I loved the \"light\" gameplay mechanic, that's really clever and it fits the theme completelly. The level design and player feedback was awesome : I didn't read the instructions but instantly understood the concept, because the first monsters are in the light, but then some of them are in the shadows, with red eyes. That was really good game design.\n\nThe game have some little cons, like the lack of a health meter or the fact that the gun angle is limited, but overall, that was a good experience.
