Ambient tracks are minimalist: creaking floorboards, distant thunder, the witch’s humming. Voice acting (partial, Japanese) is reserved for key emotional beats, enhancing rather than overwhelming. The absence of a combat fanfare is notable—violence is quick, brutal, and quiet.

The creator signature NumericGazer is a pseudonym that invites deconstruction. “Numeric” implies data, quantification, and systems—the cold logic of a game engine. “Gazer” implies an observer, one who looks intently, perhaps voyeuristically. Together, they describe the dual nature of the game’s perspective. The player is a gazer, but so is the witch. And, in a recursive twist, so is the developer.
Central to the piece is the titular figure, "the witch," who is less a person than an axis. She is defined by calibrations: the number of candles, the exact hour of low tide, the tallying of names. These quantifications function as ritual and as worldbuilding. They conjure a witch whose power is proportional to enumeration — a modern sorceress for whom algorithms are charms and datasets are grimoire. This is an evocative formal choice: magic reframed as computation, superstition transposed into statistics. The result is eerie and timely, reflecting contemporary anxieties about what is gained and lost when the world is reduced to metrics. : NumericGazer is currently focused on the sequel,

Comparisons to The Last Sovereign (for economic systems) and Karryn’s Prison (for stat-driven subjugation) are apt, though Under the Witch is more narratively focused.

The gameplay revolves entirely around managing the young protagonist’s willpower and submission metrics. Players face challenging tactical choices where losing a battle does not result in a standard "Game Over" screen, but rather branches directly into intricate, fully animated training or submission sequences. 3.
