Really nicely done - I liked it a lot! I played through quite a ways until I died - restarting from beginning was a pretty harsh penalty. Some sort of checkpoint system would be good. Some ambient background music would really add a lot, too.

The game looks great and was interesting to play. Very nice for 10 hours of effort.

Very nice game. Almost unbelievable that it was made in 10 hours. I found that the little jumping dudes were a bit tricky to handle and they were a bit glitchy (Two touching ball things could jump multiple times as long as they keep touching).

Very pretty. I liked the overall tone of the game.

Really cool and interesting game. I like the indirect mechanic of directing the dorfs by pointing your light. Your lighting system is (of course) awesome. I like the flavour of the graphics overall, they are consistent and simple, appropriate for an LD. Excellent game.

Thanks! I agree with you about a check point system but I was extremely pressed for time. Hopefully it's a short enough game that it wont be too big an issue. I just put up an enhanced version with a bit more polish and some bug fixes including the multi jump bug. I'd like to get some ambient music in soon but still haven't decided on that yet.

Gorgeous lighting. I liked the indirect control mechanic for the shooty things. Just ten hours?! Wow! Overall an excellent entry, really captures the theme.
