Figuring out what I could and couldn't run into was a bit confusing at first, but I really like the premise!

Yeah, teaching the player how to play, is really hard. =/ But i think we got it right (or sorta) for the first time :)
very original!, love the concept
Thanks! :D
Cute concept, controls for flashlight felt REALLY laggy; multiple second delay between me pressing a button and something happening.
Interesting idea that could use some polishing. The audio seemed out of place and never really set the mood in any way. There are also issues with the flashlight and it taking a while to turn on. Other than that it's a fun idea that I enjoyed that could be really great with a little polish.
Classic concept, but well fit to the theme. What's with that jump sound? Hehe
Little lag to turn flashlight on (not sure if it's design to do so) and didn't understand why the level is so high on the screen or why it couldn't fit the whole area instead of a single strip.
The controls are not very responsible, sometimes it takes few seconds to turn the lights on/of, shame becouse the art style and sounds are very appealing
Guys! the flashlight delay, is part of the mechanics! No problem! :) Will fix it soon! :D
Updated the flashlight mechanics, now it doens't stop the movement! :D
And yes, i could have worked a little more on the audio... =/
idk why, but I found the game rather hilarious with the music and sound effects. Hopefully that was intentional. Kinda confusing at parts, but fun.
Hahahahahahaha thanks for your review :D
Hey, you fixed the flashlight! Now you only have to deal with the dead batteries... hehehe
Nice Tácio! Very well done, with good graphics and interesting game play mechanics. I still have some issues with jumping, but overal I like this game. Keep the good work!
Guys! Thank you so much! Your words are really motivating me to keep working on this game, and making it a big thing! :D
Where did that SFX came from? O.o
nice game hahahhahah
The controls were kind of clunky, sometimes I could jump very high and other times I only got "a half jump" and couldn't tell what I was doing different. The game has a great mood and good graphics. Some of the inner mechanics and controls need to be reworked a little in my opinion.
Fun game!
@rzfmzn
hahahhaha crazy royalty free samples i have here XD
@elbowroom
I've got this problem here too. I think i know how to fix it :)
@RafaelSales
Thank you so much! :D
@elbowroom nope my attempt failed. I have to research a bit more to figure out how to solve this. Damn =/
Original concept, i liked it. More help would be cool. Nice job.
The light and dark thing is great, but the "yeah" scream all the time is not good. Maybe random noises?
Thanks @LTyrosine ^^
Cool gameplay idea, and I really enjoyed the graphics style. The platforming mechanics could be definitely be tightened a bit. I look forward to playing the enhanced version!
Cool and minimal. A bit hard for me though.
@Foxtacy
You asked me what I meant by "The platforming mechanics could be definitely be tightened". Specifically, I was thinking 3 things.
The fall feels very floaty. I believe you're moving the hero down at a constant velocity instead of an accelerated velocity. It gives falling an unrealistic feel.
Also,if you hit space while holding left/right arrow, you lose all of your horizontal velocity. Also, the light doesn't turn on/off unless you tap space a second time.
Finally, (and the least important) if you hold up, you will jump as soon as you fall. This isn't a huge deal, and may be by design.
I hope this helps. None of these issues really took away from the enjoyment of the game.
Very simple, clever concept! Good graphics and would love to see more :D
Man, i tried 10 times to get past the second level, with no success. That space to squeeze your char between the ghosts is very tight! Also, the gravity is kind of weird, the char falls too slow!
Overall, nice game, with cool graphics and music (maybe the jump is a little odd though)! Good job!
I like the simple art. Sometimes the controls were weird when other buttons were pressed, like SPACE. Jumping didn't feel realistic.
Freakin' awesome. A bit difficult but the overall concept and execution are super clever. Would have been good to have a few easy stages to get used to the flashlight mechanic. Good game :D
Awesome game - nice art style, nice music, great mood. The problem with it, however, that it's not very intuitive. In many cases I didn't even understand why I died. Also, I heard water but I didn't see it - maybe it's because of my monitor, but still it should be more apparent. I like the Space Invaders like figures. :)
