If this game were on Steam, I would have nominated it for the 'Most Innovative Gameplay' award.
I really liked the theme and the story this game told. It's impressive that you managed to get me so immersed with such a short game, so compliments on that! The ending (you know what I mean) came out of nowhere, though, because I didn't see the signs throughout the game. I was so busy with the monitors, that I didn't see it. I think you should really 'force' the player into that direction so that he can see it. I think it would also help if the protagonist reacted to it.
I spend like 5 minutes on my outro discussing the ending XD If you are interested, you can see my Let's play video in the YouTube-link below.
The devs should definetely make sort of a random almost procedural version with no story, and you just answer calls. I would definetely play if there were no jumpscares/creepy shit, but it's cool anyway.
Agree
10 out of 10 awesome game
the screamer at the and was....it just wasn't enough i sited with a stone face i didn't even moved a little but the open door screamer was cool but the end is a moment where i thought "wait? is that a copy from slender but in naked version or rake with a longer body" the only thing in my had the screamer would be better if the toy would be on the tabel the light goes out the toy is away the player is looking around ight is back another cal and when you answer the phone you look at the phone than when you look back to the monitor you see the monster holding the toy or something like that
TRIED MAKING A HORROR GAME FUNNY FOR MY NEWEST VIDEO! LMK WHAT U THINK ❤
up^
WOW the end made me almost jump out of my chair Awesome JOB
Such a sick video
thanks
bro give me a tutorial how i get scared
THIS SCARED THE HELL OUTTA ME!
I SEE YOU
mmm.. do you 😉
Played your game along a bunch of others in this last stream:
Really enjoyed your game.
Big fan! Can't wait for your next work!!
little spoiler !
this game is great, i love this content u made it, thanks to let us playing u game.awesome game, loved the vibes. second game in the vid <3
Could u perhaps make a sandbox mode, or a endless mode? No storyline, just receiving calls and making reports etc, kinda like 911 Operator, would help a lot with replayability.
Game freezes when the house is burning. wtf?
did you look behind you to see the pink bunny nailed to the bulletin board?
God this game was hella good, I wish there was a full version someday! I liked that it actually picks up on your mic, the decisions you have to make, and the humor at the beginning of the game!
i love the way it opens, bleeding straight on any pictures of puppies you have on your browser lmao
Wow this game was so well done, the atmosphere was tense throughout and i loved the idea of being at the dispatch desk not being able to get up and move around, which made me feel helpless which added to the atmosphere. The voice acting was really good also.
Played this short horror game and it was amazing!
I loved the atmosphere build up! IT got to me!
Great job! We need more games like this!!!
Is it possible to click the incident reports or the messages on your inbox? I'm all for lore!
Sadly not but that would make a great addition. I’ll keep that in mind if we push an update!
Ah, I see! I thought I was doing something wrong, LOL. Also I just got the jumpscare of my LIFE ghghg. Good job! Someone was actually near me when I played, didn't even see the jumpscare but heard it and also got jumpscared LOL, especially when I showed them what had jumped out.
(Slight spoiler!)
Also the plushie is so interesting. Right before the jumpscare, I noticed it was missing and I was like ''Wait- ... well this isn't good!'' Turned around and BOOM.
If there are updates, I'll definitely play again :D Short game, but very very well done ^^
Thank you very much for playing, glad you enjoyed it! :))
This game was a masterpiece, I loved the conversations, the choices, the fact that it's replayable, and how you understand the scenario at the end, amazing, keep going !
Loved this game! I would LOVE to see a multi-hour long version or something. The mic integration was wonderful! 1000/10!
Sadly, the voice recognition doesn't work. No mic, no play.
Wait, what is it supposed to do? I just played the game entirely with the options, no voice recognition needed ^^' I don't talk in mics though, so that could just be me djdjdjd
This Game Is Very Cool and Was Pretty Scary. Its The First Game
I would really look forward to this becoming a full game, basically a dispatch simulator with some horror elements. LOVELY, BEAUTIFUL, AND EXCITING. It was immaculate. If you work on expanding it in general it would be wonderful. Good job.
Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words :) As far as a full game goes, I’m definitely considering it!
Good luck on that bro!
When i booted this game up the into made me think i had a virus. Scared me lol
I liked it lmao
Very cool short game! I really enjoyed playing Dispatch and the concept was really fascinating!
nice intro by the way.
This one got me. Well done!
I absolutely loved this game! My only complaint? I wish there was more! It was so good I wanted to keep going. I was so invested in the story. Very well done, I hope to see more one day. Keep up the good work!
This game right here man had me going for real!!!! Like i dont think i ever wanna work a desk job ever AGAIN!!!
