How does your game fit the theme?
it fits pretty well as it is dark and mysterious, the more you replay it, the more you discover, Im willing to add more secret stuffs and eventually achievments for you to collect

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
all code was made by me souly, and some assests are either edited, "borrowed" or just by me

The torch mechanic was really cool!

I'm not a big fan of the cutscene showing the level and the saw being right in my face by the time the cutscene was done with little time to react. There also should've been a controls list somewhere in the game. The death sounds were amusing though.

This one is kinda difficult for me to rate.

Objectively, It had something going for it until I got rekt not knowing where I was, and just laughed out of a weird confusion mixed with the kinda slapstick humour you’d see in Monty Python. I was kinda sorta confusedly entertained in a way I can describe it like that: slapstick humour.

Subjectively, I remember very vividly trying to do stuff like this, but being so scared of releasing it that I never did. Took me 10 years to take the courage to actually release something. You took the leap of faith, regardless of whatever bug or design issue, or anything. In a game jam, a released but flawed game is better than a beautiful project on your computer. Because you have something to show to the world, you are a game dev.

the mouse needed less delay tho, lost the lil guy. rip in pepperoni.

let the bro cook they onto somethin/10

Cool game, thou the camera showing the level is a bit annoying and unnecessary, but the death sounds are funny lol

Hope that you'll also play mine /jam/brackeys-12/rate/2973690

I liked the atmosphere, but i don't like jumping games in general, so i didn't finish it, especially since after every fail i had to rewatch the same "cutscene". But good job!

The metal clanking sounds made me burst out laughing for some reason. Really cool game though and a cool use of the torch!

The torch mechanic added a fresh and challenging layer to the platforming experience! I loved the creative atmosphere and the fun sound effects. The game had a few frustrating moments, like falling during the cutscenes, but overall, the gameplay was engaging and well-designed. A few more introductory levels to ease into the difficulty curve would make it even better. Great job!

I absolutely love the torch mechanic and wish it was utilized in more, different way aside from finding the path forward. All in all, a really great platformer and super impressive. Adding coyote time would make the platforming feel even better.

Thanks for sharing with my stream! Here's the VOD to your game: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2254453937?t=03h41m36s
