With retro PSX-style graphics, an ominous atmosphere, and simple yet nerve-wracking gameplay, Flicker is a perfect bite-sized horror experience. Created in just 9 days for the 1-Button Jam 2024 by Spikely, this game proves that fear doesn’t need fancy mechanics—it only needs darkness.

Gameplay Overview

Your only goal? Make it out alive.
Your only tool? A flickering lighter.
Your only challenge? Survive the shadows.

As you navigate the forest, your lighter will constantly go out—forcing you to flick it back on to keep the darkness at bay. But every flick reveals more than just the path ahead… something is watching. Something is waiting. And if you let the void take over, it takes you too.

The shadows call,
The void devours,
It takes us all.
