Would you dare watching TV the whole night ? Play this game if you wanna try !
Watching TV is a great way to reassure yourself when shadows come into your room. Though, you'll need to switch between channels to keep yourself from being bored and scared, or eventually completely frozen from fear.
If you need to check if any shadow is in the room, you should turn off the TV and you'll see...
If there is one, turn on the light ! However, do not abuse of the lamp, it could get broken anytime...
-----------------------------------------------------------------
- Click to turn on and off the light
- Press spacebar to turn on and off the TV
- Press any other keys to switch between channels

I did not think I would go through the whole night but I did! Well done it's very interesting and a great use of the theme I think.
I'm not sure if the game can be won; I made it to 8:17 am and still had to worry about the shadow. The interaction was minimal, but the actions made sense and the tension was great. Good job.
@Ken Scott : Yes, you're absolutely right, it's a bug ! We'll try to fix it as soon as possible. Thanks for the comment. ;)
Really nice spooky atmosphere, loved the interpretation of the theme. Reminded me a bit of Five Nights at Freddy's! Loved the implementation of the TV shows too, you guys did a great job.
Pouah ._. They got me
What an athmosphere, it's great !
My heart is beating harder (that means I'm staill alive, so it's ok)
Felt like watching TV at 2 am as a kid. Love the idea. It moved a little slow probably. I did appreciate the low res clips. Funny idea.
Nice and spooky atmosphere. I'm not the only one who tried a spooky game ^^ Good job!
Pretty tense, wasn't entirely sure what I was warding off until I turned off the TV - creepy! Think the game could do with a bit more to do, but it's a great idea.
Stick to the theme, good work with the mood (jolies références les gars)
Wow, so simple yet so horrifying! Have been immersed for the past 5 minutes and felt truly scared to turn off the light or TV. Great job :D
Very nice mood indeed. I love that you can turn off/on the lights detail. I wish there were more stuff in the room to interact with, though. Great job nonetheless. Very interesting approach to the theme
Awesome! I would have liked to better understand how the light could break before starting - number of clicks? Length on? Mood in this game was really good! Très bien fait!
The atmosphere is very intense. Made me jump! Love the graphics too.
I couldnt help myself. I had to see what would happen if I turned everything off and just waited once I saw the shadow the first time :P pretty creepy though. Good looking art and the tv was nicely done.
Oh my I didn't think this would scare me and it did. Good job on that! The gameplay itself is quite boring but that's sort of a good thing with games like this.
There's no audio rating, I would've given that quite a bit, it really helped set the mood. It got really tense towards the end, turned the tv off at 5 minute mark, I assume the night is longer... great game (:
Wow. Beautiful atmosphere.
Nice selection of videos.
Gameplay worked but got a bit boring in the end.
Getting eaten by monsters at 9 in the morning was a bit surprising.
Very simple but extremely atmospheric. I like the understated design, with everything being done in shadow...especially when a monster gets you. I appreciate subtetly in horror and this game is as subtle as it is effective. The real TV clips also add a lot to the authenticity. Great entry!
(Also, Call of the Wintermoon \m/ )
Ah, I got an error, so I couldn't play your game. Shame, it looks cool.
Under the unity logo it says "Error launching Unity Player", and clicking a link labeled "Error details" gives the message "Bad file length".

NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Great mood. Will have nightmares tonight.
