Survive an escalating sleep paralysis encounter using breathing, blinking, and eye contact.
Every mistake brings The Hat Man closer.⏱️ Estimated Demo Playtime: 10–15 Minutes

📌 Important: The demo contains about 15–20% of the full game's content.
💀 The Sleep Paralysis sequence featured in this demo is intentionally designed to be the easiest of the three major encounters planned for the full game.
👁️ Blink Mechanic Tip: Blinking uses a hold-and-release system, not a single click.
The longer you hold the blink button, the longer you can keep your eyes open before a forced blink.
🎮 Sensitivity Tip: Mouse sensitivity defaults to the highest setting.
You can adjust it anytime from the Main Menu or Pause Menu (ESC)
🛠️ Development Update: We're currently focused on final polish, bug fixes, balancing, and small improvements as we prepare for the full launch! (6-30)
💬 Feedback Welcome! If you encounter bugs, balancing issues, or have suggestions, we'd love to hear them. Your feedback helps us deliver the best possible version of The Hat Man at launch.
