That was a pretty neat game! Very nice thinking outside of the box with the wildcard use :D

Thank you :) I am hoping to be a lot better in the future.

Truly creepy at times! Great job with the sound and terrifying spirits. I liked the effect where it was dark but the enemies were still somehow very visible and I frantically shined the light on them.

I don't know if it was just me but I could never find the house and my flashlight died and then I was walking around aimlessly in the dark and gave up xD

You put a little sneaky on me by thinking the tiles will lead me to the safehouse but reach it nonetheless :D 

Great game I enjoyed it.

Well since he's a guy who does rituals I thought his home should be a bit hidden and hard to reach :P


Glad you liked it, and thanks for feedback :)

Ooh, I didn't think like that, to be honest, it gave a charm!

I HAVE REACHED THE SAFEHOUSE 

cool concept, i think it would be better if the rotation of the flashlight was based on mouse pointer so it could be controlled easier.

Developer

Indeed. At the time I was too focused on making the flashlight match the animated movement and, in the end, I didn't want to scrap stuff and implement something from scratch lest I mess something up, even if it would have been easy in hindsight.

Thank you for the feedback :)
