Wow, for me, someone who is not good with scary things, I tell you this was a scary experience as I believe it was intended to be. The rock looks stunning and sound is also scary, good work.

Really liked the audio and the atmosphere.
Sound effects！Lovely art style!

The idea is nice, and the graphics are good, but the flashlight mechanic doesn't work well. It didn't light almost anything even at max power and most of the time you are jumping in complete darkness. Maybe a solid background will help.
That was spoooooky!
I loved the idea of your game! The only issue I had was using the flash light, but the lack of light at all times also added to the fear factor of the cave.
Was really scared when I fell into a hole and there were two ghost right above my head. The combination of 3d and 2d looked pretty good, making the walls of the cave nearly pop of the screen. I didn't understand why the file size was that big.
Cool weird atmosphere ! sprites seems a bit like placeholders but good job on lightings and blur :) this gives a great sensation of speed, but after a while you tend to be slower and more careful :p I wish there was some more sound fx and instructions. The atmosphere feels oppressing, dark and gloomy, and there is a little thrill when I meet ghosts :) I think you should give a little more light power to the player as the power mechanic does not seems to be always working as expected. I think i did beat it but i'm not really sure I won :p Good job !
Fairly spoopy, although there wasn't any noticeable drain of the flashlight power so I didn't see any reason to turn it off. Physics are pretty floaty which is a bit strange for this kind of game - led to a number of deaths where I was going fast and just ran into an enemy I didn't see and died. Some sort of audio cue for the enemies would help with both that & the general atmosphere. I liked the ambient sound otherwise though. Cool graphics although the sprites clash with the background. Would be cool with some tweaks, keep it up!
