Torch is a simple platformer that I've whipped up for LD#20. Use the arrow keys to move/jump. Avoid obstacles and make your way down to your girlfriend. I was cut a bit short so the game is missing a proper game win screen as well as sound effects/music. Hope you enjoy! =]

[edit] You must stay within the torch's light, even if you are not holding it. If you are in darkness, you will slowly go insane. Your meter will refill if you are in the light. Falling from high places will cause you to drop your torch. Monsters also make you drop your torch or take it from you.

Bugs:

-After you die, torch light in not always reset. Kill your self again to fix.

-The world camera does not stop at level boundaries, hence grey areas outside the map.

-Torch some times gets stuck in walls

-Occasional physics hiccups.

I will be doing a post-compo version that addresses these bugs as well as a soundtrack/music. =]
