Background:
You're a monster. you have been eating humans for decades but they rarely come into your cave anymore nowadays.
It is time to get out and feast again!
Unfortunately, your only source of light is an unmovable glowing crystal at the center of your cave. Still you can draw a map of your exploration when you are near it.
But be careful, you're not that intelligent, and you can't remember where all the walls (especially noncontiguous ones) you found were if you venture too long far from the light and update your map.
One last thing, visiting humans -preys- may have left potions in the dark. But what are their effects?

About the game:
Procedural generation of the cave and potions. Size of the cave and size of the tunnels inside the cave depend on difficulty.
You can only update and look at the map when you are near the light. No time limit, no health, no score. Just find the exit !
Insects/small animals are just for fun, no effects on the game (for now).
Made for possible submission to Horror Funhouse Jam 2017.

Instructions:
Arrows: move (cave) / scroll (map)
Z: drink potion (cave)
X: switch potions or check map (near light) or back to cave (map)

Update:

• new crappy artwork. I guess I should ask my 4 years old daughter to design the monster, it would sure be better,
• corrected typos,
• new map colors.

Find your way out of the cave !
