Not having a bunch of crazy sound effects does make the game a bit spookier, but without anything cluing you into what's going on in your surroundings makes the game hard to understand. The character moves SO slowly, and while that's great for making it spookier when the monster's on your tail, it makes the rest of the game feel a bit slow. I like the art style you chose for the game, and the game's really cool as you never really see many horror games for Game Jams. :)
