I Recorded two Sirenhead games hope you dont mind, I loved your game i hope you will consider expanding the idea . the art style was awesome really brought me back and the sound desgin on Sirenhead was as unearving as you'd expect
Mac users: Before downloading this, be aware that it will NOT run on OSX Catalina without a modification to it. You will only be able to run it after doing a code update in Terminal yourself. Here's what you need to do:
1: Download the app and put it in your Applications folder 2: Right click on it and choose "Show Package Contents"
3: Open the "Contents" folder 4: Open the "MacOS" folder 5: When you see the "Siren Head v1.0" app, you'll need to open the Terminal from within that folder (You can Google how to do this if you don't know - it's easy) 6: Once you've got Terminal open, cut and paste this into the terminal and hit Return: (no quotes) "chmod +x Siren\ Head\ v1.0"
7: Close Terminal and then go back to the App and double-click. It should now run.
You have to do this because of the new security settings that Apple put into the Catalina OS. Hopefully the developers will patch this soon but if you do the above, it WILL work.
Pros and cons are down below. Check out my vid (the game is the third there):
Advantages:
1. I love the sound design and different ques for Siren Head.
2. I appreciate the comments that main character does upon noticing strange things.
Disadvantages:
1. Too short!
2. That is very strange that Siren Head just allows you to bypass him. Though, it may be his normal rection. Still, he can stand still while hunting but after noticing a prey, I don't think he would act like that.
Overall:
Enjoyed the game a lot! I can't wait for the full version. I think right now it need a bit more polish. Though, I need to admit that Siren Head became popular because of this game, so thanks so much for creating it!
i find that the itch.io game client works better with most of the games vs download it and opening it as an app. hope you find a way to fix it and get to play the game.
Yo I loved playing this game on my channel!! I was so ready to do a long video on it , sadly the game was short. I really hope you make it into a full game.
oh wow. this is a terrific new creature. the game was short and atmospheric. really nailed the sound design with the creature. oddly, this is the first time hearing about this creature and still gave me goosebumps after playing it 3 times. something with the sound and how well it crawls up your neck and arms. the feeling of dread.
i would love to play a full game of this. looking forward to the other games from you .
I split this video with another game about siren head, hope you dont mind ? 😂 I've known about this game for a while but i thought i'd get involved with the hype, because you are like the first dev to get behind this
Also if you would be interested in doing a discord interview on my channel over discord about the inspiration behind the game, that would be really cool :)
it's not that great , and it's also too short , you can literally finish it in 2 minutes. Also you could have putten more effort into the sirenhead model , like add some details , i get that it's ps1 style but
it was made for a ps1 game jam, they literally made the game in 5 minutes. plus, it was meant to be short and sweet, the rest of it would come with creativity and imagination.
Quite honestly i loved the immersive game-play and ambiance, this game never fails to provide a scare with its atmosphere, I recently saw Trevor Henderson's hyper-realistic artwork of his original creature 'Siren Head' on his twitter page and it welled up a curiosity inside me; Is there a game based on this? This game was just.. nostalgic as well.. The PSX graphics really add to the feel. 4.5/5 - An atmosphere you may never forget; Well done!
I really like that such short game has multiple endings. Not gonna lie I didnt know abt siren head before, but this game made me more interested into it. keep up good job
Siren Head is as scary as it is minimalistic, sporting a dread filled atmosphere, and some of the best creepy sounds you will ever hear in a horror game.

Siren Head was the first game i played of the three games main downside is it's very short
i made a video about this game
gameplay : 10/9
graphics : this is a jam.
easy to escape : Very freaking easy

really 5 minutes? wow
I really want to donate COZ I FREAKING LOVE THIS GAME!!!SORRY THAT I COULDN'T DO IT
Cannot be played on Mac OS Cataliana. But good game.
Uh... Actually, it can. I tried it, and it made the graphics lower quality than they would have been otherwise, but it worked just fine.
But on my computer it cannot be started. Maybe it is 32bit.
*pop* Noice

Siren Head is as scary as it is minimalistic, sporting a dread filled atmosphere, and some of the best creepy sounds you will ever hear in a horror game.
Loved this. Looking forward to more, especially if it has this kind of aesthetic. Keep it coming!
Loved the graphics and sound, as well as the idea- never would have expected the monster to be like that even though it was obvious in the title- LOL!
