The story is interesting and set in a creative way, while being innovative in the use of (some?) logic with a puzzle and the vampire role in the story.\n\nIt is a bold choice to make graphics with only two colors (preparation for the two colors theme?), but given the theme and the execution, it turned out in a really cool graphics that both serves as eye candy in the game but also helps set the spooky mood. Also, what a fitting and nice soundtrack. Why are you guys not being rated in audio?\n\nAlso, i wouldnt expect such upbeat mood in a game involving vampires, but it turned out to beign quite humorous experience.\n\nExcellent job.\n\n![Sem t\u00edtulo.png](\/\/\/raw\/7f9\/21\/z\/23e87.png)\n\nThanks for making the game!","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"DavidPIxel","author_uid":1003040,"time":"2019-04-30T21:45:17Z","epoch":1556660717,"modified":1556660717,"text":"@derek-volker Wow! Thank you so much for the commentary Derek we are really glad to hear your feedback, this kind of player's messages its what really makes developing games worthy!\n\nRegarding the missing Audio category, well as far as we know (according to LD rules) if you haven't made yourself one of the categories of the game you should disable it to be rated, in this case most audio is from other creators(with a Creative Commons 0 license) and music is by Incompetech, his public music is usable in games if you give credit to him in the game description. Thats why we disabled the category for our game even though we worked in it so it could match with the rest of the game.
