I jumped.
Damn it I jumped >_< =P the game gfx are annoying u could do better but the ending was nice :P
please make better controls... and add ambitient music ;)
There's a "Watch out your steps", then I fall and could not go to anywhere else... The graphics could be a little better and the gameplay could be a little longer...
I didn't jump, but I liked all the little details later on. Was fun :)
I really loved the way to text was 'hidden'!
Really cool aesthetic (though I didn't like the protag sprite much), and a very innovative way to do exposition. I particularly like how strange and unnatural the patterns of the caverns get later on.
Intriguing! The suspense with reading the texts made the whole thing.
Having the little character's eyes follow the mouse was a I really nice little touch.
Ahahaha. "Oh, let me turn the light on... I wonder if I'm actually in the room" I still jumped, but I'm easily startled :P
Yeah the sprite for the player is a bit bland, but you had a lot of atmosphere! Would be great with music.
Great atmosphere. I like how the cave environment itself tells the story, both in its design and writing on the walls.
My wife and daughter both jumped. Good ending. Problem is, it's a bit one-shot, ie, once you've seen the ending...
Like it a lot.
Nice! Loved the flashlight vs. texts and how it came together at the end.
Is that really the ending? Once I fell into "My room" I saw eyes and then the program closed.
I love the hidden texts in the wall ;)
What the other guys said.
Ok, this is a fantastically atmospheric game. I like it a lot.
Just one question. Is it actually possible to turn off the light?
Very nice. I'm impressed with your ability to take simple game mechanics and create an interesting story with loads of atmosphere and a lot of fun.
Haha, damnit, I jumped! The messages were a really great idea. I wasn't very invested at first, but the more I read, the more I wanted to read the rest. Loved it. The movement was a bit twitchy for me, and I found it hard to jump where I wanted to.
Only thing I didn't like was that down in the tunnels there were some really narrow tunnels that it was hard to get into. Otherwise, cool.
Slightly better controls and ambient music and this would be a classic.
eek! nice finish ;]
I got stuck several times since I couldn't get through some of the smaller because of the character speed..
Great little explorer game here. I enjoyed the way you handled the style and story/level elements in this. I am not sure I caught 100% of the text but definitely jumped a little even though I was pretty sure something 'bad' was about to happen. The site of all those eyes will haunt my digital self for quite some time... ;) The cavern design is really fun and interesting too and I love the wiggly flashlight and the following eyeballs.
It's so annoying having to hold the mouse button down, it would've been simpler if the light followed the mouse all the time. But anyway, good one! I jumped as well.
Short, sweet, simple, beautiful.
I jumped.
only complaint is that the sensitive controls made it difficult to fall in narrow width gaps.
Oh, and quiet music that grows in intensity with depth traversed would be great.
Fantastic game. Top marks for everything except humor, because I only laughed nervously. I didn't see any instructions about how to turn the torch off, but desperately clambering around with the controls at the edge of MY ROOM seemed appropriate.
Somehow the game was really jittery for me, a bit unplayable because of it. Other than that there was a nice atmosphere in the game (felt artsy, especially the start).
Great atmosphere!!
I got really stuck for a while - until I figured out how to turn off the light!
