FLATHEAD
A downloadable game for Windows
Hello, friend
"If you're reading this, chances are things aren't looking too hot. But that's alright - take a deep breath and focus. Today is special, as they like to remind us.
It's a simple game they got us playin’ and you're gonna do just fine.
Ya pull the lever, ya see a number. Guess if the next number is higher or lower and, if you’re right, ya get some points and ya get to keep right on playin’.
If you’re wrong, well… let's not worry about that... You’re gonna do just fine.
Now, I know what you're thinking. That sounds too simple. And maybe it is. But when the timer starts ticking and the Sunken start grinding their teeth out in the fields and you can hear them clackin and crackin as they inch closer and closer, well, maybe simple’s ok. Maybe you just want a game to play before they send you back down and simple's just fine for that.
I heard one of us escaped years ago but who knows if that's true, could be somethin they tell us just to give us hope. Anyway, it's my turn. Wish me luck."

FLATHEAD is a game of chance and luck for the highest of stakes… your very existence.
While the goal is simple, and there are tools at your disposal, don’t look back too often because… it is coming.

a wonderful game of chance
This is one of the craziest games I've ever played and I had the fortune of recording my reaction to it! I tried professionally voicing my experience playing. DOPE GAME!!
Game was amazing!
The asking value and the entertainment I got is an absolute steal!
Wish the clown was utilized more for the scares XD
Check out my play through if you get the time!
Here is my tribute to this game, brought on Steam...
Games pretty tense I enjoyed it, might return to it now that it's gotten an update

i was soooo close to beating it lmao
Very very good!!!! I love this game. Plans for more languages?
Pretty cool, alittle bit of rage from the RNG lol
3 Rounds, with acouple unlocked tapes at the start (NO Commentary)
This game is so well done and such a good successor to Silkbulb Test. I definitely want and need more games like this. Gameplay and sound work wonderfully to keep you on edge with this already tension filled game.
The gambling game is simple, which I think works well as it makes you focused more on the approaching footsteps and other scares.
It was definitely worth collecting all of the tapes to learn more lore about the structure and the Spectograms. I'm really looking forward to the release of Silkbulb, it's been on my wishlist for a while now; Flatheads made for a nice intro into the world.
This game is simple, but intense! Really enjoying it so far.
There seems to be a minor bug in v1.0 that occurs on my system after losing the over/under game to Mr. Footsteps. Everything slows down significantly at that point and doesn't recover. Exiting and reloading fixes the issue.
Excellent experience otherwise. Thanks!
Tim Oxtons games are unique and I always look forward to what weird tension and 'characters' he can create.
such a great game! super creepy and love the visuals!
Higher Or Lower except you COULD DIE... little dramatic I know.

Very cool game!
