You hear them.

Through the doors.

Following you.

Watching you.

1985.

Do you remember?

----------------------------------------

As you wander the same hallway and go into

the same room repeatedly, you can see things

changing around you... and hear things moving around you.

They're Watching is a game that creates a lot of its horror

through faint sounds, so definitely make sure you wear headphones while playing.

----------------------------------------

For the best experience (recommended), play this game alone

in a dark and quiet room.

-------------------------------------------

UPDATE:

Yes, the game has received a small update. Based on player feedback, the "ending" has been improved. Hopefully this slightly improves your opinion of the game. It is still short, but I think people had more of a problem with how it ended than its length. Please download the updated version of the game below.

Thank you all for playing the game and giving feedback on it. It was very helpful. :)

Wonderful game! Loved the atmosphere - just wondering what is around that corner, awesome work.

Shaishav Pathak2 years ago

Thank you so much!

MrDreaming2 years ago

This was super well done, probably some of the best executed scares i've seen in a while. Tension was amazing and the sounds were not overly excessive. Awesome stuff.

I made a video on your game if you're interested :)

Shaishav Pathak2 years ago

Thanks for playing! :)

Monly on YT2 years ago

Cool game even though some parts had me stuck as there are no ques to lead you to the objective... Other than that it scared the crap out of me and would love to see a fully fledged game!

Check out my playthrough + 2 other games!

MicahSoft Gaming2 years ago

This was a Great Game! Although, I Think it would be great to add a Title Menu, instead of being Plopped right into the game, But Other Than That, The Game was Great!, Keep up The good work! I Did a Video of This Game!

Shaishav Pathak2 years ago

Thanks so much! Nice video! :)

MicahSoft Gaming2 years ago

Thanks! I Really Enjoyed it!

Aces Games2 years ago

Hey there!

Finished your game. If you are interested in more detailed feedback, let me know :)

Shaishav Pathak2 years ago

Thanks for playing! Feedback would be great, thank you. :)

Aces Games2 years ago

Alright. Here goes my personal opinion.

Pros:

All the visuals look really great.
Some of the jumpscares actually got me.
The audio ambience is kinda creepy.
The atmosphere is creepy too.
The blood splatter looks very cool.

Cons:

The game is missing a game menu.
There’s no need for the drawers to be interactable, because there aren't any items in there. It just feels like it's a waste of time opening them.
It was confusing to figure out which types of objects were interactable. Like for example the radio or TV. The crosshair did change when looking at them, but nothing happened on click.
The player movement is very very slow.
Missing footstep SFX.
The game is lacking backstory. The story is pretty thin IMO.
The game felt too much like a trigger game for no reason. It was always something about walking from door 1 to door 2 waiting for new events to happen.
The ending seems a little bit dull.

That’s all I can think of at the moment. I hope you can make use of some of it. Keep it up!

Shaishav Pathak2 years ago

Alright, thanks!

If you like video games, please subscribe and help my channel grow, thanx :)

omnicah2 years ago

Pretty freaky and fun! Reminded me of PT a little.

Shaishav Pathak2 years ago

Thanks for playing! PT was my main inspiration for this.

Fearagen2 years ago

Decided to revisit this game since I deleted the original video. Don't see what is different in the ending though but it was fun to play again.

Shaishav Pathak2 years ago

Thanks, man! Really appreciate it. The ending isn't supposed to be different though, this is a completely linear experience and will be the same always. :)

theantonioruiz3 years ago

This game had me jumping left and right at one point. Also the realistic graphics love it. 😍

Not having music and just sounds makes this game one of my favorite games so far this year. 👌

Here's my playthrough 👇

Shaishav Pathak3 years ago

Wow, thank you so much!

theantonioruiz3 years ago

No problem, my pleasure. 😊

Tried out They're Watching!

Shaishav Pathak3 years ago

Thanks so much! :)

Bloodstalker3 years ago

This game is very good, I got nervous at each step because it was very dark and I couldn't see what was up ahead, the going back all the time to progress made me tired, so I was glad when I opened the door with the code. I love horror games with puzzles and scary atmospheres so this one is absolutely 5 stars from me. Great job.

Shaishav Pathak3 years ago

Thanks so much! I'm really glad you liked it. :)

Bloodstalker3 years ago

No problem ;)

I love some good old fear and death.

Jimfinite3 years ago

Shava59! The atmosphere in this was amazing. The sound FX were so subtle that I ended up scaring myself a few times. The jump scares were definitely earned in this one.

I look forward to your next one!

Shaishav Pathak3 years ago

Thanks so much!

TaintedGames3 years ago

Your game was great.. love it. could you try mine. https://taintedgames.itch.io/last-sto

Stingy Jackie3 years ago

What a surprise! I played it before the update and had to download it mid video recording, but damn! I'm glad I did! Amazing game, amazing set up. And the silence? Masterpiece. I wanted a longer and more elaborate game of this.

Shaishav Pathak3 years ago(+1)

Thanks so much! I don't think I'll make a longer version, but I am currently working on another game that's a lot like it. The story does connect with this game's story, and I'm going to try and explain what some things in the game mean while still not revealing the full lore. Anyway, thanks a lot for playing! :)

Stingy Jackie3 years ago

That sounds really cool! I'll follow you to keep myself updated on your projects! Excellent work =)

Shaishav Pathak3 years ago

Thank you!
