A downloadable operating system


Literally everyone knows this situation: 

You enter the attic of your dead grandpa, to boot up his old PC. You want something to remember him by, so you search the computer for all of the old music tracks he used to write for you. 

When that old tube monitor starts to sing with the voices of a thousand little flickers, you realize that the operating system has been haunted! 



Forget about dark dungeons, creepy churches or cemeteries. From now on you can experience all those unspeakable horrors in the best way possible: In a seated, slightly hunched over position - right in front of your computer.


Maybe you would like to format your hard drive and listen to a spooky story? How about some creepy tunes while doing your taxes? Just give Slushy a little boop on the nose with your mouse cursor and he will help right away!


  • A short and sweet visual novel about making new friends and remembering old ones.
  • Getting spooked by the horrors of a slightly outdated operating system.
  • Clicking on things!
  • Listening to some bleeps and bloops!
  • Talking to the creeps, inhabiting your grandpas computer and helping them with their struggles!
  • There is Slushy and we even have Boogie, the ghost! That's two creepers to get you nice and spooky!

I had so much fun playing this and I laughed so much. Maybe we just have the same sense of humor.
It was so wholesome, thank you!!

This just made my day! I'm so glad you liked it. Had a blast watching your video and hearing your impressions of Boogie and Slushy. And those cool illustrations in the thumbnail? Legendary! You're the best, stay spooky!

Cool art style. No Gamepad support? Will you put on steam?

Thank you so much!! Gamepad & Steam are not planed at the moment, sorry.

A super sweet story. I was super impressed with the visual aesthetics and presentation; the graphics and art style came together nicely. I was pretty much chuckling the whole time. Slushy and Boogie are precious! The music as well was lovely. Well done everyone!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed our little OS!

This was really cute! Short and sweet, and I really got to love Slushy and Boogie by the end. Nicely done! :)

I'm glad you liked the game! Oh, and I just heard back from Slushy and Boogie, and I can confirm they love you too!

Seems very cute although I wasn't able to play all the way as my text on the right side was cut off most of the time so I wasn't getting the story very much

Oh no! I'm sorry for the problems with the game. Don't hesitate to hit me up if you wanna troubleshoot this together!

Oh, no! Maybe do your taxes or something to cool off!?

Aw, this was so cute! I loved all the artwork and the UI; it looked very polished. The sound effects (especially the one when Boogie got surprised) were cute, and I loved the track which played over the credits. It's a very sweet story; you did a good job!

Oh wow, thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it!
