made by DouglasOliveira for LD35 (JAM)

Unfortunatly you have a curse.
The night is going to make you go insane unless you manage to keep the fire burning.
Good luck and good night.

haha nice use of the theme, but it's very difficult to stay sane, but that maybe is something good, because turning into the monster was nice :D

Good atmosphere. Pretty hard to win...if you can win?

I loved the music and FX, good job! I feel is very hard to reach the 6 hours. . . but is a very artistic game.

Hey! Interesting idea. However, is there a way to keep the lights on for more time? They seem to vanish spontaneously after some time, even without monsters touching them?

Also, our game entries have some cool similarities: if you are interested, you can check WolfBit at

Our team would love to hear your thoughts on it.

Awesome game! It's pretty reminiscent of don't starve (in the concept and the art style), but it's still very cool and unique.

Nice take on the theme! It was cool how shapeshifting made the player more powerful.

I like music and atmosphere.
The fire goes out too fast. )

Really nice atmosphere. Feels a bit like you've been influenced by Don't Starve. Loved the mood!

Nice music and mood. The keybindings make it frustrating to play on non-QWERTY keyboard layouts though.

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)

Thank you guys! =D
It was really hard in the first version, but we made it a little easier now. @Reallysketchy: yes, it was really influenced by Don't Starve =p.
@Freank, we'll be happy to see our ldjam entry on your video! (and thanks, added #ldjam on the description as you suggested!)
