Overall a fun little stealth game with splendid graphics, my two nitpicks would be, I guess that I wish there were some button to pass turn without moving and I wish the duration of the move animation was a little slower, otherwise, very nice!
@$162477 thanks for playing the game, passing the turn without moving would unbalance the difficulty of the game thats why we didnt add it. As for slow animation, it was making the game feel very unresponsive.
"Impressive game, Very cool concepts. I left wishing that there is more. Had a lot of fun "

It is a fun game ! Reminds me my childhood with this design and mechanics. It's reaaly cool ! The game is very easy to take in hand, it's really pleasant. I like the sounds, it work well ! Very good job ! :D
Cool game! Really liked the concept! I really like the audio!
Hey, guys!
Passed your game!
Nice entry! A pretty classic view on a turn-based puzzle.
Art is well polished.
It would be really nice to see a little bit more of level design. Looks like your mechanics can handle more.
But anyway, well done! :3

Cool roguelike. But still, you have a lot of flaws compared to other games of this genre. And the graphics ... Well, not bad in 3 days, if it is beginners in 3D. In general, I wish you good luck in GameDev and good luck in developing your skills)!

I liked the style, good music. It would be nice to add conservation, the enemies are driven into a corner.
@odeyalko thanks for playing the game what do u mean by conservation?

A delightful little turn-based stealth game. The mechanics work quite well and could easily be extended if you plan to continue development, i.e. make enemies that move twice per player move or just on every second player move. It could become quite an awesome puzzle game. The visuals are pretty alright too, just the background could've used some work. The audio is probably what I liked the most, it just fits the mood really well. Overall, I enjoyed playing this to the end, good job!
I really liked the music in this game. The turn based mechanic was very interesting, but I feel a little more could've been done to really turn this into a stealth driven game.

I liked the stealthy bits. Also models looked really nice. I don't see any problems with gameplay as well. Really nice!

I liked it! The visuals were pretty nice, and the audio suited it well. A nice layout for teaching the game as you go. It was gradual enough that the ending felt abrupt, but that's no issue for a game jam. Well done!
The sound effects play a bit late e.g. opening a door, i move towards the door, it dissapears and only 1 second later do you hear a sound effect.
Other than that, the mechanics are interesting, and the gameplay is fun.

Overall: A nice turn-based stealth puzzle - the spooky atmosphere is done well.
Fun: Nice! I made some blunders early on, and was left with only one life. But this put me on the edge of my seat as I crept my way through to the end! It's a puzzle game, really, but one that lets players off the hook a little bit, with the life system. I like it. If I had to make a suggestion, it'd be to have the camera out a bit further, so we can see more. (And make it longer!)
Innovation: Yeah, it's something a bit different.
Theme: OK, because you start with no inventory.
Graphics: Good!
Audio: Good!
Humor: While the spooky setting isn't outright funny, it did put a smile on my face.
Mood: The music sets the mood well! :)
Pretty fun mechanics, got to the end with axe to spare. Great job!
Pretty nice! The enemy AI could be a little better and it's strange to me that you have to let go of a key before it registers input, but it was a fairly fun game. The graphics and music are good

enjoyed the game, reminds me of older games fun yet not intense anxiety game.

Loved the music and the same-musical-key sound FX!
The purple background reveals cracks between tiles, a black one would have been more forgiving.
Also, it's a little annoying not to have keyboard auto-repeat.

Also, is there a "sleep/wait" key?

no we didn't have time to add it but i do think we should add one in the future if we pick this up again.

Nice stealth game. I enjoyed playing it and like the others said a wait would have been nice.

What a fantastic game! I liked the graphics, the music is suiting and pretty good and the sounds are great! It's a very fun game, good job to the team! It's possible to beat it without being detected? I didn't managed to do it so haha
Superb. You truely nailed the atmosphere.
Any chance you will make a post-jam version of this?

Cool demo for a game, and its Halloween themed too :thumbsup: Feels a little stuttery since you have to wait for all the enemies to finish moving even if you can't see them on the screen. Having a wait/do nothing for a turn option would've helped a lot, I ended up getting hit more than a few times because the I had to move towards the enemy to progress. I like how the player can see the enemies line of sight at all times, it helps for planning out what route to take. Seemed pretty short but it was a good demo!

Fun stealth roguelike. Sometimes I had issues with camera when going down the map, I could only see 2 tiles ahead of me, whereas going up it was like 10-15. I'm a big fan of roguelikes and I think they'd become even more popular if they were reskinned into nice 2d/3d packages like this one.
Super fun game! Music and graphics were neat, having this game be turned based was a good choice, though I feel that the inputs could've been a little faster so if you were going down an empty hallway it could be quicker. Other than that, you guys made a great game!
Hey, just to let you know I’ve been making Ludum Dare 45 gameplay videos and I’ve put your game in my video! You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/zoLZXTxFt0w
Interesting entry but some points could still be improved: the camera is a bit slow, and the player movement cell by cell too. Anyway, this turn based gameplay is quiet original and would make a cool game if pushed a bit more :)
player movement is a little slow and I found it was quite easy to get stuck in a corner with the ghosts but overall a decent little game
@digital-pie thanks for playing the game!
its a turned based game thats y the movement feels slow, also there is a retry button on the top right corner for when you get stuck
