Another quality piece of work by Octavi, Midnight Scenes gives a quick taste of some classic style suspense filled spooks. Eerie audio and slightly unnerving scenery leave the player to unnerve themselves as they wonder what will happen next. Something? Nothing? Something else? Who knows! Personally, I could totally see a small series of games under the Midnight Scenes name, playing out like The Twilight Zone.
I missed playing this last year, so I thought I would have a go for some October spooks. Good job, dev, and keep up the good work.
Hi, I just bought your game, downloaded it and tried to play it but it won't start on my Mac. It gives me this message: "“MacOS.app” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer." What should I do? Thanks
Hi! First of all, thanks for your support and sorry about that inconvenience. Unfortunately I don't have a Mac to replicate the problem but I leave you this link where it explains step by step how to open a file that gives you that error message: https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac-software/mac-app-unidentified-developer-.
Please, let me know if this works. If not, I'll put an order for you to get a refund.
Thank you, it worked like a charm. Just right click on the app and open, not double click.
The game looked and sounded great, it was creepy and very interesting but I must admit that it was very short. It kept me wanting for more. I'm thinking of trying out The Librarian (or The Library?). Does it have a 'normal' game length?
Hi lenulita, thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it. The Librarian is just a bit longer, but don't expect more than 20-30 minutes. My games are very short but I'm releasing one every 3-4 months. I hope it's a good balance! :) Stay tuned for Midnight Scenes Ep. 2. Coming soon!
Hey not to bad of a game so far, I enjoyed the first episode and was hoping for more after. You've got a nice start to a decent point and click horror game and I hope the best for the development! Video:
Absolutely fantastic! I was a little sad that it ended when it did, I wanted to keep playing in this universe forever :D Can't wait to see the next episode!!!
Nice little adventure game! I especially loved the horror - x-files atmosphere!! Also i liked the fact that it only require common sense to solve it and it didn't have some weird puzzles. I can't wait for more 'Midnight Scenes' episodes!
Hmmm.. it was good, but was way too short. I had hoped it'd take 30 minutes to play... nope. easy to figure out, but that was a good feature, just add more to Episode 2.
Hey, I really enjoyed playing your game, so much so that I gave it a 5 star review. I was curious as to what program you used to draw and what type of tablet do you use to draw with?
HI, men i really love your art and love the way you do it, i want make a donation, but i don't have money for now... sorry but, i say it again, i really love your art :D keep doing a great job!!!
This was very subtle, and very creepy. I appreciated that you conveyed the horror through atmosphere rather than jump scares. The black and white palette and the lack of in-your-face violence made this look very old school to me, and it had more of a sad/tragic vibe than an evil one.
Hey, I played this a while ago and I was really into it! I'm not a guy that loves jumpscare-kinda horror games so this felt genuinely a bit creepy but interesting! Good job on this gem!

Hey!
I loved your take on the horror and thriller aspect! There was no jump scare but still kept me on my toes throughout the entire play-through!
Waiting for the next episode!

Thank you for playing! :) I'm glad you enjoyed it. Episode 2 coming soon!
A very good game, with a scary atmosphere but not too much, just enough ! Enigmas very well conducted, in short, a good job !
Great art and sound! Keep with the good work! :)
Hello Earth Walkers! Tis I! The great spirit of the West and I am here today to show you a game called Midnight Scenes! Crazy stuff!
Amazing game I loved every second. My only complaint is that I wish there was more of this series.
This was a delight! Loved the 50s setting alongside the Lucasarts adventure game mechanic. Very Lynchian.

Rated 5 *'s
I surprisingly really enjoyed this, I don't normally like pixel games like this.
Will you be making more horror games like this?
Thanks for playing! I'm currently working on Episode 2, so stay tuned! :)
YAY!! I'm so happy you're making another one! lol
Hey, I really enjoyed playing your game, so much so that I gave it a 5 star review. I was curious as to what program you used to draw and what type of tablet do you use to draw with?
