About Almost Home Now

A little girl finds herself having to walk home alone in the middle of the night.
The empty roads seem a tad more ominous than usual.

Control the protagonist in this 3rd-person fixed-camera horror game.
Navigate your way through 4 distinct-themed areas as they get progressively more disturbing.
At the same time, a stalker inches closer and closer.

Quiet residential streets...
Eerie park paths...
Creepy woods trail...
And just outside of the home, where things take an unexpected turn...

Can you make sure the girl gets home safe and sound?

Only a few minutes long but very atmospheric and eerie. The graphics are really lovely and the usage of camera angles for the sake of enhancing the horror by involving the stalker's perspective is incredibly executed! Finally the paranoia is justified for once! I actually died! I hope this dev(s) will release more games with this style, I'm craving it (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) .ᐟ.ᐟ

IT TOOK ME 12 MINUTES WHAT A WAIST OF TIME

A short game, both nerve-wracking and relatable (excluding the supernatural shenanigans). This situation and the feelings of the protagonist resonate with a lot of people, and make for a short, scary experience. The game is definitely worth a shot!

It looked good at first, especially judging by the images, but as soon as I played... I got disappointed. The controls are weird, and whenever you die (pretty much guaranteed in the first encounter, especially with the controls), you don't really respawn to retry, and if you press "restart" on the esc menu, it just stays in the same screen.

this feeling follows as you grow older as well. unfortunately.
