Took me several tries, but managed to complete it. Kind of walking blindly on some screens.

Nice work!

Cool game ! Well done !

An interesting idea, letting the enemies also be a source of light. I think making the enemies' projectiles also glow would also help!

Really tough game, the pixel art is beautiful!  A platformer where you have to mentally map the level through trial and error because you can't see is cool!

Submitted(+3)

Loved the presentation, looked and sounded great! The mechanic was good fun too, would have loved to see a few more levels!

Submitted(+2)

Awesome art and music, I really liked how a lot of the level was dark and the platforms were almost invisible, it really sold me the feeling of stealing the light!

I love the visual style, take on the theme, level design, and core gameplay. My only note is that respawning all the way back at the start when you die is pretty punishing. But otherwise I think there is a lot of potential for expansion here!

Interesting concept and cool music. I also like the Color pallet! :D

I had a lot of fun with this one! Loved the art and concept of the game. Great music too.

Very interesting! The gameplay doesn’t really do much with the core concept of destroying light other than the enemies being “light”, but I’m intrigued by what that would look like.

Really cute visual presentation with a unique concept! The music was also unique and fit the ambience quite well. I do think it's a shame that you die in one hit and have to start over from the beginning again, because it makes the game quite hard. But overall very fun!

This was a great little game, nice use of the theme. The music and animation was really nice :)

Nice game with old school feeling and its own atmosphere. A checkpoint in the 3rd or 4th level would have been nice. Or adding lives are restarting the last level as long as you have a life left. Else well done!

It's a great game 5 out of 5! 

The graphics are really cool and the level is balanced pretty well! I killed an enemy through the walls somehow, I don't know if that was intended but it helped me to survive haha!

Amazing game! Had a lot of fun playing, Would be pretty cool if it had more level (please tell me you want to make some more post jam, then I will add it to my collection)

Very good game and interesting mechanics. But every time I die I have to restart the whole game which can be frustrating a lot of the times.

Submitted(+2)

Interesting concept. The art and music were really nice. A little in game tutorial would have been nice but it's still fine. One thing that I would recommend is, if possible, once the player dies, instead of restarting the entire game, restart just the level. Other than that, a really enjoyable game!

Loved the art and the concept. Though it was a bit confusing at first, I did end up finishing it. I like the idea overall, though it could've benefitted from checkpoints, or maybe even just being able to restart by pressing the spacebar. Having to reach over to my mouse every time just for that got a bit frustrating. Also it is basically possible to just run to the light shells, then to the exit and ignore the other mobs as they won't be able to hit you at all. If that was intentional then I commend you because I had a lot of fun doing that XD. Overall an enjoyable experience. Would love to see more levels!
