When trying to install through the itch client I get an error "Cannot read property 'build' of undefined" and can't install it.

That makes this impossible to play on a Steam Deck, because installing through the itch client is the only practical way I've found to play itch games on a Steam Deck.

Is there any chance that installing though the itch client could be fixed?

Hi sorry! I'll try to fix that issue. Idk what could be causing it and I don't have a steam deck to try it on, but I'll try to see what I could do. Also sorry for the late-ish response too

ok i fixed it, i thought it was kinda complex to but it wasn't and was just me being dumb lol, sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for bringing it to my attention :))

check out this perfect hand-drawed ending~

btw, nice game! look forward to extended content

Thanks for playing!! Very cool drawings too, im glad you enjoyed it

Atmosphere in this game was great. I went and checked out Damp too. Have you played the old ps1 King's Field games? If not, they'd definitely be right up your alley if you can find them.

I have! Iove kings field and shadow tower too. Damp was inspired by shadow tower and daggerfall heavily. Thanks for playing this and also thanks for playing my old bad game lol.

Legit every mask I try whenever 'it' shows up gets me killed. It showed me a 'Teary eyed expression', I picked Happy, died, went down the list and it seemed to always kill me regardless of what mask I grab, since the note only states to 'Hold the mask', I click the mask and hold it, whether over its face or not, and still die. Same with if it shows up with literally no face and is just a hole for a face, I tried the :l face and the blank face, still die.

Is this beatable???

It is beatable, just a bit tight with the timing and its not explained that well, Im sorry. You probably just were too late and when picking up the mask and holding it. There's a sound que of a slithering sound when he's in the room, and you have enough time to turn around fumble with the masks, get the right one, and hold it on his face until he leaves. If the timing is right, you have the right mask, and you still die then it might bug that I don't know of. I'll try and do some further testing to see if I can find out of it is.

It definitely wasn't due to being too late, I'd grab what looks like the opposite mask and wave it over its face ASAP and still die. :L But as said, I tried Every single mask, believe me, I replayed the game and had died probably around 15 times just to verify if I could find the right mask for the same face or not.

Oh I'm really sorry about that :( I still haven't found a cause for it, and everything is working fine on my end. If you could send a video of the problem then that would help a lot, you don't have too if it's too much work. You could dm it to me on twitter if you do. :>

I recommend checking out Alpha Beta Gamer's YouTube channel for a playthrough on this game to check if you might be doing something wrong.

There is no indicator for knocking on the door :(

Ive updated the game to make the sound ques, like the knocking, louder. Added a tip for when to hide, objective list at the top left corner when you're done cleaning and are picking up your stuff to leave, and made it so the cursor highlights when over an object you can interact with. The sound ques were there, I just made them quiet so sorry about that, but hopefully they are a bit more noticeable now. also did some small balancing changes and made of the faces more obvious to tell what emotion it is.

I still am unsure what is the knocking sound, because I couldn't hear anything immediately before the door opens

I only had problem with the door because it was only issue I got. For examle I heard knocking but nothing happened. Or the head appeared along with the lady from the door so I was defendless. I will try now and see if its better.

there's 3 knocking sounds, the first being 1 knock, 2nd being 2, and 3rd being 3. after the 3rd, the door opens. there is a lot of time in-between that, so if the face appears you can get up, deal with him, and go back to hide again.

I really have to ask, how do you avoid the woman at the door, I tried hiding it, but It didn't work

You have to hide before she opens the door, there's knocking sound ques that will let you know how close she is go opening the door. sorry I should've explained that and a lot of other things better in the game

Honestly I couldn't hear the knocking sound too well, maybe make a better indicator for that?
