Really enjoyed exploring the world and falling foul of the traps. It's a shame the world is in the dark most of the time but I understand the reasoning. Big game with big potential.

They still find me even after I drop the light =( Too scary for me (got a scarejump at the start cause of that hand floating mid-air), still a neat game - well done! Plays nice in a browser - which is not that simple to achieve with lightning-based game.
Really cool atmosphere! A bit too dark for me, but that's the vibe and I can appreciate that!
Freaking scary also had no clue how to put the light away was a unpleasent experience to be a real monster bait :D But great job for the Atmosphere of the game!

Very fun, a little bit unerving getting killed by shadow creatures!
Thank you for submitting a great game!
Crumbling floors into pits with so many hounds is evil and I approve.
the enemies don't seem to regard the light's status in the chase at all and hiding or dropping the light didn't de-aggro the doggos for me :( but I like the idea. cool aesthetic and very lighting!
Dropping the light doesn't instantly drop their aggro completely. The monsters will run to the last place they saw the light and conduct a search before returning to their patrol. If you are in their path, they can still find you. They aren't completely blind in the dark, but their perception is greatly reduced, that perception goes up slightly if they are in search mode as well.
Thanks for playing!
Sorry if you read this twice, I accidentally posted it in the wrong spot and moved it here.
I wasn't sure what to do or where to go :-( The game looked very zoomed into the hand for me, not sure if that's intended. The models look great though and the musical atmosphere works very well!
Some great low-poly modelling and world building. Very unforgiving hounds though :D
