Really good usage of the theme !
It just miss some ambient music and some more sound effects and it would be awesome !

The lack of sounds is a bit strange, make me feel like not in the game. Also some jumps feels unfair and the last part is weird, i getted a bit lost. Overall a fun game and a great idea! 

If u can also play our submission: https://itch.io/jam/lux-jam/rate/583994 and let some feeback we would appreciate it so much! Thx!

Cute little game!

Having to move the mouse around to look around edges and stuff with the candle felt really good. I think it could have benefited from being a bit longer; Not at the end - I felt that was hard enough, but maybe some simpler play at the beginning - some really obvious/easy stuff just so people could get used to the controls and idea.

My only critiques would be that not knowing where the mouse cursor was when the light was off or it was being geometry felt awkward. I feel like it's position should still have always been known, so I could have prepared more when using it sparingly. It was quite tricky in parts, but I think that was good. It could have benefited from some easier intro stuff at the beginning though so people could better understand the concepts before coming across the trickier platforming.

All in all though, a cute little game. Very neat!

thank you for the pointers!

Great for the theme, but I didn't really like the candle fuel running out.

Brilliant!  Just... brilliant! :D   And I love the character art!  :D

I really liked your concept, even if I had hard time with the jump and platform (but It is kind of my fault also, I'm not the best with platformer x) ). The work on the light system is lovely ! 

Conclusion : Really nice game !

Submitted

This is perfect execution on the concept, you get 5 starts for that, the mechanics were intuitive, and the game stroke that perfect balance of challenge without being too difficult.

Very clever mechanics. Somewhat frustrating, but overall neat to play.

Bravo, i'm digging this, simple but great.

Very pretty and cool but seems a bit broken - when reaching 0 timer, it doesn't respawn at checkpoint :[

Developer

hello! yes i made the timer as your candle fuel. you can run out of candle light but still make the last bit of the level if you remember how to get to the next checkpoint! so you can turn off the candle to save some precious time on your candle
