Really cool start for a game. I enjoyed finding the torches.

Although, I didn't know my candle was going to "fled" so it was a bit of a shock when it happened.

I had a hard time putting the candles down. It took me a long time to realize I can put it on the floor. I think a visible cursor or crosshairs would've made it more clear to me.

Otherwise, fun little game. Thanks.
