Music did wonders for the mood. Simple concept, and pulled off well :D.
The first ghost actually made me jump out of my seat! Well done!
I would like it if things were zoomed in more so I could see if better though.
Great idea, great audio, and the simplistic graphics were a delight. Very good!
Graphics and audio is great! I didn't expect it, but got scared (heart racing even) everytime I had to escape a ghost! I'd like a bigger window to see a bit better however.
LOTS OF SCARES CRAMMED INTO THIS LITTLE BOX! I've heard that audio elsewhere before, though, so I can't rate you as highly on Audio and Mood. :(
I'll be passing this game around to my friends. Lots of fun!
Amazing!!! Minimalist and scary!! Sometime "Press any key" do nothing, I have to press and press...
C'mon, man. Jump scares? Too spooky.
This is a good minimalist concept though, also that raycasting is kewl.
I like the atmosphere, especially with the audio and the shadows :)
I like this a lot. Very simple, but executed very well. Good work.
Awesome game! And quite scary too, actually.
Graphics and sounds are great!
The audio and lightning makes everything perfect. Would really like to see something like this but bigger in the future.
Really like this, but I can only sensibly play it with my browser zoomed to the max!
pretty awesome! The second level is quite hard tough. I like the graphics. Bigger screen would be nice :)
:D:D!! Excellent! Love it. Excellent. Thou there are some rules regarding using music. As in "make your own" :].
Fantastic. My only gripe with this game is the small resolution.
Pretty well!
Despite minimalistic design, atmosphere is horrifying =)
To everyone that has played, voted and rated my game: Thanks a lot. It means a lot to me.
This was my first time I participated in ludum dare and it was a blast. Apparently I violated a rule by not creating the music by myself... will definitely do that the next time I participate!
I thought it was kind of cute actually. And those shadows look really good.
Great entry! Terrific sense of tension, sometimes compounded when I got momentarily stuck on a wall. I really like the balance of having light increase as time passes (allowing you to see more) with the fact that this will likely attract more ghosts, plus the crescendoing music on top of it all!
Amazing mood, It's incredible how scary it actually is even though it fits the theme. Really great work!
The audio is the star here. It really shows how easily a player can be put on edge. Nicely done!
Enjoyed the mood and audio a lot. Wish the screen was bigger?

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Nice work ! The music and graphics do wonders for setting the mood !
