Fun little game! Almost missed the actual ending since I looped back to the start and didn't realize where I needed to go. I liked how you implemented the little "bosses" and they all had different behaviors. I also really enjoyed the whole use of light! I know I need to learn how to use lighting and such.
I'm not sure what the orb powers actually did unfortunately but I did think it was cool to get upgrades esp for the attack!
One suggestion would be to keep the torch lights on, but provide only a little light. A portion of the game was really just "memorize where you need to go and walk in the dark" which is a fair challenge to present but it didn't always feel fair. I think what would be better is to leave the torchlights on, but if you take the orb off then they only produce a small amount of light.
thank you for the feedback and seeing our game through! totally agree with all your suggestions. this was my first game jam, so will keep in mind to give more time for play testing next time - as we had just finished adding everything with like 7 minutes to spare haha!
Really impressed with how much content you managed to get done! Unfortunately I got stuck in the room with the ghost and the two lifts, but that was still a lot, including a boss fight! Really well done ^^
hehehe thank you!! the ghost can be kind of a jerk.
