Really enjoyed this game. I wish there was a way to distract the monster from camping around your hiding spot but overall, it's a great stealth horror! I only play horror games on my channel btw- feel free to check me out!
The creature design was creepy, especially the way it moved, and the graphics looked beautiful. Our biggest problem with this was that we couldn't tell if we were supposed to keep getting caught by the monster - he kept trapping us in a certain area, almost like he was magnetised to us, and it felt almost impossible to escape him. This got very frustrating and took a long time to get past. It felt like the game could maybe benefit from a distraction mechanic to avoid the monster, as right now it is quite difficult to use the mirror sometimes to pinpoint its location - especially as it's able to teleport so fast in front of you anyway. All in all, we did initially enjoy getting scared by monster and not knowing where it was, but admittedly we did get a little frustrated with trying to get past it. Here is our gameplay video:
cara, geniaaal, adorei a mecanica de terror usando o espelho pra ver os monstros super criativo, primeiro jogo com esse estilo que eu joguei, os graficos não ficam nada a desejar também ta lindo, ele entrega muito bem o que precisa ser entregado parabens aos envolvidos
Premise is good, the mirror mechanic is interesting and the graphics are awesome. Unfortunately i didnt had fun. After just a few tries the scare factor dropped to zero for me, the game became boring and to avoid the monster became an hassle that had nothing fun to it, it just didn't clicked for me. The atmosphere was great but the general lack of lore couldn't save it for me. Though opinions are subjective.
hola ! queria decirte que me fascino tu videojuego , todos tienen un gran talento !!! espero que sigan sacando joyas de terror tan geniales como esta, aqui les dejo mi gameplay : ) cuidensee
I'm Gunna be honest, never really been a fan of what I call "hide and seek horror" despite this I can honestly say this game is super well made. The graphics are impressive and the primary mechanic is original and well thought out. You can see my full play through on my YouTube channel right here!
The mirror mechanic really drew me to this game & whilst it has it's pros & cons, I really enjoyed the game! I made a few suggestions at the end of the video but, for a final year project, really well done! Definitely
keeping an eye out for further updates and releases!
Thank you for getting back to me! Already have it downloaded on Steam. I'll try and remember to leave feedback here and there when I'm done with it though!
Deepened by the state of the broken glassed veil.. do we seek out the Monsters of our worst NIGHTMARES!
The game ran smoothly and was expressed through a perfected style. It was intriguing to play backwards with a mirror.. It was wobbly at first. But it got easier afterwards.
The problem I ran into, is that I ended up losing the need of the mirror after realizing that I could play through sound. You can locate the demon, or monster through the sound of the water, esc, Davy jones locker music lmao.
I didn't quite understand the story other than the MA had a mirror, which caused a monster to leak into the real world.. Would LOVE to see how this is possible when and if the game comes out on FULL RELEASE..
Solid "avoid the monster" gameplay and level design but I found the mirror to be more detrimental to your survival than helpful so I did most of it using just sound and the darkening of the screen when you were close to the monster to guide me through.Also, I don't know what kind of framerate I was getting (20 fps maybe? My computer ain't what it used to be,) and man, motion blur really looks bad on low framerates.
Very nice design... it would be great if we could configure the keys to move, because in France, we use the AZERTY keyboard and your configuration is not easy for us... It would be better to use the arrow keys.
Forild, I found the game idea very good and very interesting, I wanted to know two things about the game, the first thing is if there will be a mobile version for the game in the Google Play Store, the second thing is if the game will also have on steam.
okay understand, one more question for you, the game will soon have other languages like "French, Japanese, Italian and Portuguese" a point that would be nice for your game.
Graphics reminded me of of dishonoredwhich I liked, the enemy was decently predictable, but all in all I liked it. The concept is really neat, I regarded it as "playing a horror game with a rear view mirror" lol
What an awesome, frightening game! The mirror mechanic was super cool and the monster was truly scary! Very well done! Really want to see more of a game like this, like a whole story of the player being hunted down by these mirror monsters! Hope you enjoy the video!
The mechanics and game-play were something I never saw before when it came the to hand mirror. Very creepy and stressful with that monster running around! However I really enjoyed playing it and recommend trying it out!
Hello, someone contacted me on Discord asking me to try this game today, I believe they have setup a copy of your itch page with a fake (likely a virus) download.
This game had to be the most STRESSFUL GAME I've played so far. BUT...it was also the most perfect game when it comes down to fear😂💯! If you have time then you can see my reaction here 😁😎

The monster design was very creepy and you can't beat the mirror.
Love to see more~ !
Hi! Have you think about translating the game? If so I would like to helpl you with that, I have to translate a game for a university project. :D

Here's a 12 second video from this awesome game.
The mirror mechanic really drew me to this game & whilst it has it's pros & cons, I really enjoyed the game! I made a few suggestions at the end of the video but, for a final year project, really well done! Definitely
keeping an eye out for further updates and releases!Two questions!
Any update on when this will be released on Steam? I thought it was today.
Is it the same game that you can download here and it's just not released there yet, or?
Anyway, I'm excited to play this one. It was hard to not look at reviews! lol
The game is now released on steam
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1856930/Wayward_Harbor/
It has a few small improvements, but nothing major has changed
Thank you for getting back to me! Already have it downloaded on Steam. I'll try and remember to leave feedback here and there when I'm done with it though!
This game gave me a thrill of FRIGHT!
Deepened by the state of the broken glassed veil.. do we seek out the Monsters of our worst NIGHTMARES!

Hi! You can already wishlist the game on steam, it's coming out soon. We are not planning a mobile version atm
