The thumbnail art looks pretty nice but the download page downloads a .rar file, which I cannot open. Sorry ):.

Pretty moody, and really nice lighting. It just feels weird you can't light your candle from other candles already lit. (Or if you can, I couldn't figure out how)

Love the art, very moody. Wish I could light my candle from already lit candles.

I liked the mood you created and the game il really polished too. It's just a little bit frustrating how the candle lights off so quickly... This is an underrated game :)

Very good mood thanks to the sound design and the nice pixel art. It's too bad that we progress blind most of the time in a new room until we found a candle to light up. And may be light up her candle could slow the decrease of the phobia. Anyway it's a solid entry, well done.

Cool concept and very atmospheric. The manual lighting of each match is surprisingly tense which reminds me of the manual opening of doors in Amnesia. I like that you telegraphed the darkness bar nearly zero with a gasp of fear. Great job!

I love the matches mechanics to light up the candle, nice game with good interpretation of the theme 😃

The lighting of the matches was really nice, but I really got confused by how the game worked and she seemed to panic even with the candle lit.

Great atmosphere and I like the consistency of the pixel art style. Freaking hard tho! XD

I love the game mechanics and the idea how to light up the matches, but I don't get where I am allowed to be or not to be
