She's moving. Keep the light on her.

A word from the management

KEEP IT ON HER: Stay at Sweetie's!

  • Color TV in every room
  • Free breakfast, all night
  • A phone by every bed
  • Your host never sleeps

KEEP IT ON HER is a first-person horror game. You work the front desk at Sweetie's Motel: bring the guests forty towels and mop up after them. By day the motel is lit and quiet. At nightfall the power cuts out and the front doors lock.

Power Watch
KEEP IT ON HER

The commercial lied.

Keep the light on her.

Once the sun goes down, Sweetie hunts you through the halls. She can't move while your beam is on her, but you can't fix a faucet and hold the light on her at the same time. After dark, every call sends you upstairs with a flashlight.

Aim the flashlight with your mouse. Leave her in the dark for a few seconds and see what happens.

Update · Out now

The guests have checked in

The biggest update yet for KEEP IT ON HER is out now, and the free demo has been updated too.

Six regulars have taken rooms at Sweetie's, and they bring their requests to the front desk in person. One wants forty towels. Another needs a new room key, because her husband swallowed the first one.

Clean up after them

Guests make messes, and every mess goes on your list. The motel has one mop and one vacuum, and they stay wherever you leave them. At night, a puddle in a dark hall can put you on the floor and send your flashlight sliding.

Don't keep them waiting

Leave a request too long and Sweetie gets to that guest before you do. The next night, they come looking for you.

A week at Sweetie's

Story Shift is now five nights long and saves between them. Floors open and guests check in as the week goes on.

Co-op

Proximity chat works on Windows again. Guests step aside when you push past them, and a long list of fixes means everyone in the crew sees the same motel.

Also new

  • Thai language support
  • Guests run at you out of nowhere by day, and the power flickers more often
  • The elevator rides dark, with only its emergency light
  • A faint glow around you when your flashlight is off, so you can find your way
  • An outline on anything you can use, when it's in reach

House rules

Four things the desk clerk needs to know

Keep her in the light

While your flashlight is on Sweetie, she can't move. Keep it on her too long and the beam starts to sputter.

Fill the request

Carry towels and soap up to the rooms, haul trays back down to the kitchen, fix the plumbing and get the breakers back on.

Shut the door

A shut door holds her for a moment while she works the handle. The lobby is the only safe place in the motel.

One touch and you're done

If she gets her hands on you, the shift is over. There's no fighting back and nowhere to hide. In Crew Shift, your crew can still come get you.
