I played this game for about 10 minutes. My record was 63 meters.\n\nI really liked the sounds - they helped to create a great spooky atmosphere. \n\nI actually quite the game after I couldn't get the crank to work and kept dying at the first baddie painting. Then I saw on your description above that you can't crank and run. Maybe it'd be better if you always let the character turn the crank but it forces them to stop. Then you don't need to tell them with words, they'll just find out for themselves.\n\nWith the damaged floors, I feel like they need a \"tell\" of when they're going to collapse, I found it very hard to predict when to jump.\n\nGraphically, I really liked it - it's got quite a Grim Fandango vibe about it which was pretty cool. I didn't really get why the corridor was crumbling away behind me. I initially thought it was chasing me but I realised it stopped when I did.\n\nTheme-wise, you nailed it, and it was great to see something other than battery pickups as a recharge mechanic!\n\nWell done :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Reuh","author_uid":"1037491","time":"2017-08-17T14:07:30Z","epoch":1502978850,"modified":1502978850,"text":"Great atmosphere and graphics. The collapsing floors are a bit hard to notice and I often fell when I stopped on them to crank the lantern.\n\nStill, it was fun to play, fit really well with the theme, and the talking pictures in the tutorial were a nice touch.
