Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • Very adorable, movements is a little slippery. Still very nice, just throwing potions could use some adding to give it a more crafting look and feel for alchemy.
  • Overall this game is well made for what it was designed to be. The game is simple, but all the pieces made are well-implemented and feel good. The theme implementation was a bit basic with the dark environment, shadow monsters, and potion weapons. Overall a solid 3/5, with more time and development to mechanical complexity this could be a real gem!

Fantastic pixel art, super detailed cat and tileset. 

Some interesting similarities to ours with the use of light and a thrown potion mechanic. A fun maze escape game although it feels a little sudden and inevitable when your time is up. You got a real good glow on your light in this, I wish our lighting looked that good.

Fun stuff, look forward to seeing what you guys build in the future!

Love the character art in this, very cute. You guys struck a nice balance when it comes to the visibility, where you have narrow vision but the cooldown of the light potion is short enough to not be annoying.

I do feel like the shadow monsters move a bit to quick, which isn't an issue when you can see them, but sometimes when you only have your characters light around, they jolt into view and instantly kill you. Maybe having the ease into view and speed up once they are in light or something like that.

Other than that the game was easy to understand and fun little experience. Awesome submission guys well done!
