Reviews for "In The Dark Place"
Good time waist and interesting concept. I enjoyed it and for something that didn't cost me a dime what more could I ask.

Achei a mecânica do jogo muito estranha... Você dá um salto duplo vendo que não consegue alcançar o lugar e mesmo assim alcança?
O jogo em si não é ruim, você está no caminho certo...
Na minha opinião você deveria melhor a mecânica e consequentemente a jogabilidade dele, pois o personagem parece um tanto quanto "duro", "engessado".
No mais tudo Ok!
It's a nice game, it works fine, but I found a few problems with it.
To begin with, the movement speed alone is enough to bore players into not wanting to progress to later levels. This is also the same for the hit speed, as the animation resets each time, making combat more of a chore than satisfying.
I find the jumping mechanic to be awkward at times, as executing a well timed double jump is incredibly difficult, and it leaves players struggling to adapt to the mechanic you've put into the game, when they've been conditioned over many years to jump again at the top of the first jump, not as they're ascending already in preparation for the second jump.
The upgrades were nice, but I don't think there was enough, as with so few upgrades, and even with max health and attack, enemies still feel like a mindless slog fest of back and forths, hoping you survive long enough to heal after.
I also thought that the sound could have used more variation, as while a drone is certainly spooky, it's rather dull and doesn't carry much weight to it.
There's also a major bug in which if you decide to "gut" or "search" whilst falling or in the middle of a jump and you manage to catch an enemy at the same time, the animation never stops. You're forced to suicide to get back into the game, but the character never actually leaves the screen, they remain there, repeating the action over everything else indefinitely until you reload the game.
Either way, I did enjoy playing this, and I hope you use your experience making this game to help you in making future games too!
