Nice art and story! When you held the up key, it was playing the jump sound even when I was not on any platform and most of the sound where anoying but it made it maybe alittle scarier. Really interesting game for sure! Congrats!

Developer

I kinda like the dirty, rough artstyle and the game's story progression. Really cool!

Awesome mix of horror and simple puzzle platforming! Really glad you didn't make the platforming section excessively difficult and focused the brunt of the game on the atmosphere, it made the experience really immersive

Developer(+1)

Very very impressively polished for your for actual game, especially considering u only had 1 week. Awesome stuff!

The art style is unique. Perhaps it was necessary to raise the creepy atmosphere a little more with the sounds. It's not hard to finish and it's an interesting ending with twist.

Developer

thanks <3

Nice game! The visual art and intro are very well done and compelled me to keep playing. Very unique style and a creepy tone to the game.

Developer

that is what i was going for so im happy u enjoied it <3

Submitted(+1)

I would only say audio needs work. But I love the art work! I can tell you spent alot of time on it!

Developer(+1)

the art was made by my friend mat as i asked her if she wanted to join me in the game jam but i put most of the stages and created some glitched sprites for the later stages im happy u enjoeyed and will talk to mat and thank her again for her hard work

thanks again jadc <3

Very great concept to mixthe flashlight and a platformer games. The art is very nice too. For me the sfx could be better, but overall very very nice job! :)

Developer

thanks first time doing the sfx so i understand but sitll much love <3

Submitted(+1)

neat combination of mechanics. Audio needs better balancing but overall a good foundation for a game

Developer

thanks <3 

Submitted(+1)

I really enjoyed the gameplay the flashlight search mechanic mixed with a typical platformer makes for a fun and spooky game. The walking sound is a bit repetitive but the other sound effects added a lot to the game. Nice job!

Developer

thanks <3

The jump sound that loops :) Funny, but the light is flickering a lot it makes my eyes hurt.

Developer(+1)

sorry for makeing ur eyes hurt but made it to make an flashlight effect :) and the jump looping is a bug and i simply dont know how to fix it sadly but thanks for a comment <

Submitted(+1)

It’s okay 😅 The game idea is very good, I liked it

Developer(+1)

thanks <3

As far as I heard there was no music but the crickets in the background & the overall SFX was simple  but nice, too bad theres no rating for that. Minimalist games like this are commonly the result of 1-BIT, I like the art style & how using the flashlight fit in with the theme. Finding the lever was like a mini-game on its own. Played a 2nd time just for fun.

Developer

thanks for the critics as well as i apracaite that u played the game a second time becuse u liked it and there is no music becuse i sadly dont know how to make music for the game but for sure gonna try to make music in my next game thanks u made my day <3
