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!
