Very solid entry! ^^
The gameplay fits the theme perfectly and it was fun navigating in the dark with it... or even when constrained without it. >v< The art style and visuals are on point and I did enjoy the retro aesthetic. :> The sound design is minimalistic but I think it fits the vibe well. :>
As others already mentioned, checkpoints or a saving mechanic would really help as it's quite easy to get caught and start all over. That being said, the monster design is amazing. We so need more of daddy long beak. <3
Still tho, very impressive being a solo entry. Keep up the good work! ^^

Thanks!
Sound design was a bit tougher to do since I have almost no experience with audio OwO''... But I was able to pull most of it off (like the fact there is no running sfx...)
And yea, those mechanics are definitely on the to-do list now.
Also daddy long beak is wild, that's his codename now instead of "bird" or just "monster" lmao
