Thank you so much for letting me know this exists Jim. I haven't been so interested in a game in a while and if you hadn't done this extra Jimquisition, I wouldn't have ever learned about this amazing game.

Between personal horror-film-esque experiences and the Stephen King like dreams I have, I don't play horror games. This is as close to a reason why I don't sleep much. A therapist asked me to describe my dreams at one point and I straight up lied my ass off because I didn't want to be committed. I'm not dangerous just because my dreams are somewhere between Lovecraft, Giger and King, hell its an adventure when I dare fall asleep.
thankful I am that life isn't governed by Wes Craven rules, else I'd be dead multiple times over.

Thanks for bringing attention to this game Jim, I have been waiting for this since I first heard of it several months ago. Should also mention that Krillbite have the game up on Steam Greenlight as well.

I thought it was cool, I'll probably get it on my new pc some day. Also Jim is pretty entertaining when he's playing video games. He should do some more of it then post it here.
:/ this looks like it's a good idea badly executed. It's too tame and visually drab. It would be better stylized as would many games that feel the need for realism. The 'zany zone' just looks like american McGees alice done badly.
In one word - underwhelming.
Find me a gem is the rough like 13th hour/7th guest. Truly inspired horror. I challenge you jim.

Jim I really do enjoy seeing you take the time to look at an indie project that is trying to do something fun and put it in a new light. I do worry however if this becomes to regular of a thing you may become inundated with a flood of requests by others to promote their material. This is a dangerous slope towards becoming a hollow shill my friend, and why shouldn't the anyone want you Jim Sterling who is quite possibly the most perfect example of a human being living or otherwise to be their spokesperson. When of course it is quite the opposite that is desired. The masses should be falling over themselves to promote you and your ideas for the games industry.
Thank The Flying Spaghetti Monster for you Jim Sterling

One of the artist's has a dev-art page by the name of griffsnuff.
Fantastic work, and a fantastic artist by my standard.
I hope to see this game in full bloom.

I honestly had to go find just a strict game play vid.
Once the teddy bear started moving I could tell this was going to be genuinely creepy, and someone talking over it would ruin it completely.
That said, thank you Jim for showing this to me.
After watching the developer video on youtube, this is officially the first kickstarter game I could actually get excited about.
That was some Paranormal Activity type shit.

I do like the immersion this thing had, even thou some people say the baby had a bit too developed moving skills, I do get it, but you're told to begin with that it is a dream. So if there's a teddy bear talking, I don't really see how his skills couldn't be a bit of an improvement.
I didn´t really like it, it just seems a bit boring and bland. First of all i´m not too excited about the puzzle mechanics, it just seems very uninteresting and the visual design is very predictable. It looks like what you would imagine if you thought of a horror game anno 2013. The biggest problem is that i´m tired of the current horror trends, i would really like to see something different, something fresh. Something that couldn´t be traced back to Hostel, Amnesia or Silent Hill, and why do every horror game go for the exact same tone? It just bores me, i´m a huge fan of horror, but i´ll pass, though it looks very competent, just not my style at all.
That poor teddy...what did he do to deserve almost being drowned in that washing machine?! XD
No plushy deserves that!
Also, nothing is scarier as a kid than having a nightmare of your own house. It's a place you should be safe in, and it turns on you.
Although my worst nightmares weren't of my house, and were scary as shit...
Fortunately, my dreams are now usually awesome and so over-saturated with video game logic that I rarely have any issues with anything in them.
