Atmospheric music. Interesting gameplay and graphics. Especially the trick with the eyes in the bushes and scrolling the latitude of the light angle. I played with pleasure! :) The only drawback is that there is no "exit" button from the game.
Awesome game! Great graphics, mood and puzzles. I liked the fact that when you die, you start back from the last level instead of the beginning. This really helped me play a lot more of the game.
Hi! I really like the games concept! The scrolling wheel light mechanic is really something that surprised my because I've never really seen that before! The idea really got me hooked when I realised I had to shine the light over obstacles! However I do feel that the time taken for the plants to grow back can be longer! If you ever wanted to expand on the mechanics, perhaps having casted things cast shadows to do xxx things could be a cool way to add dynamics! Great work overall!
Nice art and idea! Liked the scrolling thing. Congrats on your first entry!
Cute atmospheric game with interesting concept! Could've had more sounds in general, but the music did fit the mood well.
Maybe it would be worth a thought push the enemies away a little when loosing a life - it's nearly impossible to escape when cornered by several monsters at once without loosing another life.
Such a nice game, great job on this one even if it was really too hard for me ^^ Those creatures are nasty. The graphics have a nice Don't starve vibe and the music helps the immersion.
Thank you very much everyone for your kind comments and helpful feedback. We really loved making this game and can't wait to get it back in hand to improve it.
This game is so cool, once you get you have to light ALL the monsters in order to pass to the next level... mmmmhwa is so nice, but it gets frustrating when 1. the trees grow up so fast and there is no pause with esc I had to hard close it. But im looking forward to keep on playing because i was in a meeting when i was checking the game. AND i really need something to push back the enemies, is pure anxiety when you want to get out and you cant and you just stand there loosing your matches xD
The animations are nice, the story aww and the art so cool. Also the idea of using the mouse scroll... beautiful.
This might be so far the most fun game I've played today!! The art style is gorgeous, the menu stunned me! The game runs and plays so smoothly and is generally enjoyable to play! Thank you for making this game!
I too thank you all for all these compliments your are giving us! I am very very very grateful to see all this appreciation for our little game. And as the artist, it warms my heart to read all your kind comments on the game art.
Wonderful game! Love the art style, its right out of a childrens story book :). The puzzles are fun. The music is great too. Great job!
Nice entry! Your art is great, and your Level Design is nice too. Each and every level is challenging in it's own way, love it!
The atmosphere in this game is great, but the mechanics felt a bit weird at times, like the level where the flowers were first introduced, the light shining through the roots on the lower right, but only working once the roots are gone.
With a little tweaking however I think this could be a really cool game. It is visually very pleasing and the music is also nice. Really well done altogether!
Really nice style! The timings in the game can use a bit of tweaking, tho loved the atmosphere a lot!
The music slaps right off the bat!
I liked this game, even though I've reached a level that was a bit too messy for me to get through! The atmosphere is nice and creepy, and the mechanics are simple but well built. Good job!
This looks so good. Great job setting the mood. The forest theme is in my opinion really a good fit! Fun game! 👍
A 2.5D Alan Wake! :D Great attention to details! Loved the art style and the music. Sometimes I have had the impression that the colliders of the obstacles and the eyes aren't matching so well the visual. A little tip: I had the same problem making UI panels full screen in Unity, try to set the background image of the panel in the canvas to "none". Good job!
Truly amazing work on thais one! Both art style and mechanics wise. The music feels a bit off, I think the beat is too loud. I did manage to get stuck on the wall at some point, but apart from this great job, I really like it!
Wow! A great concept! Nice art and inventive flashlight mechanic! It took me too long to figure out what I needed to do though - I had to find out from the comments. Then it became fun. The trees grow back too fast. :) Also, sometimes you can get stuck between the trees and the monsters - not so good. :) The music gets a bit repetitive, but it's still nicely done and well fitted for the game. Overall - nice work and well polished! :)
I think the enemies should remain staggered a little while after you stop pointing the light at them. I couldn't see any difference when changing the light intensity. I thought it's supposed to damage the enemies more when the light is focused.
For me it was impossible to get the timing right on the third screen. But I like the concept and the art, you guys did a great job.
