Hey — I just played your jam entry and really enjoyed the concept and atmosphere in your game. The blend of mechanics and tension works well, and the visual design is engaging. One suggestion: adding clearer instructions or a brief tutorial could help new players understand the objectives faster, and maybe some feedback indicators for key actions would improve the overall experience.
If you’d like, please check out my game and rate it: https://itch.io/jam/gamedevtv-halloween-jam-2025/rate/3971977
— thanks so much and best of luck in the jam! 😊

I liked it, that was great! I don't know if it's meant to be so dark, but, I found myself not being able to see much in front of me, got stuck several times. Left->right->look around did the trick!
The overall atmosphere is great, eerily quiet, I walked the street up and down, it kinda gave a "something's watching me" feeling. Great work!
Thank you so much for the feedback! I did want the game to be very dark but not TOO dark so I was going to add a brightness slider for the people with darker screens but I sadly ran out of time...
Small but cool experience — the atmosphere nailed that Halloween vibe. Really liked the Slenderman-style mechanics; simple but effective and fits the theme perfectly.
Thank you for the feedback fellow Lantern!
Oh wow, I didn’t even realize! 😂 That’s actually really funny. - go lanterns, go!
