This game looks good with the painting style graphics. Adding a tutorial at the start would make it better.

Really interesting concept. I like the idea of two flashlights that delete or add platforms, that's a cool idea. Also the game is absolutely gorgeous. Love the art and love the lighting you guys have.  Really nailed that. I skipped over the broken level though you might mention that on this page as well as the game page. For me the platforming was a little too hard, it's pretty brutal to combine both puzzle and super tight platforming because it's not clear if I'm failing at logic of skill.  Or at least there could be a slower ramp. I really like what you are doing and honestly I feel the mechanic is cool enough it's underutilizing it to put it in a skill platformer I think this would be super cool in Something like a prince of Persia 2d style game or something. Music was pretty fun though a little repetitious and I would have liked some other sound effects. Also on one level I just kept dying, not sure what happened there. This is a pretty good concept game.
