  • The game is very basic from its approach, but does what it sets out to do. The weakest part in my mind is the while theme adoption. It feels very disconnected between all of the parts. Alchemy, Shadow, Guns. I think it would have been better to just change the wording, replace the gun by a wand/rod and use slightly different style and wording for example dragon's breath (shotgun), But I enjoyed playing it, looking forward for more.

This is a pretty cool use of the shadow theme, though I think the bullets should provide maybe a little bit more light because it's quite hard to find your way around the level. Well done though!

This is great! I love how your bullets being your light source is almost like sonar or echolocation. I can think of a ton of ways to expand this out into a full length game! Also the music was nice.

I found this pretty fun! I think the light radius could have been much bigger, as it made navigating the level VERY difficult. I also unfortunately got stuck on corners really easy, which led to some unfair feeling gameplay. Otherwise, I really loved the minimalist art and notes left around!
