  • A great little game. The only negative to say is the UI is a bit disjointing, having 3 bars with not all of them in an easy readable position did not help. Creativity is there, gameplay is there, Theme is on point and the polish is great. Unsolicited suggestion: When getting to the last few to light, maybe ad arrows on screen showing in which direction they are.

Very nice game!!

Super fun! Only note would be that sometimes one of the big crypt sprites can spawn in front of a torch and hide it almost completely xD

Yeah, I toyed with the idea of tweaking the torch spawning to ensure it looked more natural and to guarantee it was visible, but it was on a list of things I didn't end up having time for :D

Thanks for playing!

What an amazing game! I'll be back here to play more as soon as I finish all the ratings :)

This is really well designed. The ability system gave roguelike feels, and the light fading worked really well. I didn't like the way it flickered, but beyond that I don't have any issues. Also the music was great!

Nice game, I had fun. The art and music work well with the gameplay. I found it difficult to begin with until I figured out that running blindly until I find a lantern is not the best strategy haha! Well done though.
