this was a good short game but the protag was pretty stupid lol 

/edit

The ending was kinda goofy, brought the game down by 3 stars.

so is the game coming back?

I loved it one of the best games on this site

Same! :( I need this game BADLY

Fun Game!

This game was quite good. Enjoyed it, much thanks.

I not quite understand the storyline is but I really in love with the concept!! Even the atmosphere and environment in the game are sooo good. Keep continue game my friend!!

Love from Malaysia, Attau.  

I played through the full game, along with two others, and actually uploaded my gameplay to my channel! Although I do wish there were a few more scares, I thoroughly enjoyed playing through this! While I admire our character's devotion to their job, I do have many questions about their continued commitment among such horror. I hope to see something more come from you! Thank you for this experience, my friend!

Pour les Francophones !

I really dug this one! Sound effects and atmosphere were on POINT! Great job!

Greetings. I enjoyed this game. I love Lovecraftian horror. The use of purple was brilliant. Some minor bugs but overall a really fun and enjoyable retro horror experience. I enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for your good work! Playthrough attatched if anyone is interested :) 

I didn't consider this while playing, but was the old lady in on it or no?

Hey, I included your game in my latest Itch.io Horror Games video! The part with your game starts around 5:45! If you decide to check out the video, I hope you enjoy it! Cheers!

Really loved the game! I thought it walked the line of Lovecraftian creepiness without going fully overboard with Cthulhu everywhere. Remained tense and pretty scary throughout! 

(+1)

(Your game is first in the video)

Hello hello and happy (late) Halloween! I played your game as part of this massive compilation, and found myself VERY much enjoying it. Hardly the scariest experience ever, and a bit of an anticlimactic end, but the house itself and the atmosphere is absolutely awesome. I do especiallt love the purple coloring, when so man Cthulhu-inspired things go for green. Great work!

(+1)

Love the Lovecraft! Really nice short horror game! I enjoyed it!

(+1)

Dispatch is a fun Lovecraft inspired game that I honestly didn't get scared at but it was an interesting experience this is more tailored to new horror players and not veterans but overall still fun hope to see more from the DEV to see my full playthrough check the video below!

Met some great people who used me to summon something unspeakable. Would come back again.

A great short horror experience. Great atmosphere, good story, uneasy presence throughout and a lingering mystery. Loved it. Highly recommend people play this.

This was very interesting game, you should do a longer version! 👍👍👍 graphics & atmosphere is top notch!

(+1)

Very creepy wish there was more gameplay but still going to be keeping my eye on this one. Great Work.

Really interesting game!

I think this game has loads of atmosphere right out of the gate. I’ve never seen a Lovecraftian game quite like this. The house has almost an innocence; it’s quiet, it’s dark, but it sits eerily alone, with something going on behind its walls that no one else in the neighborhood knows about. The truth is especially gruesome. I love it.

I really enjoyed your game and would love to see this expanded upon!

(+1)

Muy bueno juego, corto pero divertido, buena atmosfera y estética.

(+2)

The game was really fun and I loved the creepy moments you put into this game. And those eyes! :D
I hope you will continue to make games like this! :)
Here's a playthrough :D
