I really did get a little scared. Great ambience.

Submitted

It certainly gives that fear sensation, seems like a sect has been kidnaped you just for fun. Personally, i don't like horror games, but this is great. Like graphics, lights and atmosphere. Maybe only the message that drops when you see an statue shall be more creepy too.

Good work.

Developer

Thanks for the reply/giving the game a try! I definitely agree with the message on the statues, it really doesn't fit theme wise with the rest of the graphics (it was the last thing i put in, and while not hard to implement I was pretty done with the game at that point :) ).

I like the graphics and the lighting gives a nice atmosphere.  Sometimes the ghosts feel a bit unavoidable (or maybe i'm just bad) . Nice game!

Developer

thanks for giving the game a try! The ghosts can certainly sneak up on you as your field of view is pretty small (256 x 240 resolution). I should probably have them spawn in with disabled colliders until they finish spawning in though as u could certainly have one spawn right in front of or even on your position.

really cool, the graphics are great :)

Developer

Thanks for giving it a try! I really like making the pixel graphics (I use pyxel).

This was an unfinished jam project (had a week, took me ultimately 2). I like the way it came out, hopefully you all will enjoy it too.
