Look For Me

Its a such beautiful game. I don't think I would call this one much of a horror game but the environment was stunning! Your game is second and starts at 06:03

THIS ONE MADE ME FEEL LIKE I WAS TRIPPING ON LSD THANKS FOR THE FOREVER NIGHTMARES OF TERROR AND GNOMES! GAME STARTS AT 1:45:17

Okay, this one has me stumped. Almost like how He Keeps Me Here had me stumped. 

Regardless of where I'm currently at mentally with the story of this game, it pulled the same punches as Two Lines, and to some extent, He Keeps Me Here. What I mean by that is how it appears to be nothing special at first until you reach the end of the game. It is at that point that the key ingredient to understanding the game, the main message, is delivered, although cryptic as heck. 

Now, as for my interpretation of the game, I have one that I find to be pretty solid. In my recording of this game, I mention near the end how the somber dialogue of the father to his daughter almost sounded like the father was heading off to war. This theory only became a solid one whenever I took a second closer look at the painting that the daughter made following my recording. If you look closely, it appears as if the father is wearing a Great War uniform or something else of that matter, and has his ACH, Army Combat Helmet, resting under his right arm.

With this, it makes sense how the father has a sad yet comforting tone with his daughter. He knows he probably won't make it back, yet he doesn't want his daughter to know that. He leaves a coin with his daughter as a sort of memento before his parting. Something to remember him by just in case he doesn't return. 

Now, with the coin and strange day/night cycle, I can see that as symbolical of life and death. On one side of the coin, you have the possibility of the father returning: Day. On the other side, you have the unfortunate possibility that the father has perished and will not be returning: Night, with the night side of the coin being shown at the end of the game in what seems to be a warped side profile of the people roaming the small village. At least I think. 

And finally, the painting with the father looking out and the daughter looking in gives me the feeling that the father failed the coin toss. I get this vibe because the daughter had made this painting with her father in it via her imagination as the father said. You play as the father in this painting, which I see as a way of saying that he is not in the real world anymore. He is now just a part of his daughter's imagination. He travels in this painting to where he can look over his daughter, almost like an angel. This part of my theory seems to be a massive stretch, but it's what I got from it, haha.

Anyway, another really good game that was also done in a week. Relax, bruh. You can't be putting out games like this in one week. Nah, I'm kidding. But regardless of how much time you put into the game, it was pulled off very well. Great job!

Really interesting game. I had no idea what to expect.  it felt very cinematic. Great music and sound. . creepy stabby dudes. I liked it a lot :)

Hello, its NaughtyNelly again playing another one of your amazing games, as usual the visuals are simply stunning and the tension and fear levels build up nicely! I am not sure if i understood this all but,the message is amazing and powerful.

The dramatic shifts between the light and dark keep you on your toes, although it is "a walk along the path" style game it is another fantastic experience and a joy to play.

Игра понравилась, даже чутка испугала :)

This game was very interesting.  The story was very in-depth and the voice over was great!  It is a quick game, but pay attention to what is happening and why it's happening if you want to figure out the story.  I'm looking forward to his next releases!

Very cool game. Even with your warning I still walked too far off the path and got stuck :)

But I tried again and made it to the end. Very interesting game. Not sure I fully understand what was going on but I enjoyed it anyways.

A great little surreal horror adventure through a magical forest village. Until someone decides to turn out the lights & send the village crazy.

Matt, I love your mind, & your story telling. Surrealism at it's finest. Can't wait for nemesis!

Another lovely creation especially for a weeks work! Always look forward to your games even though you have a talent for making extremely creepy and horrifying stuff! :P

Another awesome horror game by Matt Reeves! You guys should try it for yourself, see if you get stuck in the same spot as me! Looking forward to updates!

SKIP TO 12:33!!!
