MEDICATED
A downloadable MEDICATED for Windows
MEDICATED is a short horror project created over 3 weeks.
For some, the struggle of the mind is more than just coping.
MEDICATED is a project meant to encapsulate a small fraction of some of the darkest horrors of the suffering of mental illness.

After the first 2 weeks - 1 month, I will compile a mega-compilation of my reactions to your playthroughs on my Youtube Channel ChrisALOO - YouTube where I will take your genuine feedback and apply to future projects.

YEOOOO! MUCH LOVE BRO! HAD TO REVISIT THIS AND MAKE A VIDEO <3
Part of me was really hoping you would really get to play it! The stream was really rushed, especially after that doll game! Your jumps really got me laughing so uncontrollably a lot! I really appreciate it, brother!
Sehr gruseliges, kurzes Spiel. Hat echt Spaß gemacht wobei es gleichzeitig erschreckend ist, das Menschen sowas wirklich sehen können wenn Sie eine psychische Krankheit haben... 4/5 Sternen
nice game, Kinda spooky, I liked that your spreading more awareness on mental illness especially with the message at the end, I also made a video on your game i hope you like it :D
Interesting game
I was so creeped out by the sound effects and terror! Great game and a nice message at the end of the game :)
Always glad to see another dev appreciate the effort put in! I am also glad you addressed the urgency of the message at the end. The hope is that those who are struggling who see these resources and see the urgency of Youtubers and streamers who discuss, even if briefly, the message of it all will make use of the resources, a way of showing that if they needed a sign to not hurt themselves then this was it. I am working on another short horror project as we speak, so hopefully that one will get you a bit more than this one 😉
Thank you for giving it a play! I can see it REALLY got to you! A little secret, I used a few Grudge themes because, growing up, since I saw the movie in theaters at 13, the Grudge scared the crap out of me and was what I gave to represent the darkness of my own mental health, a creeping madness I could never really escape. So I anthropomorphized my own mental health struggles into something that really did terrify me. Nowadays I have rewatched the movie a dozen times and love it. I'm working on another project that I hope gets you just as bad!
Very Scary game, can't wait for your next project.
Great horror! Each room had me so anxious for what was coming next!
Thank you for giving MEDICATED a playthrough! I'm glad I nailed the unsettling and unpredictable atmosphere! Ironically, you are one of the few that noticed the shadow moving past the door! Not many people caught that 🤣 I also thank you for making it a point to show that first slide in the ending scene showing more statistics. It wasn't until after I saw a few playthroughs that I realized not everyone reads as fast as I can 😅 With that said, I thank you for making it a point to do that and made the resources openly available, the more people who can see that, the more people who need help can access it and hopefully get the help they need.
Thank you for giving it a play! I see the mannequin really did get you! No one expected it! I'm glad a good amount of the scares had an effect! I also want to thank you for hanging on at the end to urge your viewers to make use of the resources provided at the end. In the end, that was a goal of this project, to bring awareness to the topic and give people some much needed resources to help those suffering from mental illness, and I thank you for helping to further that at the end of the video. I have a new project in the works that will hopefully give a good few more scares 😉
Had a great time playing this game!
Thank you for giving it a play! I can see some of the scares really got to you 😂😂😂 I'm glad it was able to get you! I'm working on another project, so hopefully this new one will be just as spooky 😉
Nice game
Would you believe me if I told you that I LITERALLY just watched your video before you posted??? Given, I don't speak traditional Chinese, but I did pick up a few times you used English lol. I do appreciate you giving it a go, and I am glad you got spooked a few times! I am working on setting up some type of resource page, or finding one like it, where people can go to access mental health resources in their country if that is something a given country has, so the resources wont be strictly US in that sense. With that in mind, thank you again for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for giving it a go! I could tell based on camera movement that you took a lot of the scares in stride! I applaud you for that! I based a lot of those scares on some nightmare themes I have had before, so looks like you would survive, to some degree, in that environment! Hopefully my next 3 week project will make you jump a few times!
Awesome game! I think the message behind it is absolutely right and important!
Thank you for giving it a play! Admittedly, my German could use some brushing up on, so I had to rely on google translate to fully understand your commentary properly as picking up only a few words here and there wouldn't do it justice. Thank you for ensuring the resources, even if they are not native to your country. I am working on setting up a resource page, or finding one, where people can go to access mental health resources in their country, assuming those resources are available in their given country. Regardless, I thank you for playing and I'm glad you were able to see the underlying message in it all, seeing you at the end really displayed, to me, your humanity and understanding of it. Thank you again for giving it a go! It means a lot!
My honest opinion about you: Unfortunately there are too few people like you! I am very happy to support such projects that help people!
am i the only person who cant even open the door at the beginning?? i have no idea how to open it and i feel really dumb lol
ive watched others play it and it looks good but unfortunately i cant give me own actual opinion on it because of the damn door..
You need to be close to the door and press E, if you are using the mouse button then you are using the wrong input. That one is for picking up things :)
loved the game and the message I put it in my three free horror games video in spot 3 seriously great game.
Welcome back to Three Free Horror Games On PC the series where I test out new indie horror games and give them a rating. Todays games go more on the comedy side of horror with games designed in 3 weeks or less for game Jam come check them out and see what the indie community has in store for usThank you very much for giving MEDICATED a play! Im glad to see a few if the scares got you! I was honestly especially proud of one of the rooms where it says "I see you," and Im honestly pleased it had an effect. Thank you as well for making it a point to express the importance of the mental health resources at the end. So long as at least one person benefits from it, then this project was not in vain ☺️
hey no worries and of course Im a strong believer of directing people to the proper resourses they need. Keep up the amazing work

VERY GOOD HORROR
Thenk you for playing! I can tell some of the scares got you based on camera movement. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much for playing! I'm glad you got a few good spooks out of it 😉 Also, thank you for putting the suicide prevention information in your video description. S long as at least one person sees it, then it served its purpose.
awww I agree completely. Thank you so much!!
Hello, I played this game and I really liked it, the concept was really good, and it displayed in the game pretty well too, good work :)
Thank you for playing! Atmosphere is just as important as the scares in any game, so to nail down the vibe is a fantastic thing to hear. Im glad you enjoyed it!
Very good atmosphere in this game spooky very creepy but also touching on some very real things that people go through in day to day life having seen my wife go through it in the past I know what its like.
Thank you for giving it a play! Mental Illness is a sensative topic and one that is hard to portray in an interactive medium like games without losing the theme to people who don't understand it. Im sorry for your wife having to struggle with it. It is a very trying life being knee deep in the muck of the mind for any length of time.

DEEP STORYIt was fairly deep, even if it was short. If anything, it was sort of a macabre retelling of my own experience in mental wards. Thank you for giving it a play!
i really liked it and im gonna apologies in advance for all the ranting after i finished the game ... i hope you enjoy the first half of my video as entertainment cuz the second half was serious :)
No, dont apologize for the talk you had at the end. This is one of the stigmas I wanted to try and break with this project, even if just a little bit. You showed you understood it better than the average person, and I thank you for sharing your understanding of Mental Health. I enjoyed your reactions, I waited for some parts just to get a good laugh. Im glad you enjoyed it!
it was a pleasure !!! and i hope to see more work like this in the future :)
You certainly will! Im already in the design stages of a new project!
Short and sweet little horror. Does what it says on the tin. Great message behind it :)
Thank you for playing! Im glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for putting the mental health resources in your description as well, that will help anyone who needs it
