A really creative concept, the music is great, and I like the character designs!

Interesting idea. Murderer waiting to act until night is a clever approach to ON/OFF theme. On the other side I have a feeling the game is not polished. On first try I got 2 actors killed and then got 3 points, every other try I moved all actors to the edge of game and nothing happened even after some time. Maybe is this issue Firefox-specific?
Thanks for the feedback. There was more I wanted to do with the game but I ran out of time.
I think you found a bug, because I am able reproduce the same outcome in Firefox and Chrome by taking a character too far off the bottom of the screen. I wrote code for detecting borders but the bottom border never worked, however previously it wouldn't stop game continuance but I see now that it does. Next time I release a more polished version I'll fix the issue.
Nice game a it fits the theme well but i was a bit unsure as to what was happening
Fits the theme very well. Would like to see different characters as the murderer.
I like the idea but have some problems to actually control the characters. Anyway the direction is good, please keep working on it after the rating phase of the jam is completed!
This appears to work as intended, but I'm afraid I can't see any real strategy in it. You get barely any time to identify who you're controlling at the start, and then once the light's off there isn't really anything you can do. It's also impossible to tell what's going on in the darkness - some sound would really help there. Still, it definitely fits within the Jam restrictions and it's an interesting take on the theme.
