A downloadable game for Windows

About:

My Happy Place is a short walking simulator made for the Liminal Space Jam in 4 days. The jam lasted a month, but I forgot it existed so I was only able to throw a small experience together, this is especially clear with the level of polish seen... it's not incredible but it's playable.

The player watches old recordings from their (strangely familiar?) dreams, starting from what seems to be a normal day in the streets of your home town...


Controls: (Very Complicated)

WASD - Movement

Mouse Movement - Look

Post-Release Notes:

.I just realised the "Exit" button doesn't even work (I can't update and change it, as this is for a game jam).

.After watching hydraxsx on YouTube play this, the UI seems to be zoomed in/cut off so they weren't able to see some of the text.

.This game sucks, enjoy :)

Om- For half of the game I though Someone  SOMETHING was going to just jump out of the shadows and jumpscare me. This game kinda nailed the scary counter

It's called NapTime, I found in on a website called MixKit.

sorry for late reply, ty so much and i'm happy i found out about this little game from alphaoxtrot :)

(+2)

can you make an html5 port?

that would have been a good idea, especially for the game jam. Although I've left this game as it was since released. If I ever were to extend it then I will release a web version with it. There might be a new similar project on the way very soon though..

Was quite an interesting game. Actually sent shivers down my spine as I played!! I have enjoyed playing this, or more like just walking through :)

This was some of the best liminal horror I've ever seen. Reminds me of nightmares I had as a kid. Will you be requiring any voice actors for future projects?

Thank you, I've recently been trying Unreal Engine 5 for another liminal game (not sure if it's actually going anywhere yet though), so voice acting would definitely help immersion. Although I don't have any budget to pay with and I don't want to use someone's talent without them getting profit. Thanks for the offer though, if I ever start work on a big project I'll keep you in mind if you want.

(+1)

No problem I completely understand. Thank you very much! Can't wait to see what you come up with next!

(+1)

Fourth in the line up. A short weird walking sim. Good feel, no glitches. I can't help but wonder... Why Stronk Chicken. What did we do? While it is full of my old foe invisible wall, it's an interesting trip. Good work keep it up.

it does justice to a horror game, because it's scary, the environments are very atmospheric, and manage to cause strange sensations, I thought it was cool🤙

Your game has bad reviews on VirusTotal a scanning website that scans files for malware, etc.

(+2)

I searched the URL on the website and it didn't show anything wrong?

(+1)

Do you got discord, maybe we can discuss this easier i'm not active here lol

(+1)

Hey nice game made a video on it. Also can ya tell me the name of the music used in this game especially this the black door scene as in my thumbnail.
(+2)

The music for that level is "Relax Beat" by Arulo, and I downloaded it from Mixkit: https://mixkit.co/free-stock-music/

Where is the music for the playground area with the houses on the hills?

(+1)

I will be playing this live tomorrow 2/6 around 630-7 PM EST.
