I really liked the art style and atmosphere this game gave, gave me sort of Klei-style horror elements like from Don't starve. All in all the gameplay was pretty enjoyable, a little tactile at points however for your first attempt I think it's excellent! 

Good job!

The game sounds and visuals were awesome! Worked well. Did kinda get stuck in the middle a little bit at times and wouldn't move far but other than that, good game! Well made!

Awesome menu, cover art and sprites. A simple yet effective game that blends really well with the audio to create a really eerie atmosphere. My only issue with it really is that when you outrun the darkness for a good while there's nothing going on but me spamming click. A very nice submission though.

A solid submission within the short amount of time, liked that the longer you attempted to survive for then the harder it got, loved that there was a timer and sound included, its hard to think of something that could be improved within this, a strong submission in my opinion, Great work!

I really love the art style and atmosphere you have made! The darkness is very creepy and when you see it, you do really want to avoid it. Really good game!

This game produced a really nice atmosphere with good ambiance and a clear increase in difficulty. This created an enjoyable tension when you could see the darkness slowly rising and catching up to you.

Really enjoyed the style throughout reminded me of Coraline or Tim Burton

Great atmosphere, I could picture this game having a cool lore/story!

Love the atmosphere you created, I was genuinely creeped out. The art, text and music come together really well! Although the gameplay is simple once the monster starts getting close you get a real sense of impending doom. Great job for your first game!

Really cool game with amazing visuals. I really like how you added music which gives it all a creepy vibe.

A visually appealing submission that definitely focuses on the user experience through a decent art style and audio. A nice difficulty progression that I think has a foundation that can be built upon to make something worthy of putting on a marketplace.

Consider how you are exporting your game and presenting it to an audience, is they way you have done it truly the most efficient? Secondly, using two fingers to double click is a bit too strong, especially if you use the tactic early on. You might want to think about how to balance and address such tactics, if at all. 

Overall, I think this is a well polished and solid submission. With some more work on the gameplay itself and perhaps the character animations etc., this would be something that could be put on a mobile marketplace perhaps. Good work!
