Really nice clean style and level design! And a great, undeniable usage of the limitation.

A superb game! The music is great, and the look of the game is minimalist but great at the same time.

The puzzles were challenging and  I had a great time solving them!

Super solid game. Really digging the music and while the graphics are simple they work. I also felt smart solving the puzzles, they were well-crafted. Great work!

Man, the music makes it seem so sad - and the bloody bits too.

Despite the simple blocky graphics, those details give the game a very dramatic feeling. Lovely presentation choices!

A short puzzle game trying to clear a room using the sacrifice of past adventurers - a very neat idea, with a good execution. Shame it's so short, but I appreciated it either way!

I see we understood the limitation quite similarly! Using your past lives to solve the puzzle and get to the end. I liked the puzzles and slowly began to understand how some tiles were marked to kill you but despite knowing this I was unable to see the spikes shooting from the sides/back due the low light levels.

A very solid game idea done in 3 days. Well don!
