It is interesting the illumination effect, but is boring to await when you don't see anything. Can be interesting if you are persecuted with 0 illumination to force being more risky. I unlock both endings.

Thank you! I planned a chase for that but ultimately decided against it.

Good fun, and I like that you took a different approach to the theme of darkness. A lot of people, myself included, used the spotlight effect. I like that this was different, and it seemed to get progressively more difficult. The black-outs were a pain, in a good way. As you can see from the screenshot I tried this in Linux (Xubuntu 22.04) and it worked great. I appreciate the extra effort to do versions for Windows, Linux, and HTML. My only question is, was this the end? (I just want to make sure as after this I just went back to the start). Oh, and I appreciated that when I died, it didn't put me all the way back at the beginning.

Hey, thank you for test the linux version :)

This is the bad ending. There is another (good) ending if you find a secret way (in the cave).

I appreciate your comment and I'm glad you like it.

Me ha encantado el ambiente que le ha dado el creador, la verdad que lo he disfrutado bastante y me he quedado con ganas de más. Muy top.

Gracias!

Muy bueno! Me encanta el estilo 8 bits y la ambientación. Para ser un juego de una Jam, bastante entretenido y original. 

Gracias!

nice short

Thank you!
