A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Sleep paralysis is a state, during waking up and falling asleep, in which a person is aware but unable to move or speak. During an episode, one may hallucinate (hear, feel, or see things that are not there). Episodes can last anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes.

This is a short experience based off of my own sleep paralysis episode a few years back. Some aspects were obviously tweaked for a more interesting and entertaining gameplay experience. I hope you enjoy :)

Really great game. It was super scary to me, mostly because I am easily spooked by things.

Having experienced sleep paralysis more times than I wished, this game really creeped me out. You did a great job at simulating that helpless feeling you have. Great work! 

Thank you :). I'm glad you enjoyed, and I loved hearing your own stories with sleep paralysis in the video!

I have yet to play the game however I have real life experiences with this since I was a kid. Been over 30 years now. 

This is why I am very interested in playing this game.

I hope you enjoy it :). It's not 100% accurate to my own, but that's because I didn't want to risk it being boring

Thank you :), I'm glad you enjoyed! Apologies for the text cutting off as well, the game engine is kind of funky with that

it's all good!! It was an awsome game with some very good Jumpscares, especially the last one 😱 I gotta say if I had that experience in real life that would probably be it for me 😂

Super scary/spooky experience! Great job developer!

I loved your playthrough of the game, thought it was hilarious. Keep doing what you do too man :). And apologies for the text cutting off at the beginning, the game engine's resolution can vary depending on the pc
