The art is gorgeous !
The game didn't run on macOS despite even fixing the file permission error (chmod +x). Can you at least upload a video?
@lerg Hi! Sorry about that, it should be fixed by now :)
@efilheim Thank you!
Just played, looks really good! It wasn't intuitive at first what to do. Completed two levels. Get more ratings!
Beautiful art style! I'm terrible at the game though, I found the first level really easy and the second suddenly a lot trickier! It felt really unique, trying to pretend I'm some big scary boy while hiding how cute I am from the humans, such a great twist!
Very interesting take on the theme, beautiful art and atmospheric nice music. One feedback: even after I make them runaway, if I go to their torch on the ground, I lose the game, is it a bug? Other than that, very solid entry, good job!
Wow this is such a beautiful and creative game! I mean sure, the theme is a bit stretched but man everything about it is just perfect. You should really go rate some more games to get some exposure because it's a downright pity not to get past 20 ratings. Well done!
Fantastic graphics really! And really great mood with the little flutter sound adding a lot. Some more music and perhaps sounds from the flames and such would have been great.
I was taken a bit by surprise the first time I failed because the weakness meter in the corner both didn't sufficiently attract my attention when it was filling up and wasn't entirely clear when exactly it would mean game over.
While starting each level felt a bit strange that I was zoomed in on the people and needed to flutter to get to see myself.
Very well made entry and hope you can gather some more votes the game these last hours.
-Great artstyle, i love being a fuzzy creature! (Also sad creature cause i lost a few times) -It isn't quite clear when the people get frighten and how near you can get to them but maybe it just needs a bit practice -Game over when you are near the torches even when there are no people around? -Get sometimes stuck between trees -Sometimes when you loose you still have the blurry screen ect but can go and scare people and not die when they see you. -Window too big (or my screen to small, cant fit it on one screen so the indicater onthe top right is cut of)
STILL WOULD PLAY AGAIN.
Need a bit sanding at the edges but cool concept and art. Also love the lil skittering noises when i walk!
I really like the idea! Style is excellent. Design, animations, sounds… Just great.
The core concept of the game is also interesting and fun. I just got stuck too many times in trees. And it was not always clear why I lost. I think the light sources turned off in rare occasions, so I had to pay attention to the torches themselves.
Very nice! Sad that it got that few ratings though...
A cute little game! The game over made me smile just as much as when you win. I honestly thought the game over would be getting beaten to death or something XD. I liked the graphics and lighting as well. Good job!
I really liked this. I felt that "they realised you aren't scary thing" seemed quite inconsistent. I thought the point was to not stand in the light to much or you get seen which I wasn't going (I think?) but sometimes I would be running around hiding behind trees and it would randomly pop up. I really like the feeling that the ambient sound and sp00ky graphics give - I wish it could be fullscreen so that you can become fully immersed. I think this concept for a game is really good and you guys did a great job with it. With a little bit of refinement you have an awesome little stealth game. Great job!
Amazingly cute game! The idea of going around as a [not that scary] mothman is something I really enjoyed. The stealth mechanics paired with not being able to get too close to the light was a lot of fun. The art was obviously incredible, and the sound of the mothman scuttling around was very good as well. The only thing to note would be sometimes the people would get scared when I couldn't see them and then run offscreen, but overall a really cool game. :)
Omg it's amazing! Game concept is cool and all but little graphical details are the selling point in my eye. Good work!
