►About the Game -
Guarding the graveyard shift is often considered one of the most terrifying jobs globally, but night guarding at Whispering Winds Cemetery surpasses any other cemetery in horror! Being Night Security in this place will turn into a nightmare for you that you may never forget.
You play as a character named Gary, who must go to Whispering Winds Cemetery for his first workday and guard it from 5 PM to 8 AM the next day.
Initially, everything seems calm, but shortly after, conditions change, and gradually, the cemetery becomes a hell for Gary. Through surveillance cameras, Gary notices strange things, initially thinking they're only visible in the camera feed. However, as he walks among the graves, he realizes he must endure the most terrifying night of his life!
In creating this game, we aimed to focus on a sense of responsibility and genuine fear, rather than designing vague and tedious puzzles in the gameplay. We used realistic graphics and 3D sound to enhance the fear-inducing experience for the player.

ok but i lost it when chris mocked the grammar on the sign on the body in the coffin and it immediately rose like "tf you say??"

Thank you ❤

[@ElijahNMitchell]

Things to make sure Chris loves your game: 1) working toilet / item in toilet 2) the ability to leave immediately or attempt to with a reason to stay

[@deployedkitty]

the first thing is just Chris being Chris and it's often funny as hell but the second thing is actually crucial because giving the player just that tiny bit of choice can make a game a lot better but no! as with most horror game walking simulators we were lead around on a rail and as Chris comments at some point we should even be able to at least just climb over that very low graveyard wall and leave

[@Marcellat]

😂😂😂 Yeah the working toilets!! Now when I watch gameplays, if the character goes by toilet I scream “See if works”!!!🤩🤩🤩

[@jettoscranda]

@@Marcellat I always try at least one toilet in games to see if it works :)

[@Scriptor13]

Nope. No security guard gig at a demon-dominated cemetary for me. Father Creepy can take his job and go straight to "the Hell." 👀😆 Pretty effective atmosphere. Too bad the game was strictly linear--some good ol' CJU exploration would've added to the spookiness. Still, it was an enjoyable 55-minute watch. Thanks, Chris.

[@scaredyjew]

When I played this I kept locking the door with the slider, every time I went into the CCTV shed. I was NOT trusting a damn thing in that cemetery. 😅

[@BASSOSOVIETICO1987]

There was too much linear guiding. I think some wandering on the graveyard with unexpected events would work better but overall I liked this idea. They should revitalize it in future!

[@vivicaophelia]

The guy you asked to leave walked like Michael Myers going after someone 😂

[@nesnahprotsdam]

Super janky, but enjoyable with some decent jumpscares. Very classical indie-horror game.

[@KeyframeHolder]

I loved the game's atmosphere. The scariest thing for me was that crusty bed. I wouldn't dare take a nap there.

[@MaximumRD]

When I did security years ago they asked for a volunteer for a site, our city cemetery overnight, specifically for HALLOWEEN since some people want to cause mischief. It was, interesting, I am sure people were sneaking about, maybe it was imagination, I didn't mind it really overall, it's located beside a mountain and I did get a little spooked thinking I saw something just before sunrise but it just turned out to bee some Deer that came off the mountain lol. I'd have done it again given the opportunity because for the most part, it was quiet and peaceful.

[@SplitxHeart]

"The lock has been changed!" Who would do such a thing? Me, seeing the S symbol on it: "Superman!" :D (probably Satan more likely but... first thoughts ya know?)

[@AlDano]

I love how he used a rivet tool to cut the battery wire!😂

[@jeffreyoldham55]

I caught that as well. 🤨

[@suneater7587]

That was a little rough around the edge but it was enjoyable! I would've LOVED a different ending- it started with us driving the car up to the entrance gate, and now imagine how cool it would be if the game looped at the end! You drive away, you think you've escaped - and then the entrance gate comes into view again and the game starts anew. I would've preferred that almost over the actual ending we got 😅😂 anyways, I enjoyed it, it was fairly entertaining. Thank you for playing!!!

[@isaiasjuarez9041]

Man I can't wait for you to play "Hollow Cocoon" and "Silence Channel 2" Hell yeah!!! Let's go CJU!!!

[@Br0kenM1nded]

I'm curious how many people have worked the graveyard shift close to an actual graveyard and weird stuff happens thinking it's sleep deprivation but it's in fact paranormal related

[@ionlycreatedthistochatonvideos]

Mate of mine owns a house with a graveyard as his backyard. It's been in his family for God knows how long. As far as I know, the only thing that's been really scary are the screams of foxes.

[@schnetzelschwester]

@@ionlycreatedthistochatonvideos Years ago my husband and I had rented a home with a graveyard directly at the backyard. We were the only applicants for it, even though it was in a big city with housing shortage. We loved the deadly silent neighborhood, the old trees, the cute wildlife like tawny owls and many other birds, foxes, martens, and the cosy red lights at night. I cried when we had to move away because the landlord needed the house for his daughter.

[@lilyn7497]

​​@@schnetzelschwesterWow, that's skeevy. "Needed" it for his daughter 🙄 What a shame you couldn't stay

[@dreamysheepstudios]

I swear, Chris can make any horror game actually relaxing to watch 😂 I’ve just been wrapping myself in a warm blanket and would wind down to watch them at night

[@ianvarney2112]

The jank helps make the game more goofy and less scary.

[@breasthound]

So I'm not the only one after all.

[@Elfmaiden2004]

The translations were super rough. But the story and the jump scares and such were creepy and fun. I laughed with the skeleton in the wheelchair and creepy Jesus behind him. Overall not a bad game!

[@Zothiqueness]

Vermeer is rolling in his grave. I laughed so hard at the footprints in clusters of 3.

[@terra7283]

It is an interesting one despite its flaws, but fun. Love how spirits say to help them but not giving ibstructions and you messing it up. One hell of a first nightshift😂. Also Chris you driving left in the end mostly like a true English man 😂, no wonder you crashed😊. Game did look good for the atmosphere and such. Would have like a bit more story maybe about Elias. But it worked for a fun play through over all.

[@yokaidokena3659]

The Engrish was strong in this one. I often wonder why these indie devs don't rely on a native speaker to translate for them, or even use an online translator.....or both. It really would bring a much better experience to the game. Overall though, it wasnt too terribly bad and some of the jump scares worked. It would be refreshing to NOT have the tropes pay off immediately in favor of subverted scares.

[@ananananabop]

Oh this looks fun! *gets to the girl with the pearl earring scare* ...oh.

[@Adam-sd2ow]

I just completed A Plague Tale Requiem and you should finish your play through. If you think Plague Tale Innocence got you in the feels, Requiem is a whole new level, plus in terms of side characters Arnaud the aging knight would quickly become one of your favourite characters.

[@jamesrogers152]

That first guy sounded like Emperor Palpatine

[@RuSosan]

Sounded like a late teen doing a Palpatine impression. Which, I assume, is exactly the voice actor. Not the best choice for a middle-aged priest for sure.

[@TheKevphil]

Gotta love a job that forces you to take frequent naps on duty! *_LOL_*

[@claudiagalasso5530]

one of these days, some game studio will see your videos with always trying to do first the smart thing, to leave immediately and not go trough the horrors and im sure they will be like.. Hmm, lets make one secret bonus final ending for fun. A player will be able to complete the game immediately right at the start of the game, just be leaving lol. I can already imagine SJUs big smile trough the entire game video coz of it.

[@TheMasterwitcher]

This already exists. Not sure if in a horror game but it exists.

There's plenty of indie horror games where you can do that. James has actually played some.

Thanks for another interesting horror game! I actually thought this would be like the Mortuary Assistant where the protagonist has a chance to survive and continue with another procedurally generated shift, but look like this first shift is his very last.

Hey CJU. I got some noodles, cherries and eggplants for the graveyard shift! 🍜🍆🍒

[@fredd3233]

Talk about "so bad it's good" ^^ Between the broken English, mediocre voice acting, and mention of the dead "Ghost rock band" (I'm sure that'd make them laugh), I can't choose what was the most cheesy aspect of this thing. But the game does look good (when you can see something). As always, Chris' commentary tremendously elevated this poor material, making this quite an entertaining hour !

[@deployedkitty]

yes and the unusually mundane door leading into the ancient and beautifully decorated chapel was also a sign of pure slav jank personally i believe the most cheesy aspect was that the player wasn't at any point given a single choice and were instead lead around like on a rail this was just another horror game walking simulator

[@joshsnow7243]

Another entertaining gameplay!!! It is just interesting that Chris subconciously drove on the Left lane on a left hand drive car.... Ahahahahaha! ;) shows where he is from ahahahaha.... Happy Holidays!

[@Lumiria]

You're right, this game needed some QA checks lol. Some of the jumps were good tho ngl. Nice job, Chris.

[@NGMonocrom]

Watching this because I work security and I work the Graveyard shift. Though not at an actual cemetery. The bed is completely out of place. No client wants security sleeping on the job during their shift. But, enjoyed the game-play video. 🪦⚰️

[@amca68]

Damn me if I didn't hear John Hurt from the priest. Fun playthrough. 👍

[@angelareynolds4373]

I enjoyed this one. It does need some work here and there, but it was fun to watch.😁👍

[@ValosiTiamata]

I've gotta admit, as someone who nearly cored a job as a gravedigger a few years back (my therapist actually said it was perfect for me), I'm rather disappointed in this one. Graveyard horror needs to be a lot more open-ended, allowing the player to actually roam the cemetery and encounter things at their own pace.Sure, the security cam aspect has its merits, but by now that mechanic's as overdone as a Christmas ham left in the oven all weekend. Basing so much of the game on viewing the camera, then requiring the player to follow the rails was a terrible call. If you have to do Observation Duty in a graveyard, at least make events random and allow players to spot the anomalies on their own (ramping up the horror when they fail to address one). But there should also have been a few random encounters or easter eggs that didn't rely on the cameras. One thing I will agree on, though, is they did a good job overall with atmosphere. Make things more open, rely less on a camera mechanic and forcing the player onto rails, and add some randomness to the game, and this could be really good. For referfence, I'd have to say Mortuary Assistant is a perfect example of what this game could have been.

[@RuSosan]

Yeah, if the graveyard had been bigger with more roaming, exploring and slow buildup of tension during normal tasks this would've worked better, methinks. The graveyard looked great aesthetically IMO.

[@trickery2268]

" 'I'll go check the crying' *No you fucking won't*" thank you for that beautiful quote, CJU. But yeah, you're right on the money with your comments, I think! It's very rough in various areas - some cliches, lots of noticeable repetition, the grammar - but it did have a fun little idea at the core of it, and there were some good jumpscares in there.

[@GrumpyOldMilk]

Pain by numbers horror. Like someone might find it scary if they had never played a horror game, or seen a horror movie ever in their entire life.

[@Saint_Sekyuritai2849]

Quite accurate to real security work during a graveyard shift. 10 out of 10.

[@mary_anntalbot5670]

It was nice, wish we survived the end though 😁

[@gagaplex]

Gotta say, because the graphics are actually quite good, I do sort of miss the complete lack of mouth movements. It's actually far easier to ignore that when the entire game is intentionally made to look like it's from the N64 or PS1 era. With graphics like these, _some_ sort of movement would've been appreciated.

Long shot but does anyone remember a demo of a game CJ played years ago, that was a first person horror adventure game that ended with a jump scare of a man with an axe or something on the other side of a window in a door?
