The game was an unexpected find in this jam. It has a cool vibe with surprising gameplay twists. At first, everything looks like a dungeon crawler, but the game gradually makes it clear that it’s not. Also, I have to mention that the music does its job perfectly.

I played this game multiple times to make the different choices and see if there were multiple endings. Did not disappoint. I also found out the levels are actually procedurally generated, so quite the amount of work went into this. I'm a sucker for these more artsy type of games so you had me hooked from the start there. I think the atmosphere was pretty good, the writing was also cool, the music is top notch... If I were to criticize something, first thing that comes to mind is those traps. I don't understand what were they doing, did they actually do anything? Mechanically, they made no sense. I think the idea is that they were important for the endings and the theme of the game of self sacrifice or self defense, but mechanically they weren't there. Art also was cute, but could use a bit more work. Overall, I really loved the vibes of this game, great job!

Interesting game! I liked the theme and atmosphere. Keep up the great work :)

Great writing, instantly intriguing. And for some reason the gameplay was actually pretty fun, I think because of the limited vision and the maze design.

I liked this creepy story and its atmosphere. The music also works perfectly for the vibe. But to me, the whole part with the ghost flying back and forth, trying to create gameplay, feels unnecessary. You just end up hustling this ghost through a maze, thinking, “When will this tedious chore end so the next story slide appears?” I believe this game should have been a full-fledged visual novel. That’s where it would truly shine.

Very original and creative. I had some issues with the text style being hard to read and the traps being hard to understand. One of the games I did manage to complete, however. More of a story-focused exprience.

The bottom text lured me into triggering traps multiple times, but of course they only act once. IMO they should be removed after that, but that is just what godot wants me to do. Kudos for using pygame. It was a really interesting game. I would have liked smoother movement, but that's a challenge for me to see if I can pull off in pygame. I smell the M.U.D. potential here.

Music was great; could have been longer, but I can't miss what I never had. You even had another track for the end game which I didn't listen to so much.

With the darkness, how come a row wasn't set aside for white text? The font was nice, but I would always pick legibility over style; but I never even found a pixel font.

Pretty interesting work and ideas.

Bottom text need outlines to be readable if there is tile behind

The story in this game was great and really creepy! It made me want to know more about the world this takes place in. The gameplay wasn’t too exciting, but I know that this was a game made to tell a story rather than to have the best mechanics. Overall, great entry!

I really like the sound. Also multiple endings is always fun, makes me want to replay to see what I missed, I found there to be a surprising amount of content too. Without going into detail about the endings I must say I thought they each were specifically very creative to the theme and very original :)

As others said, great interpretation of the Theme!

Pretty cool that you managed to create a creepy, uncanny athmosphere within the technical constraints of the jam. I guess this is in large parts throuh the good writing.

I was very pleasantly surprised with this game! Going into it I wasn't expecting the creepy vibe that it had, but I really enjoyed it! Only thing is the font was a little hard to read, but it definitely helped sell the vibe. Great job!
