Simple, but effective. I mean, maybe a bit too simple. Maze + weeping angels(-esque monsters: I know they work slightly differently) isn't exactly going to win any awards for innovation, and my enjoyment was dampened slightly by the player model glitching out and sending the lantern to the ceiling. Also, no graphics settings is a bit of a bummer, as my PC isn't the best. And I always hope to find a mouse sensitivity slider in any first-person game, so that's a bit of a letdown, too.

Finally, and this is a bit nit-picky: I fail to see how this fits into the theme of the jam. Sure, there are some spooky monsters, but there's barely any focus on them. There doesn't seem to be a story, and besides the extremely forced, anachronistic VHS filter, nothing here implies that a paranormal occurrence is being documented. The game is very gamey, with a clear objective, levels, and a floating level number plastered on the wall. To say it's about "anomalous entities" would be like saying that Pac-Man is about anomalous entities, because you're being chased by ghosts. You get what I mean?

Still, overall, cool game!
