Enjoyed it. Linux build works fine ;)
Thank you!
I really enjoyed the idea, I think it has a lot of potential and i do hope you keep working on it and adding more to the game
This was a very funny idea!
The 'fear meter', or whatever you'd call it, was a well-implemeted mechanic. It went down so fast that every time I was in a dark area I frantically moved to get out of it as quickly as possible. It very accurately simulated the feeling of being scared of the dark!
The music is very good, too. Simple, but fun and atmospheric.
Playing as a thief who's scared of the dark is a funny idea, and also adds an exciting extra edge to a stealth game. It would be good if this idea was expanded and turned into an even bigger game. I once played a stealth game about a thief that had similar pixelated graphics, called 'The Art of Stealth', so that sort of thing has happened!
This is a winner i can feel it
Super entertaining to watch :D Seems like you were playing the jam version (0.1) where the intro is still broken, but at least you found the light switch! Not everyone found it :) Thank you so much for playing, recording it and your feedback!
Awesome art style and super catchy music. The game loop is a bunch of fun and also noticed a few Easter eggs hidden in the levels, whats not to love.
Thank you <3 :)
Neat concept. Would love to see more.
