Really cool idea the light was intuitive enough that a preview isn't necessary but it took me a while to figure out I should use my mouse to change the lights.
Also, a bug report if you want to keep working on the game I found you can move diagonally so on the final level I only had to change the lights once right at the end.

Amazing game with a very smart mechanic. The lights with the angles! AMAZING! Wish tit had mre levels

What a really cool idea! The light system was very intuitive and the shadows had predictable placement so it never felt frustrating. Excellent design!

Submitted

Wow that's reaaaally cool. Amazing concept and simplicity, I love it :D

This is an amazing game! I think that it would be nice to see what affect the lights have on the shadows and some of the lights get clipped out if not in fullscreen.

I dig it :)

What a clever puzzle game! Great execution too. I initially wanted a way to preview the light changes, but they seemed consistent enough to predict. I dig the bassoon in the music track too.

Developer

Yeaah. I'll add a preview next update. Thank you ๐Ÿ˜

The presentation is very neat! However, I think it'd be better if the player had some way of knowing for sure how the shadows will change when switching the lights. Right now, I was kind of hoping for the best when I was clicking on different lights and was never certain whether I was standing in the right spot. Maybe it's just me, though.

Oh yeah! Good idea! I'll add that next update. Thank you ๐Ÿ˜

Nice work, really liked the light puzzle thingy

And I totally think a biscuit counts :)

Developer

Very nice work, the puzzle aspect of the lights is great (even if as like the others, i did not see it at first).

My only comment would be that a simpler level before jumping into using the shadows would ease the progression.

Great job!

Developer

I was having a hard time designing levels but I'll add that. Thanks for the feedback ๐Ÿ˜

Great puzzle mechanics. I was initially confused about how to change the light because i didn't pay enough attention to the text. Perhaps shortcut keys for each light would be night, and you could put a letter notification next to each light so the player instantly visualizes how to control the lighting.

Developer

it was initially it was assign to a key but I changed it to a button. Maybe O'll keep both in the next update. Thanks for the feedback ๐Ÿ˜

Loved it! A nice bit of puzzle with shadows, initially I was confused with the lights... But got it eventually! Art is neat and I liked that animation(teleportation? Idk what to name it)..a good addition to the jam! 

Developer

Thank you! Maybe I'll call it Shadow Sneak like the attack on Pokemon ๐Ÿ˜‚
