Nice game. Really enjoyed it.
Is The House In The Woods coming to Steam?
We might get round to finishing the update at some point. We closed the Mini Goliath Steam account because we stopped trading as a company. Both of us now work on The Baby in Yellow full time so it's hard to find time to finish this unfortunately, as much as I want to.
5/5
Really scary vibes. Love it! <3
