In what way does your game fit the theme?
More pixies you have, more light they emit. With more light, it is easier to avoid obstacles in the dark.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code myself, with some googling of course. All assets aside of music were made by me.

Amazing game, the art is great and the gameplay is even better!

Oh, my word this game is soo cool. It fits the theme so well. The music is amazing and it fit so well (did you make the song, if not, what's it called so I can maybe try putting it in my game XD) After hitting a wall and having one pix left, you feel that dead, knowing that there's a wall coming. You don't know when or where, but you know you won't be able to move out of the way to save yourself. It's at this moment that you notice, your savior. Another pix has come down from the heavens to help you light your way. As you collect the new pix and start dodging walls together, you realize, you truly are stronger together. This is immediately followed by crashing into a wall on the right while trying to avoid the one directly ahead. 

Also, LIGHTS!!! I didn't really make any games using lights other than my game from this jam, but I like them soo much now :D

If there was one bit of feedback I would give it would be to try and increase the energy of the center light (not necessarily to see more, but rather to see the pix's better) but I really like how it is now, so I'm not completely sure.

Thank you for your very nice words. Music is Scott Buckley - Snowfall (https://youtu.be/htAlfvjQrQU). 

Also I want to ask you, how much score did you get the most? Most of my time doing this game was pretty much balancing so I would like to know if I balanced it correctly.

I got the blue orb unlocked, that's about it.

Very Simple Idea, well execute. Good job

Interesting idea. But an endless runner might not be it. Maybe platformer? Otherwise, great effort. Nice work! :)

With that music, core mechanic and visual style this could be a wonderful story-driven experience. What happened? Why is this an infinite runner with unlockable cosmetics??? So much lost potential.

Thank you so much for your feedback. Although I thought I could do more with the game, I didn't find any inspiration and unfortunately I didn't find the energy to continue with it. But maybe I'll come back to this mechanic sometime and expand on it.

Nice Game! The game is nice and simple! I feel like it could of use a few more sound effects, and I noticed the music was also a bit loud. Otherwise like I said, nice game!

Congrats on finishing the jam, this is pretty impressive making everything from scratch in a week! You definitely have a lot of potential for a long term project!

But at least, when I'm testing it after a short while the game closes

Would  greatly appreciate a review on mine ;)
