- Neat game. Easy mechanics to master at the start, then gets to be progressively more difficult. Awesome to see how you implemented the theme into your game. Restarting at the first screen is a bit of a bummer when you're trying to review your game with limited time. I didn't understand what left clicking did. Was my character doing some conjuring animation? Regardless, had fun. Looking forward to what you have next!
- Neat little game, needs some guidence or tutorial to help guide through. Once you figure it out. It's really fun and scurrying to find and do the little lights is fun. I had the opposite of where I never died, it was probably bugged out some how. But I got to explore more and it was fun! Keep it up and tests a lot. The art and movement are really good.

The movement is very satisfying and I like the art style! I agree though about it being frustrating being sent to the beginning when you die, since there is a lot of wandering around in the dark, it's easy to fall down a hole. It would be good to be able to see the destination torches slightly as it does feel like fumbling blindly in the dark with no clues for where to go, sometimes!
i like the idea, it’s cute, i wish i didn’t get sent all the way to the start when i die though, that’s a lot to trek through each time 😖 also i don’t even know how i’m dying :o
