Well, I didn't find my way out but I had fun playing. 👻 

Really enjoyed the tension you built with the torch-light + ghost mechanic — having to navigate with limited vision is a strong theme, and the atmosphere is really solid for a solo jam entry. A few polish touches on controls or performance (especially on web build) could push it even further. Great work!

If you’ve got a moment, I’d love for you to try my jam game too:

Nice. I couldn't make it past the ghost, but was fun to play around with.

Nice little game here! I really like playing small experiences like this. It reminded me a lot of small indie horror games I used to play!

It felt very cool dealing with the problem of managing torchlight to avoid attracting the ghost.

I found that navigation through limited vision was quite an interesting concept. While playing, I often thought about how this concept can really make for tense situations!

Great work on this solo project. Best of luck for your future games :))

It seems like the cursor isn't locked to the game window, which makes it very difficult to move the camera. Not sure it this is an issue with the game, the way it was exported / built or an issue with the settings on itch.io

Is there a windows build? Web build really lags for me
