Description
GLiTCHiA is a horror adventure.
When the retro 2D game glitches and breaks, the corruption spreads into the 3D space around you.
Sometimes you have to push the game further into chaos to uncover what was hidden...
...This place looks like your room at first. Behind you is a black space, and something is watching.
On the other side is a black space, and something is watching.
Keep playing the retro game in front of you, and react when the signs get closer. Turn around at the right moment to drive the spirits away — sometimes it even works in your favor.
The protagonist of this abandoned series is Aby, a familiar who dreams.
He was left in the wrong ending. Can you bring him back?
A game cartridge is handed to you by someone you do not fully understand.
Inside is Aby’s adventure: unstable, buggy, and ready to twist at any moment.
Your actions distort the retro world.
Through the glitches, disturbing shapes begin to appear.
Find the keepsakes hidden inside the game, and Aby changes as the series goes on.
As your connection to Aby becomes clear, the story unfolds.

User Reviews
Precious game with soul and surprise. Works well with the "glitch horror" aesthetic.
I really enjoyed this game! I thought the first rom of the game was going to be it, but then the game just kept suprising me with more content! the game style changes, the ideas explored about glitches, multiple endings, all great!
for critical feedback, I would say the turning around function was not needed as it took away immersion from what was on the screen. I think the In real life aspect of the game would have been excellent if implemented more in a better more impactful way.
other than that, i would say this is a 8/10!
