Use of the limitation
I only used 5 colors! Tough for me as I am a big fan of color palettes. I used the 5 Crowns color palette from Lospec submitted by Sk3ll Sk3ll.

A very fun game. Pleasant music, simple but charming graphics (the monster eyes and the backlighting on the Captain's face and body when he turns on the flashlight are both nice touches). The control scheme is a little unusual, but the controls are responsive. I also appreciate the mix of challenges, which are presented in an escalating pattern and never feel unfair.
In the spirit of constructive criticism, I would suggest that a bit of head motion be added to the character's walk animation.
Thank you for the feedback! I could definitely see tweaking the animation bringing the character to life!
Cool game! I loved the idea of using your flashlight, and it was really well implemented too. The new concepts, like enemies and platforms, were introduced well too. The controls were a little difficult to get used to though, but they weren't too difficult. And I loved Flavio too - really added some personality to the game. Good work!
Thank you for taking the time to play through it!
The dialogue and platforming were fun! The camera panning when respawning was a bit slow for the later levels which are longer, but I liked seeing how the flashlight affected the environment and the art was great!
Thanks for the feedback! The camera panning was something I had not considered with the bigger levels!
I love this game! Great mechanic using light, awesome music and story that empower the inmersion.
Congrats for an awesome game and finishing the Jam!
Thank you so much for taking the time to play through it!
the art style is really charming and I absolutely loved the animations!
Thanks so much! I referenced Vimlark's video on sprite creation, and that helped a lot with animating!
Nice game - very cozy. I like the ideas and the writing was fun! Good job!
Thank you for playing!
Music is great! Controls are a little awkward at first, but once I played a bit I got used to reaching for C. Fun!
Thank you for the feedback!
I really like how the game looks and the concepts of the flashlight interacting with the surrounding is really neato! something about that flashlight just feels so right and good
oh and Flavio is such a charming AI
Thank you so much for playing, and thank you for the feedback!
hey what a nice combination sound/graphics...
Thank you!
