This concept could go as far as a linear puzzle-platformer where your vision is obscured by the mist. I found it very difficult to find the objectives. I had a big fright the first time I died xD.
I encountered a few bugs, the platforming felt a bit jank at times not letting me make jumps I thought I should be able to make. I think this was mainly due to the non uniform heights of the different jumps. I found the enemy could attack me through the floor which was funny. However apon climbing the top of the tower I was climbing I had a black box take up my screen and glitch out where anytime I moved my mouse it covered more and more of the screen with no way to fix it. The sounds and atmosphere work well for the spooky vibes, altho I would of liked to see more to tie it into the "medieval" theme.
Great Job!
