The Thing Beneath
"Five teenagers set out for a carefree trip to an abandoned island, planning to camp, drink, and enjoy themselves. But the island hides a dark secret—its desolation is no accident. As night falls, they discover the terrifying reason no one dares to stay there."

Appreciated the fact that this game creates a sense of fear through suspense rather than giving everything out straightaway. The papers on the walls were a nice touch since they gave some clues and helped explain the creature. It made me want to know more about what it was. It’s a good horror game if you enjoy a mysterious story.
Great game. Definitely got some great vibes and be chilling all day.
The worst survival skills with this bunch xD
Nice game
5 Teens, 1 "Abandoned" Island
this one was very good
I died.
Just for you to know...
Thanks.
[update after viewing other's]
I died ... because I didn't know I was supposed to survive ! I assumed the story was totally linear, so I went directly into the arms of the beast without guessing I should be cautious and had a chance to escape !
No sure I would have escaped though because I already did go around the boat and nothing happened ...
Anyway ! 😝
I died too 😭 I gotta play agin to see if there are other endings :3
yes there are ! watch videos below
This game is has unique story.
Hey i really loved the game, it was a crazy trip, that minigame of roling the joint was crazy, keep it up with other games.
Loved his game! You did an awesome job recreating the 80s horror feel.
Hi! Really enjoyed the work you put into this one. The voice acting was a nice addition as well! Definitely worth the time to play!
Fun little game in the best traditions of the slasher-horror genre. Wished it had more lore, but I understand it's a game jam submission. Thanks a lot!
hey guys the concept of this game sounds really cool and fun to explore, so im waiting for a longer version or a sequel
Anyone figured what happened to DJ?
awful, boring
Phenomenal game! I loved it, please give us more! lol Oh.. I made a video :)
Although some of these characters made me furious, this was a great game! Lol Had fun playing this one fully through!
really good 10 out of 10 def a hidden gem
Eu estava lendo os comentários e teve uma pessoa que conseguiu fugir com a April , eu tentei fugir com ela e não consegui dava ou não pra fugir com a April e se dava como?
Gostei muito do jogo e fiz os dois finais dele eu tô desconfiada que aquele que está na roupa do emrgulhador possa ser o DJ possuído por alguma entidade e acabou matando a Stephanie e o Pete e levou a April pra algum lugar , eu gostei dessa temática de ser um filme trash de horror dos anos 80. kevin foi o único que saiu dessa ileso.
Excelente juego con una temática extraordinaria me gusto de principio a fin de como suceden los hechos subi a mi canal también explicando todo lo que sucede.

Nothing better than getting high with friends on a desolate island, lol. The vibe was calm and music was fun. The controls for making the joint were a bit wobbly, but not concerning. Hope there is more to the game or a sequel! Thanks fr the game. See my playthrough here:
very good
.
EW RIDICULOUS.
😋
I quite enjoyed the 80's aesthetics of this but the controls for the "mini game" were a little tricky
i love this game
I really enjoyed playing your game! Haven't played anything quite like this one yet so it was super fun!
