March 23, 1873. Day 231, the noise in my head is getting louder. Is it saying something, or am I just… Hearing things?

Blown away by the presentation here, beautiful artstyle, engrossing story, and an incredible atmosphere. The moment it clicked with me exactly how this fit into the theme, I was immediately ready to give it a 5/5 there. If you've put out any full-length games like this I would absolutely love to see them!

I like the atphosphere you have created with the sounds. I didn't finish the game. I think you should write something to explain that is about.. but maybe I played it because was so cryptic. good job.

Hey, really impressed by length of this. Crazy that you made it for a jam. The mood in this game is perfect. The story is funny, dramatic and creepy at the same time. The graphic style and sound design is also really good. Great job!

This is such an interesting story, I got so invested in it! You achieved such a strong mood with the sounds, art (I love the art!) and story... Awesome!

Congrats, you managed to use pixel art to really replicate the tone of the movie! Looks great! I think this is the first adaptation of a film I've seen for LD jam too. No easy task but I think you do it justice.

I have watched The Lighthouse a few days ago and then stumbled upon this game. funny coincidence. Please make full length narrative games. You have the artistic vision and I would love to see what more you have to offer. One simple feedback? The game needed more lighthouse noises to make it even more intense. Overall it was a really great experience thank you for this !
