You have to decide if you want to play into all the Meta Commentary or make the Game more serious and scary.
It breaks the immersion if you have so many "Jokes" in it. The clapping mechanic is great, and the interactions could be a bit snappier.
Some things appear/disappear suddenly, stuff in the fridge etc. but those are details.
I loved the ending and chase sequence, very well done and that was really scary. But please revise how you tell the Story, it's always a bad cliché to tell the Player right at the beginning, that something bad happened and will happen to him, just leave this untold.
And the Arms are attached to the head, and don't move when interacting, maybe don't make it physics interactions next time and just make a short animation for the arm when interacting.
The Neighbour says it, the Flyer, the Cop etc. etc. it's way too much, focus on the scary moments, and leave the meta-jokes out. Really good Job!
I always wondered how this clapping system works. If wife and husband claps loud enough, do the lights keep turning on and off? Or is there some kind of anti-continuous-clap protection?
Actually really scary and pretty creative for your first game. I encountered a minor bug that made me have to restart, but overall I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to more. Game starts at 1:25:00
Amazing for a first game. Did give me chills because of the aesthetic and visuals. The interactions in this game was a nice calming moment, and the minor tasks were convincing. Do I have any complaints or advice for future projects? Hm, mainly to make it bigger, make the story longer and the gameplay longer (which is actually just a compliment! I wanted MORE!!). Other than that, seeing as this is the first of your series, I'm very much looking forward to your other games! 6.5-7/10!

Genuinely very good game! Quite scary, especially for your first one. Will definitely be checking out future games.
Nothing like fighting off a demon during a house sitting job Buba

Awesome game. Can’t wait for the next episode!
(Grove Street in this game?)
I always thought clap on lights would be perfect for a horror game.
Amazing job you blew it out of the park!
About time that Infomercial became a Horror game Gameplay Mechanic!!
This is my first time playing this type of game. It has unique gameplay and a great storyline. Keep it up, and thank you for making the game.
great job. didn't think "the clapper" would be something to terrify me in a game. loved the atmosphere

Clap on, Clap Off, The Clapper!
One of the BEST games I've EVER played, such a good game.

Had a minor panic attack during the chase - 5 stars
Would've loved some jump scares when you're turning on the lights via clapping though
Gameplay if you're interested (18:55 for the chase):

Explore the rooms 0/6 but it's not counting any progress and the branch-rooms stay forever dark except for the livingroom-diningroom-kitchen
You have to clap when you go in the rooms to turn the lights on. It's Q if I remember correctly.
