About this game

They want to talk… You want to run!

Don't Stare is a narrative stealth platformer about avoiding extroverts who want to talk to you! You play as the Introvert, trying your best to bring your friendship group back together after a party gone wrong shatters it. Jump, climb, slide, bounce, and flip your way through a journey of friendship, loneliness, and finding yourself in the midst of chaos!

By making and breaking eye contact with extroverts, trigger their abilities to help you navigate a wild, hand-drawn city full of unforgettable and nostalgic visuals at locations like the Grocery Store, the Gym, and Your House. Avoid pushy salespeople and try not to get destroyed by screaming babies!

Features

  • Experience a cartoony and heartwarming coming of age story of five friends who have their own struggles and challenges

  • Avoid a ridiculous cast of extroverts in a frantic, but forgiving stealth platformer.

  • Use eye contact tactically to trigger extrovert abilities to progress

  • Try your hand at an easy to use, hard to master optional parkour system that lets you traverse levels faster, but with more danger.

  • Complete game show-esque “boss battles” with difficult questions like “when are you going to settle down?”

  • Decorate your room with furniture and items from all kinds of styles and countries

  • Customize your Introvert with a series of expressive hoodies, trousers, skirts, footwear, accessories and more

  • Lose yourself in a beautiful and unique soundtrack

  • When extroverts drain your social energy, pet animals to recharge your social batteries and save your progress

Wishlisting helps a bunch!
