That was a simple and fun concept...

The game ended too quickly though... I thought at least there would be a small boss fight after escape...

though I don't know how much tough it is to make a game in RPG Maker..

Who Let the Lights On???

It's pretty easy to trigger a turn-based battle in RPGM since that's one of the basic mechanics of jrpgs. I steered away from battles to focus on switches and lighting being the main mechanics. I did have to rush the final confrontation a bit and the original ending was supposed to be running away from the demon to find a way out through the hole in the closet ceiling, but distracting the demon and running was faster. I'm working on tweaks and will see if I can make the ending a tad less abrupt.

Hey Good Art, Music But The Game Feels Repetitive And I Really Don’t Like The Pokemon Nintendo Type Games Still 7/10

The art is great, the environment is very well built, I appreciate the click-through gameplay, I'm not a big fan of this type of games and I still liked it, 10/10

Gameplay was smooth. There was a small bug when entering another room where the lights were (graphically) on but the game thought they were off - but the light switch returned everything to normal, so not an issue. Neat execution!

Thank you. I was going through and fixing a few glitches like that I did not catch until after uploading. Did this happen in a specific room?

It was when going upstairs, the lights were visually on but when trying to read the book, it said ‘it’s to dark to read’ or sth but then was fixed by flipping the switch again. Can’t remember the exact circumstances that led to this though!

The art looks fantastice the only thing is that it does not really have the team light in it. 😎

Thanks. Light was supposed to be a major mechanic in the game since changing lighting added or removed things from rooms, but maybe it needed to be emphasized more. I might have had the characters say switches instead of lights a few times.
