Very effective and atmospheric presentation. The sound of the horns blaring into the night is just haunting. Nice work!

I've tried downloading twice but all i get is a black screen, So i haven't rated. Looks really cool though.

I like the art and audio. Really ties the mood together! The jumping controls could have used a little more work though. They feel a bit off, especially the way you drop when you let go of the button.

Great atmosphere! The platform mechanics were a bit stiff in my opinion. But I really liked the graphics and sounds. Good job!

Very nice mood, to bad i got stuck where i can chose the three symbols, but then no matter what i took i die in some way or another.

Would have loved to reach the end.

Good atmosphere and graphics, but I found the "weapon" a bit too weird... Also suspect I ran into some bugs at the end though so couldn't see the end...

The darkness chasing me also seemed at odds with wanting to read characters' text at times, it may be nicer if there was a bit more separation between story bits and action bits.

Much more content than my entry though, so A for effort!

The graphics are nice, all they lack is that the ground should have been made black down to the bottom of the screen, it feels less polished as it is.

The gameplay could have been fun if only I knew what I was doing! Sorry but I didn't get what the interactions did, nor how to pass by the monsters without getting eaten. I tried both the Web and Windows versions to see if it was some bug but apparently I'm just not getting it!

Died after making the decision and after that I couldn't get past this part: http://i.imgur.com/7mSwkJz.png

I also didn't quite understand the enemy mechanic; just let them hit you three times and be done with it? Couldn't seem to avoid them. If that's so the part with 12 dogs was quite tedious, since it took a lot of backtracking to the health globe...

The "You must make a choise" part was also frustrating, since the run to the disappearing platformer part (which took me nearly ten tries) was long and boring.

Also pretty annoying that you're supposed to read the text but there's something chasing you so there really isn't time for it.

Nice atmosphere, but the gameplay is mediocre at best.
