Poor cat just wants to sleep. I crashed that level by pointing the mirror towards the top of the thing you need to burn and pulling the magnifying glass up there getting both the light from the window and the light from the mirror. Fun!

I tried for a long time to fix that bug but I had no clue what was causing it since all of Unity would crash. I suspected it was some sort of infinite loop in the reflecting raycast but even when I set a max-depth for reflections it was still crashing. I'm glad you still enjoyed it though, thanks for playing :)

Nice idea, but the control of the ray is a bit frustrating.

The cat's hissing sound is great 🤣

Thanks for the feedback :)
The magnifying glass and the mirror are 2 controls that I wanted to improve but ran out of time. In hindsight I think the mirror could have been better if I made a dead-zone towards the centre of rotation so that the movement is always somewhat precise. Something to keep in mind for next time.

Windows as a mechanic is shown poorly, but reflection is shown well. Great job!

I agree, I struggled for ideas this time but persevered nonetheless. Thanks for playing :)

Congratulations on 26th place! This is certainly not the top 10, but I think that is also a good result.

I really enjoyed this. The cat level was awesome and kitty waking up and sound made me laugh a lot before finding the correct moves. This game's puzzles also have an educational value in my opinion. Could teach people how the light interacts with different surfaces and/or materials in a playful way. Well done!
