terrifying! had a lot of fun with this, love the aesthetics. really nothing to note here! great job

Submitted

The atmosphere sold this for me. Really cool idea!

Submitted

Awesome Art Style.

Submitted

I started off taking my time, but realized I need to go pretty fast to get to the lower levels without burning out. Really awesome style, love the old-school dungeon crawler aesthetic!

Submitted

omg the vibes were amazing!!!! i also loved the tension with the health too

Submitted

The lighting is so cool and the game gives off such amazing vibes. Great game!

Got to floor 15.

Great visuals and atmosphere.  It really nails the feeling of claustrophobia. Nice work.

Submitted

Nice mechanics to have the flame be your health and your ammo. I didn't really understand why I was shrinking even after picking up more flames from the torches, but great gameplay and atmosphere

Submitted

Love the atmosphere of this!! It has a lot of replayabilty and it's fun, snappy and quick. The enemies kept giving me little jump scares which added to the experience and I love the shaders/lighting used here.

Submitted

Cool game, love the atmosphere of it.

Submitted

Cool game! The style is awesome, I love the low resolution and the retro textures. The mechanics are very cool too! I wish that the hatches were a little easier to see, but other than that I think it was great!

Very nice little retro dungeon crawler shooter mix, but some of the mechanics took me a a bit longer to figure out and I wasn't reallllly sure how to interface with the game at first. I like that - it made me *think* about playing it rather than mindlessly flying through hordes of enemies, and try to figure it out for what *it* is. Great work.

I can't get past the 5th level for the life of me but I really liked the style and the atmosphere! :)

Submitted

Loved the artstyle, but it was bothering for the game to get harder (the player getting smaller) the less time i had; being punished making coming back harder, making punishing harsher, as a punition snowball effect.

Submitted

Nice game, didn’t realise I was shrinking until it was way too late!

Submitted

a fun game, but the fact that you cant regenerate to get tall and fast again gets me down. The visuals are great and the controls feel smooth. A great game with very good sounds as well

I probably should've put something saying you can shoot the torches lol

Submitted

Artstyle is goat. Looks super cool
