I like that the traps stay there, when you go over them. There are maybe too many of them or I am just bad, because I was walking to the traps I already explored all the time :D.

I like how the combat contrasts the game - how you plan your moves, but then in combat you just spam LMB.
Good job!

I really like the graphics in this game. It was very hard though and even though I was dodging the orks were still damaging me. Was I not doing it correctly? Well done for finishing!

Hey! I like the core idea (graphics are nice too), but the controls did get in my way of navigating between the traps. I was killed numerous times very early by two spike traps that only had one safe tile in between them. When I tried to click between them, my guy always ran in the bottom trap, which was annoying. I would have preferred keyboard controls or a more responsive mouse movement.

I couldn't get very far but i guess that the try-and-error-nature of the game might turn many people off. A little health bar would've been nice :)

I like the level design and the mood. light and shadow created a nice level

The graphics and music are very good it puts the player in the mood. But as other people said the character is a bit hard to control. I wonder if other people experienced the game as I did but everytime I move, the game slows down dramatically. My only guess would be that you have some sort of postprocessing like motion blur and my computer can't deal with it in browser.
But apart from that the game is good (and quite hard), good job!

The mood of your game is great! I also liked that you can literally buy things with your past lives.

I didn't understand the mechanic with the spell thang :(

Nice music and very good graphics. The traps and animations look very good with that lighting.

Love the mood and music. Especially the combat stuff. Really good "feeling" game. I did not like the floor traps. Getting killed for no reason happens a lot it seems. Oh and the lighting is fantastic!

I really like the graphics in this - really adds to a spooky experience. The game is sooo hard, I didn't get barely anywhere, also not sure what to do when fighting the orc, presumably just frantically smash the left click?

Controls are hard, and traps are difficult to evade. A lower difficulty curve would be nice.
