"There are monsters out there, but they're not always what you think"
"The Peephole" is a short survival horror game. You play as a missing boy in the 1980s. You find yourself in a cabin in the middle of the night. You look through a peephole and a window to spot monsters. To scare away the monsters you use a radio.
This game is best played with keyboard, mouse, and headphones. It does support using a gamepad.
- The game doesn't contain any story but might hint at lore. The story might get more explained as development goes on.
- The genre of the game is "Survival horror". It is similar to games like Five Nights At Freddy's™.
- The art style is retro pixel art textures with high-resolution normal maps. Making the pixel art look like it's dusty or old.
