You just made me crap my pants when I was caught and I was aware it was about to happen. 10/10 for audio, mood, overall. Looks sick :)

Holy shit I crappy my pants when the monster came after me. I must admit I didn't get past it though. I tried multiple approaches like sneaking by or trying to get it to the other person but it's always faster than me. One hint? ;)

Thanks for all the nice comments so far!

@derr: if you mean the very first monster, then your hint is "crate"!

The sounds, lightning and overall presentation gave a nice somber atmosphere, just had some trouble figuring out the mechanics and sometimes the characters would get stuck in corners.

Yeah, those bugs cropped up near the end and I didn't have time to fix them. Luckily it seemed to happen rarely enough when I was playing, but of course I probably didn't explore every possible player scenario as I knew the solution to every section, so maybe it happens more in reality.

Worked surprisingly well for such a hackish solution without true pathfinding made in such a short amount of time due to the time limit, tho. :p

Thanks!
