Love this game it's super clear and very intuitive and well designed

Wow, this is really good! I really liked this, would definitely play it as a full game. You hit a really delicate balance between the puzzle and platformer aspects. I definitely think there's a great deal of potential here, and what's already here is great. Very nicely done.

I played this game along the stream of winged and this feels so satisfying. The mechanic feels pretty nice, the sound effects are nice and I liked the little hints you have put here and there. Also its very polished too and the speed run option gave another layer of gameplay. Thanks that it was not too hard, normally I struggle in these games.

Good Job!

Neat mechanisms and cool level design! Thanks for sharing!

Quite a fun game to play with a strong connection to, and good use of the theme. The game was easy to control, but it would have been more visually cohesive, and added a degree of challenge, to have a some kind of reticle attached to the character that would have to be used for aiming the light. Visually everything in the game (aside from the mouse pointer) felt natural to the environments presented, but the audio (sfx) could be better developed. The music created a nice setting in which to play the game.

A simple game competently made, though it was easy to ignore the lighting.

I think the two of you could go much higher, so come back again in January.

Fun game, with cool mechanics. The maze level was quite confusing for me, but I managed to complete it quite quickly. I would add a way to reset the level (i.e. dying) as the platforms too a long time to cycle through their animation before coming back. Overall a decent and fun platformer!

Thanks for playing!
There is a (slightly) hidden keybind to restart the level. It is Middle-Mouse-Click by default, but can be changed in the accessibility settings.
You can also restart a level from the pause menu, which is available by pressing Escape, although this has the unintended consequence of exiting fullscreen in the browser, requiring you to press Escape again to pause.

Ah, cool, I didn't check the keybinds, thanks for the tip.

Impressively polished, the main menu with a lot of options, in game tutorial,puzzles with increasing dificulty, my favorite so far. Good job!

We totally agree! Our friend told us the same 😂. We tried to keep the game short enough to be completed for reviews/speedrunning, while aiming for good level design, with the caveat of leaving some people wanting more 😁

Very fun puzzle game. Sound design helped make some puzzles very satisfying, ie. bouncing back and forth on the mirrors. Good stuff

Very fun. Don't think it has the strongest tie to the theme, but an excellent entry nonetheless. The puzzle pacing is good. I never felt it was introducing concepts too fast or too slow.


Scratches the same itch that Portal does.


Great job!
