Played through the whole game, was fantastic! Longer and more in depth than most indie horror games i have played. Had a spot of lag or 2 in the game, more my problems for having a potatoe pc though, but glad i pushed through those few spots. Keep up the amazing work and left a follow and subscribe!!
This has to be one of the best games on here ever! I love the story and the ending is perfect actually bringing a tear to my eye! I would love if you made more games so i can make future content with them! Thank you so much for the experience and the game you made!
This game was incredible, detailed and thought provoking! Im still shocked over all the work and time you mustve put in for this! thank you for this masterpiece!
The game was amazing! The fact that you're all by yourself making games like this is shocking and impressive. Can't wait to see more games coming from you!
Honestly, this game is shockingly profound. I think the themes in this game are not only presented in a terrifying way, but the game also deals with how we go through life experiences and deal with our issues allowing us to help others to deal with their problems as well! I loved everything about it!
i’ll have to dig through the music files to find it since its a very old song. But im soon uploding a soundtrack video on my channel JordanCL so keep an eye out!
¡Increíble juego! Los gráficos y la atmosfera que te envuelve simplemente es espectacular. Incluso la historia estuvo muy bien desarrollada. Muy divertido e inverso.
what can i say is was so blown away for how amazing this game was to play like it is number 1 now for my fav indie horror game keep up the good work man really love these games coming from you :) come check out the video i made ;0
I've played the Shopping List before and I'm glad to see the goat Jordan uploading another awesome game! I promise I'll embrace the spooks more when you release another game someday!
I really enjoyed this game! I had high expectations since I played The Shopping List also. Your games seem to never disappoint! I did get stuck on the level with the passcode cause I would say I’m thinking outside the box on that one lol I really enjoyed the game and I liked the music for it as well.
--SPOILERS AHEAD-- Great game! It went a different direction towards the end but I guess I'm fine with that. The Staircase level was phenomenal, I had a constant urge to keep my head down the entire level in fear of Him, only for Him to appear just once. It conveyed strong distress with only 3 assets besides the rough-looking walls and varying levels of light. Bravo, Jordan, bravo!
Can I play this game and put up the video of me playing the game on my gaming channel and put small clips of that video on my other social medias, I will put the game name in post or comments
YO JORDI! This game was HEAT!!! It was eery, unsettling, scary, and most importantly, fun! This game and Shopping List was so fire, I'm quaking in my boots for the next game already, keep up the good work YESSIRR!!!
Excellent game, and I enjoyed Shopping List too. I liked the long, sort of mellow experience and music, at least until you have to pass the game levels. A little bit of challenge/chase and an interesting story/dialogue. The ending was nice too, felt rewarding after finishing. Loved it, thanks for creating :)
This game was incredible, detailed and thought provoking! Im still shocked over all the work and time you mustve put in for this! thank you for this masterpiece!
I enjoyed your game. I liked the journey, and the conclusion was very satisfying. The transition from Jolly Jipper to emotional discomfort to euphoria was well paced.
Oh. my. god. This is definitely one of the BEST games I have ever played on this platform. The audio, the concept, the visuals, absolutely immaculate! I haven't seen such a well-constructed game like this on here for a while! BRAVO
visuals - 10/10
gameplay - 10/10
storyline - 10/10
Following to keep in the loop, please keep up the good work!
goddamn you make some amazing games. i had to stop to remind myself to breathe more than once playing through this. great job on visuals, audio, story and everything in between. one of the best itch games i've experienced.
And once again Jordan you have created a masterpiece with this game. There is something special about your horror games compared to others. The reason why your games stand out to me is because of the brilliant storytelling and the way that you use indirect foreshadowing in order to connect the entire story as a whole once the plot twist is revealed. I have made 322 videos on my channel, and out of all of them, this game is my second favorite video that I've ever made while your previous game "The Shopping List" still remains as my number one even after several months of uploading and playing other games.
The ending of this game really got to me. I don't know if this is what you were truly trying to do but this is what I interpreted based on what I saw: All of the people that were trapped in the video game had been missing for several years, and due to the misery that they've suffered from the entity as well as how much time had passed, they unfortunately developed certain disorders/problems due to the pain that they suffered from. The name of the levels when we had to save the souls is what made that obvious for me: Despair, Dementia, Depression, Grandsons Safe Zone (which would be a sense of belonging). Each of these characters embodied those underlying themes.
Due to Barney spending 10 years trapped in the video game, he had lost all hope that he would ever return home, thus succumbing to his despair.
Carlos had already appeared to have been an old man who was trapped in the game for several years as well. The development of his dementia is due to him relieving the same torture from the entity for all this time, recreating the same memories over and over again. It eventually interfered with the positive memories that he had in order to subconsciously cope with the fact that this is where he will now stay forever.
Dave Owens eventually started to suffer from depression because of all the misery and suffering that he had endured from the entity for so many years. His spirit was broken because he had accepted that he would never be able to go back home, the place that made him happy.
And Leo suffered from not having any sense of belonging; hence the name of the level "Grandson's safe zone." A person's safe zone is where they feel they are belonged. Hence the reason why Leo asked Evan "Did anyone even remember me after I disappeared?" Leo was unsure if he still had a sense of belonging within the hearts of the people that were close to him after all these years of him missing. He felt lost, isolated, and lonely.
These four underlying themes that you conveyed within your game and the way that you had your characters embody them was PHENOMENAL. While The Shopping List is still my favorite game that I've played on my channel so far, there is none that has ever had a better ending than Broken Through. If you want you can skip to the ending of my video roughly at around 23:59. I used very heartwarming background music at the end cause I felt like it would fit with the ending.
You will make it big one day Jordan. Trust me when I tell you this. Don't ever give up. If I'm being completely honest, you make Puppet Combo look like they're overrated.
Wow man, truly, thank you so much. It really means alot to me and im really glad you enjoyed it. And you nailed what it tried to show with the ending! Thank you so much for playing and keep making banger vids bro. Much love.
This was really good! It has really good visuals, an interesting story, a nice soundtrack and simple yet effective gameplay, can't believe this was free! Amazing work!!

i made an account purely to ask for whats the ending music?
soon i’ll upload a soundtrack for the game so keep an eye out! I’ll have to dig through the files to find the song since it’s very old
Really fun experience!!! Especially when I’m delirious and in total darkness! Was not expecting to play for an hour, lol.

The game had a really nice story and I'm not gonna lie. I kinda wish you did charge for the game for how good it is. I recommend getting it on Steam.
Here's my channel for other games I have played. https://www.youtube.com/c/Levont
