Nice job! Would have been nice to get a few more mechanics into the game :)

Thanks for playing the game :) And happy you liked it. Trying to learn a better way to generate more levels, so that more time can be spent on adding for example bonuses :)

Cool idea, wish it was longer and had more variations.

Windows link was a broken link for me. Dropbox 5xx error.

@kratorspore If you have time please try again. I just tried it with successful result.

Aw man, is there any way you can include love2d in the download?

I agree with the others, more levels would be good. But as is, still a good game!

Cool concept. I like the music you were able to generate with cfxr, I gave up trying to make a background loop for mine with it!
apaneskeauthor29 Aug 2013, 17:26
@Jason, the music was made with autotracker which just spits out music. Generate music until you find something you like.

Nice game, finished it! Some traps or portals would have been nice.

OMG best game so far! The concept is awesome, and music is really nice for ears! GOOD JOB!

Nice work. One thing I would consider is adding some degree of punishment. The flashlight only having ten seconds of battery isn't too bad since you can just grope your way around the world to win. If there were things that had to be avoided (pits, etc.), that'd make the battery life more precious.

Nice game, a bit too simplistic and the fact that the battery does not reset at each level makes it hard to use.
apaneskeauthor31 Aug 2013, 19:31
@Latcarf, there are two difficulty levels. When you play on easy you get at full battery for each level.

Controls are okay, but it should allow me to move when I'm touching the walls. This would make it easier to get through tiny wall openings.
It's good that the game continues when your battery runs out, but there should be some sort of checkpoint where you can go back to there with a full charged battery.
I was playing in Normal Level.

An appealing recreational game. I appreciated that the 10 seconds were mine to use up, but would have enjoyed a bit of a "celebration" when I reached the exit on each level.
