Awesome game! The atmosphere and audio were the highlights for me! It was hard to see which tiles to walk on but that was one of the only things causing friction otherwise I would easily just walk to the question marks which were very intuitive by the way. I think to make this game more successful another layer of friction is needed. I did feel tense the whole time playing tho and I also really enjoyed the exposition of the world. Great work!

Not a very difficult gameplay. Just move to the positions as fast as possible. The graphics and sounds are good, but it would be better if the non-solid sprite does not look very similar to a solid sprite or a wall sprite. Good game.
Good game with a unique atmosphere! I was going to say that to spice up the game just remove a spare battery but in the end according to the other comments, no haha
funny how I can choose to embrace the darkness, however it killed my suspense knowing that I can already see most of the map, the sound design was good, i got a bit scared because of the bgm, nice game
I concur that the battery runs out too fast, but otherwise I really do like the concept (worrying about your flashlight running out of power) and the story is appealing
Really cool concept! I just found it a little difficult to figure out which floor tiles I could walk on
I choose the darkness and die :)), why is there a choice to choose darkness and lose the game I don't now but made me laugh.
"made me laugh".
That is the exact point, you figured it out without meaning to.
There are RPGs that downright tell you with massive warnings not to press a button in the most foreshadowed way possible, but you can do it anyway and often game over and people do it because it's amusing to watch their characters do stupid things. 😅
Love the style. Wish it would be a bit more forgiving.
