3 things I liked about this entry:

  1. Simple but effective gameplay
  2. Good use of retro art style (the battle scene is reminiscent of the original Final Fantasy)
  3. Puzzles are generally challenging, but not too hard or obscure
  4. Bonus: HawkZombie cameo! He says some things that sound exactly like what he says on stream.

3 things I did not like:

  1. Chases mostly boil down to "just run" and the game occasionally forces an encounter; doesn't feel like there's any skill involved in escaping
  2. The elevator. I didn't realize I was supposed to attack Mason until I had burned all my best items, and someone still got killed.
  3. The maps are unnecessarily large. There is a lot of empty space that takes a long time to traverse even when running.

Overall, I enjoyed this entry. It is a fun entry that's a love letter to the horror movies of the 80s and 90s.

Thank you so much KV_Kingdom!
I definitely agree with the size of the maps being too large (specially considering this is a jam game) and the game doesn't feel rewarding in terms of gameplay, since it's all about rng and no skill is really involved (maybe deciding what items to preserve, although since some of the might fail, I guess sometimes it's not possible to do that).
Regarding the elevator, there was a message saying "Defeat Mason", but I reckon that's still a bit too vague and there should have been an additional indicator that you must deplete Mason's life.
