I was a bit surprised that there was more than one choice in this one. It was nice because, for such a brief experience, I liked having the option. The endings were particularly unsettling to me, and very different from how they could’ve ended, which was nice. Artsy-style endings rather than cliched end screens are always welcome. Short and sweet.
I liked the start, everything was calm and nothing happened. I liked the simple tasks that I had to do like fixing the horn, going to sleep and such. The idea that someone else was in the lighthouse was unsettling which was really nice. But I did expect more "horror". It was not really scary. Also that one "jumpscare" in that underground made me give less stars because it's really unneccesary and the animation looks goofy :/
Cool ideas but could've been way better. Keep it coming, though!
I haven’t played the game yet, but i plan on doing so and i bet i will like it C: also, how do you put such positive reply’s- like wow- have a good day if your reading this! :]
Thanks! Whenever I get people trying to bring me down for making a game they didn't like, I try not to be too rude to them, I'll either just be really passive-aggressive or I just give them some subtle sarcasm or something
wow what can I say this was awful. Just short dumb and a waste of time nothing good here at all. I hope not all your games are this bad because I would rethink what I doing with my life if they are.
Thanks for the feedback! Though, I don't see where you're coming from with the "I would rethink what I doing with my life" thing. This is just a hobby of mine, everyone has their own hobbies y'know? My hobby is making short ps1-styled games, and your hobby is being angry at small indie game developers! I appreciate you taking time out of your day to write a lovely comment about my game, and I hope these issues are resolved in my next project, have a nice day bud 👍
thanks for the feedback, and yeah the game's way too short, I was more trying to test what I can do with the atmosphere of a Lighthouse island setting, but I appreciate the criticism and will try to fix these issues in my next project.
This game was pretty interesting. I liked the jumpscare and I liked the atmosphere a lot. I REALLY liked the pixelated style. I don't know exactly what was going on but I honestly liked that too. Good game for sure :) I made a video if anyone is interested:
Incidentally, I find it fascinating how many indies on itch do cool stuff with the horror genre in particular, it seems to be most of what is on the itch.io platform. I am not sure why, exactly, but maybe horror is a good category for indie devs just like it is for indie filmmakers?
The atmosphere and pixelated art-style was great! The game was overall very scary, and I loved that I was faced with the option to just leave!
I do however think I encountered a bug, as I was caught without him even being near me. And I would like for the camera to automatically focus down the dark hallway when the cutscene begins, as I was left watching the ground haha.
Thanks for making this game Such_Nick! I enjoyed the graphics and the sounds, although for a horror game it didn´t scare me or had any effect whatsoever regarding that. I didn´t feel the ambiance and the spooks with this one. I do believe that being alone in an lighthouse is a great idea for a horror game, polish it and you could have an amazing horror game full of jumspcares.

4/10 = 2 stars :)
Is it normal for me to keep on dying at the time where I reach the blood and bones underground?
Why'd ya spill yer beans?
So great! I loved both endings of the game! The little poster to The Lighthouse was awesome! Great game!
Love it!!! The spooks got me XD
A fun, short game with some spooky bits. One of the endings was confusing but I had fun!
this was a great game, with quick pacing and multiple endeings. this worked really well I deffinatly recommend this game

Awesome game! I hope there will be more to it at some point. I loved the guy telling me my partner wasnt coming! lol! Great job dev!
Good game I rate this is as 3/5 stars (minimum)
This is a list of thoughts of your game:
The Good Side:
The Bad Side:
I would recommend this only for short games
thanks for the feedback, and yeah the game's way too short, I was more trying to test what I can do with the atmosphere of a Lighthouse island setting, but I appreciate the criticism and will try to fix these issues in my next project.
Oh your welcome I'm glad that you look through my review and I didn't know this was somewhat of a test for future projects.
i can't play it don't let me :(
Are you using windows or mac? I unfortunately haven't been able to port to mac yet but I'll try my best to do so
This game was pretty interesting. I liked the jumpscare and I liked the atmosphere a lot. I REALLY liked the pixelated style. I don't know exactly what was going on but I honestly liked that too. Good game for sure :) I made a video if anyone is interested:

REALLY GREAT
Short but a good concept.
Keep at it.

Indie devs also don't have big companies making us pay for skins which is dope.
Nice art work
Big explosion!
I really Liked the game!

But great work! Keep it up!

Nice game, a bit to short to understand the story.
Really nice little game! Keep up the good work!:)

Too short to build suspense but I liked the mechanics with the foghorn valve and the sounds are well chosen.
Cool game. I like the whole lighthouse theme for some reason. Game #1
played it in this video! around 6 mins in.
