Connection to the theme seems a bit light, but aside from that: solid game! :) The visuals feel very "Limbo"-esque, but I guess the minimal black-and-white aesthetic makes it a good choice for jams, and the music complements it nicely. I stopped playing when I reached the rotating stones, though. I get how you're supposed to solve the puzzle there, but didn't feel too motivated doing it with that somewhat awkward jump. Adding a long wind up before each jump might have been a design decision, but none that I particularly dig or saw any real need for up until that point.

Game Description
In "Lumina", players find themselves in the shoes of Lumina, a young girl that finds herself lost in a mysterious dark forest. With nothing but a flashlight on hand, Lumina must navigate the forest using her light to activate soul lanterns scattered throughout in order to interact with the environment. Throughout her journey, Lumina will have to solve puzzles, stealthily avoid lurking monsters, and tackle challenging platforming sequences. This game promises a short but sweet blend of suspense, strategy, and adventure.
