Wow, that was genuinely tense, especially with the shrinking light source... Gaphics could use some work, as well as packaging (I personally prefer a .zip over a RAR).

Way too tense. If you're going to let me see half a block around me, you can't get me stuck in a corridor 10 blocks long that doesn't go anywhere with Gru right on my ass. But solid maze game. Well done.

the floating text box in the middle of the dark is creepy :) With some torches to extends your view for an instant, or just standing there once you have light them, it would be perfect. Or maybe some other random options like map to show the exit point or crucifix to freeze the Grue...
Nice entry and good mood mark despite few graphics effects.

Seemed a bit unfair and repetitive to find the exit, but otherwise very nice and oddly scary game.

That thing haunts my dreams now. I could never escape. :(
This could definitely benefit from some extra additions... but it IS super tense.

Tense with the noise sound effect!

When it first loaded I thought it was rouge-like but then it started homing in on me before I could even find the movement keys.

I loved the way the fluctuating light varied the tension level.

The text bubble is a nice touch, but sometimes it gets on the way and I can't see where to move. As others have said, the game is tense, although I bit repetitive for me. Nevertheless, well done.

Couldn't finish. The level design doesn't really work well with a thing that can walk through walls, and the tiny amount of light you get sometimes makes it an absolute guessing game.

Pretty cool, good scary atmosphere with the shrinking light. I couldn't really tell what made the light shrink, I thought it was some game mechanic that I didn't understand but I think it's just random. I wish there were more to the game.

I tried going down deeper, made it to level 11 and nothing happened... I was hoping for an alternate ending or something.

Good job!
