I like where this is going.  I think having the light ease in on the main menu would be nice; you have a super cool effect but having the light flash moving between button was a bit jarring.  Definitely interested in seeing more levels, keep it up!

i was using whats basically blender’s color ramp as a shader in godot. thats why its very pixleated. i was using hard cutoff. i could actually change it up a bit if i add a slight gradient i assume

Cool concept and visuals!

I really like the concept of this, I totally get running out of time to implement more levels. Something that I think this game would greatly benefit from would be coyote time. Look it up if you don't know what it is, it's a great way to help platformers to feel better.

Developer

i didnt have enough time to implement coyote time and jump buffering. the movement code is literally a slightly modified version of the charachterbody2d template code lol

I loved the main menu for this one, very creative. That being said, I don't know if this was an error on my side, but some of the buttons did nothing. 

Anyways, I like the concept and the visuals, but the controls and character movement felt a little slippery, making it harder to stay in the light sometimes. It is a little short, but can become a good full game. Good job :)

I can sense a good horror game idea from it. Funny how we both have exact opposite titles lol.

Very cool concept. I could see this as a full game.

Always love seeing the light creating shadows like that in game. Great use of it and great work. Great to see :)

This concept is really great… took me a minute to figure out what killed you… but I did in the end… you love to see this grow into a more complete game!
