Everything from the visuals to the sounds were on point. Strange story. It started as one thing, but end up going a completely different route, but I still enjoyed playing.
Wow what a pretty game! Loved every bit of it, the music is also very beautiful! I truly hope there is more to come to this game because I was really excited for a new chapter after that ending.. Wishing you all the best! ❤️
While I won’t be returning to Thunderhead, I’m excited to take you to new places and explore different themes. Horror is such a versatile genre, there’s so much left to discover. Thanks for playing, and I wish you all the best!
I understand. Well I truly enjoyed this short masterpiece for sure, it was a nice experience. I can't wait to play more of your games in the near future, keep it up! ❤️
Thank you for providing the game with such beautiful soundtracks! 🙏 Even at the end of the game I didn't want to exit out as the song was still playing 🥰
Those fences are damn strong. Sheriff Phelp’s cousin doesn’t mess around - he tracked down the finest wood you can find on the prairie. Ain’t no storm or stupid van gonna take it down easy.
The game's atmosphere is just amazing, I myself love the Western genre and I think this game embodied that genre and expanded nicely on it with the twist in the end. Honestly, I couldn't have ever seen that coming. Great game overall, gameplay a bit slow - like other indie games on Itch -, music was just amazing so congrats to the guy who did that. Overall a great experience!
I wanted to play it but the mouse sensitivity was too much, I barely move my mouse and the viewpoint moves all over the place! I even lowered my mouse movement on my Computer's system settings to as slow as it could go, and it still moved all over the place. I quit the game middway because the mouse sensitivity was just too much to handle.
I really enjoyed Thunderhead on itch.io. It didn’t rely on big jump scares, which I appreciated. Instead, it created a strong, creepy atmosphere that genuinely gave me chills. The horror felt subtle but effective.
Unfortunately, I did run into a bug at the end—after fixing the car, the hood stayed up, blocking my view while driving. It broke the immersion a bit, but overall, the game was still a great experience.
I really like this. Short and to the point. Music is great. The build up to the climax and the twist at the end is everything in this, especially the giant "demonic circle" just before the church. I wish the game is longer. solid 9/10 IMO
SPOILERS
I wish the game is longer so there's more build up. Perhaps more notes and records of people describing the events and happening regarding the "witch", but of course the events being described will be stuff about UFO's, so when the twist in the end happens it will be even more mindblowing. Like perhaps people talking about loud noises, blinding "magic light", the witch flying with a disk and pulling things into the air, etc. With the game being longer there will also be time to really make players think the antagonist is a witch by adding even more mystery and horror elements.
But hey, maybe this game is just perfect the way that it is and me wanting more is merely a sign of that. Either way, I really like the game!
Thanks for the video and the review! Early versions did include everything you mentioned, but I’ve never been a big fan of reading notes in games — mostly because it often doesn’t make sense why someone would write them. I really appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best!
This game was a masterpiece! The amount of style you managed to fit in such a small game is insane and truly made it feel like a real western! Amazing job!
This was really cool! The twist is absolutely insane, and I love the western atmosphere combined with the eerie emptiness that becomes quite foreboding. Looking forward to more!

Glad you enjoyed!
Loved the vibes in this game. The visuals were also just super accurate lol. All the crosses made me feel like I was back in the Deep South lol.
Thank you!

Thanks for the kind words regarding the music :)

It's a pleasure to be included in great indie projects like this. Thanks :D
this game was fantastic, continue this style plz
The style will surely continue, thanks a lot!
Fantastic game. Loved the music and how popups (tutorial, chapters) was done. Im also glad you let us drive BOTH vehicles, very cool.
I’m so glad you liked the UI — it’s always the part I’m most nervous about! Thanks for playing :)
Glad you loved the music. Yeah I also loved the UI. The massive bold headings gave me old Spaghetti Western vibes. So good!
Danke.
Voltz Supreme absolutely knocked it out of the park with his Western tracks — couldn’t have asked for a better music! Thanks for playing!
Glad you liked the music. It's always a pleasure to be able to play a small part in interesting indie games :)
I think the game does not work with 1360x768 screens.
How does the problem look? Can you send a screenshot?
That looks correct to me.
You can't see much in the picture but in my game you can see a small part of a text, I don't know if the problem is with the screen or with me.
Oh I think I see it, I'll try to figure it out tomorrow.
An Indie Western Horror Game Perfection
Thanks for delivering!
COOL!!!
Thanks Horror Player!
Thanks for making gameplay video!
VERY INTERESTING, MUST PLAY
THANKS!
Good game, keep going
Thank you!! More to come soon!
VISUALLY STUNNING, MOVIE INSPIRED, SHORT HORROR GAME. 10/10 visuals. Reminds me of The Hateful Eight.
Thanks so much! I love The Hateful Eight.
0/10 Las Vallas no me dejaban estrellar la camioneta contra la iglesia

Nice, sweet, and simple. I wish the twist was also in the buildings while I was deliverin.
I'm sure the people of Thunderhead would be proud of the job you did, if they were still alive. Thanks for delivering!
Very interesting twist lol I had fun, I wish it was longer so I could keep playing
Thanks for delivering!
What a delight that was, and I loved the twist ending. I started with Mushrooming and now this! Keep the delightful strangeness going.
What a delight your comment is. It means a lot, thanks for playing Mushrooming as well! New game is coming soon!
If you are more into no commentary:
Nice gameplay, thanks for sharing!

You can now adjust mouse sensitivity in game! Enjoy and let me know how it went!
That was quick. And also a perfect solution. I can play the game wonderfully now.
I enjoyed it a lot, I liked the retro feel, and that little twist ending,
Really neat short game! Did a quick Speedrun for it.
Thanks!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the game! Mouse sensitivity is now fixed :) Thanks for feedback!
Cinco estrellas bro, muy buen juego
Thanks a lot!
Great video, thanks!

You can close the hood with E. Thanks for playing!
