Just an idea at the moment, but
your this girl ....you start noticing weird faces in your selfie pictures... on closer inspection its the face of this boy thats been stalking you
Now, turn that into a game/experience

I think the gameplay in this is going to be basically the girls revision for exams, answering maths questions, History, knowledge ...stuff like that
Punctuated by pure terror

Been doing a bit of work
The game is basically set on your desk... all you see is your daily diary, calculator some coffee and general clutter also a mirror that faces a closet behind you.
You have some real word homework to finish to basically pass the day
But the problem is, you are crippled by fear, paranoid according to others... you keep "imagining " the shadow of some guy behind you , but when you check the mirror no body is there...though you can see shadows come over your desk Your feelings are reflected in the diary that gets more and more freaked out.
One day you get a camera phone ....

Me to, i cant even test my own game,the more i develop the story the more it freaks me out
but just wait till you see the selfie, thats the true horror.
At the moment the games about the human coping mechanism, the stuff we convince ourselves to justify deep trauma.
Ive changed the script somewhat, its basically about this alien home invasion/kidnapping.. well, thats the her theory, as she cannot see her attacker..
The worst thing about this game is you cannot die. The nightmare never ends

I was up till 4am, putting in my new mechanic, a ton of new stuff...
The mechanic is you need a combo of the right music playing, looking at the right thing and on the right page of your diary to invoke the star man
Still working on it.
Wont be an update for a couple of days, but this is , INSANE.

I like the diary pieces, they really made me sink into the game. The breathing might be a little too loud, or is starting off too loud, maybe it could build up from a quieter volume. Another part i didn't quite get is to whom the shadow belongs.. is it your own head or the person behind you? It might fit if it is your own, but as you said in your description that you see a shadow of another person, i assumed it belongs to the other guy. In that case it looks kinda flat, and shouldn't move together with the pencil. I think the game has potential, but it there is too much stuff happening right at the beginning, i think it should start off less hectic, maybe with less shaking also, to make the player understand the situation.

This is going to the rift, ill keep you updated, its going to be insane
and this is why
as you start, you see you legs in a bin in front of you , thus, thats the question of why you can only move your head sort of answered.

Wow, I was going to say that this was great just based on the idea in the main post, but after watching the actual progress, it has turned into something entirely different, but equally great, just from another perspective; it went from being something that I found great out of a humorous (although creepy, of course) perspective, into something that really is just great from an atmospheric perspective – nothing humorous left about it, but very, very unsettling. Very, very well done.
The breathing sounded like a male. Was it supposed to be the victim's or the stalkers breathing? And if it was the victim, and the victim's the one at the desk, what is up with the body parts? Who did that? If the victim's just a normal person afraid of being stalked, why is she in a room with dismembered limbs?
At first, I thought it was the stalker at the table, because of the sound of the breathing giving me the impression of a male, and I imagined that he had already killed the girl, because of the body parts, and was reading his stolen diary. But after a while, and especially when the closet appeared in the mirror shard and the shadow eventually approached from the background, that seemed not to be the case either. I need some explanations!
Great, great sense of mood, anyhow.

Really curious about this. Why no screenshots? just one would help spark more interest IMO.

Im realy toying with the idea that you basically have to sit in the game(oculus rift) for 7 full days
