Silent Mementos
A downloadable game for Windows
The game was developed in around 2 weeks for the Senscape Adventurous Jam 2021. Won 2nd Place.
When a man hasn’t returned from exploring an old abandoned house, his girlfriend decides to go to the house and find him. She’ll soon discover that the house has a story to tell, and it wants to show it to her through Super 8 Film. She now realizes that if she wants answers to what happened to her lover, she must watch the Super 8 Footage.
As the player, you not only experience the house through the girlfriend’s eyes. However, you also experience the game through a Super 8 camera from a second-person perspective.
TIP: To use doors, just directly walk into them.

Hello, your game, its way of playing is really super different from other games and I think it gives a plus to the game, it's really great. The graphics are successful and the story with the super 8 makes you want to continue, to know more about the story I loved it 😃
Super concept!! J'aime beaucoup
Good job =)
Another fantastic game! I'll share the video when its done! (Sorry about the esx jokes) - Exceptional quality of deep dark stories that always leave you feeling haunted. This creator is nothing short of phenomenal
I was lucky to find this game because is amazing! I really love the history and the atmosphere! I did a video on my channel (Spanish). Hope you like it
A bit late on posting this here, but I did really enjoy this game and loved that you could you know just leave. It needs to be put into more horror games!
Hey, I featured your game in my latest Itch.io Horror Games video! I really enjoyed your game and I hope you enjoy my coverage of it if you decide to check it out! Cheers!
Hands down one of the most impressive stories I have ever seen from an indie horror. Well, well done!

The 2nd Person was a weird, but cool and memorable experience :p
The part at the end gave me a chill up my spine.

Check out ny video.
My Gameplay
I actually loved this game. It was recommended to me so I wasn't sure what to expect, but the ending gave me real goosebumps and the entire basement puzzle had me SO on edge! The story and plot twists were awesome 👍🏻👍🏻 Good stuff!
(I did struggle with the storybook pages though. For anyone else who can't find the last page, there are two in the parents' bedroom!)
the concept is so unique, I highly recommend this game.
i think its worth expanding on.
Congratulations on taking second place Alex!
Didn't realize until the end you also made Cage Face, loved that game and loved this one! You definitely have some talent and an obvious passion for making great horror games!
Loved it!! a truly great game, with an eerie atmosphere!!
this game hit differently!! very very good! Nice work!
it was AMAZING experience! thank You!
Brilliant atmosphere further emphasized by the silence of the movies giving further creepiness while keeping it unexpected. Really like the idea of second person perspective. Thank you for making this.
Amazing atmosphere, created great chilling moments through a unique way of interacting with the game. Caught me on the last puzzle, I think the guy deserved a better girlfriend.
Thank you for the kind comment on my vid, Dev.
Very well done! I loved that I wasn't hounded the whole time by some annoying monster. Just dread and suspense. 10/10

Although quite a few games use video cameras, this game turned it up a notch. Although I'm not that good at solving puzzles [I'm from years and years of playing FPS, where you just blast and blow your way to the end :o], I had tons of fun playing this game. You guys created not only game, but the just environment to play out a horror game the way I like it. I didn't run into any bugs or hiccups, but just read in the comment below here's at least one. Well done. Kudos to all involved!The sensitivity bar is broken, but that seems to be the only bad thing about the game.
Thanks for letting me know, I'll see what I can do to fix this issue.
Nice!
This was so good and so creepy! Really enjoyed being able to play through the reel! Such a fantastic idea!
Loved the game! The visuals are nice and the story is a good one. I like the use of the super eight camera.

This is the coolest game i've played yet. I think this is the first time i've played a second-person game. Kinda unique in my opinion. Keep up the good work!
This game was really good especially for only being developed in 2 weeks. Really liked the whole idea of playing most of the game through a projector. Made a video on it.
