i have a little bug while making the pancakes, i cannot add butter or sirup to the pancakes. I have tried starting new games, redownloading the game and i still cant add them. You have any tips on how to fix it? Btw great game, i play it very often with my friends and we call The Shadowcather: The Ducky, Cause its face/ mask looks like a duck head. I love all your games tbh.
So i take four pancakes and fry them until they are done. Then i put them all on a plate and then i get the butter and syrup. The red dot comes up but i cant add the butter or syrup. I prob have such a crappy pc, since its like 10 years old.
I play your games so often that i remember how to make all food I the menu XD.
Hello, sorry if I have bad English. But I wanted to tell you that I love your games and characters, each game seems unique, and to know that it is yours is to see the designs, although they are not perfect I love them very much
the game is fun, it mixes terror with a touch of making you think and how fun it is to cook, it has a simple but engaging story I would definitely play it again not only because I'm a furry haha and here I show you how I left it xd
Still going back through and playing this after I downloaded it a few days ago, something about it just caught my interest and now it's just something fun to do to relax (which is funny considering it's a horror game). I love all your works, especially for the ambiance and characters, but this one has a lot of replayability for me. I really like the base mechanics of it, and the cooking part is really fun for me. I'd honestly play the thing if it was just a cooking simulator where you got to serve the shadows!
Great job with the main gameplay and having to use the sounds to determine what the Shadowcatcher is doing. I love how you included so many aspects of the game that you have to play for a little while or pay close attention to catch, like the fact that you can go up to the door and open it to look around or that if you don't hear footsteps after he searches once he's hiding in the doorway and you can see him waiting to come in again. Things like that make short games fun.
It does have a bit of a learning curve without a tutorial, but if you just pay attention well enough you can pretty easily get a good idea of what you're doing. Once you get past that and explore how it works it's very fun and for me, something I love to replay. Great job Zed! Can't wait to see what you do next.
First of all, I appreciate the fact you've taken the time to write such an in-depth comment!
It's great to hear that you were able to enjoy the game as much as you have. Hearing that I've created something that's enjoyable is one of the highest honors as a dev. Thank you very much!
Amazing game but when I tap to try to switch characters when I wanna hide them it makes the character talk when I tap on them but overall an amazing game keep up the good work!
honestly its a great game and i hope that you can find a way to kinda continue the shadow catcher series by adding a sequel to it but it could have a twist im no coder nor model designer and im honestly only 13 but i do have some ideas on what a sequel game could be like id be willing to work with you and would love to help give you some new ideas if you are interested then just reply and we can find a way to get into communication either by email or discord so i hope to hear back from you! :)
Played this after "The Man From The Window" and "The Vermander's Curse", and I love your gamedev style (the characters, the animation style, the gameplay mechanics)! :)
I wonder one thing though: If a big part of society in your games are humanoid animals, doesn't that make the restaurant partially cannibalistic?
Thank you very much for your kind words, I appreciate them greatly. :)
Also, no. This hasn't been explored in the games yet, but my reasoning is that the meats of this universe retain most of the same names, but come from various types of monsters and entities.
The game is pretty awesome, but sometimes the Shadowcatcher enters through the main door without doing any footsteps sound, and I think that's a little bit unfair. Other than that, I really like this game!
Glad to hear you liked the game, thanks for playing! :)
Regarding your issue, I will say that there is a sound. However, my audio leveling skills leave much to be desired, so it's probably not loud enough. My apologies!
For right now I'd like to stay right here and show my support for Itch, as I quite like this site. I don't know what the future holds, but for the foreseeable future there are no plans for Steam releases. :)
This is the allegorical game. The shadow family represents the civilians immigrating to a new country for a happier life, while the Shadowcatcher represents the dark side of border control and xenophobic authorities that doesn't let people from their different land go, discriminating them.
So, the Shadowcatcher is discriminating the family of shadow immigrants.
a 50% chances gamer use the phone and 20% gamer use computer and 1% gamer use their own controlled make the other version such as : andorid, ios, fire os, ps5, xbox 360, xbox and ps4 please it takes 72 hours
I enjoy your games a lot, this one felt more fleshed out and fun than the last one, i havent gotten to the second night yet but i will soon and then ill play your newest one!
honestly, it's a very entertaining and spooky game. i love all the games you make and i hope you keep making them, the graphics and the stories are unique.
When one braincell is shared between two idiot who see big body animals, nothing can stop the Tonyous Brothers in the mission to feed the shadow people!
I'm glad these games have inspired you to want to make your own, but I'm really not a teacher.
Still, game development is very easy to get into nowadays, especially with how much knowledge is available out there. If you're truly interested, I suggest starting out by watching Youtube tutorials on the basics of engines like Unity, Unreal, or maybe something entirely different. You'll need to learn the basics first.
If you're still on board by that point, try practicing with pre-made assets until you're comfortable enough to start making your own. It's all a very long process, and will take a lot of work. But it's very rewarding if you stick with it.
I had a lot of fun playing through this game, the whole concept works really well, I managed to get all the endings too which was fun, the man from the window game was brilliant as well so I had to play this one too, great job! :)

How strange!
Are you certain you've followed the cookbook precisely? Keep in mind the dish requires four pancakes.
Also, thank you for your interest in the game, I appreciate it.
Yea, i know that:
1. You need pancake batter
2. Butter
3. Syrup
So i take four pancakes and fry them until they are done. Then i put them all on a plate and then i get the butter and syrup. The red dot comes up but i cant add the butter or syrup. I prob have such a crappy pc, since its like 10 years old.

Thanks for playing both, I appreciate it! :)
Hello, just wanted to say your game is pretty damn cool. Do you plan on releasing your games onto steam?
Thank you very much! :)
For right now I'd like to stay right here and show my support for Itch, as I quite like this site.

no
i cant place the plates and i dont know why
other wise this game is a masterpiece
Are you talking about how to serve the food?
First you pick up a completed dish, then left-click on the person you want to give the food to!
If you want to know how to drop the plate, that's right-click.
Apologies if the instructions were too unclear.
please make an android version
I appreciate your interest in the game, but I'm not able to develop for mobile platforms at the moment.
I apologize, and sorry to disappoint!
a 50% chances gamer use the phone and 20% gamer use computer and 1% gamer use their own controlled make the other version such as : andorid, ios, fire os, ps5, xbox 360, xbox and ps4 please it takes 72 hours

Awesome!
Thanks!
Amazing game! I love it!
Glad you liked this one as well, thanks! :)
honestly, it's a very entertaining and spooky game. i love all the games you make and i hope you keep making them, the graphics and the stories are unique.
Thank you so much! :)
I definitely plan on making more games, hopefully I won't disappoint.
That's a very fun summary. :)
Thanks for playing!
can you help me make a game Zed_technician Please?
I want to learn how to make game like yours and for everyone to enjoy it! :)
I'm glad these games have inspired you to want to make your own, but I'm really not a teacher.

It's all a very long process, and will take a lot of work. But it's very rewarding if you stick with it.
Thank you for your suggestions! I will try Unity first. But just a question! Did you watch tutorials before you become a developer?
Have a nice day! :)
Yes, I did! Everything I currently know came from tutorials and a lot of trial and error.
Good luck!
Thank you! :)
btw since unity is a lil expensive
i decided to try CryEngine and this happened.
(I dont know what this means,mind helping me understand?)
Sounds like your graphics card doesn't meet that engine's requirements.
Also, keep in mind that you can use the Unity Personal version for free, as long as you don't make over 100k a year!
i really love this game! this could potentially have a continuing story and i really loved your game! no need to rush, but just a suggestion.
Thank you! There are still a lot more projects I plan on doing, and some will definitely be continuations.
I appreciate the suggestion. :)
I absolutely love your games! I've seen Bijuu Mike play all of your games, so I wanted to give some a try! I'm excited for new games :D
Thank you! Glad to hear you liked what you saw of the games!
I'll do my best not to disappoint. :)
i watch him too
can you make a free game like the man in the window but kreekcraft in yur moms house lol
That may be a little bit too much of a departure from what I normally do, I'm afraid.
Thanks for the suggestion, though. :)
I really love your games, I can’t wait for more!!!
Thank you very much!
I appreciate the kind words. :)
zed_technician can you make a game where you get to be the monster? and pls make it the demogorgon
I'll keep your suggestion in mind.
Thanks for stopping by. :)
also this game was very fun
Thank you! :)
I had a lot of fun playing through this game, the whole concept works really well, I managed to get all the endings too which was fun, the man from the window game was brilliant as well so I had to play this one too, great job! :)
That's so nice to hear, I appreciate the kindness. :)
Thanks for playing this one too, and congrats on beating the game!
[ROMANIAN COMMENTARY]
Thank you for playing! :)
What does the red star mean/do? (when you beat the game)
Edit: awesome game btw, I really liked it
Thanks! Glad to hear you liked this one.
The red star just means you've completed the good ending. :)
oh, cool
