The mixed pixel sizes threw me off and I had trouble easily discerning what was path and what was door. Interesting concept, though I don't think the flashlight was working for me, the bar would just fill and diminish and my light beam would just stay on.
Very atmospheric ! and the limited visibility adds to it. enjoyed it
Thanks !
love the atmosphere, kinda melancholic
Thanks !
Great game! I really enjoy the music of the game!
Thanks !
Soundtrack is great! It really fits with the game
Thanks !
Love how it looks, the paths are hard to see which I think makes it fit in to a dark aesthetic even more
Thanks for your feedback ! With a little more time we planned to add objects to paths to make it even more disturbing.
Ok, this was pretty good. I liked how the game really made you work to find those keys in the maze. I was a bit confused as to why certain enemies would still move even after I used the freeze action. Other than that, I really enjoyed it.
Thanks your feedback ! I have to look into it but I think there is a case that I forgot to address when the player presses SPACE and the enemy is already in the light area.
I love this! It's simple but effective. I think it would be even better with a bit more visual feedback for the torch stun and monster damage for clarity. Great job!
Thanks your feedback ! Completely agree with you about the torch stun
A video game with a horror atmosphere and retro graphics: I love it !
Thanks a lot for your feedback !
I can't play. I'm getting this error (Opera, Firefox, Edge and Chrome).
Reload the page isn't work.
Sorry.
Hello, it is weird a lot of people already played it without issues...
I just test it on two different computers (With completely different hardware) on Firefox, Edge and Chrome. I didn't succeed to reproduce this error. Are you using a specific OS or web browser plugins maybe ?
Thanks.
I tried deactivated all extension with no lucky. I have an old graphic card, maybe this.
Anyway I saw video of Allingames.
I like the oppresive ambience with music and art style. Good job!
This is a simple, clean game idea! It's a small thing, but I love different key designs--it gives the dungeon personality!
It was difficult to avoid taking damage from the monsters (space didn't seem to do anything for me), but it was clear what I needed to do, and the sense of "darkness" was strong.
Nice job!
Thanks a lot for your feedback !
When you pressed SPACE, it set the flashlight with higher energy for an amount of time and if the flashlight "touch" an ennemy it freeze it for five seconds . But it is something that can definitely be improve with more graphics/sound.
Have a nice day !
