How To Play

Progress the text using the "Space" or "Enter" keys.

At certain spots in the game you are prompted to type something into the chat box's input field. What you're supposed to type is visible in gray letters. What you are currently typing will be overlaid in black letters. If you've typed everything correctly, then your black text should overlay the gray text perfectly. Press "Enter" or klick the send button on the right hand side of the text box to send your message. If you're unable to send your message then you haven't typed the message correctly. Make sure not to forget any easy to miss dots and commas.

About The Game

One night, Amy receives an invitation to a group chat set up by some of her former classmates. Its purpose is to reconnect after all these years. But soon more and more disturbing facts about Amy's classmates are revealed, and Amy begins to fear that the people she's texting with may not be her classmates after all.

wow... what a lousy experience.

what's the point of letting the player type if they can't even get to say what they actually want to? just label it as a visual novel with no options, just a swipe click, and move on. 

not only a waste of time, but tedious and quite frankly irritating.

out of all the quick "horror games" i've played, this was pissing me off to the point i made an account just to post this.

Awesome game, I loved almost every part of it! Would have loved to insult said ghosts but that would ruin the story. Again, really enjoyable game!

That was a great story, I wanted to say a lot of bad things to them but I couldn't xd, here is my gameplay if anyone wants to see it

please let me say fuck you

Amy should have used EmptyChat.

ngl why they kinda... good game tho! just wish there were more choices :3

(+1)

sos..

(+6)

That was.. morbid.

This is pretty good, albeit a bit.. uh- Lacking in choices. Personally, I would not write like that, and the fact I have to write the messages just drags it on. Cool idea and interesting story, but- Not pulled off the best? The game is incredibly high quality and free at that, just a bit less fun toward certain audiences or gamers I suppose.

HOWEVER SUPER GOOD GAME AGAIN AND SPOOPY >:DD

(+2)

This is honestly a great little game. It's 100% a visual novel with no choices so I can see why some people might have issues with it but it's a completely free experience so I can't imagine why there's so much hate for it in Steam reviews.

The story is a bit predictable and our main character is a bit of a bore so I don't know why the things in this game have to happen to her. Without going into spoilers, I'll just say that it doesn't seem like she would be a target for this kind of thing because it's a bit inconsistent with prior victims.

Still a good game though and the music is great.

Thanks for making games.

Agreed

YOU’RE LIKE KIDDING?!?!? THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES I HAVE EVER PLAYED HERE ON ITCH OMG IT HAD ME SHAKIN IN MA BOOTS THE WHOLE TIME holy fuck this was amazing kudos 2 u man

(+4)

This game is really scary, mostly cause I've been randomly invited to group chats like this before, very creepy vibes.

I do love the immersion, it really felt that I was Amy at that moment, when the "classmates" all said weird stuff in the chat room, I felt a sense of dread when they mentioned that they knew Amy's location.

(+3)

THIS WAS SO SCARY but sooo good!!!

(+3)

i just played this AND THE AMOUNT OF TIMES MY JAW DROPPED WHILE I WAS READING THE MESSAGES. the final cg scared me so much i took off my headphones expecting a jumpscare :sob:

THIS GAME IS SO SCARY BUT I LOVED IT 10/10

(+2)

i read the title as "Kir-kir" like the car sound

(+3)

Yeah but FeedVid Live tho..

(+1)

FeedVid?

(+1)

yea its another horror game kinda like this, but more detailed and scary

Oh thanks

(+2)

This was really really well done!! It had great mood and immersion, and I legitimately felt sick when the "classmates" started being, well to avoid spoilers, weird. As someone else said, it felt like I was living a chatroom creepypasta! Will definitely be looking out for whatever else you guys make!!!

(+2)

I absolutely loved this! The typing part got me frustrated though because I realized how bad my grammar was lol. But overall I loved this! And i was NOT expecting that ending.

(+1)

I agree, the typing mechanic didn't really add much to the game. Otherwise, it was great.

Nice game and writing

WHAAAAT

(+1)

Wow, this was actually really good! Good job ^__

(+2)

A really nice game that can be finished within 30 minutes, although the typing part often made me frustrated since it won't let me send if there's an error lol.

Hey thank you for your feedback, i'm glad you liked it! 
In our new patch you can skip the typing part :)

Wow!

(+1)

This-- This was so cool. Especially the typing portion, also typing things out made me realize how much I misspell things rip. The premise is so interesting and unique, especially with the trap that the "classmates" laid out because it was so mundane and something I genuinely would also fall for. The music being distorted was also cool and all three of them had wonderful distinct personalities that tied down to who they were intrinsically. I genuinely feel bad for Amy, she didn't deserve the fate she had been given but then again people from those kind of stories are just average normal people who didn't deserve the fate they were given. The immersion was also very well done, especially the typing portion which sucked me into the role of Amy. Great job with this one!!!

Wow, this was incredibly good! Everything worked perfectly, from the mood to the visuals to the music getting progressively more distorted as the chat got weirder and weirder. Also loved how the "classmates" had such distinct personalities and typing styles. The game felt like a legitimately unsettling creepypasta in VN form, and I was sufficiently spooked!

(+1)

omg this was one of the best visual novels i have ever played 687/10

(+1)

ooh this was so good! Actually typing over what Amy was saying was a really good tool for immersion!

(+1)

Gosh this was legitimately so creepy ;; I feel extra bad for amy cause she seemed so happy to connect with old friends at first ;;

Really good job, I liked it a lot!  But yes, as Tristan stated the game ending on an image was kinda confusing. Thank you for the excellent game! 

(+1)

Ok I liked this a lot however the ending screen confuses me. Are we supposed to close the game after that? It just stays there until you close the game.

Yep, the CG where you see Amy sitting at the PC from the back is the final screen. We unfortunately didn't have time for a more elaborate ending but we can hopefully update it in the near future ^^

Interesting
