THIS HOUSE EATS PEOPLE is a short psx horror game where the player uses a Polaroid camera to take photos of an abandoned farmhouse. The game was created and submitted for the GMTK Game Jam 2024.

After a series of disappearances around an infamous farmhouse, the police take matters into their own hands. They send you to investigate the house and capture photos to aid in the investigation. But what you find there is... hard to explain.

As someone who takes polaroids often, I have to be nitpicky and point out that shaking polaroids does NOT DEVELOP THEM FASTER. Everyone does this and it fills me with righteous indignation!!! It actually slows down the development!!!! They are not like an ink printer that needs to dry. They need to DEVELOP. The best way to speed it up is placing it somewhere warm like your armpit. Not shaking it. AHHHHHH!!!!

ALL I CAME TO DO WAS MY JOB BUT NOW I'VE BEEN EATEN BY A HOUSE!! Youtube Link - 

Although the game isn't very scary, it still gives me the creeps.

Lives up to its name!

Big house.

Big Hunger.

Yum.

Sadly there is no way escaping your fate :(

Neat little horror game!

Fun, short, what more can you want??

bro its all black

good game,, jumpscare when u take picture

Nice stuff

I think I broke the game. took the final photo while still in the attic staircase, and got teleported back on the bedroom, except the room walls and most of the furniture was unloaded.

Oops.

:sob:

I had a lot of fun playing this game.

Nice game and... disturbingly scary

a little on the nose, eh?

pretty neat but i didnt really get spooked or even feel dread might be the lack of ambience sounds, or just me getting bored of these types of games

(+3)

Can we get a downloadable version?

A  good game. I push the statue and try to get the axe, but cannot get into the baseroom.

This is a really nice game but I am unsure what to do to get into the attic. How do I trigger the stairs coming down? Outside of that, this game is really awesome. Would recommend.

Go to the corner and take a picture looking into the room (the stairs should be above you). This will trigger the stairs to drop.

hi  ,, do u want to make a collab??

Short, but very, very well done and super creepy. Loved the camera mechanics. Well done!

if you take a photo of the attic while on the stair you will no-clip through it and the game kind of glitches. other than that the game is nice, i love the style

Very good short game, really liked the camera mechanic and the game game as a whole.

Loved the game!

The controls were a little janky, but overall I enjoyed this game; the ending feels like a very adult R.L. Stine novel come to life; this house is ABSOLUTELY eating everyone. I really enjoyed the visuals up there, and the idea of taking scary photos while ominous things pop up.. Def interested in the upcoming game!~

bom jogo!

doesnt work bruh :

short, simple, and straight to the point. love that in a perfect little horror story. 

this was awesome!

I love the old school graphics and the atmosphere you managed to create with them, I'm not a huge fan of the walk speed however! lol.

Great scary game BEDTIMESTORIES! :O

Cute little game. great aesthetic. A little glitchy, I had my camera snap around 180 degrees pretty often. I actually happened at first on my first aproach to the house, so I thought it was an intended mechanic, where the house was on both sides of the path. Also, I took the picture of the attic looking upwards, so the last cutscene played out a little oddly. Overall, a lot of fun.
