Developer

Thanks :D

Felt really nice to place but i was starting to get confused on why was there so many chests in one place just for them to all be empty

Developer

Thanks :D

Yea I got many players said there were many chests that were empty, I think the goal was to search every single chest to find the key.

But after the game jam, I will reduce the amount of chests and I will add a chance for every chest to drop some pickups like health :D

Lot of polish on your game.  Music sets the mood well, and I like how you did a walking animation with the sprite scaling.  I was thinking maybe a rechargeable, short dash meter for those emergencies would be good.  I died pretty quick when getting swarmed.  Well done!

Developer

Thank you so much <3

Very happy you enjoyed the game :D

Great suggestion ! After the game jam, I will add a rechargeable dash to the game for emergencies :3

Thank you for the feedback <3

Well crafted game you got here! I like the torch = weapon mechanic! You could improve in level design though - placing like 30 chests in one room is not too much fun imo. Especially if none of them contain anything.

Developer

Thank you <3

Glad you like the game :D

Great feedback ! :o

I will reduce the number of chests around a lil bit and I will give them a chance to drop a pickup items like health ! :D

Love the flashlight as a weapon.  Feels so satisfying to use.

The amount of little visual touches you managed to add are impressive.

Quite difficult at times when the enemies suddenly appear before you have time to react, but maybe I needed to be more cautious :)

Developer

Thank you so much <3

Very happy you enjoyed the game ! :D

Yes sometimes the ghosts sneak from behind :o after the game jam finish i will make the game a lil bit easier :D

Neat Submission.

Nice art style. Really good job on the Audio in particular though. SFX sound polished, Music is fitting, and gushing wind really adds to the experience. Overall, you've built a game with a really good atmosphere and feel to it. Ticks the Theme box too.

For improvements, movement could feel a bit slow at times. Maybe add a sprint key/button. I'd also recommend switching from hovering cursor over ghosts to using a Ray of Light approach where any ghosts in the ray are damaged. Would make more sense given its a flashlight.

Overall, good submission. Well done!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much <3

Very happy you enjoyed the game :D

Amazing feedback ! <3

When the jam, i will either add a key to sprint OR to dash ! :3

And i will make the every ghost inside the ray of light take damage as well !

Thank you again ^^

This was fun! The music fit the eerie theme and the idea of finding the single key in a bunch of chests was interesting! The atmosphere was great, and this was overall a very enjoyable experience. (I also always love seeing a Gdevelop game in a jam!)

Developer

Thank you so much <3

Very happy you enjoyed the game :D

Yes ! I love GDevelop :3

Neat little game, definitely fits exploration.  I liked that the combat was based around the light, but I wish all enemies in the light took damage rather than only the one my mouse was scrolling over.  I wasn't able to beat the game, but it's a very nice submission.

Developer

Thank you so much <3

Very happy you enjoyed the game :D

when the game jam finish, I will take your suggestion and make the light itself deal damage to the ghosts rather than the cursor :3

Nice feeling of exorcism!!

Developer

Thank you <3

Glad i was able to transfer the right feeling from the game to you :D

I like the soundseffects and the fact did you did the total opposite with the light effect then me :D

Thank you <3

Yea i love lighting :3 your game also have good lights effects <3

High quality entry! Loved the level of details and killing the ghost felt super satisfying. I did find it a bit hard, especially because the ghosts can sneak on you from behind corners (maybe even through walls?) and there's no way to detect them before they get too close in that case. Still, one of the best entries I've played so far!

Developer

Thank you so much ! <3

Very happy that you enjoyed the game and find it satisfying :D

I will add some indicator around the player to tell him if there is any ghost near him to avoid the ghosts sneaking from behind ! :3

Thank you for the amazing feedback <33
