I really like the concept and the vibe of this game. Pixel art doesn't scare me, but I underestimated this one. I absolutely love the mechanic of light slowly fading out as you struggle to find more fuel for it. I really appreciate the horror games which focus on psychological horror than jump scares.
The art stye is good, the main menu music is..... well, let's say I spent more time on the main menu screen than the game itself and now I can't get the tune out of my head XD.
Talking about in game sound:- I was a little disappointed when I realised that there is no background music, but I guess it works in favor of the overall theme. After all, you are in a haunted house, where the only sound you will hear is doors and floors creaking.

Ok so talking about areas of improvement:-
1. Doors are a little buggy, They only allow you to pass after you approach them from a specific angle.
2. As much as I like the game mechanic, I found that the fuel was burning way too fast, even on easy mode. And by fuel, I don't mean the slider on the bottom left, I mean the circle of vision. You are not just collecting keys and opening doors, you are reading all the notes, trying to figure out what happened and exploring the house as well. Unfortunately, I couldn't complete the game because it was impossible for me to explore the house after half of my fuel is depleted, because the circle of vision gets too small.

I will say that this game has potential.
