This has so much charm!  There were a few areas where I had trouble making sense of how the light moved, it really seemed to flip out a lot.  Also, I find when text expands from the center really hard to read, esp when there isn't a way to make to flash-finish.  This was still a solid entry, nice work!

Related, I find myself humming the tune randomly now.

This has a lot of promise, I had a hard time with the controls and wish I could have moved left and right to the arrow keys. I was unable to make the long jump in the second area so that is as far as I got. The music was nice, but it would have been nice to be able to lower the volume in game.

it is bit unclear where you can jump. light areas are quite big and come suddenly. maybe have some indication what areas will have light at some point to indicate it is dangerous. maybe have grass showing there as indication of melting snow and spring coming. I like the simple nature of the game though.

The vibes on this one are immaculate. This is so cute, I loved the graphics and overall style. All good choices. 

I have just a little complaint: after some levels, the gameplay felt a little boring to me and the it all became a little samey. I couldn't finish it all. But that is the only negative thing I can say, this game is super nice :)

This was a really cute game! Loved the graphics, they looked super polished and cute! The sound design also matched the vibe of the game very well :) Overall a super great game!

I played through all the levels and had some fun. Sometimes the light seemed to behave a bit unexpectedly e.g. on one of the levels the light went behind the rock but it didn't go dark. Other than that, you did a good job and I liked the graphics!
