NOTE: If you're reading this page, I'm writing this as of 8th July 2023, and I have an important announcement. I recently got a new laptop, MUCH more powerful than my last one, well, to list the specs, my last laptop had a dual core i5, nvidia GTX 940MX 4gb gpu and 16gb ram and a 5400RPM hard disk. My new laptop has an AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX (better than i9-11980HK), Nvidia RTX 3060 6gb gpu and 32gb ram along with 2 NVMe SSDs. As a result, I will be updating the game soon, once I get some time. now, I might update the game or I might make a new Ghost Hunt game altogether. The reviews on this one were pretty good and that makes me more passionate about the continuation of Ghost Hunt as a series? I guess- Anyways, More updates will follow. IF I choose to update the game, it will also be releasing on steam and Epic games store. Thanks for all your support! Previously a $7 game, I'm making it free to play permanently. Any support is appreciated!
As mentioned in the text above, I have decided to make a full fledged cinematic horror game called "The Ghost Hunt" altogether, however, in the mean time, I have updated this game as well. Check out Ghost Hunt Remastered here:

What happens when you go on a Ghost Hunt to an allegedly haunted location which has a sinister past, a dark history, with the curiosity of finding out if Ghosts are real and with the wish to be able to capture real paranormal activity on the camera, to be able to prove if Ghosts are real. But what happens when your adrenaline filled, casual ghost hunt turns out to be your worst nightmare!

NOTE: I launched that website 3 years ago and the website is now, unfortunately, down. I have since changed the name of the studio as well, due to certain events that happened. I have been struggling with severe mental health issues but as of now, after such a long time, I have found myself passionate about game dev again and I will be working on more things. Thanks!

Plot of the game:
The story of ghost hunt revolves around an amateur ghost hunter, who has been on several ghost hunts, but never found a compelling evidence of the paranormal. During one of his casual ghost hunts, he decided to visit an abandoned building in the Ravenhill area of Kentucky. The mistake he makes is that he goes there, ALONE. He begins his ghost hunt thinking as if it would be a normal ghost hunt as well, and nothing paranormal is gonna show up this time either, but what happens inside, changes him. He comes face to face with his darkest fears.
In the game, you will be given a few usable objects at the beginning of the game. These objects will be useful for the player to give the player a headstart. Be careful, the entities the lurk in that darkness could be anywhere, could attack anytime. Stay vigilant. Look everywhere. Inspect everything. You might just find something that could save your life. There are secrets hidden in the building, you must find them in order to be able to get out. Best of luck

Hey! Sweet game! A few of the jump scares should last a second or two longer. I was moving my camera and didn't see a couple of them because it flashed so quickly. Other than that, awesome job!
Hey!
Thank you for the feedback! I've been away from solo game dev for a while but I'm trying to make a come-back. I remastered this game and I'm re-releasing it tomorrow, incase you wanna check out the re-master! I haven't done much apart from just improving the graphics by a little bit because I'm actually starting a game studio with a couple of my buddies, we're calling ourselves "Arkatia" games. So yeah- Im reviving the Ghost Hunt name into a full fledged story based cinematic horror which will release on steam next year, but for now, I just wanted to get something out here hence, releasing a remaster of this game- Im open to suggestions and all and all kinds of support is appreciated! Thank you so much!

I'm a horror game veteran, but I haven't finished this one yet; it's THAT damn scary and I had to take a break. Can't wait to tremble and scream my way through the rest of it!
Howdy! I'm sorry for not responding to your comment for so long... Well, my mental health is absolute shit and I had logged out... Your review does mean alot to me and it might get me back into game development again... Im not sure though... Anyways, Im glad you liked my game... Thanks for playing!
My friends and I played this for a Random Horror Game video! Fantastic Job!
Thanks :) Try out "The Shrine" by me as well! Its a walking sim horror game demo!!
Hi bro!! i got a problem with the game, i got 2 monitors and the game opens in the wrong display .. there is a way to play windowed mode?
Hey,
Open the properties of the game, and add "-windowed" to the location at the end, hopefully that works:)
Bro...I knew it was scary and I'm no stranger to scary games I never jump during a game...but let me tell you, the jumpscares in this game WILL get you. This game is at the place where I'd forget about formalities and burn the house down over that thing! Awesome job with the game! I was not expecting to be hunted in this game, but I was and it was by the monster itself. If this is how good your games are, hopefully I'm around to find your next one!
Thanks buddy!!
I really appreciate it. I'm glad you liked my game!!
Man, this game is CRAZY! It’s so scary I think I have to take a vacation now lol creepiest 40 mins of my life!!!
Glad I'm not the only one who reacted remotely similar to your reaction! XD
Thanks for playing Ghost Hunt :)
I'm glad you enjoyed it!!!
I'll give it a shot tonight. I didn't realize I would ever be hunted so I'm curious! ;)
Update: I will say that I did have to search for a decent rar extractor. NCH software is a good software that I would personally go for. I completely forgot about them until I found their version. It's not nighttime yet, so I'm not playing it until then.
Sure :)
I’m gonna have to wait. I started feeling awful earlier today, hope it’s not covid, so it’ll stay on my computer until I can play it. Update: Guess it was a false alarm, maybe it was a stomach flu or something. It was gone by the time I got up this morning.
Hey , Very good game, here is my gameplay, graphic is good and creepy atmosphere, And i recommend the game , I support you for your future project, enjoy;)
Thank you so much 😊. Could you please help share the game with more people? It's hard getting a game seen for an indie :(. And I'm glad you liked the game :)
