Cool entry! Nice graphics and ambiance, a small idle and walk animation for characters would improve a lot the feeling. The controls are not very accurate. The light area around the main character is imho too small, you can't anticipate at all the security guard, if we could see the guard's light area, or having some walk sound to indicates he's getting closer it would get another dimension to the game. The atmosphere is good when you're in the night, a bit stressful but ok. Keep up the good work :thumbsup:
PS: the Doom's character face on the computer screen make me laugh, i like this kind of small references, it makes the game more fun :wink:

@nidup Thank you for your comment :slight_smile:
I agree, I wanted to add walking animations, but I forgot at the end :persevere:
Also, the game has walking sound for the enemy, maybe the volume is too low.
Thank you for your time, I will check your games too :thumbsup:

Hey, I made it out! The mood got a lot scarier after the lights shut off :) I also found a creepy poster lol - nice work!

nidup have said everything I was about to say, so I just thumb up (notably about the too small light area, the lacks of any way to know if the guard is near, and the fun reference to Doom). About the sound for the guard, I noticed it, but too late to be useful (he is very fast!). Good work anyways, I'm sure like about everyone here you learnt something while making this cool game. ;)

Cute graphics and the music goes so well with the game. Wish there was more levels to play.

You are very right, I learnt that I must write down the changes that I want to make or the ideas that come to my mind, because I thought of the walk animation, tuning the sound volume of the enemy and lowering/change the music when the lights turn off. :sweat:
Thank you very much, everyone, for the comments! :smile:

Haha, spotted Doom guy's face too :D
I like the game's atmosphere, you can really feel the tension when the lights go out and you know that the guard could be right around the corner. The graphics are funny and original, as others said a few walking frames would make it even better.
I really like the ability to close and open doors. There seem to be some accuracy glitches there when you stand too close to the door, but it's a cool mechanic.
Nice job!
