Congrats, well deserved :)

Wonderful job! I enjoyed this one very much, especially the visuals (color palette mainly) and sound design. 

Not gonna lie, the way the light moved had the same energy as the DVD logo bouncing in the corner, haha (look it up if you don't know what I'm talking about)

Thank you for noticing the palette in particular. I took great care and plenty of time to pick those colors.

Super super addictive game, perhaps the tightest game loop of the jam! My high score was 19! I found the spotlight to get extremely chaotic near the corners, I dunno of it was intentional but I know for me, whenever it neared one I was super nervous where it'd go!

Developer

The hitbox of the light is a diamond so in a corner it bounces of 2 walls in rapid succession.
That makes anticipating where it will go next a bit harder indeed.

PS: If you can get 19, you should be able to beat my 21 - I believe in you!

Very satisfying movement and gameplay! The color scheme and graphics are also nice. Great job!

Thank you for that nice comment.
Little easter egg: you can "upgrade" the graphics to a CRT mode by pressing "R".

This game is simple but in a good way.
Simple yet compelling game loop.
Simple yet appealing visuals.
Simple yet perfectly fitting soundscape.

A complete package, good job!

HI there,

really cool idea and arwork. It is nice to see a defined mechanic being implemented that well; it is so easy to understand what to do and despite its simplicity, challenging. The artwork is really damn cool with the choice of colors especially. I'll certainly watch out for more games from you

Thank you. I really took my time to pick a cool palette, so I appreciate you noticing the colors. 👍
