This is great, I really liked the game atmosphere and mechanics.
really cool looking game.
Cool! A couple of bugs, but kind of gives me a Hollow Knight vibe
This was a really fun game! I liked it a lot, but it was a little buggy for me.
Wow, a video too! The game could definitely use some more number tweaking to avoid a few things that happened to you. I need to look into some of the bugs you got and try to fix them. Thanks for pointing them out!
You're welcome, glad I can help!
Awesome game! I loved every second of it!
Thanks for playing!
Cool game everything fitted together really nice, The art (especially your key image), sound and overall design created a really enjoyable experience. I especially enjoyed the creatures sound design. The first time hearing them approach was really attention grabbing. I also liked the sprinting down the slope screen shake and music change and the moles bouncing ears on running animation.
Had a few crashes but nothing major however once I was a few levels deep I found the enemies could be quite unforgiving.
Hey, thanks for playing. I'm glad you liked it. Yeah, as you progress further down, the spawn chance related to the noise level increases a bit. It probably could use some number tweaking.
Really beautiful illustrations and a cool concept! I couldn't figure out how to use the light, though. I didn't seem to do anything for me. The enemies just kept killing me, so I just ran every time. I also couldn't figure out how to get past the steep incline.
Thanks for playing. I'm happy to hear you liked it! The light just burns the enemies as they get closer, but doesn't last very long. As a rule, as long as there aren't spikes, you should be fine going there.
