This game was fun to play, I like the horror theme in it too. Nice idea and fitting to the theme. Failed a bit at the start but learned I had to learn by trial and error memorising the right path to take

The aesthetic of your game is on point! I'm a huge fan!

Gameplay is simple but effective! Would have appreciate a bit more challenge.

I had a great time, thank you for making that game!

I love some old school horror! You nailed the aesthetics & the atmoshpere. Introducing the light post mechanics helped to freshen up the experience, nice touch. Absolutely in line with the jam's theme and more than worthy entry! Thanks for sharing.

One minor criticism is the noise post processing FX, which just comes down to personal preference. But this is true for the screen shake in my submission, so I'm guilty of it as well :)

Awesome-made game, good atmosphere, very nice connection (pun intended) to the theme. It feels extremely polished as other people have said aaand I have nothing to add xd. I loved it

Very good atmosphere and art/sound direction. Its a good game. A bit short but the puzzles here aren't the easiest in the world and the introduced mechanics work pretty well.

Extremely polished game - as others have said the atmosphere was nailed down to great effect thanks to the fantastic art direction.

Connection to the theme is as clear as can be. My only critique is that I feel like the puzzles may have lacked depth a little bit (although the placing light posts mechanic did help to reduce that problem a lot.)

Overall, it was an extremely fun and impressive submission!

The game is well done, it takes you into a very special atmosphere, and that is due to the art and the music and the sound effects I really enjoy the game, maybe I would have preferred to have a more lit environment , because it's important for the strategy, but it's only a detail, nice job.

Great concept and atmosphere, those lurkers really creeped me out, nice work!

Really cool game! I love the dark aesthetic (and the music works well with it). Simple concept, but quite a clever puzzle game.  Very well polished, especially with how little time there was. Well done!

Simple yet fun concept! Really nice art style and concise gameplay are the keys here ^^

So very well polished! I was amazed that this was made in a week, I loved the concept and the gameplay overall, great job!

Aesthetic is really good, I love the camera angle. To me, the music doesn't fit with ambiance but thanks to that I was braver than expected haha ^^

Awesome looking game! I love the PS1 graphics and the horror mood, very well done. Sometimes the light doesn't work.

Really like the aesthetics, really simple mechanics. Overall very good game.

The really cool and unique art style definitely set this game apart! The gameplay was interesting and tense. I appreciated that even when you failed to connect a node, you weren't overly punished and could experiment without being afraid of losing too much progress. The symphonic soundtrack added to the creepy dissonance in the cave, it gave me a Clockwork Orange kinda vibe. A really solid entry, nice work to the team!

Wow this is amazing. Only the music was a bit annoying. It fells like levels without level crossing and I like the artstyle.

Its fun. 

The main drawback is the brakes when monsters walk. In the style of an old PS. Good job.
