a few years later I recorded a longplay of the Wretcher Demo:

This is a beautiful game, Alan. Clock Tower is one of my top ten favorite games of all time, and I'm delighted that someone is trying to make more games in that vein. Please finish this. It's an amazing demo.
@Kody: the uncertainty is only about the time, it will be done no matter what, I haven't come this far for naught ;)
But you're right I'll need an english proofreader for the real deal, so he can suggest me proper sentences, I may read many english books but still, not actually speaking the language is a big disadvantage.
It's a short trip, but the graphics are beautiful! I love the film-grain effect and bleak colors. It's obviously inspired by Clock Tower, which is a brilliant game and has an interface that works better on PC than on a gamepad anyway.
The sounds are highly effectual. Love the font.
The puzzles could be a bit more interesting and difficult, and your grammar could use some grooming.
In the "How-to" it mentioned you might complete this game in a year or two. Drop the "might" and I'll give you all my money.
It ends too short leaving you with an amazing urge. Initially what appears to be a clock tower clone, suddenly within the first one minutes changes into one of the most weird and scary games, that there have been in my computer screen.
