Great job making something so polished in such a short time - I definitely think it has the potential for you to build up the mechanic in interesting ways if you were to add more levels.

Excellent job on producing that feels so complete. From a balance perspective I thought the torch could have been brighter - I didn't feel like I got much value from shining it, and the levels were small enough it was easier to stumble around in the dark!

Thank you for the feedback! :)

Very polished and complete experience. Nice art, gameplay and sound, a real all round package. I did find a cheesy bug that let's you ignore the main mechanic, jumping doesn't seem to be affected by the stop caused by using the flashlight, but ignoring this bug it was a fun and interesting play. Some levels felt a little unfair because it was hard to use the flashlight to see what was coming though. Great job!

Developer

Thank you! I have only just noticed bugs now but I might come back and introduce new and exciting features down the line!

Really enjoyed this game, very simple but one of the few games that has kept the idea within scope haha. Well done! 

Developer

Thank you! :)

Great work, it's a really cool mechanic. I like the use of the glowing gems and torches to give hints to the layout of the levels. I could do with an easy mode with a little extra torch battery though!

Developer

Thank you! I might come back to this project after the Jam to improve on mechanics and implement more features and modes :)
