Those monsters were genuinely terrifying! The sound design is exceptional, and once you get the hang of the controls it all works pretty well.
The ideas here all seem quite good, it just seems unfinished. The various runes that say the same thing, and the one that does say something else but it bleeding off the screen all point to potential that just didn't make it in before the deadline.
Congrats on submitting though! That's the hardest part and keep up the good work so you can do even better next time! :D
