I really liked the game, the only issue is the movement of the character would get stuck sometimes and I'd find it hard to move fast enough before the lights went off again, and maybe the to-do list could only come up when interacted with instead of whenever I pass by, It was a bit distracting. Aside from that I really liked the concept and graphics! Good job!

I liked discovering new things about the house whenever I was able to find the next light, and having to frantically look for all the items before having to turn the light back on. I think it would be interesting to see the character interact more with the dark, maybe becoming more anxious and stressed the longer you leave the light off and affecting how quickly you're able to collect the items.

Interesting take on the theme. I felt the anxiety because there was no way I could keep count of how many items I have already collected. Maybe add a better incentive to turn on the lights so that you are forced to do it for certain items.

Please play and rate my game as well, thanks!

On the one hand, the game was boring and and there is not really anything to do. On the other hand, this kinda fit. I thought that you need to keep the lights on and when they were off, I rushed to do my tasks and thought that something happens. But nothing happend. Nothing can go wrong...

So you kinda feel this anxiety of him but in reality, nothing could happen. This fits the theme so well!

This was a really fun game! I liked the concept of anxiety and feeling like something is about to go wrong. I thought that keeping the lights on was mandatory for beating the game, so I tried playing through it entirely without turning them on. I was slightly dissapointed that there wasn't any difference in the game's ending when you do this. However I still enjoyed playing it and my small critique doesn't affect my opinion of the game at all!
