A Husk At Dusk invites you to step into Stanley the Scarecrow's magical corn maze. You'll be met with puzzles and challenges along the way in this autumn themed adventure. For those who complete Stan's maze there is a ... great reward waiting.

This is Lump Hammer Games' first release and we hope you enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed making it! We dedicate this game to the memory of Stanley Bell (1948-2011) who loved video games, corny jokes and a good maze.

Fun! The written interaction adds a fun element and keeps me guessing what's next. So glad you made the sinkholes stay visible. I was pulling out my hair for a while wondering how to get the block into place at the end!! (I'm not used to problem-solving!) Thanks !!! :)

Hi, I loved this game on WEB, but when I tried downloading it, it did work, but it downloads as a .gb file, maybe you can add a .zip file instead? thanks!!

"I'm gonna be honest, this is probably one of the best GB Studio games that I've ever played. The music, the art, and even just the humor that this game has is enough to make me love this game a lot! And I really like the... great reward that we get at the end of the game, it's adorable."

Wow! Thank you SO much for the incredible compliments!! :D AND for taking the time to record your gameplay! Nice job, btw! You got all questions right on the first go and found plenty of gopher holes. XD

We're so glad you enjoyed our game! Thanks for playing! <3

This was super great! I loved the style, and the cute little ghostie guy reminds me of why I love this season so much!

The only critique I can give is that the sound when Stan warps + the gopher holes is a *little* too sharp, and I think it could be toned down just a sinch.

Overall I loved it, and I can't wait to see what more you do!

Simple puzzle game with a strong theme. The part with the holes was a bit tedious but I pushed through it. The narrative is comedic and well written. I like how the music changed as the night progressed. Solid project overall.

Thanks so much! Glad you made it through and we really appreciate the lovely comments! <3
