Hi! I just finished playing the demo and really enjoyed it.

The Cambodian night market is such a refreshing setting for a psychological horror game. Instead of relying on familiar horror locations, the game builds tension through atmosphere and everyday routines, which makes the experience feel unique.

I also appreciated the environmental audio and the slow-paced storytelling. They create a constant sense of unease without depending on endless jump scares.

I did encounter a few minor issues during my playthrough, such as the lack of a save system, some interactions that could be a little clearer, and a small visual bug where a bowl remained floating in the air. Nothing that ruined the experience, but I think polishing these aspects would make the final release even stronger. Similar feedback has also been mentioned by other players in the comments, and it's great to see that you're already taking suggestions into account.

I also wrote a full review of the demo on my indie horror magazine:

Thank you for creating such an original project, and I wish you the best with development. I'll definitely keep an eye on the full release. Good luck! 😊

I just finished playing the demo and wanted to say congratulations on creating such an intriguing atmosphere. The visual presentation and especially the sound design are excellent—they really kept me curious about what was behind each elevator door.

Personally, I found the gameplay a little too passive since I was hoping for more interaction and exploration. However, I understand that's the experience you wanted to create, and I respect that artistic choice.

If the full game expands on this concept with more player interaction while keeping the same atmosphere and audio quality, I think it has the potential to become a very memorable psychological horror experience.

Thank you for sharing the demo, and I wish you the best with the full release!

Hi everyone! I’m working on an editorial project focused on reviews and analysis of indie horror games, especially PS1‑style titles: IndieGameInsight.

The site is growing, and I’m looking for collaborators who are passionate about indie horror and interested in:

• writing reviews,
• analyzing short or experimental games,
• suggesting interesting titles,
• contributing to the growth of the project.

No professional experience is required — just passion, consistency, and a genuine interest in exploring the genre.

If anyone is interested, I’d be happy to talk!

Hi! I recently reviewed THE SOUL on IndieGameInsight, focusing on its PS1-style horror design and atmosphere.

There’s a lot of potential in the concept, especially in how tension is built through sound and limited visibility.

Curious to see how the project evolves!

Hey Jordan,

I just published a full review of Don't Stop in Red Wood on IndieGameInsight — a magazine focused on indie horror design analysis.

I covered the atmosphere, the CopperCube engine limitations, the cutscene-driven structure, and the multi-perspective narrative. Gave it a 7/10.

Really enjoyed the PSX aesthetic and the tension you built in the forest sections. Hope it brings some visibility to the game.

• Running the executable as administrator
• Launching from the itch app
• Disabling antivirus/Windows Defender temporarily
• Reinstalling the game
• Updating GPU drivers

Thank you for your help,
