Art drew me in, reminded me of a classic flash game :D I wish the "mode" aspect was integrated in a more interactable way, but I think the platforming aspect of this is done well! The lasers also led to some interesting unique mechanic, would love to see this fleshed out into a longer game!

How does your game represent Mode?
The core mechanic of the game is that the light switches to two different modes (on and off).

The art is cool, I liked the level of detail in the game. The sound didn't work for me (on downloaded version), while the other games I've been playing did work. I don't know what could be the issue. The final puzzle was intense, it took me quite a bit, haha.
Very good job!

SKATERWITCHLoved Stache and the different cards shown after dying. Agreed with some of the other players that automatically respawning you after death would help streamline the experience. I liked the lasers and how they tied in with the lights and would've liked to have seen more ideas explored in that way.

MODEGUY2000Would be nice if there's some indicator before light is going off/on like a slight flicker with sfx, especially there're some mechanic directly tied to that timing (the laser)
I love the stache guy, he's cute. I also enjoy the death screen being different based on what killed him, but a quick respawn would be nice to have, it's a bit tedious to move from wasd+space to mouse back and forth every time I make a bad jump. Double jump is sometimes a bit unresponsive?
But overall, very charming. Good job.

Legend of Lu: RemasteredThat boulder fell right on my head. Did you do the music? It's very nice. Also nice touch on showing different images depending on how you die. The double jump float in between two lasers with the moving platforms was challenging. I had fun with it!

Sugar RushI enjoyed this one quite a bit, good stuff! looks and sounds great also

Little StitchesLight Mode Action was a neat play on the theme! It's interesting that the mode is something that you have to play around instead of controlling it yourself. I thought the difficulty was fair and enjoyable! I'd love to see what other light-based mechanics you could come up with. Did you have any in mind that you would've included if you had more time?

SLUG MODEI thought this was just a brutally difficult platformer until I read the comments regarding double jump, haha. I wasn't able to get past the lasers without it :)
Nice job on the atmosphere of the game here!

Context CatacombsLove the aesthetic! It took me a while to realize there's a double jump but I was able to make it to the end. Short and sweet, well done!

Biggie BlasterLovely character, the on and off light goes really well with this kind of platformer.
I liked the details like objects moving when you go through them and the custom death screens.
I couldn't get past the laser part it was a bit too hard for me and wish I could've played more
Great entry, congratulations!
