- Even though there were a few times I didn't pay attention to my surroundings, so the enemies did get to me, I was able to grasp the controls quickly. I do like the idea of having to then defeat said enemies to be able to use whatever is leftover from them to increase visibility. I found the way the themes were implemented fairly interesting; besides the more straightforward use of shadow--the creatures that roam around, and the light sources. In regards to alchemy, the lore of the story--wherever the plague originates from--makes me think of hidden knowledge. The art and music were also done very well, and the intro scene was a nice touch too. Though, I would have liked to have a way to adjust the music, so that I don't have to decrease my own volume settings before actually playing. Overall, this was nicely done, so keep up the good work!
- The design, music, and gameplay were all smooth. I wish there was more reward for bringing back the light (like the shadow monsters avoided it/hurt by it). Overall a pretty good game with an interesting story.
