Iām talking more about the game feel, i.e. how fast you can switch between āstatesā of light there. In your game it doesnāt really feel like Iām hiding the light when I let go of a button because it shrinks too slowly. So Iām better of just being careful with movement.
But also that the states serve quite different functions: normal states letās you see in some radius around you, you can focus (enlarge) the light into a cone to see further but also interact with puzzle objects, and you can hide (shrink) the light so that enemies donāt see you but you also donāt see much.
