Lost & Found is a short horror game. The main character is a 5-year-old boy named Peter, who lives with his grandmother in a lonely cabin, his only pasttime being studying nature and observing a grey rabbit that lives under his window. Peter's life has always been monotone, but safe. But when he finds clues to the reason of his parents' death, he sets off in a horrific adventure in the world outside his home. And all along, the destiny of the familiar rabbit is connected to his decisions...

This short game is estimated to take about 10 or 15 minutes to play, with two alternate endings and some side mysteries apart from the main plot.

I checked them and they worked fine for me... do you mean that the RTP qualifications are mixed?

The game works fine for me. It's cool and the atmosphere is spooky, making it really feel like a horror game. It's very short, but I discovered the other ending as well, which takes a bit more time to complete. Nice job on the game! :)

I just finished the game, It's a nice short game you made there, although it had a couple of bugs here and there. I really liked your choice of BGM and SE's in the game =]

Here are the bugs caught btw:

- Beginning bedroom, checking the closet twice gives an "Unable to find: Audio/ME/Fanfare" error.

- Switch Puzzle: Turned the switches, but one of them was kinda damaged. the switch kept turning up and down in an infinite manner. was this just my computer acting up or..? anyway, you should check it out if you have some time =]

 

Update!

 

Found both endings! I got the good ending on my first go, which is why it was much harder to find the bad ending after knowing the secret in the game =P

Thank you everybody for playing this game. I will correct those problems you said there was. The switch was not broken it was meant to be like that.

Nice that you found both endings :)

I finally found the good ending as well! It was quite hard to find, but it was nice to see that little end scene with the girl. :)

I enjoyed it! However, one thing that kind of bothered me was how the boy picked up literally everything without reason... lol. I kept wondering, "Why in the world did he decide to just pick up a pickaxe? And now a log?" It would have been a bit better if it gave the option to pick them up, since I usually just use the action key on everything to observe it.

But otherwise, it was pretty cute.

i think i found the bad ending, and i don't quite get it. I mean he finds his grandma then she disapeers and then all the other people turn into his grandma. He wakes up in an insane asylum and his bunny dies. Could someone tell me how to find the good ending.

You can find the good ending if you solve the little switch puzzle in the forest, I think. For that you need to get the water bucket first.

ok thanks i'll try to find both. I found the water bucket and i completed a switch puzzle in a cave. Is this the same puzzle you were talking about. Because i can either do the puzlle to get accros the water or i can use the water bucker instead. is this what you meant. Cause all i get is a refreshing drink whatever that does.

I found the good ending but you still don't know what happened to the grandma or your parents.

I really enjoyed it! The second ending really sold it, and the fact that you really did have to get both endings was nice- some games you don't necessarily want to play all of the endings or you aren't certain if you have gotten them all (or the "true ending").

I don't know if you are willing to release it, but i'd love to read the short story. ^_^

Thank you for everyone who has played this game.

Ronpa, with those items you can get the good ending so there is a reason they are there.

Thanks for playing it. I won't be able to release the short story but nice to see that you liked it.

Jonathay: Sure you can translate it. Could you link it to me when it is done?

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
