Great atmosphere. I liked the wind.

Felt really nice to place but i was starting to get confused on why was there so many chests in one place just for them to all be empty
Lot of polish on your game. Music sets the mood well, and I like how you did a walking animation with the sprite scaling. I was thinking maybe a rechargeable, short dash meter for those emergencies would be good. I died pretty quick when getting swarmed. Well done!
Well crafted game you got here! I like the torch = weapon mechanic! You could improve in level design though - placing like 30 chests in one room is not too much fun imo. Especially if none of them contain anything.
Love the flashlight as a weapon. Feels so satisfying to use.
The amount of little visual touches you managed to add are impressive.
Quite difficult at times when the enemies suddenly appear before you have time to react, but maybe I needed to be more cautious :)
Neat Submission.
Nice art style. Really good job on the Audio in particular though. SFX sound polished, Music is fitting, and gushing wind really adds to the experience. Overall, you've built a game with a really good atmosphere and feel to it. Ticks the Theme box too.
For improvements, movement could feel a bit slow at times. Maybe add a sprint key/button. I'd also recommend switching from hovering cursor over ghosts to using a Ray of Light approach where any ghosts in the ray are damaged. Would make more sense given its a flashlight.
Overall, good submission. Well done!
This was fun! The music fit the eerie theme and the idea of finding the single key in a bunch of chests was interesting! The atmosphere was great, and this was overall a very enjoyable experience. (I also always love seeing a Gdevelop game in a jam!)
Neat little game, definitely fits exploration. I liked that the combat was based around the light, but I wish all enemies in the light took damage rather than only the one my mouse was scrolling over. I wasn't able to beat the game, but it's a very nice submission.
I like the soundseffects and the fact did you did the total opposite with the light effect then me :D
High quality entry! Loved the level of details and killing the ghost felt super satisfying. I did find it a bit hard, especially because the ghosts can sneak on you from behind corners (maybe even through walls?) and there's no way to detect them before they get too close in that case. Still, one of the best entries I've played so far!
Wow, animations and sounds are crazy good, flashlight mechanic reminds me of alan wake
great work!
Super cool man! You did a much better job than me on the same concept.
