I like the way candles work. They act as an ammo source, but you also have to keep the flames going or else they all eventually burn out. This discourages the player from camping on one candle which is nice.

I'm really impressed with the visuals. One minor critique, which you may have already considered, is that the movement feels a bit sluggish. Would it be worth experimenting with a slightly faster pace, or was this intentional?

Love the visuals, would have preferred to move a bit faster and for a lower spawn rate but otherwise i loved the game.

The gameplay loop is really cool, I would have liked less enemies to get used to the mechanics first but overall good idea!

Cool game I like the art style and the gameplay loop. The candle hitboxes were a bit small though.
