I like this concept. The flashlight reveals little about the place, and makes the game not easy at all. but I miss enimies

Finished in 17 seconds :) You should at least let the winning screen last 1 second, the first time I won I did not see the exit and won, which means that I was still pressing an "up" key so the winning screen disappeared instantly...

Interesting concept, the overlaid map is probably superfluous, and I gave up because I had no idea what to look for.

@stvr: Indeed, the level design is terrible :/ But the innovative point is about the overlaid map

205 seconds :|. well, i tidnt know wher i wanted to go. first saw the goal when i got to it. It was a litle bit frustrating to dont't at all know wher i whuld nd up. but i assume thats a part of the challenge :)

Awesome concept.

Boy, was I terrible at this. I finally found the exit, but I think I'll keep my score to myself... :P Cool concept, navigating a maze in the dark was hard enough, but the overlay really added another dimension of difficulty to it.

A very interesting mechanic, yet infuriating. Good interpretation of the theme, it just needed more atmosphere, the sounds became irritating and the game didn't look fantastic.

Sadly, I could not escape.

Got mine in 65 seconds! I like the tradeoff between moving and using your flashlight. I think some graphical and audio polish would've helped, as well as making it clear what the exit looks like. I did like how the exit turned out to be close to the start, though.
