Wouldn't call it horror, I think this has a lot of potential but the analog filter felt very forced and a more digital look could've made it feel more cohesive while staying just as incomprehensible
Being a horror game enthusiast is a bit of a double-edged sword to me as the more games I play, the more familiar the formulas become; this makes experiences predictable and stale. So believe me when I say it was most certainly a treat to come across this title that completely threw me off. I'm always a sucker for the unorthodox and it did not disappoint. Nicely done.
I have a playthrough and brief review in my video, all timestamped accordingly. Enjoy.
this made me genuinely uncomfortable while still greatly entertaining me and making me laugh it was a really strange juxtaposition, but really a fantastic cosmic horror experience, and I loved the point and click and fmv elements, made my skin crawl, fantastic stuff, but I expect nothing but the best from a KIRA joint 🫡
Often, surreal games can be pretty boring, but that’s definitely not the case with Paraedolon! In an impressively short time, it tells a terrifying yet captivating story. I REALLY enjoyed it—bravo!
Very different game. I really enjoyed it. It was very trippy which goes with the drug usage but also trippy on a cosmic horror way. I really enjoyed it!!
This was one of the weirdest game I've ever played and I loved it! Not sure if I was actually seeing aliens or I was just high but I enjoyed every minute of it!
Very interesting but I get the feeling that people prone to motion sickness would probably struggle with this one. I really liked the concept behind it though and this is quite well done for something made in just one week. And, it definitely made me feel like I was on drugs lol, which I'm guessing was intentional. Props to you for your creativity! Your game is the last one on my video and it starts at 34:33
really short btu enjoyable game, however i thought the movement was a little jarring. it was cool, sure, but the way it did a buffer effect really messed with me
KIRA has to be one of my favorite active developers. I love they just come back to itch, drop 10 minutes of heat, and then goes back to killing it on steam, love it

I gave this my VOICE ACTOR special playthrough. Lets just say I came out of this a changed man.....
This game was really weird and really wild. I loved it!

Is the moon and star tattoo supposed to be a reference to something?
Very surreal

Interesting game, good work :)

I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S GOING ON BUT I'M FEELING DIZZY AND THERE ARE METEORS EVERYWHERE I LOOK!! Youtube Link -
A unique style for a game, I liked it but the visuals might be tough for some people (flashing lights and heavy pixellation)

neat short game, but I was not expecting the drug name to be in Estonian (Jumala konserv - God's canned (food?))
really short btu enjoyable game, however i thought the movement was a little jarring. it was cool, sure, but the way it did a buffer effect really messed with me
My brain melted playing this, nice job.
Interesting idea making a google map style game. Keep it up.
