Game description
You’re an electrician trying to save a town plunged into darkness after a mysterious creature broke the light circuits. As you rush from building to building repairing the damage, the creature stalks you from the shadows, trying to stop you from restoring the power. Keep the lights on, stay alert, and protect the town from what hides in the dark.

Theme interpretation
We wanted to create a Horror-themed game, and brainstormed a bit on how we could implement "Waves", and because sound is a big part of a Horror game, we though of "Sound Waves", so what we did is, when our Monster made a Sound, like a scream, a Wave shader gets played to give the player a visual cue that he's in danger.

The wave effect on the ground is very cool. Restarting the game on death should be a little more streamlined, having to watch the car drive in each time got old pretty fast. Some kind of tutorial in game would also be useful.

Hey, thanks for playing our game! The feedback is much appreciated, we’ll look into it and improve it! These missing features are bugging me too, but we’ll add them after the votings finish :)
