 About

Halloween House is a survival horror/rpg game made for the www.gamebuilder.info
2007 Halloween game competition. My aim was to create a fun little spook game
with an oldschool feel. As the rules stated that the game was to be made from
scratch in less then 2 months I figured I'd go for broke and make an RPG :P
In the end I had to scratch a few of my ideas since there just wasn't enough
time to implement them. Even though it was hard work I really loved doing it and
I'm pleased with the results. Hope you will like it too.

Oh, and please play it in fullscreen. It really was designed for it.
