Alternate Watch
A downloadable game for Windows
This game was released May of 2022 in a semi-unfinished state but due to sudden interest the game has since been updated (April 2023) to add certain content and polish missing from the original release.
A Mandela Catalogue (pre Vol.4) themed I'm on Observation Duty type game.
Report Anomalies until 6 am to beat the game.
Development for this project began in February of 2022 and ended in May of 2022 with a small update in June of 2022 and 2nd update in April of 2023.
This game was developed in Unreal Engine 5 and supports Lumen Global Illumination which can be expensive to run so disable it in the settings menu if you have performance issues.
Anomaly Types (also listed in game Pause Menu):
Imagery - Paintings/Artwork/Pictures Changing
Displacement - Object Changing Location
Mimic - Duplicate Object or Object Attempting to Blend In
Flawed - Flawed Impersonator (Distorted Human)
Pure Form - Shadow Figure with White Eyes
Preacher - Cloaked Figure Obscured and Constant Whispering
Electrical - Electronics (Lights, TVs, Radio, PCs, Camera Error)
Tulpa - Seen only in Mirrors
Corpse - This is now in the game
Unknown - Cannot be classified
Open Doors are not Displacements
It means someone has entered the home.
This game does NOT have a MAC/iOS/Android/Linux port.
I have provided a RAR version for those unable to download the ZIP version.

I've downloaded, redownloaded, fucked up that redownload and fixed it to redownload again but no matter what i do these couple textures in the living room are completely absent. aside from it looking weird as hell it hasn't affected my gameplay but i figure it should be known.the affected textures appear to only be the left speaker and that underside part of the TV, i have had no other texture issues but also don't wish to mess around in the actual code of the game to figure out what's wrong.
It’s a really good short game.
I wish there is some period with no anomalies. It is quite difficult to spot displacement when you don’t know how the room originally looks like. At least, the game is quite short and I can just re-play it.
how do you play it i ddont knoww how
you have to extract the ZIP and run the .exe called Alternate Watch
AAAAA I SAW MIMIC

l found lt found it!!!!!!
Just want to say that I absolutely love this game. The feeling and vibe is amazing.
Does anyone know what the AES key is for this game?
I've heard about this game a lot, and it seems that this gme is going to be really fun to play as it is inspired by Mandela Catelogue!
my mother scared me at the worst time before I even downloaded lo
that's real, I was mid-game playing with a friend and my very vocal cat decided it was a great time to meow pitifully at the top of the stairs.

FUHHHH NO
Yo man Im trying to download the game and both .rar and .zip dont work it keep saying "fatal error". now im trying to download the old zip
...
I love this game, but I think that you should add a difficulty modifier. I've played it quite a few times now and am consistently winning, it would be cool to have a higher difficulty to challenge me and others.
what do i need to download instead of the zip and rar games, because it says Microsoft C++ is missing
You're probably missing the Microsoft C++ libraries. Unless you know that you need the ARM64 version, download and install the x64 release.
I'm a big fan of this, I'm new to the genre..
uhm... hey, i try to open the game but it said it needs "microsoft visual C++". so, do i need to download it ?
Edit : even the rar file. both zip and rar
You're probably missing the Microsoft C++ libraries. Unless you know that you need the ARM64 version, download and install the x64 release.
thanks, i'll try that.
Hello! I would like to contact you through email and discuss some ideas regarding your game ( i love it btw). Thank you for your time!

PLEASE ONE VERSION FOR APPLE PLSSS
(i need play this game)
srry dude you need to get windows
i can't start the game because it says that some components are missing. can someone help me pls?
Try re-downloading the game and make sure you download the right one. If you are still unable to play, try downloading the .rar file located under the .zip file. If that still doesn't work, then I don't know, sorry.
Can you add the Arabic language? That would be very cool and the game would be very popular plese
no, let the game be.
why? why can't they have arabic?
it'd take days to do sth with translation, so...
