just made this video and mabye you wanna check it out

Really fun! Love the art, the music, the gameplay, everything!

Just finished this game today, it's really good. The concept overall is really fun, and the gameplay does a great job at making you stressed but at the same time requiring full concentration. The glitch effects are all great, and the horror does a great job while only using PNGs. The backdoors and other secrets are also super fun to find, I know you were supposed to get them mainly from another secret, and that fact is true for one of the backdoors, but I had a lot of fun finding the others too. The story is also great, there's a lot of interesting info and details to find, and the ending is simple but effective. I will say again the concentration this game requires of you is super fun, jumping from screen to screen doing everything perfectly is super satisfying, and high score runs are definitely really fun. It's crazy that this amazing game is completely free, would absolutely recommend playing it.

i try playing it but when i press play i cant see anything.

can anybody help with this?

perfect

linux support (I know i can use wine but its slower)

One of the best games that I've ever played for free. I already loved the base idea of having to micromanage playing minigames on your portaboy while worrying about what's happening in the "real world" and having the games degenerate over time so eventually you have no clue what's going on, but the secrets elevate this game to something really special. I think that this game does secrets to perfection. They're not so obvious that any little timmy can get them right away, but there are enough clues with the gallery so that little timmy can eventually catch on. I love how as you get deeper into the secrets the game gets more and more unsettling. Overall super phenomenal stuff. 

This was a cool ass game man! Loved the artstyle, definitely gonna check out more of your stuff if they're at this level of quality! 👏👏👏

Really scary and AWESOMEE!!!

I got to the end, It was one of the best gameboy style character horror, the music was amazing and the graphics and games were fun, from being a game critice for 7yrs i give this game a 10/10, my reasons you ask? 1. Graphics were good, 2. music original and catchy with the beat (btw i also mastered in music and arts), 3. concept and lore was amazing, and I really enjoy playing your games, especially the garfield horror one. keep making more games (: i'd love to play more.

i explored everything but i still cant figure out what the 4 digit numbers that flash in the last images in the gallery mean. still, I love bait and switch horror games like this one and portaboy does it well. ❤️

you have to type the numbers in on the screens that show you the numbers and it shows you secret images

Thanks! <3

didn't do too well, I kept running out of ammo LOL but the replay ability is great. 

[BIG SHOT] gam

Witziges Wario-ware like spiel, was natürlich auf dauer etwas stressiger wird und interessante Effekte beinhaltet. Ich hätte mir aber tatsächlich noch etwas mehr abwechslung bei den Minispielen gewünscht, auch wenn diese natürlich nur ablenken sollen

Anyone knows if hitting the red triangle before the BG changes does anything? I don't think it's needed for the true ending, but I still hit it every time.

It's a time skip from around 7 to 15.

Hey, Creator for some reason when I start or run the game it gets stuck on this part. this has never happened before. I'm on Chromebook so I'm playing web version. The Gui also bugs out.

I'm NOT the owner here, but this also happens the same on chrome on android. Possibly due to how chrome work differently.

However, It works perfectly fine on Mozilla Firefox.


Try using Firefox for chromebooks. You may find the download for it here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browsers/chromebook/

lmk if it works kthxbye

I cant get firefox bc its a school chromebook.

then there is nothing I can do about it.


Sorry.
