I love the color palate and art style, and your interpretation of the theme was original; great game!

How does your game fit the theme?
When you die, you create a well that spawns enemies to spawn, making the game harder but multiplying your score
(the game works now BTW)
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
yes ,except for SFX with are from a free pack on itch

This was the first thing I clicked on when I started going through the submissions on Day 1. I'm glad you got it to work :)
It's a pretty fun game. The art direction is wonderful! I think that spookier sound design would've added to the game's tension, as would harder gameplay.
Potential Bug: I don't know if you were supposed to be able to grab one of the skulls more than once, but I managed to get 4-5 bones out of one skull.
Very nice game overall, good job! :)

PlanetHopperi might make some devlogs or sum thing, if I do I'll post it on my twitter https://twitter.com/Grizzlygamess
The game looks very nice! I really enjoyed the hunt.
The only thing that was annoying is my mouse moving freely while playing. Because I use 2 monitors, I clicked out from the game a few times :D

Just 1 MoreMy Honest Feedback:
Solid 9/10, would definitely recommend
Also i dig the Doom-like Horizontal-Only Camera Rotation, guess we were thinking the same when we were creating our games lmao

RogueAbyssThis is really cool! I absolutely love the art style and the way the trees lay down to be out of the way. The only criticisms I have are that the UI boxes are a little too big and the text of the characters in town can be blocked by them, and you can't look up. Otherwise, this was awesome!

TransitionSeems like a great game, I couldn't get it to run very well on my computer, but I loved the art style and everything

Bullet BlitzLiked art and atmosphere, feels very cozy.
It feels like this game should be topdown or at least like when you press f5 in minecraft dont know how thats called because enemies are basically everywhere and it's hard to know what and where damages you. Also aiming is difficult but when enemies are everywhere it doesn't really matter where you shoot
