This game was super cool and the end completely caught me off guard. I will definitely play more games from you guys in the future. Here is my video on the game:

Who would've thought housecleaning could be so scary? I enjoyed "That Dream," but being pursued by the monster in this game gave it the added element of danger that really boosts the tension. I also love how you use the workplace as the setting for your horror games and look forward to seeing what you have in store in the future. Great job Bored Leviathan!
Very neat game, solid spoopy atmosphere ,nice monster design too. Did prefer That Dream a tiny bit over this, but this was a great game too, Lets get rid of all that strawberry jam shall we, looking forward to future games
Very interesting game. Cleaning service lol. too bad that game crashed when i almost reached end. good game. hope to see more from you in the future :)
Man this game gave me the creeps BIG TIME. I hate tight corners and dark rooms so I guess this was literally designed to scare me but, the thought of cleaning a murder house is creepier than anything.
A pretty scary game. You've nailed the whole dark atmosphere by making everything super dark and suspicious enough that the player has to keep guessing what's happening next. And I absolutely loved how the red light switches' image was subtly placed into the players' minds and they don't expect the extra one at the end to be the monster itself.
It is a great game which gets everything a ten on ten, which is a checkpoint, the environment, the monster emerging and even the maze thing at the end. The only thing I found lacking was the story, maybe adding more to a story behind why there is blood everywhere or everything is wrecked or why there is a monster would make the game perfect. If there was a story, I might have missed it, sorry about that.
But all in all, a great game to play and loved going through it! Keep up the great work and good luck!
Really quite an experience, glad I got to play it.
My main critique would be that the pacing felt a little rushed and having a deeper story/lore would be great ways to expand the concept.
Perhaps have the house seem normal for longer or have smaller details out of place that escalate into the stranger events leading up to the blood and the painting.
My current headcanon/theory is that the painting is some lovecraftian corruption that takes hold in a house like a mold, warping reality to insert itself into a room and leaking out weirdness into the home that acts to draw its victim near enough to pull it inside into the twisted mirror dimension that the creature resides in in order to feed.
Overall I really enjoyed the game, it's very well done on tension and atmosphere and it leaves me wanting to know more.
The horror game was somewhat scary? I don't know. I played it and the graphics were beautiful. The monster was terrifying as well. The rest of the critiques are near the end. Overall, it wasn't bad!
Despite losing multiple times, I enjoyed myself. Cleaning Service reminds me of those old school PC horror indies that centers around a fairly simple concept: RUN!!
This was great! The game feels very polished. Definitely brings the creep factor way up halfway through. Also got a couple hearty manly screams of terror out of me! I enjoyed this!
After going on a 10-minute journey through the horror infested lifestyle that this cleaner leads I can safely say that you have a functioning product. Minus a strange choice of words in the control screen "Shift: Walk Faster" and a few animation bugs revolving around the monsters walk cycle, you've done a really fantastic job.
The music and atmosphere wasn't anything too spectacular but was serviceable for the story. All in all, I'd say for your next game try and challenge yourself a bit more, you've shown plenty of potential and I think you could move beyond just horror mazes with jumpscares in-between.

Cool game, but i think it could be made lighter
Man this game gave me the creeps BIG TIME. I hate tight corners and dark rooms so I guess this was literally designed to scare me but, the thought of cleaning a murder house is creepier than anything.
Awesome game !!
Gameplay (español):
Took me ages to find the key but it's a fun wee game

Amazing Game, I recommend it, the vibes it gives you is amazing! hahaaha
I also made a video about it (with commentary) :D
This game was very creepy, the atmosphere was great (give my elaborate opinion at the end of the video).
The horror game was somewhat scary? I don't know. I played it and the graphics were beautiful. The monster was terrifying as well. The rest of the critiques are near the end. Overall, it wasn't bad!
anyone else shouting at their character for not running faster ? haha!
Me.
Enjoyed ypur short horror game. The maze section got me a few times, but overall nice experience.
Despite losing multiple times, I enjoyed myself. Cleaning Service reminds me of those old school PC horror indies that centers around a fairly simple concept: RUN!!
i love it mate
check my simple game too please https://bigboyaarush.itch.io/ball-roller
good game
Great game! It was short an spooky the way I like it, I added it to this compilation video!
This was a great short game! The atmosphere really kept me on edge and the monster was very well done! Keep up the good work! :)
Well when i took this job i was expecting to get paid not die!I really liked how clean the graphics were. I just think you could have made the jumpscares alittle more scary
I really like the survival aspect to this game and the monster isn't OP. The player model for the monster is TERRIFYING as well. Good work keep it up!
You've got a real knack for atmosphere with your horror games, I love it! This was SO creepy and SO dark!! Nicely done!
it was great! it'sa short and fun horror game.
This game got me really good, The scares are amplified because you couldn't see the monster and you dont know where hes going to turn up 😂
Its the 2nd one of 2 games that I played. Its starts @3:34 if you guys wanna skip right to it
This game is great! after encountering the monster in the hallway, kinda made me scared, because it was dark, and couldn't find him at all lol,
overall, I would rate it 7/10.
I added it to my 3 scary games I hope you enjoy it 😁
I'm DYING laughing playing this game
I'm DYING laughing while playing this game:
Came from your other game, cool games!
THIS GAME GOT ME BAD LOL IM STUCK I WOULD LOVE
SOME HELP
This was great! The game feels very polished. Definitely brings the creep factor way up halfway through. Also got a couple hearty manly screams of terror out of me! I enjoyed this!
Fan of your last game, this was good but I had a hard to seeing much in the darkness. First game I played in the video!
I had a great time reviewing your game!!
After going on a 10-minute journey through the horror infested lifestyle that this cleaner leads I can safely say that you have a functioning product. Minus a strange choice of words in the control screen "Shift: Walk Faster" and a few animation bugs revolving around the monsters walk cycle, you've done a really fantastic job.
