Silly question... how do I start each game? I put in their VHS tapes that shows the Title, Relaunch, and Eject. Can't click anything to get them to start however.
Hello Ben, I just had a question on Samhain, when it says to please adjust tracking for better picture quality. What exactly do you mean by this? I did a google search on how to adjust tracking for my pc but I have had no luck. Any clarification/guidance would be appreciated. I just want to play the Samhain halloween edition in the proper aspect ratio. Thank you
Very much worth it, for the various games you get. I played the story mode, which I found very enjoyable. It's funny how the cat is named Dodgeball. Kind of confused about the ending with the interrogation room/masked man. Here is how I liked the games:
Feed Me Billy - Probably my favorite, or second favorite. The music randomly becomes scary, despite the fact that you aren't being chased or anything, which I found unsettling. I should mention here (and this applies to other games, as well) that switching between objects is difficult and quite annoying. I'm aware you use the mouse wheel, but even when I'm not using the wheel, the objects will randomly change, and then I'll have to go back to the one I wanted. This happens again and again. Back to the game, though. I liked how the people try to run away after you shoot them. I'm curious to know more about the person who sent the killer notes through the mail, and who randomly appears at one point. And I want to learn more about the monster, too.
The Riverside Incident - I found this game to be deeply unsettling. For some reason the sensitivity was automatically very low and I couldn't figure out how to adjust it. Moreover, you can't sprint (at least not that I know of), so it was very slow. My screen was also unusually dark. For reference, I skimmed through a playthrough of this game after playing it, and their screen was normal. The grainy camera graphics combined with this strange darkness/inability to make out objects far away made for a terrifying experience. I think I kept getting teleported? I didn't know what was happening most of the time because the graphics and motion were so off. I ended up in a room with a doll and the screen started descending to darkness. The forest scene came next, but because there was no light whatsoever (come to think of it, there was a flashlight option or something, but the light would never turn on when I pressed the button?), it took a while to figure out where to go. The ending was abrupt. Overall this game didn't make much sense to me, and I felt a sense of fear I don't think I've felt during any other game. A visceral terror. Because the flashlight didn't work, and I couldn't predict anything.
Night Shift - Great game. I wish there were more convenience store games like this one. I don't really have any complaints. The death was very unexpected, because I was thinking I'd be killed in the bathroom and yet was killed elsewhere. Looking forward to playing Stay Out of the House (because the killer in this game is the same as the one in that game, I believe).
Spiders - Pretty forgettable due to the fact that the controls were weird and I couldn't figure out what exactly I should do. The issue of switching between objects was especially prominent here, with the game going from one object to another as I was being killed by spiders. I didn't spend much time on this game, however, so I'll come back to it in the future.
Night Shift was absolutely horrifying for me. I know it sounds silly but I've never been more scared by a horror game before. Definitely recommend and I intend on playing the rest of this series!
Every time I try to download the game it stops the download at about 2 gb and says "forbidden."
Supposedly it means I don't have the rights to download the link, but I bought the game and even got an email for the link. It's in my collection as well. So I don't understand why it's not letting me download it, any tips?
No, it doesn't mean you don't have rights. It's probably a server issue. I'd recommend downloading it with the app at itch.io/app or you could contact site support at support@itch.io
About a year ago, I purchased Nun Massacre, Night Shift, and Stay out of the House in a bundle. Is there a way to download them again or must I repurchase them?
Hi I just bought your game bundle and it seems I can only get Drill Massacre to work, I tried looking up solutions but couldn't find anything. Do you have any suggestions? I really would like to get Nun Massacre working, hope this isn't too odd.
I love The Whole Bundle its A MUST!! puppet combo got the best games! that jumpscared had me have a HEART ATTACK!! More Horror Games on the Channel! <3
I bought the pack and the first game I played was "Feed Me Billy". Its terrifying, I highly recommend the pack and there games in general, heres my video on the game! (:
Night Shift was my first Puppet Combo game and let me say, it was an interesting start in my following of this developer. I have recorded it though! But unfortunately, I played it with one of my friends when I should've recorded it by myself.
Ben, if you're reading this then, I appreciate you being a part of the game development industry!
I played The Riverside Incident today, sheesh.. That is one of the best found-footage games I have ever played in my life. The lack of background music made it so eerie, and then the slowed music made it twice as scary. Looking at the little details found around the area is what really got me tho, so much work put into this game!
I played Feed Me Billy today, and had loads of fun. I enjoyed the little "what if you were the bad guy this time" twist, definitely one I wish to see in more games. I did have two good scares, and found it funny how easy it was to kill some people. Although the stuff on the TV
Today I played Night Shift from the four games, this was my first ever puppet combo game. I enjoyed the authentic retro vibes it gave out, and the horror aspect came out so well. The little clues that show you should be cautious of your environment is what really gave me a good vibe. I can't wait to play the others, looking forward to those and many other projects!
This looks awesome, the style and camera effects are great! However, I wonder why did you use separate binaries instead of loading scenes in unity? This breaks immersion
I'm having trouble getting this to run on the mac, the story mode worked but when I put the tapes in it gets stuck or something. I noticed some other comments of other people who had the same issue
I guess if u have a Mac you have to run the files to the different stories separately. Which is kind of unfair because it means Mac owners are getting less content than other people for the same price

I made a Night Shift video! Please read the description. :)
Damn this new bloodwash teaser seems great, cant wait for the full game
"How much post-processing do you want in the game?"
"Yes"
All jokes aside, some good atmosphere. Night Shift is probably the best of the tapes.

If you're playing on Mac, you'll have to start the games from their actual game folders unfortunately.

It's says that just for aesthetic. It's referring to video tape tracking https://southtree.com/blogs/artifact/tape-tracking-what-is-it-how-does-it-work

Didn't get quite as scared by this one but still thoroughly enjoyed it, even if the ending did throw me off lol. Hope y'all enjoy it too.
when i buy this pack i don't see feed me billy
in the riverside incident, there's an old-timey song that plays near the end of the game, can someone please tell me what that song is? thanks :)
unsettling. Genuinely gave me nightmares! A phenomenal package not to be missed!
Night Shift was absolutely horrifying for me. I know it sounds silly but I've never been more scared by a horror game before. Definitely recommend and I intend on playing the rest of this series!
Hell yeah
absolutely loved this game, can't wait to play the second part, and all the other amazing scary games :)
wow now I feel silly. I appreciate the explanation!
I really enjoyed playing feed me billy :)

Well the night shift did get me reallllyyyyy nervous
Easy my 2nd fav game in Scary Tales Vol 1 right behind Feed Me Billy. Great job man.
This collection was a throw back to the snuff films of yester year. I remain haunted to this day by that era! This is good stuff!

This is terryfying.

I'm having trouble getting this to run on the mac, the story mode worked but when I put the tapes in it gets stuck or something. I noticed some other comments of other people who had the same issue
I got the game to run. I was enjoying it but it runs really poorly on my mac, a lot of freezing
how did you get it to run?
I guess if u have a Mac you have to run the files to the different stories separately. Which is kind of unfair because it means Mac owners are getting less content than other people for the same price
me too PuppetCombo needs to fix it!
