GASP could be described as Dance Dance Revolution meets ‘Next Bots’ - It’s a horror-rhythm game all about staying calm and battling anxiety under pressure. Navigate open levels with randomly generated objectives, control your breathing as it reacts to your running speed, and breathe deeply to stay quiet so as to go unnoticed by the dynamic AI controlled monster…


Because in our game, the monster cannot see you, but he can hear you. So for your own good… BREATHE!

Thanks for taking the time to check out our first game! Here’s some hints:
-If you’re having trouble with the difficulty of the game, focus more on breathing and watching the monster, and less on running.

-Wait for a deep breath if you need to grab a comfort in a dangerous place, so that you won’t have to manage your breathing.

-Feel free to download the executable for better game performance :)

SPOILERS: This game follows a boy through his anxiety attack. It might seem like a horror game at first but the twist ending reveals the true concept of our game. Enjoy!
