SWEVEN
Story

Confused and disoriented, you must find a way out before anything bad happens.

Great! The presentation is very professional and great lighting effects achieved within the limitations! Love the death screen especially.
I like the idea, and the code system for recording progress is very smart. The intro takes a long time and re-loading from a death takes a while and it felt a little too random, like I didn't have enough options for avoiding the monsters.
Thanks for the review and the feedback! I'll take it into account for the next game jam :)
Super cool! I felt a bit like I was playing Pacman as I was keeping an eye on the edge of the flashlight and trying to find the batteries.
Great use of dithering for the flashlight!
Thanks for the review! Glad you loved the flashlight mechanic and the dithering :D
