Hello! Your game is pretty cool! I like the premise of shadow people/imaginary people terrorizing you and the storyline included was surprising and fresh; I wasn't expecting much of anything like that from jam submissions, so you're piquing my interest!

Your sound design is solid, and a lot of the sound effects aren't overdone or too repetitive which is great. However, what I would say is that it's a bit too loud in general and its hard to hear anything over the music. 

The gameplay I found was unfortunately lacking; You have the foundations of a great indie game in the making, but there are a few major errors, one of the most blaring ones being that the tutorial commentary and dialogue doesn't actually activate until you, the player, trigger it by finding the flashlight (which the tutorial is supposed to introduce you to). Because of this, we spent a while wandering down the halls in the dark using the candle (which my friends and I thought was the light source until a later point in the game) and struggling because it's not meant to be used as a light source. Additionally, after the cool intro w the flashlight, candle and the valve, the game opens up into a backrooms style environment without any further guidance, leading to boredom/difficulty/frustration from the player who doesn't know what to do. 

Beyond this, your game has some interesting elements that I found impressive to include in a game jam like this, which is not just dialogue and storyline but a save/load system and a functioning inventory system! That's sick and I took a second just to admire that lol

Anyways, great effort, your game came out looking sick! Good luck :)
