Love the story, the music, the graphics! Such a cool game!
Cool to see you enjoyed our game :)
Scary!
haha tnx! Exactly what we wanted :D
Good job! I liked the music, the graphics and the idea of the light fading as time runs out. Clever the idea of accelerating the fading if you run. Like the "stealth" flavor.
Great game!
Thank you for your kind words! We are really glad to hear you liked it :)
Very nice (and kinda stressful game). I liked the idea that the light fades as time runs out, very clever. Great job!
Fun game
Nice take on the theme, though the fuel runs low way too fast to get to find more fuel.
But great game indeed for a jam <3
Nice visual, And I really love the starting over from the beginning feature.
Thank you for your kind words! We are glad you liked it :D
Game idea is really good, and the visuals and audio is amazing!
I do think that having the enemies be a little bit slower than the players walking speed would have been an improvement because having them walk right behind the player matching their pace looks a little silly.
despite this its a really good game, one of the best I've seen so far!
We are glad to hear you enjoyed our game :)
The walking speed of enemies is faster than the walking speed of the player in order to force the player to run - which is part of the game's mechanics. However, we did not intend to make enemies match the pace of the player and its one issue we did not manage to solve before the submission. After the game jam is over, we will definitely provide a patch.
Great audio and visuals :)
I seem to be quite bad at the game, though, it's difficult! Reminds me of the Pokemon caves in the old games but way more dangerous ;D
Thank you for your kind words! Don't worry, it is hard, but replaying is the key to figure out the map and monster :)
i like the art a lot :)
the game is really hard thou :) (I probably just suck :D )
myabe if you could restart on the same level would help :)
Thank you for your kind words!
Yes... haha it is hard, don't worry. Replaying makes it easier to figure out pattern.
Restarting on same level sounds like a interesting idea. Thanks for the feedback!
While I liked the visual style and the sound design, the game is pretty unforgiving. Couldn’t even beat the first level after many attempts. Perhaps, some kind of mini-map would help.
We are glad you like the game's art. We are aware the game might seems too hard at first but every mechanic in the game is there for a reason. The suggestion would be to try a different, maybe a more patient approach. We don't wish to spoil it for other players, but one hint we can give you is: try running less 😉.
Moreover, adding something like a mini-map would break the immersion and we explicitly decided not to add additional HUD elements.
Wow, I am really bad at this kind of game. I still can't even beat the first level. It is a very good game though, well done.
Thank you for your kind words! Don't worry, it takes time to replay levels and figure out the map and the monsters. Thank you for feedback! :)
Beautiful game!
Thank you for your kind words! We are really glad to hear you like it! :)
What a great game! The graphics of this game are amazing. I love it! That guy really try to explore a cursed dungeon with only a small lantern XD
I am glad you enjoyed it!
The poor guy was not expecting the dungeon would be so cursed 😂
A good game, reminds me of mining in Minecraft, shivering.
Thank you for your kind words!
We are very glad to hear you experienced this emotion, this is something we aimed for :)
Creepy, but the graphics are cool! Kudos for using JS! BTW the GitHub link is broken!
Thank you for your kind words! The github link should be working now :)
it's hard, really like the visual. , the gameplay is cool, but it's hard. (also i'm bad at this game)
Thank you for your kind words! Hahah don't worry, we didn't have much time to fully test the gameplay and re-iterate.
Easy to play and great art! A bit hard, but after a while I managed to complete some levels :) Great work pal!
Thank you for your kind words! Glad to hear you liked it! :)
The aesthetics and atmosphere of this game are truly incredible for a jam submission! Some of the levels/enemies felt borderline unfair, but I had a great time playing nonetheless.
Thank you for your kind words! Glad to hear you had fun! We didn't have so much time to fully test and re-iterate the difficulty haha
This was awesome, I loved the theme and art-style. That second floor was hard XD
Thank you for your kind words! :)
