Art was great and the music matched it perfectly and really put the whole game together. Loved the direction you took here!

+ Love the art style
+ Interesting idea for a game
+ Loved the chilled music and sound effects

- The jump was a little floaty for my liking
- There seems to be a bug where you can cling to the side of platforms?
- I think that the user should really be more visible at all times

Wonderful game!! Innovative ideas paired with gameplay that asks the player to solve treacherous puzzles. Brilliant!

Wow, this game is fantastic! The way the light works is great, you can't see the obstacles when it's bright and you can't quite see the floor when it's dark. I find this balance interesting and I like it. Looking forward to future updates! Also, the music is amazing :)

Love it. Great entry. The music feels nice. The fact that you can see 1 layer of objects is really smart.

Great game. I love a tough platformer. The music was really nice and I thought the visuals were really cute too. The level design was great and I thought the idea of only showing parts of a level was a great idea and implemented really well.

I think the moving obstacles were a little hard to track in the changing scene. Maybe some particle effects to show rough location or giving the player the ability to control what they can see may help?

I would also suggest for any platformer to read this thread by the creator of Celeste. He talks about some game feel things like jump buffering and coyote time that make a character feel better to control. Just something to consider :)

A little confused at first, but after a few plays I learned . Good music too.

I really liked the idea! It takes awhile to get used to but after awhile I learnt to just wait till it dims. Love the music too. Good job!

Nicely done!

I like the glow effect added to some of the objects and the fade out and in idea is awesome. The music fit perfectly and gave the game a very relaxing, but almost eerie vibe.

Level length also felt just right

It felt like the player "hit box" was a little larger than it should have been though, I kept bumping into pointy things even though I felt that I shouldn't have.

The player character also felt a little unresponsive at times - but I've noticed most of the games feel this way when played in a browser, so it could just be that.

Overall - awesome job, keep it up!

Very clever use of the theme, I love it !!!!

Submitted(+2)

Nice take on the theme. It took me a few minutes to understand the concept, I believe because the lighting and object fading don't sync perfectly (right?). Also a bit slow-paced for a platformer in my humble opinion. Very interesting overall and a core mechanic with a lot of potential, good work.

amazing
