Within The Shadows
A downloadable game for Windows
Within The Shadows is a short horror game where you're tasked with going to bed. Should be simple enough, right?
Story
Inspired by Rinse And Repeat and FNAF, this game takes place in your bedroom. After a long day of work, you're exhausted and ready for bed. However, you must keep your nightlights on. Ever since you were a kid, you've been gravely afraid of the dark. You can't quite remember why you've always had this phobia, but you sure don't want to find out again...

When I go to bed that random person jumps in front of me even when the nightlights are on that little bit bug but anyway game looks good and well made anyway well done!
Thank you for playing and sharing your findings! I can’t seem to reproduce this, unfortunately, but I may look into adjusting the cooldown timer so he doesn’t spawn as fast once the nightlights go off.
I’m thinking you might’ve just gotten bad RNG that round.
