I had fun playing. The game is hard which makes it fast paced (I always restarted !). It's smooth and I liked the simple but effective pixel art. The music could have been more "8 bit". But great little game overall.

Nice job ! I can see there is work behind that :) The pixel art is very nice, and the controls are decent. The musics while simple are nice ! But it's not 8-bit / NES style, but I can understand if you couldn't make 8-bit musics. As others pointed out tho, the game is pretty hard but since it's based on chance I can't blame you.
Btw, your HUD reminds me castlevania !
Good job my friend !

Final PartyThanks for the feedback ! You're right, I didn't think of doing the music as a 8-bit music and I was in a rush to finish it all before the deadline cause I wouldn't have had much time today to post the game. Moreover I'm a complete beginner in music making so it would have taken quite a long time for me to make a good 8-bit music.
Haha yeah it's quite challenging in the beginning. The best strategy is to buy 4 speed upgrades at the start then farm money / bonus rooms with a close to full light, then when you have something like 40 speed you can easily go past zombie/skeleton. Also don't forget to buy max health upgrades at the shop otherwise any monster will one shot you when reaching the darkest places.
Getting a "Drain" "Bite" "Throw" or "Heal" early also helps a lot
