A candle is trapped in a dark dungeon. He must burn himself to illuminate the nearby environment and find the way out. But the candle light can only last 10 seconds, use it wisely!
=====================
* GAME CONTROL * - ASDW / Arrow keys to move - Space to jump - Hold left mouse button to burn the candle
================ All models and textures are made in 48 hours with Blender and Photoshop. Music and GUI sound effects created on inudge.net and recorded by Audacity. Fire & ghost sound effects are from OpenGameArt.
What can I say, this is nearly perfect. The graphics are very aesthetically pleasing. The game managed to keep me playing despite its boring and slow nature. The only thing I could say is that the camera was a little annoying when walking back with S since it turns automatically.
Loved the game, fun concept and tight gameplay. Only thing I could see that might need to be changed is that I was able to flicker the light by rapidly clicking the mouse and it didn't use hardly any time. Maybe have a min time the light stays on to keep people like me from flickering my way to victory
Nice work, a decent challenge, I like that if you burn up your time, you still have a chance if you can make it in the dark D Good job on the graphics!
Very nice entry, very polished, but a bit easy if you just keep "flashing" your light on and off... Still, I think for the compo it's against the rules to use sound effects from OpenGameArt and similar sites, you are supposed to do them yourself... but that's the only bad thing i have to say about this. ;)
@Martin_Monosys Thanks for your comment, I'll remove the sound effects from the compo version ;)

Hmmm, yeah it's a shame really, but those are the rules. As I try to keep them, I always point it out when I think something is wrong... This was a minor offense, tough... And no need to thank me for getting you into trouble... XD!

I liked the sounds.
Very nice game
Good job on the graphics!
Levels are nice. As you wrote in your P.M. it's a pity you couldn't design more of them.

Here is a run where I finish the game :
