- GDD: Nice to see images in game mechanics. Would love to more images. Glad to see minimum viable product & future plans. Game: Splash screen is good! Glad to see setting menu! Pause menu is working, but I noticed the text is running in the background? (possible visual glitch?) Game loop is feeling good. Little slow but probably due to the virtual machine that I am running. Would love to see gamepad support. Theme is little uncertainly, but I can see with "spreading light" as an theme, but that is honestly not really aligned with theme I had expected.

Tell us about your game!
Light Trail is a 3D puzzle game where the player must find lost fireflies and restore the light. Might sound like an easy task but it's not, especially when the evil shadows are lurking in the dark.
Move with WASD.
Collect fireflies by walking into them.
Deposit them to a lamp post by walking in front of it.
Walk into obstacles (the big stones) to push them.
Don't let the shadows touch you!
Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
Yes
Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes
Extra Notes
There are some minor issues in the game that we know of and we plan to continue developing Light Trail in the near future.

this is a very nicely polished puzzle game. I also like your interpretation of the theme! The mood and lighting are the best ive seen so far. Your ability to craft a mood is something you should be proud of!
I had a bug unfortunately on the 3rd level where the screen would nonstop blink black for the transition, but a great working prototype and you even included a tutorial of sorts. Nice work! :)
Thank you! The mood was one of our main focuses, glad it turned out ok :)
Thanks for the bug report, we'll take a look at it 👍
Very cute game. Visuals are very nice, good level difficulty progression. Tried to push a shadow off the world with a block, but sadly didn't work :-D
Had one maybe-bug? I delivered the fireflies and then shortly after got caught by a shadow so got the "try again" screen, but it dd advance to the next level for me.
Great job for 2 weeks work!
Thank you for the kind words and thanks for playing! Yeah the interactions with the shadows are a bit clunky, they need more love than what we had time to give 'em. Thanks for the bug report, we'll get on that once we've recovered from the, totally self inflicted, last-few-days-remaining crunch :D
