About This Game

You wake at midnight with just one thing on your mind: you have to leave. Move quietly through a messy house, find a friend along the way, and escape your monstrous family.

Step Lightly is a short puzzle-platformer horror game. It was made in 9 weeks by Water Leaks Studio - a team of 20 students from The Game Assembly Malmö.

Features

• Traverse your house, climb the cabinets and jump across shelves to find your way.

• Pick up and throw items like keys, cranks and beer bottles to solve puzzles.

• Push and pull boxes around to create new paths and reach higher spaces.

• Sneak around, step lightly to avoid alerting your parents.

• Run for the exit. They're onto you!
