Re-published ver 0.1.2 because of a minor error.

I made the mistake of downloading this last week and forgetting to read the game description. Which is why I had no clue on what i had to do. Regardless of that the atmosphere and decent scares kept me interested, and at the time I was guessing I had to find a key or something?. After I had played I then realized that this is also early access so I might actually come back to this and give it another go once complete :)

Despite being confused it was still good because of that creepy spider bitch and the atmosphere like I said was good. I just didn't want to keep trying over and over as I had no idea what I was doing at the time. Anyway I made a video on my experience with the game which I'll link below :)

The Game:

Many people have arachnophobia (a fear of spiders), but surprisingly few horror games feature spiders in a prominent way. The main threat in Red Hourglass is a frightening creature that is part black widow spider and part woman. Her young counterpart—a girl who carries an hourglass—acts as her eyes and ears, alerting her to your presence. If the girl spots you, the spider creature will be coming for you immediately. You must run and hide until the threat passes.

There is a key hidden somewhere in the building, and it will be in a random room each time you play. Find it, and make for an exit. If you're spotted with the key in hand, the following chase will be relentless… better run!

The Story:

You're tracking down a book written by your ancestor. Your search leads you to an abandoned library at the edge of the forest. So you borrow the key to the building from the care taker and begin searching inside, but the next thing you know you're waking up on the floor. What happened? Did you pass out? It's gotten late, and it's very dark inside. Good thing you brought a flashlight, but you soon discover the doors are locked, and the key is missing. You decide to assume the key is somewhere inside the building and so you go looking for it... but you get the feeling you're not alone anymore.

Development Note:

I've decided to call this game finished. I've uploaded version 1.0 and I don't think I'll be returning to it. I had a few more ideas but ultimately I think it is a complete enough package. Enjoy!
