Good Game!

Lots of play time on this one, I like what you were able to make in such a short time.

This was nice! I admit I actually thought the very first minigame thing where you shot the elves might have been the whole game--that happens sometimes. Was pleasantly surprised that there was way more :]

If there's any criticism I have it's that the messages are slow enough that I would sometimes press space too early, not realizing that there was more about to be shown to me. My first go through I didn't know how to resupply the lamp with oil, so I had to restart the game to re-get the tutorial. Otherwise, having to manage both oil and ammunition is a neat idea, though I didn't really know how many bullets I had in reserve, just how much I had in my gun.

That I had to reload slowly was a nice way to add tension. I don't think any of the health pickups actually increased my health, but I was able to get to the end.

A decent game, and a good showing for a game jam. Thanks for your hard work!

I really like the game-in-game intro that also serves as a tutorial!

Woah wasn't ready for this game to scare me as much as it did :D Even just the first interaction with Richard had me jump :D Unfortunately it seems there's a bug where your bullet count doesn't reload when picking up from checkpoints, so I didn't have the perseverance to make it through. The repeated jumpscare noise definitely loses its effect over time but works very well. Nice work altogether! The most I've jumped yet after playing any of the jam entries :)

The floating ghost head spooped me!

Love the art and game progression. Really got me hooked! I’m also a huge sucker for mannequins/Weeping Angel mechanics in horror games so that was very fun to see. The shift in tone after you play Pixson and the music was truly unsetting. Great job!

Good game. COol story. Gave it a five star rating would be great if you could do the same :)

Submitted

That was great, I like how even with the cute low res graphics it still genuinely creeped me out!

Cool story, concept, and gameplay!

Loved the idea of a mini game at the beginning, it's pretty fun to play. the only thing i wish the light lasted a little longer because it took a while to know where you are supposed to go etc

I really like the progression of the game! The mini game at the start was fun and then the actual game itself got spookier as it went on. Good job!

My browser wont let me download the game unfortunately.
