The art is beautiful! Music was cool too. I couldn’t get far though, the controls felt wonky. the jump felt strange, it went unexpectedly high but not too far horizontally.

This game is very cool, and the game sound is very nice. If you like this idea, keep working on it! Awesome job submitting a good game to this jam and I hope you learned a lot of new stuff. When you have time, please check out my game :D
Great presentation, the music, sound effects and the visuals give a really nightmarish feel to it. I like the mechanics too, especially the flashlight, even though I'm not sure what lighting the torches does. It ran pretty slowly on my PC unfortunately (although it's a mid-priced laptop, probably runs fine on better systems), and I found myself falling through platforms a lot. Ultimately a cool concept, definitely found myself wanting to see if there was anything at the top.
Cool game! I was taken aback of how scary it was but it really works!
Controls felt a little bit wonky to me. Music and visuals were awesome!
It's a bit confusing on how to progress but the presentation is amazing! Thanks for playing my game
This was a fun little platformer, with really nice visuals and audio. I was really bad at it, although that's a personal problem haha. It was fun and enjoyable, especially after I realised how all of the mechanics work.
Great job!
Awesome art, it's great too see how much some people can make in just 48h.
My main gripe is the slow restart, I find with hard games such as these that an almost instant restart helps you get "hooked". But overall fun and enjoyable.
Good work on the assets, definitely a spooky vibe! I didn't even realise the fungus was shooting spores at me for the first few attempts - I was probably accidentally destroying them all when I was waving my flashlight around looking for where to go!
Congrats on finishing!
Wow those spores are out of control! It ran fine on my laptop. I think a bit more easing in to the controls and resetting straight back into the game would make the learning experience easier. The mouse aiming the light feels really good.
Wow the art is great. It took awhile to figure the game out but real nice job!
Really cool atmosphere, sadly I couldn't even figure out how to get past the first 5 seconds of the game
Beautiful and terrifying! The gameplay was pretty hard to figure out though, and I had some performance issues playing this on a laptop.
