The game was cool. Wish it's longer 😅. The only advice: as a not native speaker I didn't understand the one part (don't want to spoil), so many titles would be good to add next time 😊

I really enjoyed the horror Isolation feel to the game. The atmosphere is so creepy and quiet. I love it! I will say there’s a certain part of the game where I wish some creepy monster demon or something coming down the road as I’m trying to fill my tank. But again really good game you got a scare out of me Gemezl 😂

I had a lot of fun with this game! One of the most enjoyable playthroughs I've made in a while. It was a little bit slow of a start but ended with a lot of energy haha. Consider watching my playthrough. (

Gostei muito do jogo, poderia ser mais longo, daí eu teria mais alguns mini infartos hehe. Os gráficos estão perfeitos, adorei poder explorar o local sem ficar preso ao objetivo final. Susto garantido e jogo muito bom! Quero ver mais jogos seus, já postei em meu canal pra divulgar. Valeu Dev!

Man, Driving Home got me questioning every dark tree branch after I ran out of gas. 😅 Love the VHS vibe and that forest silence. Also do voice acting, if you need some voice work or ambience, check out my page: https://waffledew.itch.io

Just finished playing Driving Home and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. It starts off feeling so normal — just a quiet late-night drive — and then slowly builds tension in a really effective way. The pacing was great for a short horror game, and that moment when things start to go wrong genuinely caught me off guard.

The environment was simple but immersive, and the subtle sound design added a lot to the creepiness without trying too hard. I love how it leans into that familiar fear of being stranded at night with no help in sight.

For a short indie horror game, this absolutely delivered what I was hoping for — eerie, immersive, and unsettling in the best way. Great job!
