I think you guys did a really good job making this game! I love the art, music, sound effects, though I feel like instead of brightening my lamp I would have liked a dash.

This is a very cool game. It looks beautiful, sounds great, and plays smoothly. I love the scary-but-cute aesthetic, and even though I lost the game, I didn’t mind running into the monsters because they’re all unique and very well designed. When I actually tried to reach my quota, the light dilemma became clear—lamp oil is scarce, and you have to make a tough choice. Very interesting! Overall, I enjoyed playing this game a lot.

Really striking the balance between cute and spooky.

Really cool! Love the art style and atmosphere!

Yeah, well, that was spooky! It was also fun to play, and it felt fair. A good variety of ghosts and apparitions, and I believe they all had different behaviours, which was cool. I kept falling for the one jumping outta the ground -_- 

Very fitting sound design; I especially liked the theme slowing down and getting darker when "it began".

Good jam game!!

Yooo the design and creation of monsters is sick!

- Really love the lantern mechanics.

- The idea and music it's ideal for the theme

- I really liked cabinets which can "eat you"

Great submission!
