Missing requirements.txt
Had trouble playing the game more than a few seconds.

Congratulations to have built something in a week!

I tried like 10 times and died 10 times. I could not figure out where to run to save me. There also no indication how far away the monster is.

I read the README, but actually I am still not sure how to play this game. I click the toggle lights and nothing happens. I press button and I think it opens the door. Then I also press q and e to open and close the windows. And then I will die suddenly and it is so scary.

Then I try again because I have to escape the facility, so this time, I leave and go out the door, and immediately I understand that there is no turning back, and the reason is this: I can not turn my head backwards or to the side. Like a crab, because I am so scared, I can only walk straight ahead, backwards, or sideways. I turn on the flashlight and then I hear this spider sound and then I am dead.

In short, I think this game is so scary, however the lack of guidance makes me so confused, yet one may argue that this is what is the true gaming experience.

Encountered error:

I didn't understand when the spiders were supposed to pop up, or how to avoid them.

Looks cool, but I couldn't survive for too long.

The game works, but there is very little guidance as to what to do and I was a bit confused. Going away from the post seemed to result in instant game over, and staying at the post didn't seem to do anything?

Game had a low framerate but the game was really scary, i scare easily and that jumpscare, from a spider i think, scared the living days out of me and i daren't play it again but the atmosphere was scary and the graphics looked amazing so definitely a good game.

Very good game! It was super laggy for me (6 fps) but from what all I could play it was a super cool game!

Spooky! Not quite sure if surviving the night is possible at all cause that dang monster gets me every time!

first of all, I really like the exposition at the start of the game, and the ambience during it. that ambience is almost immediately broken by a somewhat mild jumpscare, and it doesn't ever really become clear what the goal/gameplay of the game is. you can delay the inevitable using the blinders, but other than that, there isn't really much.
