by the atmosphere and art style. Fantastic!
I absolutely loved the style and atmosphere of this game! I don't do well with jumpscares, so I also loved how this game manages to be very scary and creepy without them. Although the game initially froze for me, I had absolutely no problems when I downloaded it instead of playing in browser. This was a very enjoyable short horror experience :)
I just played this game again and the atmosphere is really great !
There is something that reminds me of its vibes from old Italian horror movies and the aesthetic associated with the gothic typeface of the game title reminds me of the creepy side of black / doom metal covers.
I posted a game 2 weeks ago. A short point n click of horror of which certain similarities with your work make me think that we most likely share common references.
I would love for you to find the time to try it someday.
It is called INVITATIONEM. This is my 1st and only game at the moment. If you want, you can find it on my page.
Bravo again and thank you very much for this game ! Great job!
Hi, I am a Games Art student and very much inspired by this game. You nailed the atmosphere and the aesthetic. I really wanna know the process and how You produced these images. It will be so much helpful. Thank you so much and well done, I loved the game
Looks interesting. Sadly it froze on the dead lady in the bathtub screen, after showing the first chunk of text (mouse cursor stuck as ellipsis). After reloading the page it didn't resume from where it froze, and I don't feel like redoing all the steps up to that point.
We'll try to figure out was causes the freeze. It's hard to identify as it seem to be rare and very random. Maybe try the .exe version in a while if you feel like giving it another go. We're sorry it happened.

I absolutely loved this. Great job!
really good game, but the lack of a save and load buttons kills the experience
I loved it, really well done and interesting. J'ai vraiment adoré!
Probably one of the best Point & Click horror games i've ever played. Damn good job
Thanks for the video :)
Really interesting game, nice graphics and atmosphere, great job!
this game is my favorite!
We're glad you liked it, thank you for the video :)
Hey, the game doesn't continue after the opening screen. I'm playing on browser.
Hi! Some people have reported freezes when playing in browser. So far we haven't been able to identify what causes it. It appears to be quite random, sorry. The downloadable seems unaffected
Thank you! Will do so.
Fantastic! Amazing artwork and tension.
A great experience. Congratulations.
Very Shadowgate-esque vibe, but in horror.
just a heads up, Itch.io shows a spectrum forces video with your game in the recommended header section. :D That aside, great work! :D
Thanks for spotting that up :). We got in touch with itch to see if they can change it.
Thanks for the video :) We're glad you liked it

just amazing!!! i love the style and atmosphere of this game so much!
It was one of the best and different games I've played.
I really like the way you told the story.
My god, what an amazing thing!
I love old text games, you managed to create an indescribable atmosphere, it's just incredible!
I love everything about this game from the cursor to the image change effect. Please keep up the good work!

freezes when switching tabs or after long time of no interaction
Erf sorry about that. The web version can sometime have issues we found hard to repro :(
(sorry in advance for my english, i'm french ^^)

J'adore les histoires classiques de maison hantée ! Le style graphique et l'ambiance sonore donnent vraiment un aspect effrayant. BRAVO !
Merci :)
Love thw visuals. The colours really work 👍

look up dither-me-this for how to get this effect.

I have experienced the freeze multiple times when playing in the browser.
In the PC works fine - never saw it.
Hey, I'm looking for a new horror game to play, but I don't do well with jumpscares- does this have any?
It's not really that sort of game. It's very scenic and artistic with horror themes. Give it a try~
awesome :D thanks for the speedy reply!
A very nice experience! Well-written and nicely suspenseful. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Thanks for the vidéo!
