ClayTown Horror Part One
A downloadable game for Windows
An eerie house to be the stage.
To a tortured soul it's but a cage.
To you, lone visitor, it feels forlorn.
but soon there'll be nothing left to mourn.
"Welcome to ClayTown Friend"
Not many people come here, so it's quite nice to see you.
Though I must say...
You sure are tempting fate coming here.
ClayTown isn't what it used to be.
Friendly faces? Lovely Art? Life in the heart of nature?
All dead ideas.
But don't fret, there's still plenty to see.
I hear you're interested in ghost stories?
Then why don't you go to that old estate.
Oh there's plenty to see up there.
Mystery, Horror, Consequences,
you'll find all of that and more up there.
Be sure to take a close look around, who knows what you might uncover
Huh? Is it safe to go up there?
There's nothing to be afraid of friend;
why, I've gone up there a few times as well.
aΜ·nd I'm perfectly fine
Doesn't matter if you think so or not,
we both know you'll go up there.
So feel free to go on in
Oh, I do hope your wit is as big as your curiosity.
That estate is a tricky thing to explore.
Keys, Puzzles, Notes, and Riddles
Its residents are quite a secretive bunch.
I'm sure there's a lot to uncover
Oh yes the residents, don't mind them.
They're a little shy at first, but they'll warm up to you.
So don't let their callousness offend you,
I assure you they'd love to pick your brain.
I'm sure they'll love you
Well friend
Stay safe up there,
and don't get too overwhelmed
Hope you enjoy your stay,
and Welcome to ClayTown.

Second part is up . I believed I had encountered a bug in the basement area
I'm really enjoying what I've played so far! Looking forward to playing more !
el juego esta muy interesante, sufrΓ un poco con las pistas pero es porque estoy muy ciego, asΓ que no lo considero un problema, la ambientaciΓ³n esta bien lograda y los acertijos son bastante interesantes

Hey! I played your game on my stream! Watch it to see the live review! Here's the link for it: https://www.twitch.tv/spacematterplay π
I would also appreciate if you could give an opinion on our latest game. Game devs advice is precious because we know better what it takes to make something work. It's called "Backdoor Shifts"
I'm looking forward to the full game! It's fantastic!
Please finish this masterpiece <3
Really like the vibe that this has; gotta say the binder tutorial isn't 100% clear though I am a dum dum so maybe that was just me. IGNROING THAT THO I liked this; can't wait for the full product.
hola , espero que se encuentren muy bien , le hice un gameplay hace mucho tiempo a su videojuego espero que les guste mucho , me encanto el juego , tienen mucho talento y espero que el proyecto siga adelante : ) sigan asiii hacen un excelente trabajoo !!
I loved this game. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time I was playing it. Can't wait for the full game to come out.
LOVED THE SPOOKY VIBE IN THIS BREH
Gros jeu qui s'annonce! Vraiment au top du top !!!
J'ai adorer il est supe,hate de voir la version finale...
i LOVED this demo, played it via steam and on Stream. I can not wait till it's a finished game. 10/10 for a demo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKgPTJ0yckQ
Yo such a good game! cant wait to see how it turns out its already on my wishlist!
can't wait for the full game to come out, really creepy demo but hope it ramps up the horror with the full game.
Check out my video.
We can assure you there will be PLENTY of spooks in the full release.
Appreciate this beautiful Clay Game.I dont wanna say i want more, but i want more.I appreciate that the demo wasn't scare galore but a more built upon atmosphere and puzzle because in the full game we're obviously going to see more scares, which is why i think it's a fresh of breath air that you showed a more "tame" side of the game for the demo.
First of All, I love this game even though my worst nightmare is Clay animation (90's kid here ) but I can't wait until the full game is out, I'm honestly terrified!!!!!
such great potential really looking forward to this one as it moves through development!
Not surprised to see all the you-tubers in the comments going berserk with their same copy paste facial expressions-
do not jump in between the crayon candles next to the boxes at the start of the basement, i done it and i got stuck.
Pros and cons are down below)
Check out my video here if you'd like (I refer to it a lot and found some bugs there too):
Advantages:
1. The style is so cool! The visuals and the sound design are impeccable and so amazing! It felt very immersive to be inside the building, opening the doors, crawling around being scared of noises.
2. The puzzle was interesting. I wish that the game would have some less obvious not obligatory puzzles for additional content but as is it was very fun to solve.
Disadvantages:
1. Not scary enough. I wish you could see an actual monster or a glimpse of a chase scene or at least a jumpscare. Right now the scare factor seemed a bit disappointing.
2. Well I encountered a nonexistent wall and went through it and then found a door and fell through the floor of the map. So ig even the demo currently has bugs.
Overall:
I really love the style and I really want the full game to succeed! I can rate it 7.44 Clay Monsters / 10 as is (5stars for itch.io). Can't wait for more content!
Hope my feedback was useful!
Thanks so much for the great feedback! We're aware some people were disappointed that there weren't more scares in the demo, however our main focus of the demo was to showcase the visual aspects of the game; we know you won't be disappointed by the full release. The bug you mentioned is also something we're aware of and working on. Stay spooky!
Muito bom o jogo! Mal posso esperar pra jogar a versΓ£o completa dele. As vezes Γ© bem difΓcil enxergar os itens(isso ou eu estou cegueta mesmo), mas de resto, um Γ³timo jogo
I'm still waiting for the whole game to come down.
SO. DARN. GOOD.
Listen, I'm not one for puzzle games, but I do love a good aesthetic horror game, and I am in love and I've already sold my soul to the cardboard mansion. Wishlisted and followed! Everyone needs to go play this game, especially if you're a fan of movies like Coraline and anything Tim Burton's made.
Love to hear that you enjoyed the demo so much! While we wish we could give a release date, we'd rather not make any promises and instead focus on making the best experience we possibly can. Until then, Stay Spooky!
I'm really excited to see where this one goes! it has so much potential! Loved what I played so far!
Really, really enjoyed this one. This is like Poppy Playtime meets Claymation. Very excited for the next parts!
Fantastic demo! Really excited to see the full release, the atmosphere in this game is really well done. Loved the little hints to the story and what's going on with the house in general, but my favorite part definitely had to be the monster design. It was creepy! Hoping to see it in action in the full release!
Our lovely local Artist is just one of the several residents of ClayTown that we're SURE you're going to love.
Good game! Its really spooky, and I love the puzzle. I did get lost at the part where the lights fall and go out, maybe the light of the flashlight could be a little more brighter so I could see it, but that might just be me, and my PC being darker. but overall excellent experience!
We appreciate the feedback, thank you for your support!
Thanks for the feedback, Stay Spooky!
Hey! I included your game in my latest Itch.io Horror Games video! The part with your game starts around 0:05! Hope you enjoy the video if you decide to check it out! Cheers!
