Re Watch
A downloadable game for Windows
5 minute walking sim with minor psychological horror stuff, mainly went for the eerie look, made in a week so don't expect much, still tried my best.
As for the story, find out yourself :)...
Note:
-minor jumpscare and spooky stuff (it's a horror game)
-Small seizure stuff (TV Static screen zoomed in)
-Nauseating camera (you can't turn them off)
Credit:
-Surgery room by Epilogueronin ( https://skfb.ly/ooVYM )
-Models from Poly Haven and Blend Swap
-Textures from textures.com
-Sounds from freesound.org
-Human model from Mixamo
-Trees generated using MTree addon for blender
V1.2:
-Widescreen support
-Made clicking fully work
-Made default setting be "Balanced" instead of "Ultra" (there is no visible difference yet it is 10fps better)
-Added SSGI because it's a cool tech that takes too much performance (off by default)
-Added VHS put in sound
-Black bars on the side
heres a "trailer" i made for the game (tried uploading as normal but idk if Shorts works on itchio):

Re Watch / buixu
Loved the use of fisheye P.O.V and although short it was really good and felt like it still had alot to give. great atmosphere building as well 10/10.
Thank you, i went in on all atmosphere because i am not that good with story in short time, gonna watch it soon ™
This game's gameplay, specifically the controls is really fascinating to me. It felt way more immersive than any other horror game I've played so far. Though I think the storytelling was neglected, I feel like we didn't get much story here, and I think it's because the developers didn't have much time to come up with something on a bigger scale. I hope you make some kind of a follow up.
I'm very looking forward to your next work <3 (⁀ ⁀ )
All in all this is a great game, I really liked it. Here's my gameplay if you wanna watch it:
Thank you, i think the fish eye and the camera shake adds to the immersion, i only had a week so this is all i got xdd, one day i will make a longer game with this bt currently i already started another big project.
So yeah, thanks for playing and commenting, i will watch the video soon.
Alright, looking forward to that project :)
Nice, creepy game.
很短，你用一周做出来的，还不错。录像带里要是放一些具体画面就好了。看设定像是主角是个绑架犯，绑架过很多女性，所以被困在这个循环中，算作一种惩罚。【喵玛】困在自己的地狱中不断重看录像带，Re Watch（重看）恐怖游戏
yeah there isn't any story YET.
I will definitly be making something like this, that is an interesting story you have there but maybe don't directly tell what the player did, bit of mystery dosen't hurt.
Thank you for playing and making a video about it.
Short and creepy, good work :)
Thank you 👍
Thank you, i will try to do more with this someday...
nice game, i like it
Thank you for playing 👍
This is actually pretty decent for what it is!
Thank you, tried my best in that one week
best horror game I ever played so far
Thank you :)
Was a fun creepy experience! Its a simple game but makes you feel super uneasy. I do like how it ended! Your game is third and starts at 12:33
Thank you for playing, hope you enjoyed the game 👍
Would love to see a longer game with this camera it works well with this kind of horror.
i will definitly be making a longer one with this atmosphere in the future, but that will be way later, thank you 👍
Now, as for the game, I had a blast! I LOVE the flashlight mechanic! I couldn't stop ranting about it in the playthrough lmao The way the shadows messed with your head as you move your cursor around...god it was creepy! Took me waaaaay longer than it should have because I was so scared. XD lmao
So very well done, I REALLY hope you bring this flashlight mechanic to a new title, or make a final version of this project! Best of luck to you! Thanks for the great experience and all your hard work!
i will definitly do something with this aesthetic someday, thanks for playing
Comments below clip:
I didn't find an answer to the question, "What am I doing here?" Perhaps I should re-watch it...?
Nevertheless, I had fun playing this game. You said there wasn't much to it [this game], but I enjoyed it anyway.
Thanks for making it and good luck producing more of this.
Fantastic short game, that I found very interesting.
This looks really cool. I really love the visual and atmosphere you put in here.
This was good for only taking a week to build it did creep me out lol keep up the good work and i hope you like the video
For some reason the main menu buttons aren't showing up for me. O.o So I can't start the game. lol
ah, lovely, can you tell me your resolution? hopefully i can re produce it, but i wont be able to update the game because of the Jam voting that is going on
No problem, totally understand. I was mostly just curious if I was being stupid or if there was an obvious fix. lol XD Native res is 3440x1440. I tried changing my resolution to 2560x1440, then running the game. Still no buttons unfortunately.
3440x1440 is widescreen so that explains that, with the current build it dosen't work but you can play on 1080x1920 resolution :) (idk why i prioritized phone resolution over widescreen), now 2560x1440 should work but i guess unity grabs the 3440x1440 resolution somehow? 2560x1440 works in the editor so i guess that's unity jank, i know the game works in 16:9, at least i tested that xdd, will update when i can

quickly made the change, go in to options to get rid off the grey bars, and sometimes clicking on stuff dosen't work so try clicking on it multiple times
Thank you so much! It worked like a charm! :D I'll be coming out with a video shortly, so I'm excited to see what's in store. XD
Thanks for the confirmation, glad it worked, these UI hickups will always happen, so easy to forget/not check them
Game has a nice eerie atmosphere, could be a beginning of something very good, but for the time spent it is cool.
Here's my take on it for the people who love watching rather than playing.
Have a nice day.
Good short horror game! Looking forward for your next project. wish you enjoy my gameplay... :)
love it thank you :):):)
Short but not bad. Made a video on it.
Ooooh, you made it in to a little TV, neat, should be less nauseating for the viewers, i will watch the video later today, thank you!
Sorry been off Itch.io for a while aaaaa didn’t see your comment until now but heheh yeah I thought I’d throw a lil spin on it c:
It took very long to render but I think it was worth it ;u; hahaha
Nice short game. Good atmosphere and tone. Could maybe make the flashlight just a little bit brighter? It was just scary enough to keep me on edge for most of it. Well done!
Playthrough
thank you 👍
Loved it! Gave me some good scares!!
yo, thank you
Very good game
I will be playing this live today 2/19 around 3-330 =)

I just re watched the vod, thanks for playing, and yes it was mdae to be in a fish eye style, trying out stuff, and the reason it's so short is because i made it in a week, also idk what shadow you were talking about, definitly nothing there xdd, thank you
The game was AMAZING loved it we need MORE!!! I will try to find the shadow for you i could've swore i saw something XD
you don't have to find it, must have been a bug 😏, and thank you, i really went all put on the aesthetic/look of the game... and nothing else... maybe in the future i will make a longer one...
LOVED the style . The flashlight had me seeing ghosts and faces.
Thank you, glad you liked the style
cool
Thank you for playing 👍
BRILLIANT!
Loved the game, by a mile! This was one of the most genuine and raw experiences I've had with an indie game, especially considering the fact that I do not prefer P.T. like games.
The atmosphere was thrilling. The nauseating camera movement, the flashlight and even the shadows created amazing environment. The antagonist was rather less creepy, but at times it got me good. The best parts of the game were definitely the middle section with the other door, which appeared and the ending - still wondering what has happened.
Overall, solid gold! Congrats on the game. Best to you and your future developments HandsomelessKing. Cheers!
Thank you, im glad you like this weird atmosphere thingy, the antagonist was the weaker parts but it is needed for the "story" that is definitly there 👍. Thank you
