Unfortunately I'm unable to play. I can't get out of the opening intro screen.

cool idea I loved the art, at one point I felt like I was stuck tho, I was getting hit by a skull over and over and could not move, turns out I was running the wrong way the message was confusing me, I thought I could not move because the skull was hitting me when I was just stuck in a few walls and had to find the right way to go.

Score of 91, there was one fire I found that wasn't lighting the area next to it, but I was still able to collect it. Interesting idea and a good use of the theme.

Nice idea ! For me at least using R to restart didn't stop the music, resulting in multiple instances of the music running at the same time, which made it a bit hard to locate the fire hahaha

Really nice work on this one! I really liked the music and the sound effect, the artwork is quite nice, and overall I think this is a really cool concept executed really well :)

I really love the concept behind this one, though the level design feels a bit unfair. After the first playthrough, I had to just give up and reset because I fell in enough pits and the death 'pellets' kept me stuck in an infinite point loss loop.

On the second try, however, I was able to use knowledge of the previous playthrough to find all (or a lot) of the torches. I like the dance at the end, and again the concept is fun.

I also liked the idea of leading the player at the start by putting them in darkness with the only visible way forward at the corner where you first find a torch. However, maybe don't block that first torch with walls because it's very easy to get stuck, lost, and frustrated.

A great concept though!
