Great little game! I especially liked the lights off mechanic, it really helped with the atmosphere! And the different levers to navigate through the Level were a nice mechanic that kept me guessing what comes next! The art is also done really well, I'm excited to see what you'll do next!

Nice little game, could do with some music/audio to help keep the mood. Like the art work, and could easily see this on a GB.

Crypt Climb - GBJAM 12Well made. I like the font. Did you download it from somewhere or is it a custom one?

Clean & HauntedAn excellent short exploration game. The use of palette swapping for the lights going out was well done. I'd be curious to see what else you can do with all of this. Keep on going! (I also saw the enemies pop in then disappear just before the lights out section by the way, may be worth taking a look at).

Hunted | HunterNice game felt pretty complete, with lovely artwork. Sometimes the enemies would appear the disappear when entering a room, don't know if this is a bug or just a spooky feature :)

Beyond The WallsNice game with simple but effective gameplay. Great graphics and interesting progression. Well done!

LUCILLA the Bedsheet GhostThe mysterious levers were a fun interpretation of the spooky theme. I got nervous before pulling each one. I appreciate how when the lights went out you could still see the enemies and the boss wasn't difficult to beat. I try to play as many submissions as possible, it's really nice being able to play the entire game from beginning to end. Nice job!

Masquerade Carnival BallThank you for taking the time to play and offer your thoughts! I'm glad the levers came across as a series of unknowns. The palette swap (when the lights go out) was something I've tried in previous jams but went unsuccessful, so I made sure to give it more attention this time around. It's honestly my favorite part of the game. Again, thank you for playing!
