I know it was probably not intended but this game was so disorienting for me that I puked after playing for 30 mins. I have to say that it did live up to it's name though. I'm afraid I'll never finish your game because of it but it was fun while it lasted.
i also would like to make a modpack that adds in a little more scary content and TONS of lore with a Gnawing Lady CURSED amount of psychological horror
but i don't know how to code in the software you use
damn its fuckin crazy i was so scared man i actually feeled like im cursed this imaginary game is dope af is there any way i can contact you cuz ima planning to make only os based horror game i havent make any i wanna learn it
The entire game has the uncanny valley feeling, I felt cursed after playing, I was wondering why I was hearing gnawing, I thought I was going crazy. This was awesome
Sorry for the late answer & Thanks a lot! If you felt cursed then I'm really happy with the result :D (.gmmod models were made with GameMakerModelCreator)
I played this so long ago!! I remember failing the first time because I didn't do the ritual in the right order. Then, I wanted to do it in the perfect order, but the email itself wasn't in the "right" order completely :P (turns out, it doesn't matter and I got the "good" ending). Really love the graphics and story, it gives me nostalgia back when playing Imscared on Gamejolt as a little, free indie game :)
I played this to kick off my Bloodcurdling Barrage in which I will be posting daily horror game videos for all of October. Really enjoyed it. Lots of little touches to show how much effort and love went into it and it was actually creepy. Well done
Great, creepy experience! The email portion is definitely the most unsettling part, but being able to look out the windows was a great way to build tension as well.
Loved the art style & loved the theme of the game. How creepy was it that it was starring at you from outside the entire time? I knew it was going to come in eventually. But that feeling of not knowing when was haunting me the entire time. Great little game & a very talented implementation of a game within a game!
This game took me back. Discomfort is just that; uncomfortable. The silence is deafening, as if there are eyes on you from the start. Short, but very effective.

how da freak do i full screen
You toggle that on the start screen (or by pressing ALT+ENTER)
I haven't actually ran this game, but how did you make it do the gnawing on your desktop? I'm honestly curious and want to know.
There's no such thing as a gnawing sound being played while the game's closed.
...Right?
not sure actually, it might just be suggestive enough that it tricks your brain into hearing things
i played it and have nightmares after playing the game p.s it was 1;00 in the moring when i played it
Glad to hear that :D
played this but didn't hear gnawing on my desktop is there a way to fix that?
You were lucky
hello im an 8 yr old and i want this game but i dont wannna hear sounds so im not gonna download it
It's been 7 months: Be strong now, you can do it!
my PC said that the compressed .zip file can damage my computer. so everything about it is cursed
Don’t worry, the .exe is clean from viruses! It just comes with a curse
maybe my computer needs updating
just sayin'
i also would like to make a modpack that adds in a little more scary content and TONS of lore with a Gnawing Lady CURSED amount of psychological horror
but i don't know how to code in the software you use
how do you get rid of the gnawing please
Oh you don't
why is it there forever?
damn its fuckin crazy i was so scared man i actually feeled like im cursed this imaginary game is dope af is there any way i can contact you cuz ima planning to make only os based horror game i havent make any i wanna learn it
THE CREATOR REPLYED TO MY COMMENT (:

Also btw, what did you use to make the models?
Sorry for the late answer & Thanks a lot! If you felt cursed then I'm really happy with the result :D

You can select that on the start screen (or by pressing ALT+ENTER)

Thanks a lot, glad to hear the game triggered some nostalgia :) Also, NEED.net is awful and should be marked as spam indeed...
Do I have to restart me desktop to get rid of the gnawing sounds?
That won't do, you've been cursed

Thanks :D
If you did wrong, then Yes there's a way to do it right!

Hello! How did u achieve this retro style graphic?
I just make a very small game and then I stretch the hell out of it (oh and there's also a color limiter involved in this one)
-Made a Video.
"short and spoopy. made me feel a little bit uneasy."
<3 Hope you had fun!
Eerie atmosphere complemented by a wonderfully chunky visual style reminiscent of early Freescape games - loved it!
Thank you, kindly!
played your game in an indie romp, hope you enjoy. not sure if I solved the puzzle right though as she done did the murder on my face twice
your game starts at 14:05
I was so confused. I somehow got stuck on the idea that it needed to be my house instead of my finger, but I got there eventually.

cool and creepy little game! I like the whole pixelated style.

Neat little experience!

Bro this game really made me feel very uneasy. If that is what you were going for you did an amazing job!
Really glad to hear that, that's what Discomfort wanted to do!
Thanks for playing and liking the game :)
Great game, Loved the art style... Here is my speedrun
Woah, that was... Fast! Thanks a lot for doing something like this!

There's a way to "do right", check again those pesky NEED.NET emails...

This made me feel super discomforted. I've been cursed now.
Yes, you are! Thanks a lot for playing Discomfort :)
Very creepy and unsettling game. Love the old school vibes! Very good experience! Here's my playthrough:

Hey, I'm glad the game made you uncomfortable :D Thanks a lot for playing!
Nice game. I like the graphic style. The controls are a little wonky.
Hey, thanks :) You can switch controls at the beginning, try playing with your mouse!
Interesting fun!
Thanks for playing! Glad you had fun :)
