Excellent spin on being chased by a monster. The jumping tiles and limited light source make it super high stress in a way that freedom of movement wouldn't. Don't think I've ever played anything with that particular type of chase mechanic. With that being said I think being able to look around while retaining the tile jumping would be a good improvement. That way you could look back at the monster approaching you as you desperately try to jump tiles in the correct order. Also I do think the initial difficulty at the start of the game might be a bit much.

CrankIf you go back, you can fall out of the map through the door. It feels a bit inconvenient that you can’t smoothly rotate the camera or slightly tilt the view towards the floor - I keep stepping past the tiles by accident.
However, the chase element is genuinely scary, which works really well for a horror game!
Special respect for the fact that no one starts chasing you until you’ve gone far enough - it gives you time to get used to the controls.

Ghost NurseExtremely creepy. The grid-based movement is used in a clever way, since you can memorize and recreate discrete steps in a way you couldn't with fluid movement.
Unfortunately I couldn't quite figure out how to cross the chasm without the Glertch catching me and... glertching me.
