I like horror games like this, where instead of following normal tropes to get youtube views, it is more ambiguous as to what the conflict even is at first, and it is creepy in a suspenseful way rather than an oh look ooooo spoopy gost did i get u did i get u!?!??? JUMPSCARE!!!! Woah! scary gam!
It hits more like following a disturbing internet mystery of some sort then a generic horror game where they are checking boxes "Ghost or something, check. Haunted house or some other cliche setting, check. jumpscare, check." And the exposition is not in a cheap scare or a *main character dies the end*
I did not expect to go down that rabbit hole again, but what an amazing game! I loved everything about it. It is so unsettling and the presentation is top tier.
I would love an extended version with this type of gameplay, a GeoGuessr - Google Maps type horror game. All I can say is that this game is brilliant!
so there is a plane called mh370 that fly at march 8 2014 suddenly disappeared, some parts of mh370 were founded at july 29 15, the bulk of the aircraft is not founded yet, mysteriously if u put the cords I commented at google maps u can see a plane (crashed or not idk) in the middle of south west of Cambodia, Thoery says that its mh370, welp idk
say you're at a nightclub and tragically a dude comes in with a gun and kills (almost) everyone except you. in that club, your friend dies. there is a phenomenon where people feel as if "it should have been them" instead of your friend, and it leaves people with horrible "guilt" that everyone died but they didnt.
btw this may be wrong in some places because this is my interpretation of it so feel free to correct me.
Very much enjoyed the game and it's plot. I was ready to catch a dead body or something but I enjoyed everything adding on and the glitches, wished it was longer now.
ok i need help.... i am trying to download it but can't because each time it finished downloading it says i have to trust MapFriend.exe to actually play it can someone help and tell me what i Gatta do?
Hey! I'm trying to play on Linux but every time I start the game there's nothing except for the little guy, it seems like it's not rendering anything else except for that. What can i do?
the shaders i'm using don't seem to running with your virtual machine I think. make sure you have directx and everything installed. it might simply not work on linux, sorry :(
So this will sound dumb, but I can only find 2 explore orbs, one from the forest, and one from the lake, but not from parking lot. I explored the map for like 20 minuets and can't find it. help?
Alright very unique idea and I'm sure that the coordinates show a little more with some digging. Quiet creeping waiting for something to happen was good. Unfolding the story was cool too. Here's my playthrough with some other short indie games -
Do not read this until you have reached the end of the game.
I looked up the coordinates at the end. The plane crash is actually real, and visible on Google Maps. There is no Wikipedia article geotagged with the coordinates of the plane, but there is a stub article on the wildlife sanctuary where the crash happened. The article on the wildlife sanctuary does not reference the crash at all.

(u guys know about this right?)
What's the story? I can't find it on google. Can you explain?
so there is a plane called mh370 that fly at march 8 2014 suddenly disappeared, some parts of mh370 were founded at july 29 15, the bulk of the aircraft is not founded yet, mysteriously if u put the cords I commented at google maps u can see a plane (crashed or not idk) in the middle of south west of Cambodia, Thoery says that its mh370, welp idk
Wow, I feel like The last photo in game is inside the plane
Also I don't understand why the little fella (Map friend) is try to say that you were supposed to die
Probably Survivors Guilt
Heres my understanding of it:
say you're at a nightclub and tragically a dude comes in with a gun and kills (almost) everyone except you. in that club, your friend dies. there is a phenomenon where people feel as if "it should have been them" instead of your friend, and it leaves people with horrible "guilt" that everyone died but they didnt.
btw this may be wrong in some places because this is my interpretation of it so feel free to correct me.
It did catch me off guard, but when I saw the last image I knew it felt familiar to me

It would be cool if it had a longer story, 1st game of video
