Interesting! For some reason, reminds me for a moment “Plant vs Zombie”.

The game looks good and has smooth controls, but right now the gameplay feels kinda bare bones. I think you should make the ghosts attacking you do more than just stunning you, and show up more frequently, as i only saw like 3.

Very cool game! It was short but sweet. Some possible improvements would be to make the level darker so that the flashlight has more of of use, and to make the ghosts more common. Other than that, great job!

A wonderful horror film in a minimalist style. I'm interested in walking through this dark place. Excellent work.

Nice to see you enjoyed it despite how unfinished it was!

Interesting concept! I would make the map smaller, since there isn’t much variety.

Care to add on what made it confusing for future reference?

So I can’t find the vending machines and I was just wandering around. Maybe next time add some instructions or clues to guide me to where the vending machines are.

Great game. The idea is really cool. I would add a fullscreen mode option and make the scene darker with brighter lighting for better contrast. Overall, excellent work. Also, check out my game and leave your feedback.
