I really like the ease of use for this game, allowing players to use the mouse and/or the shortcuts makes it playable for everyone. 

I do think some aspects could be refined, it would be nice if you automatically proceed to the next turn if you run out of energy. I do really like the atmosphere, the dark tone makes it really mysterious!

Developer

Indeed! The automatic change of turn was something I had in mind for further development. I sadly had to implement a pause between turns in the last minute to avoid an AI error. Feels a bit unsmooth right now :)

I like the looks. Am I correct in that there are just 2 rooms or am I missing something obvious?

Not sure if I'm a fan of the mechanics. While energy turn based gameplay can be fun, it's now mixed with a limited visibility, which causes you to lose energy to just observe the environment.

I also had a weird issue where [space] would sometimes end my turn and sometimes not, not sure what was up with that...

Developer

There is a door at the center of the 2nd room. Unless you ment 2 Levels

There is a door? :|

Developer

yes ^^'

Developer

And yeah, the energy system is simply not well balanced yet. And I had to implement a pause between turns to avoid a bug that appeared last minute. Sadly that pause makes the turns a lot more unsatisfying.

Nice!! I don't know what else to say. You know about the bugs.
'tis pretty. Very fitting music. Very atmospheric! Great job.

Developer

Thank you :)

Pretty cool game and b'ful music!
I loved the intelligence enemies show you and hide when attacked.
Some UI updates and this'll be a million dollar game!

Developer

Glad you liked it :)
