"...ERASURE is a punchy, dense work brimming with terrifying implication."

~RE:BIND


Working alone at night .
Only the hum of dozens of deep simulation pods to keep you company.
Something is waiting for you.




Navigate a repurposed hospital, jack-in to simulations and confront a grim future.

Inspired by survival horror titles of old, this short game is designed to evoke that same sense of dread and unease. Fixed camera angles and weird interfaces. Low resolution textures and low poly mesh.

I played this in the Haunted PS1 Demo Disc 2020 and streamed it to my girlfriend.
This game has an interesting mix of slight spookiness and surrealism through virtual reality.

I

release the tunes

Thanks for getting me to listen to this track again

Im stuck.


In the interface menu, i can rotate the selector with the mouse, but when i select something that has more than one  option ie disconnect buffer, i dont know how to move the cursor up and down.


what are the controls?


awesome game so far

Dang!

Mouse wheel up & down move the cursor to different options

A truly freaky and amazingly interesting experience. Upsetting that there will never be a longer version, but I loved this on its own, especially the aesthetics. 9/10

Yo! Thank you!

The more I hear these kinds of comments, the more I'm interested in kicking off another similar project.
Got way less time for that kind of stuff but hey, y'never know.

I'd be super excited to see a similar project!!

Is the Paid Game in this game the Full version or was it the same as it was featured in Haunted PS1 Demo Disc?

Both; The game was released as a whole piece and that same version is on the Demo Disc

So then what is the point of having a price tag on it?

Purely for the sake of having some place for people that enjoy the work to pitch a few bucks at me. I've asked myself the same question but most of the traffic came via HPS1 and as such most people would already have access to the game.

Please understand, it was not meant as a ruse.

Really really liked this experience, every single bit of it. Eager to see what you are working on next. I'm a huge fan of things like system shock, this gave me similar feelings

Best game fron the Haunted PS1 disc, by far

High praise homie, thanks a lot. Look out for the next one, it's got some top-notch devs included.

I love this Game and the Story is very nice. But knows someone the Credit-Song?

I made it myself! Here's a link:

fallen in love! 

so much nostalgia and executed so amazingly.

thank you so very, very much! Glad you dig it.

I tried opening the application on mac and it gave me an error message saying "the app cannot be opened." Is it because this doesn't work on Catalina?

Dang that sucks. I don't have a mac so my test was done by a friend and I'm not sure which OS he had. I'll look into it this week :)

I think I've gotten it worked out if you want to give it another try. Just download the v1.1 build :)

It worked! Thanks! What a cool experience lol

Yeehaw! Thanks for saying something about it, would have never known otherwise. Have a great day!

I was hoping to see more of this game, and was actually disappointed to learn that this is the full game! Not because I thought it was too short, but because I would have loved to see more of it! This might be the most overlooked game in the Demo Disc, featuring some well built up scares and a lot of confusion by the end of it. Gameplay starts at 0:26.

Easily my favorite off of the PS1 horror disk, there wasn't a single second that I was sure about what was going to happen next and by the time it was over I was fucking hungry for more.  I can't even begin to imagine how much time and effort went into making this short little experience as polished and exciting as it is, but I know that whatever you put out next is going to be an instant buy/download from me. 

JEEZ! thanks so much!

The long awaited glitch showcase! lol

Make sure to turn on closed captions

I loved the weird futuristic vibe that you got throughout the game. It would help if you got some insight into what you were supposed to do in the first puzzle (I thought at first I had to align the sounds that the orbs made), but other than that the game was really good.

I run itch.io games and this one turned out to be pretty interesting. Turn on the subtitles to get my commentary :)

This is insane. That skip!

Amazing run!

Thanks! This was a fun one

Gave it a go, interesting - and reminded me of Adventure Time a tiny bit, among other things

Right on! Watching people get confused with a thing I made brings a special kind of joy. Like schadenfreude but friendlier.
