Love the graphics and mood. I hate horror games though, so I didn't play much! :p Encountered a bug after finishing and restarting where the trumpet song at the end kept playing after I restarted.

I really like your graphics and the atmosphere of the game! I found a bug - the quit button doesn't work. Good job for only two days :)

That was a funny little game. The gameover music doesnt stop playing though so if you try and replay it it does change the mood a bit.

uuuh creepy :) nice atmosphere! The graphics and the sound also were great.

I got "Good Ending" and then I tried again, but ending music was still playing (so game lost a bit of its mood). Does game have any other endings? Also, if music isn't yours, are you allowed to enter Compo?

Great graphics! I loved the oppressive atmosphere and the ending :fearful:

I had the same bug as LuckyFeathers where the "Winning song" kept playing after restart.

Wow, what a great game, I loved the art, looks like it is "free handing drawing", beautiful, the sounds are perfect ominous and creep, just what the game needs, the game is short but is really well made, I loved !

Beautiful art! And great ambience! I got really scared the first time I died! Altough the gameplay is simple, it makes a good point of making the topic go through.

I wish there would have been some more exploration involved (more rooms)! Overall very nice work!

Keep up the good work!

I really liked it! The graphics look awesome! The story needs a little bit more work, and at the end of the game some of the text is covered by darkness. It is a little short, but the art is so good, I can see why it would take so long!

Overall, I really liked it! Well done!

Ha! Short and sweet. I like it. I really like the graphics especially of the bad guy(s). It's kind of abstract and child-like which really fits with the overall aesthetic of the game.

"Hey, who turned out the light?" I enjoyed that. The jump scares with the monsters reminded me of late-seventies Dr Who. Your game is really creepy and effective.

Cool mood here, good choice of music, it plays a great role here.
Really nice how you managed to create a scary setup with cartoonish graphics (which are good, by the way, although we don't see them a lot of time due to the darkness!).
Too bad the game's a bit too short ; I would have enjoyed some kind of mix between a point-and-click and a survival horror game!
