HALLS v0.3 – How Far Will You Go?

DISCLAIMER: This game contains sudden jumpscares, tense moments, and disturbing audio. Play with caution.

HALLS v0.3 is a dark, atmospheric horror game about survival, stealth, and how deep you’re willing to go into a cursed building that seems to never end.

You wake up inside the abandoned Wrenstone Institute, a building filled with twisting halls, locked closets, and cold silence. You’re not sure why you’re here—or how to get out—but there’s one thing you do know:

 Something is following you. A jester. And it’s not human.

Gameplay:

Your goal is simple on the surface:

See how far you can get through the halls. But survival is anything but easy.

You’ll need to:

• Move silently and avoid the Jester’s gaze
• Open closets to find food and gear
• Crouch under tables when the footsteps grow louder
• Keep yourself from starving, and keep your nerves from snapping

You’ll be hunted. You’ll get lost. You’ll wish you never came.

Controls: 

Here’s everything you need to know to stay alive:

Key	Action
A / D	Walk left and right
W	Interact with closets / openable objects
S	Crouch (use under tables or to hide)
Space (hold)	Open your backpack / manage inventory

 Be careful where you walk. Make too much noise, and the Jester will find you.

Lore (v0.3-Sneak Peek): 

Long ago, the Wrenstone Institute shut its doors after a series of mysterious vanishings. Nobody knew what caused them—just that everyone who entered heard laughter echoing from behind the walls.

They say a traveling performer was once locked in the institute’s basement… forgotten after an experiment gone wrong. He wasn’t like the others. He laughed even when they strapped him down.

Now, he’s part of the building. Twisting its halls. Rearranging its shape. Laughing as you starve.

They call him The Jester.

And once he sees you, 

He doesn’t stop.
