  • Wall Kick had some issues working at first. Overall the game was mostly just a standard platformer.
  • Love the concept! I'd love to see you expand the world/lore of this game. The platforming was pretty satisfying and the throwable lights are a interesting way to make "platforming while blind" more fun and exploratory. Criticism: - (small) unifying the controls so the player can click on interactable objects instead of needing a dedicated key for it would make for a simpler control scheme. - the wall jump can be kind of "jerky" in some places - there's not really any indication whether an area below the player is going to kill them or not. In some ways this was good because it makes exploring downward exciting because you want to be careful.. but my first death in the starting area was due to walking into the pit on purpose because I threw a light down there and didn't see anything dangerous. That experience of "oh. I guess that kills me" when there was nothing to tell me danger was near can be frustrating.
