Coffin by mattrified

made by mattrified for LD29 (COMPO)

You're buried alive for crimes involving magic. Now, buried under sacred ground, madness is slowly climbing its way into your coffin to get you. Can you defend yourself with the magic that has caused your insanity?

(Only need the mouse and left click. When you get past the initial phase, hold-left click to change color and shoot magic. Sorry for the red, blue, green use; I know it's not the most color-blind friendly)

Only played through once, that intro's a bit intensive for my peasant machine.

Oooh wow, that is one Creepy Pasta you have there. Too close to bedtime to play that one any more. Awesome job with the graphics and sound!

Interesting idea, and creepy. That guy after the hands is tough, didn't manage to beat him, if it's possible.

Great implementation of theme! Definitely feels claustrophobic. I love the intro rocks being thrown down.

creepy! The clicking certainly made it more distressing, especially at the end.

Wow. This is far from the best game I've played this LD but it's definitely one of the more interesting ones. I think if you worked on it some more it could be really fun. The mechanics were a bit uninteresting, but challenging, and the atmosphere was obv. great.
One question, is it unwinnable?

Very impressive graphics, and great mood, I liked the intro a lot.
I only played through once, is there a way to actually win?

I really liked your game. The intro kind of makes you feel helpless, and once you're in that complete darkness you're left wondering what's about to come at you... Very creepy. Well done. :)

The intro really transports the feeling of burried alive. The "hands"-part may be a little slower in my opinion.

I am not sure if I played through but found it relieving to be "dead" at the end...

To everyone, you can win. Don't click. Just hold the left-mouse. Here's a video of me completing it if you don't believe me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKYhRjJh7tE Thanks for playing, :)

Reminded me of House of the Dead in more ways than one. Nice entry!

Great mood and theme. Very creepy. The madness head twitch is disturbing. Knowing your health and that of the madness would be a nice addition.
