Don't Scratch That Itch
✅You are sure there are tiny creatures crawling about in your skin
✅You can see them
✅You can definitely feel them
✅You can avoid scratching the rashes
✅You won't do anything rash
✅You will survive this
How to play
The hand follows the mouse, and is more attracted to the mouse the further away the mouse is. 🖱️⬅️🖐️
Unfortunately, new rashes appear next to the mouse cursor... 🔴🖱️
As the urge to scratch increases the rashes start to attract the hand more and more, while the influence of the mouse decreases. 🫳⛔🖱️
When the hand is getting close to fall for the urge to scratch, one finger will become restless. At this point, you may preemptively scratch by clicking left mouse button. 🖱️

First of all this game is very well made but upsetting, second of all, I hate to bother you this way, but there's not really another way I could contact you. I've been looking for a game I entered into ludum dare 28 and apparently I kept the files on a deviantart account I deleted. I know it's been like... nearly 12 years now, but in the off chance you did keep the files somewhere, do you have this game?

if you do, please email me at thebrightfeather@gmail.com, thanks.
Glad you got upset by the game :)
As for the old Ludum Dare site I know Mike did have a copy of all that resided on the word press page, but weren’t all games hosted on 3rd party sites like itch, dropbox, mega and such? Maybe I’m not remembering things correctly, but I don’t have anything like that myself. So best guess would be attempting to contact Mike via bluesky
