  • The concept is great, shadows and light affecting your environment, and I understand it is a proof of concept demo, so I look forward to if this becomes a full game or however it goes. But yeah great proof of concept.
  • I liked the aspect of using the flashlight to hide the monster and render them unable to be seen. I wish that this game was in more of a playable state and look forward to it being in one! I think the potential to be a fun platformer is there and would love to give a playable version a try.

Tell us about your game!
The game is a horror platformer where you have to navigate through a haunted manor while something always seems to be moving just out of sight. Every time you shine your flashlight it's just the furniture...in different places then before

Extra Notes
We Tried! Were gonna keep working on this since we like the concept but we are more out of practice then we thought. thanks for pushing me back into trying!

it doesn't seem the game is in working condition, the light seems to work, rotating with the mouse, but other than that it does not seem to do anything.

The visual effect of the light is nice though.

We may not have gotten everything we wanted, but it does run smoothly on mobile
