How does your game fit the theme?
it fits pretty well as it is dark and mysterious, the more you replay it, the more you discover, Im willing to add more secret stuffs and eventually achievments for you to collect
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
all code was made by me souly, and some assests are either edited, "borrowed" or just by me

The game looked great, and the torch was a cool idea that really added to the atmosphere. But I kept falling into the void during the cinematics (mostly because I kept pressing D to move before the game actually started), which made it a bit frustrating with the death animation that always played afterward. Aside from that, the game is really cool. Good job!!
The game was pretty interesting, moving the torch is an interesting mechanic that could be great with a little more development. My biggest complaint would be that lack of tutorialization, as I had no idea sort of what was going on for a little while there. The character controller was also a little stiff, and maybe could have benefitted from a little more time. Overall, good job!
great idea! Good job, the game feels really polished and well put together
The art assets and sounds you have picked work well together. The touch mechanic is interesting. To improve, have a couple tutorial levels to explain/show mechanics like double jump and dash. Furthermore, don't good from an easy level straight into a hard level it's off putting and doesn't allow the player to gain / learn how to play the game. For the saw, give the players a bit more starting space, you can have the camera show the saw and then snap it back to the player.
Seems like you really had fun with the falling sound hahahah, absolutely loved dying in this game! The torch mechanic is really unique and kinda makes a “simple” platformer more challenging. Not sure about the theme, but I loved the game design and the art. Good stuff! :)
for the theme, you are quiet right, time had got me very tired, and I was planning on a full story where the castle was on like some kind of party, when a saw suddenly came and destroyed it, and then, the player or the hero waked up in the dungeon he was kidnapped in, but as I was learning godot and gdscirpt, I wasnt able to implement it, so I stick to a like the narrative thing on the veyr first leve
its.......
AWESOME!!!
This is very good. Nice sounds, nice controls, nice level designs. Loved having the torch as a separate controller. But it was also very hard for me (not a platformer player). I would have loved a few more levels before having to play repeatedly to get anywhere.
A solid platformer with a nice art style. I like the torch mechanic although it makes this punishing game even more punishing. But the changing death sound effects are a nice touch. Maybe change the dash from "E" to something else like "Shift" for more comfortable controls?
This is THE best game jam game i have ever played. It was really fantastic, and the fact that you had to move the torch to the player in order to see where you are going was just fantastic. Welldone.
Really cool concept. I really liked the sound effects and the art style
It would be awesome if you could take a look at my project. Any feedback would be fantastic!

already done it, the game is very great, the idea is one of its kind, solid 8
This game was so good! I really liked the unique sound effect when your player dies.
Despite not quite getting how it fits the theme, I like the torch mechanic and sound design. Good job.

Love the light mechanic.
The player can move while the camera isn't on the player which is pretty much instant death.
The movement seems a little sensitive for my liking, I know for others its an added challenge.
I ended up having the audio on death loop for a long time.
Well done on the game :)

Good game but starts out w already hard levels. If you r not a fan of platformers it will be too hard to play. Overall interesting setting but I didn`t feel the theme of the jam.
On itself good project!

The game is interesting, I personally don't like games that are so punishing. I didn't feel the theme in the game, but it is a solid game with good sound design and a really creative way of using light.

this was very impressive!
as a 14 year old boy making a game while learning a new engine!
hats off to you my friend
Very cool, the mechanic of using the torch light to see was well done!
Good Work!
cool game with nice graphics!
Good sound design, nice lighting and graphics, fun platforming that could use a little bit of polish perhaps but it is just a game jam so no problem. I don't really get how it fits the theme but it was executed very well with the camera work when the blade comes and the levels seem pretty thought out, good job!
quite fun, liked the ligthing!
