This game is pretty good. Simple yet effective. The fans could get real loud sometimes so prepare your ears. The creators did a great job of working with the theme. Good job!

Very neat idea and spin on the theme, adding more mechanics and audio/soundtracks would definitely make the game more replayable! Great work. Well polished, great work!

I liked this little game. At times I felt the "warning" sound didn't play enough to let you know something bad was happening. The kill animation felt like a brutal twist to what otherwise was a tame art style.

Great idea. Love that you can continue from where you die. Would love to be able to press SHIFT to run.

Simple and unique game! Only feedback i have is the player is that movement is too slow. Would also be great to have like an indicator of your progress.

Love the concept and the execution! The graphics, audio, everything was on point. It was perhaps too easy because i didn't need to actually see the assailant i can just listen for the audio queue, maybe turn off that prompt for a hardmode :P Great work tho!

Really great concept!
Seems like with a few more mechanics this could be built into something really solid.
