Midnight Scenes Ep.1: The Highway (Special Edition)

It has that Twilight Zone feel to it and I am in love with this. The storytelling was superb. Keep it up!

woah. Awesome game. The graphics were pixelated which makes them great graphics, it's a heart racing game, and it'll give you a good scare. Keep up the episodes please.

I loved this game and I'll play the 2 episode

I am a brazilian and the gameplay is in portuguese

Oh man, this was horrifying. I love the Twilight Zone and I think you absolutely nailed that black and white retro feel to it. Although I think it lacks a meaningful twist like many of the episodes had, which was its biggest appeal for me. It's a twist that teaches you a lesson or is thought-provoking, but I didn't really find this to have either quality (i.e. there's an unexpected "twist", but it's not really thought-provoking or teaches a lesson). Nonetheless I enjoyed this, and I'm looking forward to others. Love the font and prologue stuff.

Doesn't work on MacOS Catalina, needs to be updated from 32 to 64 bits app I think.

These type's of games are the one which I love. It had weirdest but most amazing ending. This one is better than EP2 cuz this one is short. I 💙 your games.

I played this in my video (starts at 17:27)

I enjoyed this short but interesting point and click horror game! If you're a fan of shows like The Twilight Zone, this is definitely the game for you.  

Pros:

• Pixel art - The monotone color scheme used fits well with the game's atmosphere, as well as selling the creepy environment. It's pleasant to look at and cleanly drawn. Additionally, I admire that the artist was able to use black and white colors well. It can be a bit challenging to balance between high and low contrast, but I think the artist does this very well and in a way that makes clear and visually appealing graphics.
• Aesthetic - From the sound of the tv turning on in the very beginning, to the style of narration, this games sells the aesthetic of old 60s horror and mystery shows very well.
• Storytelling - While this game is mostly without text, it still manages to get a story across through the use of pictures and scene composition. Subtle environment details do a great job of communicating the story, allowing the player to piece together what happened without ever saying a word.
• Gameplay - This is a game that's accessible to those new and familiar with the point and click genre. The puzzles aren't too hard to solve, but still feel satisfying to figure out. Additionally, I think the game does a really good job of nudging the player in the right direction. Claire's reactions to the player's actions help communicate what they should do next. This is a place where I see a lot of point and clicks fall short - some people get turned away from the genre because of little guidance from the game or the trope of " try each object with everything you can interact with." This game doesn't suffer from this at all.

Cons:

• Length - While I think that the game does a good job of storytelling, I feel like having a bit more to the game would support the story and the creepy atmosphere. The puzzles that are there are fun, but I wish there were some more to do.
• Story - While the storytelling itself is really good and well-polished, the story felt a little lack luster to me. I think the game does a good job of establishing the relationships of those relating to the story, but the ending seemed a little abrupt and didn't have enough build up to make it impactful (this is just my opinion). I think a bit more time into the story and some development of the story in between the beginning and the end would sell the reveal more.
• Controls - This is moreso of a nitpick than anything else, but I do wish that the character could continuously move across the screen (maybe by holding down the mouse button?) rather than having to keep clicking to move Claire from one end of a scene to another. Since the clicking makes her movements a little broken up, I feel like this would help with the pacing a bit. Again, this is just a nitpick and it doesn't take away from the game at all, I just thought I'd write it down.

Overall: 

I'd recommend checking this game out! It's a short, fun, and creepy experience that I think many will enjoy. If you're into this game, why not check out more of the developers games or support them on patreon? I think it's well worth it.

hey why was i not scared?

It wasn't that bad actually. I loved the graphics and the film grain fits perfectly in this game. 
The story was pretty okay for such a short game. The sounds/soundtrack is cool aswell!
Thank you for this experience. There is not really much to say :p
7/10! :D

I really enjoyed this game, it was short but delivered an interesting and creepy experience. I also love how this has an old fashioned horror show/movie feel to it. The puzzles were not too easy yet not too hard, which made this game fun to play. If there's a third episode of Midnight Scenes in the works then I can't wait to play it! I made a gameplay video of the first episode of Midnight Scenes if anyone is interested in watching it. Thank you for your time and have a nice day! :3

Ey love this game, check my gameplay in Spanish pls

This was so cool! In my anxious fright I kept my nerves by yelling at Claire. "No Claire, you can't just peel the key off his dead body!!"

Pixel horror always comes out on top for me 

Loved it!
