it's the best game on this jam I played!!! Only bug I noticed is that player can stuck in the walls, but it's not such a trouble. (sorry for my mistakes, English is not my main language)
Nice execution of the light concept, though the platformer physics do feel a little too slow and floaty (but as mentioned in the other comments below, you do get used to it eventually).
Very clean and professional, smart and thoughtful level design, powerful use of visibility inhibition - stellar work all-around
I love this mechanic in my platformers! World/platform swapping is always fun to jump around in.
Level design is well done overall with no challenge leaving me feeling that it was unfair.
Movement felt a bit too slow or floaty at first, but after playing for a little bit it felt natural and worked well.
Light and dark are used in creative ways such as hiding platforms, dissolving platforms, changing the player's visibility, which contributed well to the theme of contrasting the two.
My only real complaint is that I wished the switch key was bound to something easier to press while I was holding right. It's not a big issue and is only a little uncomfortable.
Overall a fun experience and a decent platformer made within the time constraints.
You can actually use the left mouse button to switch the lights too, I'll put it in the description of the game so it's more obvious. Thanks for the feedback!
