Jeeeeeeeeez loooooouise I scare easily and this game got to me! I could only play a few times before I couldn't take it any more! I'm not sure how scary this game was meant to be, but the mood of this game was really strong! A good entry, keep making games!

your game is super interesting but I'm lost. Couldn't figure out much. I did find an axe though! But god dang that jumpscare!

Great mood, felt the music and simple graphics worked well with the ambient. I had some problems with the input because I was on upper case keys and they didn't work, but the controls felt pretty nice after I changed to lower case. I searched a bunch of rooms but didn't find anything and died outside a couple of minutes later.

I wonder if a count down timer for the baddie appearing would be helpful. I definitely got a jolt from him popping up every time!

It's simple and straightforward and that's part of what made it so charming! Excellent compo entry.

Charming game! Like everyone else the baddie spooked me every time, haha. I wish it was explained that you could press L and R to move mid-air, and that the secret walls were easier to see (you had to tell me both of those when I played on stream). And the game was glitchy at times. Great atmosphere though and the graphics fit well!

Unique combination that you have succeeded well. I think it's great that you explain the keys/commands to use in the game again. The game window could still be bigger. But still a good little game. Congratulations!!

Would be great if you could try our game too. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/astropover

stupid screamer!

Finally, I was able to escape using the axe!! :D Nevertheless, I needed some tries, since I run out of time exploring. Nice idea!!

Nice little game. I couldn't solve many puzzles, I think I found an axe when I pressed 5 on a door, but that's all. Anyways, it was funny, and I like the combination of themes. The scarejump scared me shitless. I will keep trying until I beat it! The audio gave it a great atmosphere, by the way.

Good job! I love the mood, and the graphics are pretty good for minimalistic pixel art. This fits the theme quite well. I do wish it was a little easier, but it's good for a puzzle.

Good job, and good luck!

HAHA! That monster mask almost killed me for real! Loved the graphics and the audio. Congratulations on creating a really unique game! Just adding a title screen and the posible inputs would enhance the experience. Innovation award granted. Congratulations!

Come and try mine! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/tactical-hydra

Very nice entry. Wish I could play it in full screen. It's nice how jumping around can lead you into secret rooms. I didn't manage to get far though, as fun as being shocked and insta-killed by The Face is, eventually I got put off by randomness of it, or at least I failed to find any connection with playtime or current location to it's spawning. But it seems there is more to it than what I managed to find so far, I only saw surfaces of some puzzles but couldn't really get in deeper, so I'll def try to play more when I have more time. The game sure deserves more ratings, I think some people maybe give up due to possible confusion with text input being able to accept both single letter and two letter commands, experience would be smoother if keys which are not used (not L,R,J) were disabled.
