Art, audio, concept and implementation really well done, but it was very hard, both the game and to understand the game. I would have added some narrative or indication to understand what was going on, but well done! Oh also tick the fullscreen checkbox in the itch page settings.

Death is so saddle.  I cant' get more than two hearts in a run.

Loved the art and the concept! It felt a bit clunky getting stuck on walls especially with the small lights.

Love the concept!

I had no idea how to play the game at all, and trying to navigate through the maze was very finnicky. Maybe a tutorial would help? And maybe your light should grow with each heart you collect, I was having trouble seeing. And Itch lets you add a fullscreen button to the game? It would be nice to add that too.

Developer

This makes a lot of sense, you are supposed to bring the hearts to the spawn point and basically explore the cave but it’s not stated in the game, thank you for the feedback, really useful🙏

I was a bit lost at the beginning but except from the high (imo) number of hearts most elements of the game are nice. Also i found the game genuinely scary. Well done!

The game has low readability, parts of the floor end up being walls that block movement for example. 
Interesting concept, I feel like there should be a bigger emphasis on Count Down however

Developer

Yup I see what you mean, thank you for the feedback, very helpful!!
