A really great game !
I really like the character's eyes.
Very good job !
PS : I used a similar concept in my game, but in a hardcore version ( since you can't stay on the platforms when they disappear )...
"Did I mention there are no checkpoints and the game doesn't save? Well, anyways, good luck!" - I laughed out loud at the part, very honest!
What a beautiful execution of a simple concept! It's one of the best "lights on/off, hide platforms" mechanics in the jam, really nice. And the jumping/controls feel very good. Thanks for sharing!
And if you haven't had a chance to check out my game Foxy Boom Boxy, I would appreciate any feedback, thanks!
Here's my playthrough of your game. Go to the 2:13 mark to see it:
I haven't found the secret level, unfortunately. If I do, I'll make a video of it.
Okay, maybe I should have put the entrance to my secret level somewhere more obvious.
Its in a random pit in Stage 4, find it if you want.
Also my previous offer still stands.
Secret level:
I found the secret exit and what the secret stage contains and will make a video of it. I'll also include the alternate exit from stage 4.
👍
This was fun; it's a competent execution of the switching invisible platform genre. The character is also very cute. Good work!
Really enjoyed playing this game ! :D
i was able to beat the game and finish all the levels ! B)
if you can replace the G sprite with a door sprite would be cool :D
the background colors hurt the eyes to look at <.>
Overall, great job !
Short and simple game. I liked it. I also love how you can see the character's eyes when it is dark and how turning the light on or off doesn't get rid of the platforms.
very well done the eyes on the character is so cute p.s pls play my game https://coolcodedude.itch.io/a-light-in-the-dark ratings are greatly appreciated
I've come across several games with similar mechanics, but I genuinely had a good time playing yours. In terms of feedback, enhancing the graphics and crafting a well-designed main menu could further improve your game's appeal. Additionally, the music can be a bit bothersome; it might be worth considering a change or providing an option to toggle it off. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the feedback.
Fun game! The eyes staying visible in the dark is especially cute. I think the level design can be consolidated to a few strong puzzles, but otherwise it's a good entry! Please give my game a play as well, when you have the time. Good job! :D
Fun game, it is kinda like the first idea I thought of; then I changed my mind because I didn't have much time to spare. Good luck with your game :)
A fun simple game with great potential. I like how you used the on / off theme. I hope you update it because I would totally play a it in the future.
Overall pretty cool game.
Working on it
would you like me to tell you when the update is ready?
Yes Definitely
Ok. If you want a progress report, now I'm taking a break from development of the game, but I do have 3 new levels completed. Also, I plan on doing a light revision on most of the graphics. That's all I have for now.
goodluck
Fun little Super Mario World-type invisible block game. When you fall and die the fall felt way too long. Also, restarting all the way at the beginning felt a bit punitive. But overall I had fun and would play a more polished version in the future.
Thanks for the feedback!
Also I don't get what you mean about the game being similar to SMW, but maybe I forgot about a level.
I really liked it, but the fact that the character is so advanced on the screen sometimes causes a bit of discomfort, but the rest is a lot of fun, I had a great time.
I finished it without dying by taking my time. You've got a cool concept, simple, effective, and very expandable! Cool game!
Not bad, simple, but enjoyable! Not much to say, it works really well for what it wants to achieve. Not the prettiest game in the world, but it is consistent and there is a nice contrast with the platforms. All in all solid entry
Nice use of the theme and great attention to detail! The feel of the gravity and character movement was great, though I would have liked some Coyote Time to help with the platforming. I also couldn't use Escape to exit the game, even when I went back to the main menu.
The eyes moving was a great touch!
Finished on the first try. I'm waiting for the leaderboard and the timer. Cool game bro.
Would you like me to tell you when the update is ready?
First to find the secret level gets a thumbs up.
