I really like this mechanic of moving the light source instead of the player itself. Its easy however to shake the light over the map quickly to discover the exits and find the monsters.

Nice idea, using same "thing" to explore for goal and control + beware monsters..

Well done! Cool atmosphere, nice gameplay and great music.

Quite nice atmosphere. Didn't find anything the first map, it just went on to the next anyway.

michaelhaii 2013-04-29 21:41

Cool idea, really hard though.

Nice little game. Well done

I love the music, and the graphics are neat. It seemed easy to figure out where the monsters were without waking them up, though, which made the whole thing a bit easy.

I like the concept and the implementation, but it's a little too easy.

Not bad for your second LD. Keep it going, I want to see what else you have up your sleeves!

I won the game! After I accidentally walked into the green door when I was supposed to walk into the red door. EFF GREEN DOOR!

Also, I don't know what any of the monsters actually look like because I'm a big scaredy and kept the light on the guy the whole time; if I saw anything at the edge of the light I ran the other way. :-)

Unique gameplay. Awesome mood. Kept urging the man to move faster!

Moody and silly at the same time. I like the mechanic, and I like the look of your monsters. Almost scary.

Ok, you're all right, the game is a bit too easy. You see, I didn't have much time to get it tested by someone else...

For me, a countdown would have been perfect to force the player to go faster.
Any other ideas to make it more difficult?

Nice entry seriously!

rujomarco 2013-04-30 12:59

so simple and so scary! could be enanched but stilla very good entry for the competition.

atraxgames 2013-04-30 17:43

Well, done, it makes me really anxious!

saggiosoft 2013-04-30 18:39

Not bad.

Cute game. I really liked your "non-music" music :) It was really good.

uhfgood 2013-05-01 05:00

That was pretty interesting, if a bit short. This would have also worked well in the "indirect action" LD (like one of the early ones)

th3dz 2013-05-01 08:39

Cool concept. Very simple and nice. Jumped at the sound of a monster the first time! :)

fakeyou 2013-05-01 18:16

The dragging of the light gave me some issues, it would regularly select the game which was very annoying.

Other than that nice game!

theomnis 2013-05-01 19:47

Awesome! The monsters look really scary the first time you see them.

kgs0142 2013-05-02 09:18

I like the mood!!
Good job :D

snakeeater 2013-05-02 19:40

Not bad, nice mood!

dsoft20 2013-05-04 07:59

Nice take on the theme, and nice graphics too :D

naufr4g0 2013-05-09 10:42

I like game idea and the screaming sound! :D

voxel 2013-05-18 09:53
