Hey there, I played through some of your game in this video at around 34:55

I'll admit I couldn't get too far, but hopefully the video is helpful to see how some people will play it.

This is a really cool looking game, especially for your first gamejam! There's always stuff that ends up not making it into the submission.

In terms of fitting the theme, the one light thing doesn't seem to really affect the gameplay all that much. You could have lit the entire map normally and the game would be mostly the same.  I think ideally, the "only one" feature should be implemented such that if it were removed, the game wouldn't be the same any more.

Also, I didn't realise you could hide from the ghost in the hole, so I kept getting killed by the ghost.

Great job on your first jam, hope you had fun! :)

Neat little game :) You dont really have to implement more mechanics! Maybe refine more what is now? You could store the story bits as backdrop in the background. After all, the atmosphear is already great - could need a few more soundeffects!

I actually got goosebumps from this one. Just wish I got a bit of a heads up when the monster was coming (like the sound of footsteps) so I could have some time to look for a hiding spot instead of almost always dying as soon as it appears. 

Cool enough game. A little light on the jam's theme (pun intended). Artwork, especially the colour palette was great. Nice work!

This game has a pretty usual concept, but it's not bad. There are two major problems:

1. Level design and game play are boring, because I didn't have any interesting interactions via light.
2. The movement. Default movement kills the feeling that I'm playing as skeleton. It's awkward and feels like default controller.

Anyway, keep trying and improve your skills further!
