Well, Mike ran in to problems getting ldjam.com working properly with about 12 hours left in the Compo, so this is the backup plan.
You are a walking closet, not a lazy walk-in closet. You may be the smallest room in the house, but you're definitely the hungriest! Break out from your nesting place, walk around the neighborhood and fill your hangers and shelves with clothes and shoes! Bite clothing off of humans and leave them naked. Return to your original spot before midnight or you'll turn into Christopher Walken.
Controls:
WASD/Arrows: Walk
Spacebar: Chomp
Hold down Shift: shrink for squeezing through doorways
Note: I didn't finish the ending, scores, or countdown timer for this game yet. Sorry, you'll need to wait for the post-jam build to see what happens when the time runs out. For now, just have fun stealing peoples' clothes. The people are all proc-gen, so they are different every time.

Background: As a kid, I misheard a grownup calling a walk-in closet a "walking closet". I always wondered how they would walk, and what they would do if they were to walk. It also made me a bit afraid of them. In this game, I finally explore what happens when a closet walks...

It's a little sad that your game is not finished. I was hoping even after the message came, that there would be some ending screen. Made all the people naked anyway! Really funny to play, the sounds made me smile and the closet looks really beatiful :)
This is so good! I kept on playing until I removed ever persons clothes XD (I haven't gotten to say that about any other jam game XD)
Great idea and very well executed :) It was really funny!
Very nice idea and pretty horrifying ending, I mean who want to be Christopher Walken?
Nice! Very funny and good controls!
All your clothes are belong to us! haha
Pretty funny! Great work on the graphics, especially the opening scene. It sad it wasn't finished.
Best game i've played so far, such an original idea, really well executed, the graphics are AMAZING and the music fits really well, perfect score from me. Hope you make a full game out of it.
wow! This is amazing. I can't wait to see where you take this cause it is such a unique idea!! really great work.
This is a pretty crazy concept. I feel if you had had more time this could be great.
LOL, this is one of the funniest games I have played this ludum daré, I loved everything, very good work. Excellent game. ♥
Oh my god this was awesome. Followed on twitter. If you keep updating this game I'll totally play more of this.
Oohhh, this was so, so good.
The humor, the music, the idea, everything executed perfectly
I'd love to play more.
Your games always deliver, they're really cool
Sincerely, a big fan
Loved the audio and the graphics, Fun game to play, Was guttered it wasn't finished, but what you have managed to finish is epic :)
I must say that the thing I appreciated the most was to sound of the closet as it was walking around. As with all your 3D models this month, very cool thing with the animate inanimate household stuff.
It was a bit annoying swapping to small size somehow, maybe have it be modal to toggle small/big on pressing rather than having to keep the button pressed.
Really quite amazing to have those people procedurally generated and dressed/undressed during a Ludum.
Great work!
Great game and I love the story that inspired you to make it! :D Really fun, I enjoyed eating the clothes off the humans.
I think I once managed to clip trough the wall as I triggered the growing as the eating animation was playing.
As I said great game, one of the most fun I played so far! :D
Really unique, creepy and funny. The model of the closet is freaky.
LOL I follow you on twitter now, please if you update this, post it. XDDD
Excellent use of theme, totally silly, fashionable!
I enjoyed this more than I should have.
That is awesome Andy, can't wait to see the finished game :)
Ahah, okay, that was actually very funny! I wish it had an actual ending, I wanted to see all the nice clothes I collected. Oh well :(
Good work anyway! Congrats for this cool entry. :)
Ahaha, really didn't see that coming! It may not be the best game of this jam, but it's definitely one of the best use of the theme and funniest concept xD
It lacks some objectives, and maybe some infiltration with the smaller size which makes us slower, but it's already a huge work for a jam entry!
Well done :)
Lovingly bizarre. The absurdist horror is done really well. Sometimes it was hard to tell whether a wall parallel with the direction of the camera had a door in it or not.
The name is great and awesome execution! Too bad you didn't finish it. Really, really funny. I missed, of course, an ending but also a antagonist. I suggest to you to put the "Fashion Police" to spice things up. Solid entry, dude!
PS. I hope the game helps you in confronting the fear of "walking closets". Maybe it could help more people with the same fear. :P
Twas fun. It could do with more focus on gameplay, having a clear goal, an enemy (time ? ) and a win/lose outcome. The main player and the eating was awesome though
A fun, silly, comically terrifying game. I've made more indepth comments in this video. https://youtu.be/GvnbFVF6-m4
I'm so glad you made this game! Believe it or not, I was brainstorming a similar game where you play a house with legs and arms that eats people who are having a party in its living room, but I didn't think I could pull it off so I made something else instead. Really happy to see the idea actually executed in some form.
About the game: It's really well made and fun to play but hard (impossible?) to beat because it is not clear what the victory conditions are and there is no indicator about how much time is left.
Again, thank you for making this.
Funny concept! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/3MOSAwxK9LQ
