I am a part of Gingerloaf's team (as abon.art) and agree with him.
If I ignore the message in game about depression, I think this is a great game about a child defeating the monsters under his bed with his mighty flashlight.
As I play feel overrun by sadness and anger. Defeating enemies with a flashlight felt weird as my happiness meter went up while I didn't feel any progression of getting better.
Spreading awareness of depression is a great thing however as someone who has gone through depression and has come out the other end, this game doesn't spread that message well if at all. If I didn't have sound on I would have assumed I was killing monsters under my bed.
