I honestly really liked the lack of control in it, it made it a much scarier experience for me. I kept pressing the button in hopes it'd work and shut completely but, as one might expect, it didn't. Great job!
Pros and cons are down below) Check out my vid (the game is the 2d one there):
Advantages:
1. Very sweet game, it spooked me good, especially the sounds of sniffing!
2. That was original! I've never seen something similar.
Disadvantages:
1. Well, obviously, the game is too short.
2. I would like to see an option to run. For example when that thing is inside you gain the ability to run and if you make it - you live. Or some kind of QTE would also be nice.
Overall: That was super cool! As short as it is - the game gave me decent amount of heeby-geebies, my skin crawled. 5/5
This game was so fun! it really encapsulated the anxiety of a child at night, thinking of all sorts of creepy creatures that could be lurking in the dark. spooky
Ah! So creepy! I loved the simplicity of it, it made it way more terrifying not being able to move and just have to watch as this THING comes crawling at you!
Good game I wish it had held the creature as more of a mystery before completely reviling it . To actually give off the feeling of there being a real threat.
A short, but great game. I liked the fact that you couldn't move, and I kept focusing more and more on the color of the light for the garage door haha.
(Game starts at 7:00) Since I heard the game was short, I came in ready for some minimalist horror game, and would still have been satisfied. Yet you have managed to create a perfect finished game, in which the player has to wait for the monster to come in. The feeling of entrapment is exacerbated by the fact that the creatures knows of your situation and toys with you. A terrifying experience. Congratulations!
Though I'm too chicken to play this, I have watched basically all the playthroughs in this comments section and love it. The style is great, it's nice and short, and quite spooky IMO. 10/10!
I love a good low-poly game, and even more so, I love a GROUNDED horror game, and Make Sure It’s Closed is just such a game. It’s immediately relatable; we all have those childhood fears, whatever they may be, that stick with us, no matter how irrational. Though brief, I had a lot of fun with this game.

The lenght of the game is fine, but it would have be nice to have more control options I guess. I still enjoyed playing, nice job

It's a weird feeling when the horror game makes you laugh, isn't it?
damn, amazing name for the game, and the core idea is very good
