one of the best implementations of the theme I've seen so far
Thank you!! :0
good job with audio and graphics
Thank you!
Nailed the eerie atmosphere. And love how the mechanics tie into the atmosphere. Small things like having to light up notes with the flashlight to read *chef's kiss*.
Maybe add a little more light to the main scene flashlight. Sometimes seeing a little more, adds to the anxiety of only being able to point it in one direction.
Thank you!!
Ah sadly too hard for me.
I kept failing at the third enemy. In the second level (not counting the room where you get the clock) you play with the clock rythm. Its just too exhausting to reply after a death when the movement is SOO SLOW. The rythm should really be faster.
Great atmosphere, but the flashlight could have been brighter.
Thank you for playing and for your feedback!
Amazing sound design! I especially like the pendulum mechanic <3.
Both the art and sound really sold an oppressive atmosphere that only got more intense as I progressed. Great work!
Thank you! :D
Very good combination of audio and graphics! Overall, I enjoyed this a lot :)
Thank you!
