Great idea! The game is very atmospheric, and the 3D art looks impressive, especially considering you only had one week to make it. It’s a shame you didn’t have enough time to add animations, though.

Cool game!!! I have bad memories at sea and it makes much more scarier to me, hehehe. Sadly since my monitor is very dark (I realy need to pick a new one) I didn't manage to find all anomalies.

Good luck!!! (Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free.  You are a pirate! Yar-har-fiddle-dee-dee...)

Nice game, i was jumpscared more than once!

I really like the genre of your game, but I'm bad at it, still really fun! The voice acting is really fresh, most people don't give attention to it, but it could have some more brown noise in the gameplay, ship sounds and everything. I was a little confused at the start about when the "round" starts, maybe add some effects besides the gem change or texts. Aside that, I  really would play this game on regular basis, it has potential. The theme with the candle, I get it, just the "slow" burn that I didn't quite catch that. Anyway, really good, congrats!

I loved the setting and the atmosphere, running out of light works great with a horror game. I managed to finish it after a while, although there were a lot of times where maybe the anomalies were a bit too subtle but I guess it's the point :p Also maybe you should consider adding some sort of fog in the upper area because sometimes I could see things spawning from afar, which defeated the point.

The game looks amazing and has a fun gameplay loop, congrats!

I am gonna be honest, I never had played this kind of game and i don't feel this is my kind of game... but this was quite fun

Although I was bad at spotting anomalies I managed to get some (even other than the obvious ones lol)

Though tbh the game doesn't feel all that scary, it feels quite cozy actually weirdly enough, but that is not exactly a bad thing. Maybe i just really like the night ambiance of the ship. 

But I gotta congratulate you on the graphics, those low poly models are gorgeous, and the candle light really sets a vibe.

yaarrrr captain, you better choose someone better at spotting anomalies next night

I was able to do it. After 40 minutes of playing, I completed the game and unlocked all the anomalies. I enjoyed the game. It didn't scare me at all. The only thing that scared me was the sound of lightning for the first time. Overall, the graphics and sounds are good, and the controls are responsive. I don't have any negative comments to share, and everything seems to be working well. It's a great game, and I wish you luck!

Nice game! This is probably the first time I actually got scared (and not just startled) from a jam game lol.

I really enjoyed this! I ended up surviving after a few tries :) Overall, I think the slow burn of the candle was smart, and it felt intuitive. Thanks for letting me play!

Thank you very much for playing my game. It makes me very happy to know you enjoyed it. 

How many anomalies where you able to find :3?

Again, thank you, means the world to me

I think I got like 20 by the time I survived, I think it's awesome that there are so many!
