CTS by Ping78
It's my first ludum dare and I couldn't stay for all 48 hours :( (I had about 10 hours)
But I made a game any way.
Controls: WASD, Space to jump and mouse right or left button.

But this game isn't bad.
I could manage to escape safe
I'm not a 3D modeling specialist but those tunnels looked a little complex to be made and coded in so little time and i'm not even talking about the lighting and the torch.
About the gameplay as a whole, I'll have to quote @hexabeast "The spiders are easy to escape, just run forward", ironically I was the polar opposite, because of this long-time bug-hate of mine I prioritized purging those little monsters, what was kinda frustrating, because no matter how I spammed the mouse buttons and tried to kept a distance, I always got some damage, but not little damage, I finished the game with about half of my HP, I don't know if that's supposed to be normal for an such short experience (Understand that I'm not criticizing, I'm just pointing out that in the little "fight or flight" choice in your game, "fighting" tends to be disadvantageous, which is ironic, considering the size of your enemies).
Oh, and somehow I managed to get lost in your little cave, normally you could see that as a design fail, but I would say the complete opposite, getting lost in a game like yours contributes with the feeling of claustrophobia and added some fine difficulty aside from those hell bugs.
Anyway, congratulations for participating. I'm very curious to know what would you do if you'd worked the full time. Hope you participate the next LD so we find out.
P.S.: for what CTS stands out?
The name CTS stands for Cave Tourch Spiders nothing special, but it sounds nice.
It's sad that I didn't had time and forgot to add mouse sencitivity.
There is no challenge for the player however. I could just run through the cave without engaging the spiders.
