Great vibe for the game, and I love the graphics and Candleboy. The hitboxes for the torches feel very off and there's very little feedback for the player whether they've lit the correct torch and which colour light they're currently carrying - you can sort of tell in darker areas but very difficult to tell in brighter areas.

Very spooky indeed. I loved the 3D art you did and the music was very eerie. I felt that the menu was too dark and it was hard for me to read the instructions. Overall great job though!

Thanks a lot for the feedback! Yeah the menus are dark, I'm glad we included the glowing cursor in the end! if you don't mind me asking, how was it difficulty wise?
