Kindred (DEMO 2025)
A downloadable game
"(I can see dead people.)"
Not exactly a comforting reality to wake up to after an accident renders your head busted wide open and your limbs broken in enough places to mimic a human jigsaw puzzle.
In putting you back together, you're left with absolutely no memories. To make matter worse, you can't exactly seem to communicate that well - or speak for that matter - the accident made sure of that too.
Thankfully, you are greeted at your bedside by your saviors - the alarmingly attractive and enigmatic duo, Dr. Marvelous and Dr. Miracle.
_____________________________________________________________________
"Dr. Marvelous: I need you to remain as calm as possible."
"Dr. Miracle : Just NOD for YES and SHAKE your head for NO, okay sweetie?"
The pair are determined to help you in your road to recovery. But trapped between 4 walls in a series of bizarre tests and increasingly odd haunted sightings,
Something isn't quite right.

OMggggg I absolutely loved this demo <<<3 The doctors are as hot as they are insane. What more can I say? But honestly I could not recommend it more. The demo’s got me hooked!! and I would loveee to see more of it.
Thank you for playing! Glad to hear you enjoyed the demo :> Working out a plan on timelines and should be able to release an update on that soon. Cheers!
I have frequent bouts of sleep paralysis, and though this demo is not about sleep paralysis, I found the disquieting feeling that the patient felt once Vincent left, that feeling of helplessness due to their inability to move and slow mounting terror of seeing something not quite right, to be very realistically portrayed. That scene and the doctors themselves certainly left me feeling unsettled.
I'm hooked and want to learn more about the siblings' intentions and the past events that led up to the current situation. Thank you for the lovely demo.
Hello! Thank you so much for playing! I'm honoured that you enjoyed the demo. To hear that the vibe and the unsettling nature of the entities and doctors came across just right is a very validating feeling. Thank you :'>
