Home Is Where He Is (DEMO)
Some legacies carry more weight than blood ties.
After your grandfather's death, you inherit an isolated and decaying residence, shrouded in silence. What should be a routine inventory turns into a surveillance nightmare when you realize your every move... is being watched.
Someone — or something — is watching you. Someone knows your habits, your clothes, and your secrets.

this is rlly late but the change of languages is in the settings!
I love you how Mould is presented and the themes through out the story, and how eerie it seems. I do like how the mc is their own character in a way too!
thank you for putting your time to make such a lovely game!
brooo i love this so much, i can't wait for the second day
ts fire
Acabei de jogar, realmente me impressionei. Sua escrita é excelente, eu adorei a estética do jogo e me senti bastante imersa na história. Vejo bastante potencial. Já tem uma previsão de atualização? Já estou ansiosa por isso.
I LOVOEEOOEOEOEOEOOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEEOEOEOOEOEOEOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MOULD SOOOO MUCCCCHCHCHCHCH I HATE ME THOUGH FLIP THAT ID BE ALL OVER MOULD AS IF HE WAS A CUTE PUPPYYYYY PLSS LET US HAVE THE OTPION LIKE WHEN WE MEET MOULD TO CHOOSE IF WE CAN BE MEAN, INDIFFERENT, OR NICE TO MOULDLD ITD BE SO COOOLL
I got mad at myself BC of how mean we are to him he's adorable somehow I already love Mould
I love this so much !! I can't wait for an update or so. is there anywhere we can receive updates on the game?
I love it !when can we have the completed version ?
This games seems to have a lot of potential, hope to see more of it!
Its interesting to play. Wished the demo was longer. Mould reminds me of ElysiumJuly's slideshow stories on Tiktok, of one character story called "St4lk3r" I believe. It's about MC's grandmother dying and leaving behind an entity called St4lk3r for the MC. Though these two entities differ, it's interesting irregardless.
To know ElysiumJuly is ball knowledge but I think its name is W4tch3r, not St4lk3r.
Can't wait to play more of this game! Mould is such an interesting and (so far) sweet character, I started feeling a bit bad about the MC being a bit mean to him. Like, yes he's a strange entity that seems to be keeping us in the house, but like... he's so attentive and timid... I just wanna pinch his cheeks and be nice to him.
i need moree
Por que não tem mais pra jogar no site vou chorar
A versão web estava com alguns problemas, então tive que tirá-la 😔😔
Mould is such a mystery. I'm looking forward to how this ends.
Interesting game, I'm looking forward to any updates

How he got me feelin lowkey:
i always see YOU in comment sections to games like these 😭
LMAOO 😭
No había visto que apenas era la demo y quede con ganas de mucho más, la escena en donde Mould cae sobre sus rodillas!! Ame mucho esto.
Necesito más esto, Mould es tan tierno y adorable¡¡
vi no TikTok e precisei vir jogar ksks :)
I love this type of games! The pictures are so weirdly eerie? Maybe I'm used to drawn/heavily edited ones where real pictures seem off and as well as all the objects having weird filters on them?? Prefect
QUE TIERNO ES ESTE TIPOOOOO, Perl debo de admitir que me da miedo la etiqueta de abuso fisico...
PERO ESTO ESTA TAN INCREÍBLE!!!!!
THIS IS SO PEAK!!!
He's just a silly guy:D
Omg so cute! (ㆁωㆁ)
THIS LOOKS SO GOOD OMG
You drew this? Amazing! Your art style is adorable!
This is good! I need more, I love the artwork
This is soooo exciting! The artwork is so lovely and the ambient is unsettling but oddly comforting.I just feel like we are treating poor Mould a little harshly, but I do admit that in real life it is unlikely one would treat him much less harshly. Anyway, I'm definetly more than looking forward to the next update!
adoreeiii, ate parece fofo de mais kkkk
A NEW YANDERE VN GAME?
Mine crashed-
OMG OMG OMG EU AMEI ISSO!! mould é tão fofo, surtei horrores com ele. Parabéns para o autor!! o trabalho é incrível, história bem desenvolvida e boa escrita. Eu simplesmente amei jogar isso ^^

This is so good! He weirdly enough reminds me of myself, and the house images felt so homey. I loved all the enviornmental aspects and the general feel of this all. Imedietly got inspired. I really hope there will be more, seeing as this came out a few days ago. Good luck
