Nice work ! The music and graphics do wonders for setting the mood !

Music did wonders for the mood. Simple concept, and pulled off well :D.

The first ghost actually made me jump out of my seat! Well done!

I would like it if things were zoomed in more so I could see if better though.

cory-leach 2013-04-29 08:20

well done. Resolution was a bit too tiny though maybe.

lrdkzrth 2013-04-29 08:55

Great idea, great audio, and the simplistic graphics were a delight. Very good!

loxo 2013-04-29 08:55

Great atmosphere! I like the graphics.

graytest 2013-04-29 08:57

Graphics and audio is great! I didn't expect it, but got scared (heart racing even) everytime I had to escape a ghost! I'd like a bigger window to see a bit better however.

Cool pixel-y lighting effect! Nice work

hgouveia 2013-04-29 09:01

Great ! i like it a lot :D

sonnybone 2013-04-29 09:02

LOTS OF SCARES CRAMMED INTO THIS LITTLE BOX! I've heard that audio elsewhere before, though, so I can't rate you as highly on Audio and Mood. :(

I'll be passing this game around to my friends. Lots of fun!

Amazing!!! Minimalist and scary!! Sometime "Press any key" do nothing, I have to press and press...

Magnus 2013-04-29 09:59

C'mon, man. Jump scares? Too spooky.
This is a good minimalist concept though, also that raycasting is kewl.

san 2013-04-29 10:00

Good work, a bit too smaill though.

gre 2013-04-29 10:06

I like the atmosphere, especially with the audio and the shadows :)

grimpunch 2013-04-29 12:55

Funny. :)

8bitpimp 2013-04-29 12:57

I like this a lot. Very simple, but executed very well. Good work.

pickehut 2013-04-29 13:01

Awesome game! And quite scary too, actually.
Graphics and sounds are great!

stiju 2013-04-29 13:04

The audio and lightning makes everything perfect. Would really like to see something like this but bigger in the future.

muton 2013-04-29 13:04

Really like this, but I can only sensibly play it with my browser zoomed to the max!

ivan_ 2013-04-29 13:13

Really interesting game. And I like the shadows

judasbenhur 2013-04-29 13:20

pretty awesome! The second level is quite hard tough. I like the graphics. Bigger screen would be nice :)

optimality 2013-04-29 16:00

Fantastic audio work.

exclamation_mark 2013-04-29 18:59

:D:D!! Excellent! Love it. Excellent. Thou there are some rules regarding using music. As in "make your own" :].

cagedrat 2013-04-29 22:10

It's a terrifying tiny box.

saggiosoft 2013-04-30 09:42

Great!!! One of my favourites!

sirdorius 2013-05-01 10:49

Fantastic. My only gripe with this game is the small resolution.

kgs0142 2013-05-02 09:29

I like the ambient and the mood!
Good job!:p

saintheiser 2013-05-02 10:19

Pretty well!
Despite minimalistic design, atmosphere is horrifying =)

bummzack 2013-05-04 16:29

To everyone that has played, voted and rated my game: Thanks a lot. It means a lot to me.

This was my first time I participated in ludum dare and it was a blast. Apparently I violated a rule by not creating the music by myself... will definitely do that the next time I participate!

robotality 2013-05-04 16:31

Great music, this really pushed the atmosphere! Great job.

rezzish 2013-05-04 16:33

I thought it was kind of cute actually. And those shadows look really good.

detocroix 2013-05-08 17:45

Excellent mood. It wasn't scary as such, but very tense!

mathio 2013-05-11 19:10

Great entry! Terrific sense of tension, sometimes compounded when I got momentarily stuck on a wall. I really like the balance of having light increase as time passes (allowing you to see more) with the fact that this will likely attract more ghosts, plus the crescendoing music on top of it all!

dector 2013-05-12 20:14

Nice minimalistic work!

cyberyeti 2013-05-20 07:15

Amazing mood, It's incredible how scary it actually is even though it fits the theme. Really great work!

turbodindon 2013-05-20 08:23

Hehe the mood and music are scary!^^

Eeeek!

ovenchips 2013-05-20 12:42

The audio is the star here. It really shows how easily a player can be put on edge. Nicely done!

georgebroussard 2013-05-20 22:21

Enjoyed the mood and audio a lot. Wish the screen was bigger?
