"It's October 31, follow Jake as he gets ready for a killer Halloween party."

Jake's Halloween Night is a short horror game inspired by old slasher movies, that at the same time, makes a bit of fun of said genre.

The project originally started, developed, and finished in October 2021 as a personal challenge, but now comes back remastered with new art, improved graphics, and lots of new secrets.

  • Pixel art visuals.
  • Drawn cutscenes and objects.
  • Story-driven with environmental storytelling.

If you liked the game, please don't forget to rate it!

This was pretty fun. I liked the little pieces of backstory that were sprinkled throughout the game. I ended up finding all 3 endings.

I was a little worried the third ending would be a bit too hard to find, so I'm relieved to know that someone did find it.

AMAZING GAME THAT I ENJOYED EVERY SECOND WHEN PLAYING!! The atmosphere and the environment builds everything up super well and the puzzles arent too difficult but they arent boring either! Theres so much foreshadowing but the twist STILL PUNCHES YOU IN THE GUT. Dont look for the twist tho. Forget about my comment entirelt~ only remember that this is a good game~ experience it entirely for urself >:3

LOVE this game, it was a delight to play and to replay! Exploring the environment was so fun, and the dialogue cracked me up! The twist at the end managed to get me the first time I played, too, and the two different endings is a lovely touch. Wonderful game to play for spooky month! Will be playing it again soon :)

I FORGOT TO POST THIS WHEN I PLAYED IT. Loved the game!

that was an amazing twist that I actually didn't see coming, the art is really nice, and *wow* the sudden atmosphere shift, *chef's kiss* perfection.

A good game for this spooky season, pretty solid short story and a good character to play as. It bugged at the end I think...

Thank you for playing! 

It did bug at the credits scene but I am not sure why, that never happened through the testing, but I'll keep an eye open in case it happens again.
