Keep the light alive by AltTabber
The first attempt to participate in Ludum Dare. Small horror game with simple mechanics. But with very suspense gameplay

The goal of the game is to get out of this place. Do it.

some notes:
- light effect was good. decent suspense
- could have used scarier visuals/audio when you lose
- cool art
- with a maze game smoother collisions would really help. annoying that walking diagonally into a wall doesnt let you slide
The placement of items were enough to give me hope to find the exit. The music was also well set as the lack of it in the beginning with the exception of sound effects granted some anxious anticipation. The light effect was really cool and items like the flare were also really great for variety. Finally the Art is pretty nice on gray scale and it was cool to see quarter views of the character(when you hold down up arrow and left for example).
Good stuff!
Pretty easy, but fun to play. Great atmosphere: I got spooked when the creepy music started and I realized that I was being chased by a ghoul! The level design was really solid for a maze game. You placed a good number of items, and I thought the "compass" and "flare" items were particularly nice. Often I complain that maze games feel a little too luck based, but the compass gave me an idea of what direction to head, and the flares stopped me from missing things that would have been frustrating to miss (such as the key).
