In the beginning it was hard to get used to the controls and get the knack of the game. But after dozens of falls it started being quite fun. The concept is very interesting and the game is definitely challenging.

It would have been cool to make a little tutorial Level to get the controls :-)
I really liked the fact that connecting more wires into the light bulb it's making more Light in the game.
I'm not sure this should stay as a platformer tho. Would be maybe nice as a top down game as well I can imagine.
Nice concept.
For the next time don't forget for us it's first time we play the game so it is always good to explain the controls and make an easier level at start to understand the core concept :-)
Nice visuals and music by the way the fit well together which is a rare thing into jams so far.
Cheers,

SPACELINKSThe world is dark and there is nothing beneath it. I know this because I can't see very far and also because I've fallen 26 times. I have began to understand that you can rope with a click and that I can dangle with the hook so I don't have to jump into the deep dark bellow, I am starting to connect the dots very literally.
13 falls later I now can see the trail of light I have left. I swing from the light into the final platform just a jump shy of the final node, I can already taste my victory. I am the light and nothing will get in my way. The trail is connected and as the world zooms out I see the connections make a smiley face. I am Shokey Bulb Jr. and this is my domain! Victory is short lived...
There is no floor. I know this because I have fallen and its dark. Who knows how many falls await but victory shall once more be mine.
This is game is very hard but once you get a grasp of the controls its super satisfying to play through. I think if the ropes levels came out quicker it would be a lot easier to play but this was actually very fun to play through.

Slider - Jam VersionYou should release the music, I love it. If you can make your own art to suit the theme of the game, that would be even better. The controls take some time to familiarize though. Interesting concept, well done!
