The Mystery Shack

I have beaten the game. It wasn't bad, but it didn't really feel like much like a Gravity Falls fangame.

The cameras, just like the demo, don't really have much resembling the show, which is a real shame. The way you deal with characters also are just basic buttons that don't take anything from the show either. You're pretty much just pressing a few buttons without much thought throughout the game, and the only "difficulty" is the reaction time. I will also mention that the anti-sleep tone is too loud and the jumpscares are underwhelming.

I'd say the best thing about this game by far is Bill. He's fun. I love how he messes with the player, especially the monetization joke. I like the idea of the final night, but it didn't really do much aside from the theming. There were times during that night where I was given unfair situations, mainly being the chance of getting two bills in the bunker back-to-back, which was inescapable.

Overall, I liked the idea of the game, but the game itself was simple and not that interesting. I wouldn't say it built itself off the original media all that well, aside from Bill, which had perfect characterization. I wish you luck with your future endeavors.

I'm writing this as the demo has released

I definitely can appreciate this demo. It has a very nice aesthetic to it. It's definitely going for "less is more" which works well. Dipper is quite intimidating, but the jumpscare is very rough, unfortunately. I liked Bill's sequence a lot though. Bill is a cool character, and I'd like to see more of him throughout the game once it's released. I like the modeling of the office, but I think it'd be much better for the cameras if you could look at them and notice something from the show that really makes you think "yeah, I can recognize that from the show." Seeing the outside of the shack on the outside camera, seeing Dipper and Mabel's room, and seeing the exhibits on the inside cameras, and maybe having the outside-the-office camera be the vending machine would be really cool to see because it would tie the cameras in with the show better.

I'm looking forward to the game's release and I hope it turns out nicely.

Apparently the game was getting flagged with false positives so i have updated the package to include the zip file, it should not be getting flagged anymore. I am also waiting for virustotal to finish scanning the files and will update with the link when possible

Is there anyway to close the door after its opened by dipper?

this game isn't malicious or adds anything to your computer?
it said a driver was added or smth like that
but i assume it never added a driver to my computer
