Interesting game :). I enjoyed the atmosphere and how you used controlling light as a core gameplay mechanic!

Submitted

The concept is pretty good, and graphics are pretty good, but im not a fan of the whole "click to move" control scheme. I wish you can use WASD instead. I found the whole controlling your light thing to be pretty cool, great job on this!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, we will use this to improve it even further.

Cool idea.

Good to know someone liked it!!

This is undoubtedly a novel idea with a very intriguing notion. The lighting really captures the mood you were going for, so well done for running with the idea. Game design that is simple but effective.

Developer

Thanks a lot! We have planned a few other features but had to scrap them during the playtest. 

Submitted

this game evokes a very unique feeling. It feels super chill but it also feels eerie without being disturbing or horrifying or whatever. Very unique

Thank you, that is indeed what we aimed for!

Thank you, Hallos!

Really nice mood, I like the simple game mechanic. Only improvement is to make camera movement a bit smoother, currently it's too stiff for my liking :) 

Developer(+1)

We will patch a camera update once the jam restriction is over. 

Submitted

I can't tell if there's any post processing but those particles look absolutely amazing :O

Developer

We had to scrap the post-processing a few hours before submission coz we could not tune the color scheme, but it would have been even better-looking with it! Thanks!

Submitted

Enjoyed it! The game system incorporating light is not only fun but fantastic.

I really liked the idea, it's really creative, i like the simple art style and the dark vibes, good job !

Very interesting concept, certainly something that hasn't been done before! Way to take the theme and run with it, the lighting is very evocative of the atmosphere you intended with this. Simple but effective game design.

Submitted

had fun playing the game... second level was a bit glitchy but i still had fun...awesome game

Developer

Could you please elaborate on "glitchy"?

Submitted

there was like an old VCR glitchy strip across the screen... but it was at the top of the screen so it did not disrupt a gameplay that much

Developer

Thank you, we'll look into it!

Submitted

5/5 the level of glow is just perfect

Submitted

I loved the mechanics of collecting good souls as a light in the dark

Developer

Thank you so much! We took on a simple idea and tried to implement it within time. 

Submitted(+1)

Original and great concept

Developer

Well, we had a lot of fun making it! It's good to know that you liked our interpretation! 

Submitted

Unique take on the theme and I like the brightness mechanic! -Dustin

Developer

Thank you so much! We tried to implement a few other mechanisms but ran out of time. 

Submitted

Sweet game! The evil spirits are surprisingly menacing for what they are.

Developer

Good thing that the little wisp is brave enough to venture through it!!  
Any suggestions/recommendations for future improvement? 

Submitted(+1)

It would be nice to separate character movement and camera movement, there were times (especially around the enemies) where I felt the camera holding me back.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!  We will try to fix that with our next update. Thank you so much!
