Two adventurers venture into an ancient tomb in a search for treasure. With nothing but their lamplight guiding them they enter in. But not all is as it seems. The lights of former adventurers guide them but the tomb reconfigures itself over and over. Can you escape alive?
There are 15 "levels" in total and 2 endings.
Controls: Arrow Keys for Movement X - Cutscene Advancement and Searching/Opening Doors Z/Up Arrow - Jump R - Resets Current Level
Keeping the light going and guiding you through the level that way was a good touch. I eventually hit a place where I had a hard time jumping over some spikes. Until I got to that point I was eager to see what was ahead! Well done! :)
Good level design and a great atmosphere. The lighting mechanic made you move at a certain pace which keeps you on enough of an edge to keep interested. There were a few bad levels, particularly levels with pots that can get stuck in corners but otherwise great game.
Cool game, I loved the music because in reminds me Heretic & Co :) The gameplay is cool but really frustrating when the crocks get stuck in the wall ! You should add a simple feature : when X is pressed, if you are in front of a crock, it will follow your move, so you can push it and pull it. I was dead so many time that I didn't see the end. However, I liked the ideas of Level Design, and there is a good atmosphere too ! It's a long game, well done for the time we had ! Concerning the Theme, it does not really follow it, since there is multiple "screens" in the same level.
This game is kind of deep... And it's surprising. And it's fun. Made me think a little, but I may be reading too much into it. Great work! Great idea! Great analogy!
Great atmosphere, Love the level design, Controls are great, although i wish you had included WASD movement i usually dislike using the arrow keys, but i enjoyed it in this game. I died alot!
This was very enjoyable! :) I really liked the art, the mechanics of the switching rooms and keeping my lantern lit as I traveled through the levels. The platforming was fairly comfortable, and it had some of the better-feeling controls I've experienced so far.
Once I figured out what was going on with the light, I really enjoyed the tension it created trying to get to the next spot, but still having to be fearful of walking into a trap. I wish the light thing was a little more integrated mechanics-wise with what was going on in the rest of the game, but I definitely think it achieved that creepy-dangerous tomb feeling you were going for. Sometimes I would get a key and not realize it since it picks up on collision. it would be nice to show the key for a moment before it goes into your inventory if possible. Nice work!
