I don't think the mac version works anymore, tried to boot it up but after the opening the screen goes black.

Kuro / buixu

recuerda un poco a Silent Hill, y a la PS1 😊

Awesome game!

For how cute the game looked, I wasn't expecting it to take such a dark turn lol I enjoyed this 👍

Very nice game, PS1 style. unfortunately it lasts too short! If you want to see the Gameplay you can find it on my channel, BEWARE OF SPOILERS!!

The game you created was very interesting!I love these retro-inspired horror games!I'd love to see you add Japanese sometime!

The Linux version didn't work. I launched the Windows version through the WINE interpreter. But it is okay, it is much more common than it seems. Usually who makes games on Windows to Linux some odd happens, the engine does not convert correctly. It is normal. It is good game, I wait to try gama version (laughs). I was curious about that pedestal outside shrine. There was something is missing. 

Okay, no more chit-chat your work is the first part at very begin.

A greetings to vmu_

¡Que alguien me diga quien es Kuro! - Kuro | Kompachi

Es un buen juego, no imagine el final. Realmente tienes mi apoyo.

Ótima escolha de estilo de gráfico.

Uma história curta mas com algo sombriu por trás. Obrigada por se dedidarem a esse projeto.

Obs.: não gostei tando da movimentação ;-;

Short and sweet definitely something to try if you have 15 minutes or so...

I like the style of this game, definitely the biggest highlight of the game.

short, simple, bittersweet

I love it!!! Great job!! 

thank you so much! ( ̄y▽ ̄)╭ Ohohoho.....

Played this on the channel. Loved the music, the design and the overall atmosphere of the game. Story was pretty good too

Really like the art style of this game, plus it had an oddly comforting ending

this was a delightful little treat! i really enjoyed the aesthetic a lot. great work here, kudos!

I like how the really cool art style and gameplay :) 10/10.

Super cool game but it was a bit difficult to play with keyboard :o :) 

Koriko likes Atmosphere and storytelling. Koriko is no scared but unsettled by game. Koriko finds Kuro cute. Koriko Approves game (^∀^)

just found this game yesterday and i really loved it! the plot was amazing, this game didn't scare me but this game was really interesting and your style is really cool! i gonna play your last new game too because it's looks really interesting too, ty for your games and gl <3

The characters were deformed and cute, but the atmosphere was solid and still and scary.
I like the early Resident Evil-like controls and fixed camera that make this game more immersive.
The way the story unfolded (especially the part where you get the magic circle parts) was creepy and scary, nya~!

Thank you for playing all of my games ( ̄y▽ ̄)╭ Ohohoho.....
nya~!

Good Story, Artstyle and Gameplay!

actually sick game 10/10. made me piss myself but in a fun way.

Great narrative here. Really nice game!

Very fun game

Un jueguito Indie cortito medio turbio. La verdad que esta bueno para pasar el rato. Ademas, tiene sus meritos siendo que fue hecho en un solo mes y se ve bastante bien!

this was fun!! really great atmosphere, really loved the pretty space with the piano music... i wanted to be there... the contrast between the cute character models and the dark theme is funny but without really taking from the atmosphere. definitely enjoyed this, also appreciated the silent hill references :)

A well done little short horror game! I was spooked by the atmosphere and I felt danger in every dark corner! <3 Nice job!


This was really well done! Though I felt that the dialogue boxes were a bit touchy. Maybe add a slight delay when progressing into the next line so I dont skip all of the text. (I also really liked how the key and the body parts spin around in all directions in the corner.)

un juego hermoso con una historia muy interesante. los controles tanque del psx bien logrados y sin ser molestos. una joya que se debe jugar 

a really cute game! 

I love the art style and atmosphere! Very solid little game all around. A more specific trigger warning might not be a bad idea though, given the ending.

This game was dope man. From the art style to the audio design it was super good. I hope you make more like this because this was a joy to play!

Cool spooky game, very nice 3d art ->

I had a lot of fun with it, good work :)

Fun game! The gameplay definitely felt like something I would have played on a ps1. Found the little easter egg.

I ran into a pretty big issue after leaving the house(shrine?) early. It forced me to restart the game but that isn't really the big issue of this game for me.

This game completely drops any and all subtlety at a certain point in the game just to tell us EXACTLY what has happened. While I'm not saying that things should be left to interpretation, I am saying that explicitly explaining the story through character dialogue is very odd and comes across inauthentic. 

The story isn't convoluted but the way characters are introduced and the way they drop exposition-bombs on the player totally crushes any atmosphere that was built.

It's worth playing this game, definitely. The art-style and characters are deceptively cute. It just felt like this game was a bit rushed in the end. 

Thanks for making games!

Welp, im drowned (fell from map) in tv world, i choosed this my ending.

It doesn’t work on MacOS 12.2.1 unfortunately

What a well-made short game. Love the overall aestethic. Thanks for this!
