Gosh I'm jealous how well you did that lighting. That and the other drawn game graphics makes it look really awesome. All I need is some things to do and I could wander around for hours in this place.

Really enjoyed it, the graphics we're amazing, especially the lighting, amazing job on that! The music was great too. I guess it could be a tad more difficult, but pretty damn good overall!

I don't want to be that guy, but there is no goal, and you just dodge enemis trying to loose them in a corner.
I loved the light effect and the old school design, even the music, but I really wanted a gameplay that was as great as all that ! But still, really nice work for a jam !!

Loved the lighting. Really wanted there to be some point to the game or some way to escape! But there doesn't appear to be anything on the whole level except health packs. Pretty fun though!

The mood is really excellent as people said : light is great! Concept is cool, maybe lacks a bit of feedbacks but this is a good idea for the theme ;)

Liked the lighting and the pixel art. You could have chosen a more creepy music to enhance the scary atmosphere, but overall great 5 stars from me ;)

Nice pixel art and music.

Great lighting and art, cool music. But everything else is missing, sadly. What's the point of moving? I can just let my guy stand where he spawns and get an unbeatable score. And the theme is nowhere to be seen. :p

Really really nice game and looks great. One flaw though is that the goal is to survive as long as possible I could just stand still and live forever. Maybe the monsters should move some to then find you. Or placing a goal or object that you would have to find to win/survive.
Nice variation from games where you should attack all enemies, here you need to hide instead, which is much more tense (according to me).

I will always love that kind if lighting. Makes anything visually more stunning.

Well done shadow effect! The game looks pretty solid overall, and weapon of choice is quite interesting too.

Very cool! needs some sort of objective or goal to work towards because you can sit in a corner indefinitely and never get attacked.

I loved the lightning, great idea, a bit on the easy side, but very funny. =)

The lighting is really nice, great job, the whole game looks wonderful. Nice take on the theme :D
